Sneak Peek, Seth celebrates his first birthday on the beach in Naples!

July 19, 2008 – 9:09 pm

I believe I can fly…

I had my first opportunity to meet this little guy last year ….

Little Seth was so tiny he curled up in the palms of Daddy’s hands just perfectly, what a little sweetheart! Needless to say, when his Mommy called to book his 1 year session I jumped at the chance, there is something so special about having the opportunity to capture a sweet little soul when they’re first born and then having the honor of visiting with them again as they hit that milestone first birthday! They grow so quickly as it is but that first year goes by in a blink of an eye, it never ceases to amaze me how much they change in such a short period of time.

I am so NOT a foot person, ok, that’s putting it mildly. Yet for some reason I totally adore baby toes! I’m also a huge fan of tubby baby Buddha bellies, which means it was only natural for me to instantly fall in love with this shot.

Future heartbreaker alert – check out those baby blues!!

Yep – The salt water is fun but I’m guessing from the look on his face it’s not all the tasty!

Sneak Peek, Jake & Luke visit Pelican Bay in Naples

June 19, 2008 – 3:34 pm

I just adore these two little guys. Mom & Dad are just as much fun as their boys, up for anything, “Just do your thing” she tells me. I love to do my thing…

So what do ya think Mom? Not too shabby if I do say so myself. I hope the boys picked out super prizes from Target, they were FAN-TAS-TIC!! Proofs will be ready VERY soon!!!

I just adored how little Luke would stand on his tippy-toes, grab Daddy’s head with both hands and plant a kiss right on it. So sweet!

I have a feeling I’m about to get wet! ha ha ha

Well, if there is one thing you can say about a beach session with me, it’s never dull.

Sharks in the waters of Sanibel Island?!

May 28, 2008 – 9:43 am

hee hee made ya look! Ok, not really a shark. Just a happy little dolphin swimming close to shore. I would’ve preferred to have caught him mid jump with the family looking on but it just wasn’t in the stars that day. Still, I hope this image will bring back sweet memories for an adorable Indianapolis family. Little Mika clearly has Mommy & Daddy wrapped around her finger. Five minutes with her and you can understand why!

Sneak Peek, Jake and Sam

May 21, 2008 – 3:48 pm

From Michigan to Naples…that’s a long trip! Mom has been so patient with my while I played catch up thanks to computer mishaps and workshops on the other side of the country… Of course I’m rushing to get caught up, clients are patiently waiting for their proofs and, of course, my OTHER computer is acting like a slug. Not the one that just crashed, my editing pc. Adobe bridge has crashed at least 6 times today, I’ve rebooted, cleared the cache, reset the ram usage…etc and so on. Just one more session to go and I will be officially “caught up” but it seems as though my PC has it in for me. I will not go MAC, I refuse! So, when you’re done looking at these most adorable little guys and your surfing on your computer worry-free, you might want to stop by this site, have a little chuckle and then beam me a little happy pc mojo please. Much appreciated! Everything you ever wanted to know about Murphy’s Law.

This is Jake. Jake is a ham, he had me cracking up with his air guitar and dance moves.

Jake & Mommy

This is Sam. Sam is a wee bit more cautious than Jake and therefore was not 100% sure he wanted to be my new friend. That’s ok though, he decided to do his own thing and I was perfectly content to step back and just capture him being who he is.

Sam & Daddy

Sneak Peek, Charlotte

May 15, 2008 – 4:51 pm

Every so often I’m lucky enough to work with a child that who really does make my job easy. Charlotte was one of those babies. She was all smiles from the first moment we met, only protesting slightly when Mom changed her clothes. Then, right back to those big, toothless, baby grins. Gosh I love her!

Come back and see me a-n-y-t-i-m-e Charlotte, seriously! I could photograph her any day of the week, twice on Sundays!

Sneak Peek, Grace

May 13, 2008 – 1:47 pm

Meet Grace, we had so much fun playing at the Sanibel Lighthouse together. This little sweetheart has the most contagious smile and a heart of pure gold.

Mom and Dad, proofs will be ready real soon!

Sneak Peek, Chelsea & Hayden {Happy Accidents}

April 26, 2008 – 9:41 am

I’ve been a lover of photography all of my life and a student of photography for more than 11 years. I’d like to tell you that I go into each session with a plan, that I can look at my subject, her surroundings, and what know the outcome will be with every click of the shutter. I’d like to say that but people, especially children, are not all that predictable. I don’t need to know the outcome of every shot, life happens! Oh don’t get me wrong, I love the watching the light, studying the composition and setting a scene. I love having a vision and being able to realize that vision. Yet some of my favorite images are merely happy accidents…

Meet Hayden, 13 days old when photographed. My newborn sessions tend to run long, on average 2-3 hours long. They change so quickly in those first weeks, my goal is to capture all those little newborn details before they go away. Over the last four years I’ve certainly photographed my share of sleepy smiles and itty-bitty baby parts. Still, in all this time I have never seen a brand new baby laugh out loud during a session, and being able to capture that image for Mom and Dad, to say I’m delighted would be an understatement! Now if I could only remember what I said that was so darn funny!
