More from the Picture Party

Here are the last two families from the picture party on Saturday. Since these kids were a little older I decided to make them brave the chilly temps for some outdoor shots. They were great troopers and very good helpers at making the little ones smile, thank you Mr R and Miss L for your cooperation and help.




Here are their cousins. Up first Miss A.

Her older sister Miss B. Miss B was very sweet with her new little sister, she was holding and kissing her all the time.

Speaking of the newest addition Miss C, just 2 weeks old, and another set of beautiful blue eyes.

That's all for the picture party. I will be very busy the next few days working my way through all the pictures I took this weekend.

Hey Look!

A picture of one of my children! actually this is the only picture of my child that I have taken all month. maybe in January I will get some more of my kids, after the Xmas rush. So here is Jessica helping Marc with the leaves.

Picture Party part 2

Here is my second installment. First up two sisters, Miss N and Miss S. Miss N did a great job taking care of her little sister and keeping her safe on the table.

more beautiful baby blues...

I went next door to meet Mr L and Miss R. Mr L was not so interested in having his little sister in his lap but was very willing to allow her to sit next to him, ah memories.
nothing cuter than a nudie baby!
not the best pic, but who doesn't love a little yawning baby?
still need to get approval from the last two families to put pics on the blog, so you will have to wait to see the rest. more shoots tomorrow and this week.

Picture Party part 1

I had a picture party today. Five families in 3 hours- phew I am tired. Here is the first installment, my wonderful host's adorable twins. Their parents were nice enough to build an addition with big glass doors so there was lots of light- wasn't that thoughtful of them? So here they are in the beautiful Christmas dresses.


Check out these baby blues!

I am so funny!
And here it is, the image of the day. This is Miss S in her birthday outfit, I think I should invite her to my annual Oscar party, what do you think?
onto uploading part two...

2 Cuties to brighten up a Yucky Day

It was very gloomy and grey here today, very dark. My friend Terri, who moved out of town earlier this year, called yesterday to say she was going to be in the neighborhood and could I take the kids' pictures. I was very excited to see all of them again, and then this dark day arrived. I was really nervous that we wouldn't have enough light to get good pictures, but we decided to give it a shot. I am so glad we did. Mr J and Miss L were so stinking cute! They were adorable and so fun. Miss L is all about the kisses, kisses for her mommy, kisses for her brother, heck she was even giving kisses to herself-too cute. My favorite part was when I said, "who is the cutest?" and without skipping a beat she replied, "I am!"- too true.




Mr J decided to give some kisses back to Miss L, all together everybody say, "awwwww"....

Sneak Peek for Hilarie

My friend Hilarie came over today with her three beautiful girls. The littlest loves her mommy very much, and me not so much. That was until after I put my camera away and then she was more than happy to play with me- figures. First up is Miss M, she and Jessica are in the same Brownie Troop and Dance class. She is a wonderful subject, happy to pose and to help get her sisters to smile. I have to say I am embracing the non-smiley pics lately, blame it on my online mentor.

Miss O was a bit harder to get to cooperate but once she did her smile shined through, don't you think?

Little Miss S- so cute, love that face.

So we moved inside because it was getting a little cold. Aren't they beautiful?

I have to admit that as they drove out I thought I didn't have one good one of the three of them together. Imagine my excitement to see this picture.....

Ah the sweet smell of a newborn

So I have been really wanting to get my hands on a little newborn- photographically speaking of course. Just my luck that a classmate/ soccer teammate of Jessica had a mom who was expecting her fourth bundle of joy. She was very willing to let me come over and take some pics of their newest addition. Unfortunately little Miss N has her own ideas. I was there for 2 hours and she REFUSED to sleep- I am just too exciting I guess. On the positive side she also didn't cry, just pleasantly looked around. Well let us start with Jessica's friend, Miss G.


Here is the only boy, Mr. R, I think he and Justin will be fast friends soon too. They already enjoyed sneaking off during the soccer games to get up to who knows what mischief. This pose is a total future G.Q. cover, I think.

and little Miss M, more than happy to have her picture taken, but not so interested in looking at the camera or sitting still.

All four actually looking at the camera (or in that general direction).

Here she is, baby N, in all her awake glory.




So sweet. Almost makes me want another.... almost but not quite.
