Sneak peek... The "K" twins

It was such a pleasure to have the opportunity to spend the morning with this lovely duo. These little ones were 4 weeks early so they were teensy-tiny. They were just about 9 pounds COMBINED. I just loved them so much, I wanted to bring them home in my pocket! They were so, so good to me and barely made a peep. They were especially content when they were snuggled next to each other. The bond between twins is so neat, and it was wonderful to be able to capture a little bit of that today. Thanks mom and dad for inviting me into your home and sharing your peanuts with me for a little while.

“Remember that children, marriages, and flower gardens reflect the kind of care they get.” H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

I had the pleasure of spending a bit of time with this beautiful family today. It's always amazing and inspiring to see a couple that has been married over 50 years still holding hands, still caring for one another, still laughing at each other's jokes. It really makes the day to day squabbles seem so silly and insignificant when you look at the grand picture of spending a lifetime with someone. I hope these two have many, many more years together tending their gardens and enjoying their wonderful family.

Sneak peek... Miss S, 6 months

well this little miss decided NOT to take her morning nap, as per mommy's plan to have a happy baby for photos. i sometimes think little ones can sense when we're desperate for them to do something and then they do everything in their power NOT to do it our way. :) so, we knew we we were going to have limited time before happy baby turned into a tired and grumpy baby so today's shoot had to move a little more quickly than normal. she actually did REALLY well and was giving me some winning smiles... thanks mostly to mommy's rendition of "bah, bah black sheep" (wait, was that the one??). :) thanks for all of your help, mom, dad and big sister... i can't wait to see you all again in october!

... and even though it was little sisters day to be in the spotlight, what kind of big sister would she be if she didn't try to steal the show?? ....

What the client had to say....

In the short amount of time taken for Lindsay to capture these phenomenal photos, I cannot express just how wonderful of an experience she was able to provide our little family. Though the consummate professional that she is, there was nothing "stuffy", uptight or business-like about the process but rather laid back, relaxed and comfortable. Then, when I saw the photos, I was completely blown away; they were absolutely beautiful and through them, she was able to convey the beauty of my first child just as I had hoped she would.

Sneak peek.... The "C" cousins!

These kids are so lucky, they get to live next door to their cousins! How much fun would that be?!?! A morning with 4 kids under the age of 4 was a bit challenging at times but with the help of the moms and Auntie Stacie, I think we managed to pull off some great shots. Maybe in a couple years they will be more easily bribed into participating.... but wait, then there might be even MORE cousins to include! YIKES. ;)

What the client had to say....

We are so thrilled that Lindsay was referred to us! After returning home from the hospital with our brand new baby girl, the last thing we wanted to do was bring her to one of those run of the mill baby photographers at the mall. She came to our home just nine days after the birth of our little one for a newborn photoshoot. I have to be honest, I was a bit nervous having someone I've never met handle our brand new baby. After only a few short moments of meeting Lindsay, I was completely at ease. She was absolutely amazing! You can tell that she is a mom whose got it together as well as an outstanding photographer! Although our baby slept through most of the shoot, Lindsay was able to manipulate her into various positions to capture the most precious photos without disturbing her peacefulness! Our experience with Lindsay was wonderful, and we will cherish the beautiful photos of our daughter forever!

Sneak peek... Mr. A and his adoring parents...

what's better than hiking around enjoying nature with your family... rolling down hills... holding hands and swinging... and of course a little sugar to top it off?
i had the most lovely morning with this adorable family.
thanks guys, i hope you love your photos and think they capture you as you are.

ps- don't let his sweet face fool you, this little guy is bad to the bone. ;)

Sneak peek.... Melissa & Paul, soon to be parents...

gosh, i just love maternity sessions... subjects that actually listen to direction (unlike a toddler), they hold still and smile on cue?? it's like a vacation. thanks for hanging with me for a little while today... i can't wait to hear what you ended up having. i'm leaning towards boy but we all know how good my guessing record is. ;)

Sneak peek... Mr. B, 2 years old

Two year old boys are tricky little creatures. You sort of have to just dive in front of them, press the shutter and hope for the best! This little guy was no exception. I think we managed to pull it off though, thanks in HUGE part to his very patient and loving parents. Thanks for playing with me this morning, I look forward to meeting your new peanut in December...my official guess is boy. :) Hope you guys all had a good nap after I left.
