This is little W. His mom was the gorgeous pregnant woman a few posts back. ::heavy sigh:: I just adore newborns. Everything about them is so tiny and precious and gorgeous. Little W. is no exception. Congratulations Mom and Dad.




On a side note - 2008 is completely booked and I am now taking names down for the waiting list. I’ve also started booking 2009 sessions.

I had the pleasure once again of photographing this cutie up in Chicago a little bit ago. He was such an absolute cutie despite a bit of an ear infection and a bump of his head.

Whew - I’m able to pop my head above water for a second so I thought I’d get a post in. Earlier this year, I had the sincere pleasure of photographing little L. while his mom was still pregnant and just after he was born. You may remember this image:

Well now he’s 6 months old. He just keeps getting cuter and cuter:

I had the great pleasure watching little R. grow up a couple years ago. I photographed his 4 month, 8 month and 12 month pictures. Remember this picture?

Well now R’s got a baby sister and here she is impersonating her older brother:

They are both so adorable. Here some more from the session up in Chicago


And little R all grown up.

Even with getting shots earlier in the day this little guy was still such a trooper for his portrait session. He has such a big adorable smile. Here’s a sneak peek for mom and dad:

I’m so excited! I officially have only two spots left for 2008. They will be available on a first come first serve basis and then I will be taking names down for the waiting list. If you’d like one of the two remaining spots please contact me as soon as possible.

Hey there, sorry I’ve been a little M.I.A. on here, but things have just been so busy. I can’t help but sneak on here really quick to share a few pictures from one of my Charlotte sessions last weekend. This mom and her little guy were SOOO much fun. You know its going to be a good session when you’re talking to a client on the phone about location and they chime in “Well, we have all these construction trucks nearby”. I love a client that just gets it. I have so many favorites from this session it was hard not to just post all of them, but I was able to narrow it down.

This soon-to-be mom was gorgeous. I was dying to know how she did it - slim, absolutely perfect pregnant belly, no stretch marks, no nothing - just a perfect belly. Can’t wait to see little W. when he arrives!

Just an update on fall availability - Chicago is completely booked for the 2008 season. Thanks so much! If your interested in a session for the beginning part of ‘09 let me know!
Charlotte - October is completely booked but I do still have a handful of November spots open, but they are going quickly!!
************************************
Its always fun to meet Charlotte clients who have roots in Chicago. I always feel a certain kinship with them. I’m always surprised how many of us there are down here. In fact two of my Moms from this weekend were from Chicago!
Mom from this post’s featured family is actually from my old neighborhood! This gorgeous Charlotte family was so much fun this past weekend. Their boys were so stinkin’ cute!!
Here a little sneak peek for the C Family.







That’s all for now!

I’m going to be sending out information on greeting cards this week for all of those that have inquired and are interested in having those done this year. I’ll be sending an email out to all those on the mailing list and will also do a post here, so be on the look out for that.
If you’re interested in having a fall session and you haven’t yet contacted me please do. I have some week day spots still open but am just about out of weekend dates so be sure to contact me if as soon as possible so you don’t miss out.

These sisters have such great personalities and were so great to hang out with! Not to mention the fact that they are gorgeous! It easy to see why their headed to Nationals in their Photogenic competition. Good luck B and S!
