    the hyla family

    Was so excited to do this shoot for this awesome family of (now) 4 boys! They were as well behaved as I remembered and just as gorgeous too. And the new baby was de.lic.ious. Seriously. Ok, so he’s not so new, but he’s still new to me.

    The oldest was celebrating his first communion a few days after our shoot so we took a few special ones for him in his communion outfit before making the change into ‘regular’ clothes for the rest of the shoot. (And I was constantly checking to make sure those white pants were still white every 5 seconds!)

    Some shots of each of the other 3 boys.

    And the whole family. (there are a bunch of ones without the baby doing peek-a-boo, but it was too cute not to post on the blog).

    Mom wanted to be sure we got lots of pictures of the baby this session since there aren’t any of him from our last shoot (for obvious reasons. Like not being born yet.).

    And the infamous ‘walkingawayholdinghands’ shot. Love.

    Thanks to all of you for another fantastic session. I love taking pictures for you and hope you love seeing them just as much! I do have to mention how funny I found the picture below while editing. I swear it looks like the baby has his arm around ‘someone’ too! Hmmmm….maybe it’s time for #5? Just sayin.

    playing @ the park with timmy

    Just a few (ok, more than few- you know I just can’t help myself) of Timmy at the park this week. Gotta love this delicious boy! Figured a bunch of sunny pictures on a rainy day (here in NY at least) would be just the thing.

    Keeping the narrative really short for today. After this weekend’s marathon of shoots (with 1,731 pictures over 10 hours) I have a ton of editing awaiting me!

    bcause i said so- another new batch

    of totally adorable shirts for both boys and girls, twins and singletons, big and small. Wish the big boys were still little- they would definitely be rockin the ‘part of a set’ shirts (except both in blue)…

    If you are interested in purchasing any of the shirts shown here or seeing some of bcause i said so’s other products, visit their website at www.bcauseisaidso.com

    the roes family

    This adorable, photogenic bunch was gifted with a bsquared shoot a while back. We had a session scheduled back in the fall that we rescheduled due to rain to the spring (when the baby was bigger). I’m so happy with how it worked out with the nice, sunny and warm day that we definitely wouldn’t have had in the late fall.

    The gift card was from mom’s sisters, all 3 of whom I have photographed in the past. Loved getting to meet the last sister from the family who’s company I thoroughly enjoyed! One of her sisters was the woman I had asked for prayers here on the blog not too long ago. And I’m so happy to report that she continues to do really well in her recovery!

    The kids couldn’t have been more gorgeous, nor the house more ‘pottery barn’, especially the kids rooms.

    Had to get the other family member (who had the cutest little smushed up face with a swivel head everytime someone talked to him).

    Thanks to all of you for a fantastic afternoon. (and all the chitchat afterwards!) Hope you enjoy your pictures. And hi to all the sisters!!!
