Charmer

Oh Boy! How can a person with only 2 teeth, who drools, and who prefers to run around naked be so adorable?!?! This family has a special place in my heart and it was my pleasure to be able to capture him at this most-wonderful age!

He has the BEST squishy feet that he rests on top of one another. The chubbiest little legs, and the sweetest smile. And his mom & sister aren't bad, either!

Enjoy! But fair warning that these images might give you the "i want a baby" urge!

simply. amazing.

one baby is amazing enough. but two babies. wow. when you stop and think about the miracle that is creation - and how the majority of times a perfect little human being is made - and times it by TWO - how can you not be amazed?

cheers to their mamma for carrying them and persevering through a difficult pregnancy. to their daddy, family and friends for support. to their big sister whose world will be rocked!

congratulations, guys. it was a pleasure!

"Have a Baby If"

Philosophy is a line of beauty products with packaging that I just love. This weekend, I smelled their new product "Baby Grace" (I have their "Pure Grace" perfume and it is yummy). The Baby Grace is so soft and sweet, but what really got me was the packaging:

"Have A Baby If...
Have a baby if you've ever wondered what your soul looks like.
Have a baby if you need proof that God truly does exist.
Have a baby if you have lost your innocence, a baby will find it for you.
Have a baby if you have trouble staying in the moment.
Have a baby if you dare to feel the winds of heaven each time you feel their breath across your cheek.
Have a baby if you can't put your finger on what is missing from your life. "

I'm not saying that you should have a baby if you want these things. Nature makes me feel this way. As does life. Babies certainly remind me of the miracle. Children do too. As do People. Connections. We all need them. And we are lucky to have them.

amazing.

Excited. Grateful. Happy.

My exciting news to share is that I've opened a natural light studio! It is WONDERFUL!! The studio space is geared for newborns (and their parents), so it is warm, cozy, light, and comfortable. I have a passion for newborns and I realized that I needed a place where all of my things are, where moms can relax, where babies can be warm and cozy, where the light is soft and sweet. And through luck and a wonderful realtor, I found it!!

For those of you in Rochester, I am at the historic Broadstreet Building. I am on the 2nd floor, above 300 First and the Redwood Room. The studio has wood floors, tall ceilings, exposed brick and natural light! Even with the dark dreary days of last week, I was able to hold two sessions with no problem!

I am so thankful to everyone who helped get the studio in shape. Especially my husband who spent many nights painting and hauling furniture. And Sonia and Matt. And Steve. And Kari. Aunt Lizzie. And Katie & Irv for sharing their daughter with me for the first session at the studio. And Allison for finding me my first set of twins. And Tanya, the twins mom! It's been a whirlwind week, but now I can breathe a sigh of relief and focus on putting the space to good use!

I will also use the space for babies if clients would prefer the studio rather than their homes. For older children and families, however, I will still be on location....because I truly love to be outdoors and in homes and I believe that I can capture the purest moments in those settings.

Here is a link to an article in the Post-Bulletin about my studio. It's called "Birth of a Studio" (isn't that a clever title)?!

If you are expecting, or have friends who are expecting, please share this information with them!
