Good morning
May 30, 2008
and because I can’t decide which to post…
Reb: I'm glad you posted both ... they're both gorgeous (and YUMMY!). xoxo
Reb: p.s. this is silly ... but you wanna know what my favorite part of the second shot is? The crumbs. Love love love the crumbs ...
Jessica: Coffee in the morning...ahh I couldn't live without it. There was a time when I wouldn't touch it...but then I had children. Is that a latte? oooh Dena I love your watermark..sweet and classy!
dena: Ha Reb, I chose that shot because of the crumbs! Glad you caught it. Jess, it's my India Chai, mmmmmmmmnnn.
Jessica: Chai one of my all time favorites!
The hunt
May 29, 2008Today, between rain showers, we went on a walk to hunt for faeries, sprites and pixies with our field books in hand, our cameras ready and our imaginations on alert…
Reb: Oh gosh, this is GORGEOUS! You win, ha ha! I'm not sure I'm willing to try given what you've been throwing out. Seriously, you should see what I shot today - it's all garbage. You rock, my friend. Seriously.
Jessica: This is simply serene and beautiful. I love the post processing and just everything. Now mine from today seems so blah too!
Day’s End
May 28, 2008The sun decided to finally make its appearance today…at 8 pm. Just in time for Cam’s bedtime bath. And his storytime and his warm cuddle and a nice long rock in the rocking chair. We sat for a long time, just me and him and the evening sun…back and forth…back and forth. We need to do that more often.
Gail: I bet you were missed.
Tanya: Yum! Looks like it's worth the wait.
Reb: Oooh, you are bad! Yes, this girl needs detox too. But only after my latest bar of Green and Blacks is safely in my tummy, lol. xoxo
Jessica: That is so funny. I can completely relate...many of my would be gifts find their final resting place in my tummy. Sad but true.
Patsy Dunn: I bought a bar of yummy chocolate and put it next to my computer.......the dog got it! Luckily he didn't figure out how to separate the chocolate from the paper. Otherwise, he might be really have got to know what "Death by chocolate" means.
Four times the Charm
May 6, 2008This little munchkin Noah and I have started something. Something Great. Something I hope we are still talking about 25 years from now. I get to photograph him every year, watch him grow up in front of my lens. If I get my way, I will be photographing his wedding someday too.
Noah as a newborn:
Noah at One:
Noah at Two:
Now, Noah at THREE!!!!
His silly mummy escaped my camera this year, but I will just have to get twice as many of her next year! Same time same place guys?
xx.d.
Rebecca: I can't believe how much he's grown up! Thank you for capturing him year after year - what a priceless record of my little monkey. I'm so grateful for your willingness to photograph us and for your amazing talent. And yes!!! Same time same place next year for sure ... xoxo
Jessica: Awww these are so great. The train ones in the 3yr old photos are so perfect..lighting composition, just everything!
Gail: I hope I can have some of that blue when we hit the UK in August. Please place an order for me - grazie.
Look who’s 11
May 1, 2008Eleven months that is…
He can crawl across the floor in 2 seconds flat, especially if there is something wonderfully small and dangerous to eat. He can bounce like a kangaroo. His hair…well, you’ll see. He is crazy for mealtime and has yet to turn down a single food item. Lunchtime usually involves avocado or cottage cheese or spaghetti (or all 3) smooshed into his hair, ears and other little crevices. Lather rinse and repeat at teatime. His vocab consists of: meh mah (momma), duh duh (dada), duck, up, uh-oh, neh neh neh neh (NO), Aye Dum (Aidan), and Nia (India). Today I pulled OUT of his mouth, 6 legos, 2 paper clips, mysterious fuzz, blue string, red string, a pebble, a few seashells, several hairties and a doll’s head. But he is still breathing. I’m not. He is ONE busy busy busy ‘almost 1′ baby!
WHEW!! Is it naptime yet?
Rebecca: He is sooooo perfect and wonderful. I love that I *know* all of those expressions now, and I miss him that much more! Bring him to me. Pleeeeaaasssee. I could use a little more Cam in my life. Give him loads of hugs and kisses for me. xoxo
Patsy Dunn: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. How can he grow up without his NONA? I miss you guys so much. Love the hair and every cute expression. I got an e-mail from Travelocity advertising flights to London for $296 from Seattle. I thought I would grab up a couple of tickets, but for every date I tried the tickets were $900-$1100 each. How can they advertise something that really doesn't exist. Hmmm, maybe there was just 1 elusive ticket at that price. Hug and kiss all of you guys for me.
Paul Dunn: Makes your heart melt. Hope we can arrange a trip over at least by summer's end. Love you all. Dad
Rose: I stumbled upon you today and have to say just how gorgeous he is. Love your photography.
Jessica: He is so perfectly scrumtious! Gosh...just so cute!
Stacy W.: Aww, he is beyond adorable! And I love your description of him...so perfectly true at that age. :)
Reb: Oh my. I *neeeeeed* a copy of that first shot. What a perfect way to celebrate his last day as a whatever-month old. Tomorrow he's ONE! Love love love that kid and love love love these shots. Give him a squeeze from his favorite Auntie!
Paul Dunn: HAPPY BIRTHDY Cameron. You are a big smilely happy hansome boy. We all love you. Grandpa
Jessica: oh my yummy yummy cuteness! That first shot should be huge in your bathroom somewhere. He is so precious!
Patsy Dunn: I like the last picture, bubbles on the chin and all. totally precious!!
Kendell Silveira: Perfection!!! These are so wonderful! Happy Birthday!
