This week's sneak peaks...

It's been a busy but fun week of photographing! Saturday night, I had the pleasure of capturing a surprise birthday event at The Mansion. I had never been there before and it was beyond spectacular (the food was to-die-for as well...thanks, Julius, for feeding me!). Next up was a family session (a group of thirteen!) at the Arboretum...we totally lucked out with phenomenal weather and got some great shots. Lastly, I got to see another one of my sweet, sweet baby-planners. Gabrielle is now three months old and is the spitting image of her pretty mama. She was quite generous with the smiles despite a little cold and I couldn't have been more pleased. Gabrielle's big sister, Audrey, was all smiles too and I couldn't resist snapping a few pics of her as well!

I'm not planning to work this weekend though...we're leaving Friday for Orlando to attend a wedding and visit Disneyworld...the girls are super excited and we are looking forward to some quality family time together. Have a great weekend, and thanks for looking!

Sweet Baby Boy

My good friend Amy and her husband Chris became first time parents to a precious baby boy last Tuesday. Part of my gift to Amy was to come out and photograph Grayson during his first week of life and it was such a joy to see this new little family together. Grayson was wide awake for most of the shoot and I was thrilled to be able to capture his beautiful blue eyes! He finally decided to get some shut-eye at the end of our session and was happiest snuggling in mom and dad's arms. Looking forward to seeing Grayson again in a couple of weeks when I bring dinner to his mommy and daddy!
