Party of Five

I have to admit, booking a session with five children can make one sweat, just a bit.  Having four children of my own, I know what a daunting task it is just trying to get them to even look at the camera sometimes.  But this family was such much fun to photograph, they made the session a breeze.  The four boys were so great.  They had a ball on our new tire swing, exploring our pasture and splashing in the water.  The baby of the bunch, the only girl, was a bit shy at first, but once we broke out the bubbles, she came to life.

Thank you Amelia for allowing me to photograph your fun loving beautiful family.  I hope you enjoy your sneak peek.

Princes Leah

With 3 boys (make that 4 boys :) the Star Wars phenomenon in my house was probably inevitable.  My kids have been fans of Star Wars for going on about 3 years.  Regardless of whether or not your a Star Wars fan, I’m sure just about everyone  knows who Princes Leah is (thanks to that gold outfit she wore chained to Jabba the Hut.)  So, when I began writing this post in my head, I already knew my title had to be, Pricess Leah.

I met Kristen on “Flickr” a year or two ago.  She has a wonderful food blog at dineanddish.net.  (and she is running a contest right now, so please visit her blog and vote for her.  You could win something too!)  I was thrilled when Kristen took me up on my offer to photograph her newborn baby.  Born May 11th at 7:45pm weighing 8lbs 12oz and 20 inches long.  (Kristen has a beautiful slideshow on her blog as well).

So, without further ado as they say, please welcome Leah Katherine.  Congratulations Kristen and Nick and family.  What a wonderful addtion Leah makes to your beautiful family.
