Every year the months of September through December are a bit of a blur and, at some point, blogging inevitably becomes a distant second to shooting/holiday card crafting/gift prints for Aunt Marge rushing fever. Now that I've returned to work and caught my breath a bit, I'd love to share a few of the sessions from the last two months, as well as the winter babies who keep coming!
It was a treat, as always, to photograph the C. family. We began years ago with eldest brothers L. and B. playing basketball, baseball, and bubbles in the backyard. Then came brother H. Mom and I will never forget settling him at last just as the dog decided to run barking through the house! :) And now, finally . . . pink! What could be sweeter?

Has it really been more than three weeks since I've blogged? If that's not a sign of the busy fall/holiday portrait rush, then I don't know what is!
The studio will be closing for the holidays from tomorrow through January 3rd. For those super-organized moms-to-be who booked their newborn sessions for December, I will see you soon! All other e-mails and calls will be returned beginning on the 3rd.
I have so many new sessions to blog and all winter to catch up, so for now I'll simply wish everyone a beautiful holiday season with the ones you love. Enjoy every moment!
xoxo
Joyce

"I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles." ― Audrey Hepburn
For today . . . a beautiful family with three happy girls. :)

What a treat to see A. and C. again. I have so loved our sessions over the years! Thank you, Z. family.

I have loved photographing the M. family since before Miss A. was born, and every time it's like being with old friends. Though they are about to embark on a new adventure in New England, we will not say farewell but instead, as always, "until next time!" Thank you, M. family.

What can I say? It's fall (or winter this past weekend :)) and the blog has fallen by the wayside in favor of sessions, sessions, and more sessions! Here are a few recent ones from the holiday minis. Prepare for cuteness!
