High-four with Mickey!

Natalie and Mickey Mouse have something in common--four fingers!

budding photographer

soon the birthday girl!

 Olivia is having a birthday this weekend! These aren't the official birthday photos, but a few practice shots in the outfit she requested I make for her special day at school on Friday. This first one I gave what I'm calling the Vermeer look, after the Dutch painter...she seemed to have an old-world pose going on and it seemed to call out for an old-world vintage color treatment.

Red--this weeks i heart faces challenge

The theme this week over at i heart faces is red..and I love this photo. I took this the day before Natalie had her hand surgery. She just got these new red sneakers and had to take a nap in them. The next day she got her new thumb!

(I'm maybe being daring here with this entry since her face is blurred in the background but i love this photo)

Lovely Lila

winter mini-sessions

I'm offering mini portrait sessions for the rest of the winter here at my home--the session includes one of my new 3x3 accordion albums filled with ten photos from your session in a cute custom designed little fold-up book.  Here is an example of one:
