Out numbered

04.28.09

 Oh boy is this Dad out numbered by the GORGEOUS girls in his family! Even the dog is a girl, Calliope (LOVE that name)! But something tells me, he doesn't mind too much! ;)

Here's little miss Erin.

 

She has TO DIE FOR eyes and LOOOOONG lashes!

And new arrival, Samantha! At 7 days old she was a perfect model!

My favorite of the day! Thanks to Grandma who saved this scale from when Mom was a baby!

Thank you to the whole family for having me out to your home!

Blink

04.26.09

I've known this Mom since elementary school and it seems like in a blink of an eye, here we are 20 something years later! I was very excited when she called me to schedule a session with her and her beautiful family! We had a fun and relaxing time just hanging out in the front yard under the gorgeous dogwood tree!

Love this one with the family dog Daisy front and center!

 

 

 

Thanks to the whole family, it was wonderful to see you all!

  3. Mom

    Love the family pict……I'll bet those boys will give Daisy a run for her money…..good looking family!

 

Happy Earth Day everyone! And if you are not on the Ideal bite email list by now you need to be! Check out this super cute dress that was in my "mama bite" email today (Note to friends and family: NO I'm not pregnant, I'm on the Mama bite email list so I can pass information like this onto my clients and stay current and in the know. So please refrain yourselves from filling my comment box with "Are you pregnant!" or "I want grandchildren" comments) Sorry you all had to see that, but sometimes I have to get tough with them. Now back to our regularly scheduled post:

 

This little dress is made from a Man's shirt and can be found here!

Also check out these other cute eco friendly dresses here, here and here!

  4. Katie

    Ah darn—I was all ready to comment until I read your note to family and friends…now…I've got nothing :(

 

Mom, Dad and I had a blast "playing" with little Sam and he was good enough to humor us! :) Such a beautiful day, beautiful baby, beautiful home and beautiful family! I am one lucky photographer

How cool is Dad with his new little buddy? This is actually a family photo, if you look close you can see Mom's reflection in the lower left hand area of the car! I love it!

 

How cute is the family pup? Sam's pj's actually have little beagles on them!

 

My fav from the day is the one on the right! My clients have such beautiful homes!

 

Thank you to the whole family! You were all so great and made my job easy!

    Kelli – these are gorgeous! What a beautiful baby! You capture the light so beautifully in every setting you're in…it's incredible! And this home belongs in a magazine! :)
