So the dear hubby, being a fellow HOUSE fan, text messages me about an article he had read online.  What made it interesting, besides it being about a SEASON FINALE on a show we (try our hardest) to watch religiously, is that it was ALL SHOT on a Canon 5dMii.

WHAT?!?! A DSLR???

YUP!

Now, how cool is that. You go Canon with your bad self!  Here is the article if you’re interested!

In OTHER news, look what I have coming up.  Two newborns, a 2 year old and a 7 year old, all from the wonderful city of Riverside! Yup, I had a great opportunity to capture some beautiful children 1 1/2 hour drive north of me.  So if you’re in the Riverside area, and wish to have a session with me, let me know! I’d love to make another trip up.

What a doll!! For being 3 weeks old, she was super tiny and was made my job COMPLETELY easy. She slept as soon as I got there, didn’t soil a single item, and STAYED asleep even after I left.  She is precious in every way. From the tiny toes, to the sweet rosy lips, I couldn’t get my camera off of her. She is the ying to the yang, as she is the 3rd of 3 girls.  It was great to meet the older sisters as they showed pure energy and excitement for their baby sister.  As I spoke with Dad, he told me they were trying for a boy, and were happily given 3 girls.  Jokingly I replied, “3 stikes’, and he smiled and said…’more like homeruns’! HOW SWEET!!

Mom and Dad, enjoy your teasers!

With great pleasure, I had the opportunity to photograph a boy named Jake.  Oh how tiny this little boy is! With his wee self came with a wee squeak which was just so darn cute! Granted he was breech, this made for a very curly baby! FUN! It was a full house there, with grandma and grandpa coming all the way from Philadelphia to visit.  I’m so happy the weather is just beautiful for them.  Maybe, JUST maybe, this WILL want them to move out to San Diego, right Lauren? Even though that’s just icing on the cake since Jake is here! hehe.

I can’t share too much since we are planning to create some birth announcements and I would hate to spoil it!  Thanks Lauren for having me over to meet Jake, you and the family.  I couldn’t ask for a more smaller, sleepier and curly little baby.

and because I REALLY had to show of this OH SO CUTE hat that Grandma made!!!

I had the honor today to photograph this little handsome boy named Tyler.  For him being 4 weeks old, he was a sleeper.  I’m sure the yummy 4 ounces he drank prior to my arrival, and another 4 ounces during helped me a little bit! His older brother, Brian was so much fun to play with also.  I just LOVED how curly his hair was.  Full of smiles, and fun to talk to, the little 7 year old just couldn’t keep his eyes off his brother. I can’t even imagine how much those two will have once Tyler starts interacting with him.

Thank you Tipa for having me over today. I enjoyed meeting the family and I hope you enjoy the photos!

So my little Kayla has already turned 11 months old BEFORE I posted her 1o month photos. What kind of bad mother am I? At least I had already taken the photos, right?! LOL.  She has amazed me with how fast her little mind is growing. She repeats a lot of the sounds she hears, responds to her name with a loud, “EH?!” and is just IN LOVE with Keoni. Those two are just a riot to watch. I hope this bond will last a lifetime!

She was such a trooper during this little mini session.  It was raining all day, but I NEEDED to get these done.  I also was on the lookout for a field of wild flowers. Paul and I had packed the kids, grabbed the iphone, and looked around in a location, I *thought* would have what I’m looking for.  Low and behold, what I was looking for was just on the other side of the hill from where I exit the freeway! I see so much potential here, I’m excited! The ONLY downfall is that it’s a horse trail..and well, we must watch out for surprises! LOL. If I go high enough on the hill, the trail is far away!

Now..must start planning her first birthday party! EEKS!

My first baby girl of the year! Remember THIS belly? Yup, this is her.  I’ve been waiting as patient as I can for Baby Abby’s arrival (being 1 week late and all).  She was the sweetest and curliest 9 day old, I couldn’t stop taking pictures of her. I kept telling Sharon that I was COMPLETELY jealous of all that hair Abigail had.  At a whopping 10 months Kayla has less hair than Abby at 9 days! SO NOT FAIR!

Sharon and Kyle (and Hosky)…CONGRATS! Baby Abigail is simply beautiful.  Here are you teasers.

With the weather being down and out, I was sad that MAYBE I wasn’t going to be able to photograph my first newborn of 2010.  Mother Earth could just NOT let this happen and gave me light through the rainy clouds to shoot Baby Aiden. He is one of my older newborns, at a whopping 3 weeks, and was just perfect in every way! I love how he fell asleep as soon as I got there and let me do as I please.   Such an awesome boy!

In March, I get to see this young man and his mommy and daddy again as Daddy is going on his second deployment to Iraq. Thank you Daddy so much for fighting for our freedom.  My family thanks you! I can’t wait to see how much Aiden has grown by then!

For now, let’s relish in the moments of newness and embrace the tiny fingers and toes before he grows way too fast.  It happens, unfortunately . Here are your teasers!

I’m starting to get angry about how time is taking my little girl away.  She’s becoming more and more independent, it’s hard to believe that she was a newborn just a few months ago.  I think Kayla has mastered the art of crawling with a snack in hand.  She doesn’t quite crawl on both hands and knees.  What she does is one hand, two knees, and well, and elbow.  It’s enough for her to get her from point a to point b; and just in case something happens along the way, she’s set with food. LOL  She also can pull herself up. I can tell she prefers to grab me by the hands and take off ‘running’ than her modified crawling.  She’s slowly getting her balance and can briefly stand on her own! YES, I’m not ready for this!

ChubChub, slow down on the growing, will ya?!

I just love how Keoni is never too far and is ALWAYS watching over her. It melts my heart.

Today I had the honor of photographing a beautiful, blue-eyed boy by the name of Walter. He is the sweetest little 4 weeker my camera has has laid her lens on! I can’t rave enough how nice he was to me AT 4 WEEKS! Yes, Liz, I was really nervous about this, but I’m proud to say, Ennis, told ya we’d get him to sleep!

As I was cleaning up in the room, I started to hear beautiful music coming from their living room! As I slowly crept out of the nursery, I saw this BEAUTIFUL grand piano! Oh how I miss playing the piano. My heart just melted. Ennis told me the story of his childhood piano and how they got this new one from his father. I could sit next to them for hours as he played. Maybe it’s time to get my rusty fingers onto my own piano! LOL.

Liz and Ennis, it was truly a pleasure to meet you and Baby Walter. Thank you Ennis for protecting our freedom, and I would hate to see you guys leave in July! Here are your teasers!

Eight is another number closer to 12! I don’t understand why 12 keeps getting closer. 12 equals 1…YES! ONE!  I can’t imagine my baby girl turning ONE!!!!

Though she actually turned 8 months old on Thanksgiving day, we wanted to do something special just for US.  San Diego doesn’t typically show it’s Seasons.  I mean, we wear flipflops ALL YEAR LONG.  LOL.  One place I do know where you can tell it’s Autumn is at the beautiful Old Poway Park.  We enjoyed the day sitting in the grass with our packed lunch and soaked up the nice cool breeze.  I couldn’t have asked for a better day to spend it with MY family.  The family my HUSBAND and I created.  It’s an amazing feeling.  Through all the tough days being a parent has to offer, this by far makes it all worth it and them some!

Kayla, as much as I hate you growing up, you’re are growing up BEAUTIFULLY inside and out.  There isn’t a day you dont make my heart melt.  You and your brother (and yes, your daddy too) make my life complete and I can’t ask for anything more..

Ok. I’m done being all ‘Hallmark’!
