loved

I love every image from this session, but this is one of my favorites. Sweet labrador Buddy . . . you will be missed. But even more importantly, you were incredibly loved while you were here.

"Where we love is home; home that our feet may leave, but not our hearts." ~ Oliver Wendell Holmes

What a wonderful session this was!  The G. family will soon be moving (luckily for me, not out of the area!) and wanted to capture life on their street before the big day.  Our goal was to document Miss A's childhood home, include their adorable dog (ambassador of the street), and--if the stars aligned--highlight the annual cherry tree blooms.

I'd say the stars aligned.

Thank you, G. family!

simply adorable

Today I'm sharing a few more from adorable F.'s simplicity session, which took place in and just outside the Wayne studio.  Don't you think she is model material? Thank you once again, G. family!

Thinking of a summer session?  Send me a note today--just a few weekend dates remain!

where does the time go?

When I edited the image you see on the lower right this week, I was instantly transported to a session I did with the wonderful M. family in 2008.  As you can see, we are waiting for some very good news and the M. family will soon be a party of five!  What a gift it has been to watch them grow, laugh, and love through the years.  Thank you, M. family!  You are the best!

Loveliest of trees, the cherry now

love

Just a few pages from a recent album . . . some images are from the maternity session--sweet B's last weeks as "the baby"--and some are from the beautiful newborn session.  What an adorable big brother he makes, and could baby M. be sweeter?  He was very alert and focused at just a few days old--a sign of great intelligence, I always say!  At least this is what my husband and I said to console ourselves back when we had a newborn with no interest in sleeping.  :)

Thank you, N. family!  I loved being a part of this special time and I can't wait for you to see your album!

Click through the slideshow to see them all!

Spring has sprung! Could sweet F. be any more adorable? Just one from this morning's session at the studio.
