Q: "Hey Miss M, how excited are you about your first summer camp on Monday?"

A: "Too excited to stay in focus." 

Mommy concurs.

WARNING: this post will bring on an acute case of Baby Fever.  Proceed at your own risk!

This morning I had the pleasure of photographing five-day-old Miss A. and her beautiful older sisters (you may remember them from a session in the park last year).  What a gorgeous family they are--see for yourself. :)  Thank you, C. family.  It was wonderful seeing you again!

I don't think I've ever gotten so lucky with three siblings 5 and under before: 

but I think I like this one even better. :)

 I hope that everyone had a fantastic weekend! 

I most definitely relive my paper doll-playing past when I create clothing combination inspiration pages.  And, while I generally consider myself immune to the baby fever that afflicts all of my friends, seeing all of these cute sister combinations combined with photographing the newborn I will meet tomorrow morning might just give me a case of it!  I love the colors in the Gymboree Palm Springs line and there are many adorable combinations here for sisters-only shots. Anyone want to buy some of these for a session? ;) I love the Lilly-esque patterns; interestingly, though I have a strong dislike for "fauxberry," as I call fake Burberry plaid, I don't seem to have a problem with Lilly-inspired Gymbo.  ha ha! Go figure! Sadly, I have three of these items in a 4T and may be going back for more. They say admitting you have a problem is the first step. ;)

Hope everyone is having a great Memorial Day weekend!

There is nothing like a fisheye lens to inspire a bit of silliness.  Case in point: they were separated at birth, no?

I have always loved that frame from Shrek 2.  LOL!  Okay, enough silliness . . . back to work! :)

Welcome to the new blog!  I'm so excited to have a blog with super-sized images as well as a much more interactive comment system--hint, hint! :)

The old blog will be archived  HERE.  Another thing you'll find at the new blog is a new "about" page and a list of resources for clients shopping for their sessions.  Also, look under My Sites for the usual links as well as a surprise for my photographer readers--the Q&As all in one place.

To kick things off, here's a calvacade of too-big-for-Typepad landscape images from recent sessions.  Have a great weekend, everyone!

I love this look . . .

and this one's pretty priceless too.  LOL

The adorable brothers:

and the littlest G. with mama's stylin' shoes.

Fabulous crib bedding alert!

and my personal favorite from this session:

I just got a large print of this delivered and will be sending it out to the C. family--it's gorgeous!

Love this one . . .  

One from this past weekend:

and finally, one of my own tribe, taken with that wacky tilt-shift lens I talked about on the old blog.  And yes, Her Royal Highness requires her retinue to ride the merry go round with her. ;) A retinue of one in addition to her personal paparazzo, that is.
