Look at this face...

Seriously... how could anyone NOT love this face??

Just wanted to share a couple of my pooch. He's such an awesome doggie, really. Very high maintenance as he's recovering from his 3rd surgery (not counting a narrowly escaped 4th surgery). It's a good thing he's so cute and almost perfectly behaved.... or else! lol...

Holiday madness

Sorry I've been MIA. It's been pretty busy around here. Just wanted to stop in to share a couple of my most recent cutie pies.

Little miss M.... one of my most favorite people ever! <3>

And little miss A.....

This is my first time working with her and she was a blast. She has more facial expressions that I knew could exist... such a funny girl.

I'm all done with 2008 sessions! Time to move on to 2009!! I can't believe how fast this year has gone. I have some fun plans for 2009 so keep checking the blog and don't forget to sign up for my free e-newsletter!

Little Lady

I think the best part of my job is watching little ones grow up. I'm always amazed at how fast they grow and it's such fun watching them become little people and then bigger people.... I just love it.

This is little miss I. I did her newborn photos and just got the opportunity to do her one year portraits. What a little beauty! Isn't she gorgeous? She's such a good natured little one and had nothing but smiles the whole time we were shooting. Not a single meltdown - I was impressed! I just big puffy heart her. :-)

The results are in

So the media is all abuzz with the results of some vote on Tuesday. To that I say..... whatever. What about the REALLY important voting results - those for my Halloween Costume Contest!

:-)
I got 7 adorable entries this year. I just love Halloween and seeing all the costumes! And here they are!

I put these to the vote with a collection of fellow photographers, and the winner is....................
