Sneak Peek: Baby Samuel

Okay, I must confess... there's not much "sneak" to this peek. I've been running a bit behind so little Sammy's parents will receive their full gallery shortly. I'm hoping to be completely caught up and back on time by this weekend! In the meantime though, check out this cutie:

Sneak Peek: Baby Juliet

Little Juliet was still fresh to the world when we did her newborn session a couple of weeks ago. Perfect timing! You can just tell that mom and dad are enthralled with their new arrival. And Juliet was just as sweet as could be.

Mom wore this scarf in her maternity session (here). We thought it would be fun to recreate some of the maternity shots with Juliet now in them.






She must be having some sweet, milk-filled dreams.

Doesn't she look wide-eyed and ready to meet the world?

Sorry your sneak peek is late, R&T, but I hope you enjoy it. I'm just about done with your session so be on the lookout for your full gallery in the next day or so.

Holiday Cards!

If you missed my holiday mini-sessions, that doesn't mean you have to miss out on all the fun. I have lots of cute holiday card designs this year and you can use a photo from any 2008 session with me to make yours. These designs are especially gorgeous and impressive press printed on heavy quality cardstock. Here are just a few design examples:

When Photographers Get Together...

Lots of photos are sure to follow! I recently had the opportunity to meet several other local photographers for a morning of fun, photography, and getting to know one another. We had lots of models (aka our kids) and some very cool urban locations to play with. Here are a few of the results.



(Recognize this next little face?)




Sneak Peek: R Family Maternity

Dylan's friend, little J-M, is about to become a big sister. Will Baby R be a boy or a girl? Guess we'll just have to wait and see! But boy or girl, this is one lucky baby to be joining such a sweet, loving family.
