First Official Photographs

Sometimes you discover wonderful personality traits in children while they are being photographed.  A few weeks ago I met an acrobat...

And I met a beautiful poster child!

I saw eyes full of wonder.

And feet fast as lightning!

I even met a silly goose.  Now that's what I call a fun afternoon!

Never sneak up on a sleeping cat!

Last Friday I was busy in the garden, preparing for the next Spring Session.  I was creating my plan and thinking of the best flow to and from each location and I must have disturbed Oscar's nap!  I think you can figure out what he was telling me with this look - but as long as I'm at arm's length I don't worry... Over the past 10 years I've collected more grumpy photos than sweet kitty photos of this baby.  If you know this cat you're laughing right now.

Anyway, photos from the real session will follow but I'll be taking suggestions for the inspirational saying to put on this new wall poster.

Garden Fun for Families

There's a new member of the Alexander family in this year's Spring Portraits.  Sarah and Sam brought their new sister Sophia to the garden last week for some fun times. 

Sarah and Sam have been sitting for me for a few years now - they know the drill - and they love it!

Sophia is a fast learner though, and such a friendly smile - we'll have many more of this little one to show very soon!

Mothers remember you may wind up in these photos - don't forget your lip gloss!
