introducing….baby robbie
My friend K and her family welcomed their 3rd child recently, and I was lucky enough to photograph him in his almost 10 pound glory!! He was born at 9lbs, 3oz and was weighing in at just shy of 10lbs a few days before our session. I’ve never met a more mellow baby (both awake and asleep) and had so much fun photographing him and his family!
Gorgeous family!!
I tried and tried every day at pick up from school to convince K to let me photograph the birth, but no luck! I think when he arrived weighing what he did, she was even more happy she didn’t let me in there!
Do you not love his little hands in this one?
Smiles when he heard mommy’s voice.
After a bottle, he was fast asleep. I felt so terrible moving him off the very comfy beanbag when we were done (so much so I gave him an extra 15 min on there!)
Perfect bow lips. 
At the end of our session, K tells me her uncle is a photographer. Not just a photographer, but a world famous one. Ummmm….no pressure or anything for me. Glad she told me at the end of the session! Congrats to all of you on Robbie- he’s perfect!! -
a visit from michigan
Jack & Patrick’s BFF and family were here from Michigan over Easter and we had a great visit with them. It’s always fantastic to see them and I love hanging out with Maureen (like the old days) and my one and only goddaughter Katie.
The whole gang (minus Timmy who didn’t want to come outside).
We took a walk over to their old house. As you can see, the boys were thrilled with taking pictures there.
We visited Beth too. Maureen lived across the street once upon a time.
Poor Finster being edged out. Like the old days when the boys would edge him out at the Thomas table.
Tough guys.
Stephen (Beth’s son). Timmy & Katie did a lot of building together. And Katie was most gracious letting Timmy beat her at the Wii. 
My gorgeous goddaughter. We went shopping, out for sushi and ice cream. So fun!!
Going back in time a little bit- this was taken right before they moved away. Omg, they were so cute. And so little.
And this was taken right before they got in the car for the drive back to Michigan. (for those of you who are following along at home, my boys are on opposite sides in the below picture from the above picture. Below Jack left, Patrick right.)
So glad we’re all still friends. Miss you guys!! -
laura’s organic bloom frame
Just realized I totally forgot to post these! Sorry, Laura and thanks for letting me come by and take some pictures of your picture & frame!
Laura ordered the Cary Grant single in cream soda 16×20″ and added in a photo from our fall session of her gorgeous kids. That was my first Cary Grant order, and I love it!!

kelly’s window frames & organic bloom frames
I’m so behind on posting stuff it’s a little ridiculous. At least Disney is finally done.
Some beautiful Organic Bloom frames my friend & client Kelly ordered for her brand new house. (the hallway lighting was not the most condusive for photos, I did the best I could). The Audrey in white and (on the inside of the middle frame) metallic silver.
The Lucy in slate blue (inside) and parchment (background) for her master bedroom entry.
My favorite parts of hanging Kelly’s frames were 1. She made her painter crazy by choosing colors that matched the frames. and 2. Her oldest son came upstairs just as we were finishing up and was all smiles and compliments on the pictures and frames. He was so happy that his picture was displayed where everyone could see it!And we did a pretty window frame for Kelly’s living room. I love how the colors in the photos match her living room perfectly and the L monogram was the perfect addition (my first time doing a monogram in the frame- love that idea and hope to do it again!)
Happy Thursday to all of you! It’s sushi night here and I’m having some photografriends over tonight too. If my allergy ridden self doesn’t sneeze to death prior… -
the ilbe family/baby max
You’ll be seeing lots of this family on the blog this year- I’m seeing them every few months for photos since the birth of their newest son. I love being able to watch baby Max grow (especially after his very rocky start in this world!) and see him so healthy and happy. Believe me, if there’s anyone who has a reason to be cranky with multiple surgeries and hospitalizations, this little guy does. But he’s just as smiley as could be and a joy to be around. Just like the rest of his family!
Major picture overload…
I love these days, when the baby has eyes only for mommy…
Can’t you hear him cooing??
Mom has a picture of both her older boys with the same rattle, same clenched fist. 
Big brothers, who really couldn’t wait to get outside to play!!
And mom specifically requested this shot- super cute!!
I’ll be seeing them again this summer for their next session- stay tuned!!
