    chanukah

    Guess I’m late on this post too. Do you think I’ll ever catch up??

    We did all 8 nights with Grandma & Grandpa. Timmy’s become quite the chanukah expert from school.

    Uncle Nelson came over and cooked the very traditional Chanukah spaghetti in meat sauce for dinner and got to take a turn lighting the candles.

    Well, happy Chanukah anyway. Hope yours was good if you celebrate.

    the devit family

    This lovely little family was gifted with a bsquared session from a very good bsquared client. I was really looking forward to meeting them and their newest addition.

    So we got both newborn and Christmas shots. With a quick change of outfit, it was a whole new shoot! Isn’t the baby just lovely?

    The biggest sister is so great with her new baby sister. She was so funny; going from shy one second to modeling the next, back to shy again. It was literally frame by frame.

    Christmas in the city

    There’s really nothing like NYC at Christmas. I would never want to miss it. (yes, even with the cold and snow). It’s not really Christmas without a day or more in the city.

    We took the boys in for the usual spots: the Tree, the 5th Avenue windows, FAO Schwarz, The Plaza, Times Square Toys R Us, just the streets and sights of NYC, and finally the Hard Rock for dinner. We walked a zillion blocks and had a great time.

    The boys at the tree. Still hate the fact that you can’t go in the great middle picture spot anymore without having to do the vendor picture. What a ripoff.

  • children & families,  video your shoot

    the baut family

    My first blog post from the new Mac. Getting used to it, slowly. Technology is a blessing and a curse. Seriously.

    Anyway, had a great time photographing this blondie family with mom and dad who are originally from Texas. And although there were quite a few tears throughout the shoot,(it was a late night for the kids the night before) we came away with some great shots anyway.

    No word yet on the state of the crashed computer. You know, the one thats obviously plotting my early demise. Picking up the new-old Mac g5 this morning. At least all the pix are still in the external hard drive so I can keep blogging. And big thanks to Jack & Patrick for letting me take over their computer.
