I was asked to pull some of my favorite images for a very exciting upcoming project (more on that soon!) and so I spent the evening going down memory lane.  Here are the ones that just begged to be included--and in chronological order no less (thanks, Bridge!).  What fun it was to remember each of these sessions.  The giggles, the tiny toes, the slightly off-key renditions of "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star."  So many wonderful little people--people in the making.  Thank you to each and every one! : )

This lovely family that I had the pleasure of photographing in 2007 has just grown exponentially. : )  It was such a treat to see mom, dad, and big brother D. again and meet the newest additions to the family.  Welcome to the world, F. and R.!  Here's a sneak peek for the D. family and this blog post does come with a warning--BABY FEVER RISK AHEAD, PROCEED WITH CAUTION.

Every winter, like many of my photographer friends, I take time to rejuvenate, get creative, and just plain exhale from the holiday exhaustion.  This year I vowed to take off completely and utterly between Christmsa and January 5th.  In a move not surprising to anyone who knows me . . . I went the other way. :)  I added on a last-minute hardcore business workshop in Nashville and so instead found myself finishing client galleries from December (that I was going to get to after the 5th), scrambling to get my financial records in tip-top shape, and heading to Nashville on the 6th for four days of managerial accounting, sales, and marketing chatter.  It was rejuvenating, in a way.  Just a very busy bee sort of way to "relax." :)

I did take a true break here and there, however, and managed to photograph all three of my children.  

My oldest.

My middle child, who is already like me in so many ways. :)

And my youngest, who has doubled in size since December 1st. psst--if anyone knows how to get the youngest and oldest to be friends rather than play the hiss-and-dash game, I'm all ears!

A quick announcement just for photographers--a special offer will be heading out next week to those of you who inquired about workshops and consulting/mentoring opportunities.  If you are interested in adding your name to this list, just send me an e-mail this weekend!  Thank you!

I'll be meeting some special newborn twins this weekend, so the blog is sure to be filled with cuteness next week. See you then!

Thank you to all of my clients and blog readers for making 2009 so memorable. The 2009 year-in-review slideshow featuring many of my favorite images is now up.

Thank you once again, and here's to a splendid 2010 as well!
