My Little 'Big' Girl...

8 months old.

Why do they have to grow up so fast?

'Tis the Season!

So, I was so excited to photograph some of my favorite people to kick off the holiday season! My good friend, Melissa Koehler and her beautiful family met me up in Poway to take a few shots before Aiden's One Year Birthday Party. It was so much fun!
We had to go to extreme measures to get Aiden to smile for the camera!
Aiden LOVES his mommy!
I think he was done here....he's waving goodbye!
Thanks you guys! It was a lot of fun!

Alright....I admit it!

I'm a terrible blogger!

My good friend Melissa pointed out to me how many of you regularly check my blog...I'm sorry I haven't posted something new in so long! I vow to try harder... =)

Starting with....(drumroll please...)

Susan Meissner!

This is one of the sweetest ladies I have ever met! She is a Christian Mystery Writer, who contacted me to do her new headshots for her next book getting published by Random House, Inc. in 2008. She has written several amazing novels...and is again, one of the sweetest ladies I've ever met!

She was so fun to photograph. Here are a few of my favorites.

I know this next one isn't a 'headshot', but I couldn't help myself. It looked 'mysterious' to me! I thought maybe she could use it for something. =)

Isn't she beautiful?

I was such an honor to photograph you, Susan!

My lil' pumpkin...

...is 7 months old now. I took her birthday photos at a pumpkin patch this month. She loved it! She wanted to chew and suck on every pumpkin stem she could get her hands on! You can see more of her photos on her BLOG.

Memory Lane...

...except for the fact that I have no actual 'memory' of it! Ha ha! I was way to little...but, my mom does!

Okay, so what I am talking about is the 'special' photoshoot I did of my own baby a couple of weeks ago. My mom gave me some outfits that I had actually worn when I was little, so I decided to slip one on Abbey for fun.

Here she is in a slip that I used to wear under my dresses...

I love this photo...she looks so beautiful!

And this...this is the fun and extremely spirited lil' turkey that I know and LOVE!
