I’m editing like mad right now trying to keep up with all the holiday orders, but I found a bit of time on Sunday to visit my friends Regan & Bill and their beautiful boy, Patrick. I photographed Patrick when he was just a wee wrinkly little guy and it was so fun to see him again, twice as big, with a big smile and ruddy cheeks! So amidst all the hustle, let me take a moment to wish everyone a wonderful holiday season!

As I edit these pictures, I see all the snow falling outside the window and press my toes to the radiator to keep them warm. And it’s really strange to think that my session with Caris & Evan and their parents was only about a week ago! It was a gorgeous sunny fall day such a short time ago and now the snow is coming down!

Caris & Evan are such cuties – Caris is about three and half and Evan is just seventeen months. Caris was full of smiles and wanted to show me everything – her ballet moves, her best stuffed monkey, how high she could swing and her favorite books. Evan was not sure that my camera and I were really a welcome sight. He definitely eyed me very suspiciously, but we got a few smiles here and there – after all, it’s hard to pay attention to the weird camera when there are so many other great things to capture your attention!

I LOVE this picture of Caris giggling and tickling her dad!

Sometimes the really sad faces are just as precious as the happy ones!
