Needless to say it is a very long, drawn out, probably exceedingly boring story about the journey life takes us when we least expect it. However, the million dollar question seems to be…… “Are you still taking clients”? And the answer is YES! I am still taking clients. And I am going to show off some of the gorgeous clients I have taken on…. starting with one of my fave little men, Nadav. I had the pleasure of photographing him at 6 months of age and was blessed once again when he turned one…..



and he is so expressive I could just eat him up with marmalade and toast!!! (well and maybe a little peanut butter)… ;)

Wittle tiny man from Friday. He is an early bird as he wasn’t due to hatch for 4 more weeks!

I am bone tired from a weekend of trying to heal our wounded doggie. She had surgery two weeks ago, developed a very bad complication, was on the verge of us having to put her down on Friday evening :( , but now seems to be a bit on the mend. Fingers crossed!!! I will try to post photos of her and the kids very soon. First the cute baby….I get to spend tomorrow with another wittle early bird too…YAY!

A few more of baby ella and her awesome family. I have been dying to do an image of a daddy with a tattoo and his baby. This daddy has a rockin’ tattoo and loves his little baby girl to pieces :) I have to give a HUGE shout out to my AWESOME dad’s who have bravely bared their chests for me to photograph them with their wee loves. There is honestly nothing that melts any mama’s heart more than seeing her man loving their baby. :)

And just for fun, I will let everyone in on my super top secret photo editing music collection…..

Strangelove — Depeche Mode
Shake the Disease — Depeche Mode (saw them live at the Forum in LA circa 1985 or ‘86, I can’t remember!)
Where the Streets Have no Name — U2
Bad — U2 (Saw live in 1988….my bff Heather and I got Bono butt view….don’t know why they played in the round)
Gin and Juice — Snoop Dog (shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! Don’t tell anyone…..it’s a mood piece……lol!)

He is such a chub a bub that he even has his own nose brow!!!! Yum-o! My second 9 lb’er this week :)

The funny thing was that he was IN LOVE with this position. He was awake until I put him like this…..then he rapidly drifted off to sleep!

At first he was not very interested in having his clothes removed for nakey baby pictures. In fact, I was actually afraid to remove his clothes starting off. For fear that our sleep time would be over…. ;) Fortunately he got all nice and cozy and warm. And let me have my way! For some reason the babies this week have not wanted any tummy poses. Usually I will have one or two who just say NO to tummy poses. But all of them? I think it was a bit of a baby conspiracy. :)



I just love the look of this shot….the mix between his sweet little baby clothes and his adorable little newborn face.

I will have to admit that I was quite enthralled with his delicate baby features.
