Baby Emilia

Wednesday, August 11th, 2010

Anyone who knows me knows one thing: I am not the “calmest” person in the world. I don’t “vacation” well. So, when we went back to Ireland for our wedding reception a few weeks ago; and I had no computer, spotty internet access, and a camera, I multitasked. Christening Photographer-check. A few portrait sessions while I was there-check. Bonding with new niece (and Brian’s Goddaughter)-check.

Meet Baby Emilia:

Baby Lily

Wednesday, April 14th, 2010

First off…these are not my photos; I wish, I wish, I wish they were, but they’re so not. You’ll be seeing more and more of these types of sittings…see, it all started with a Jersey, an Arsenal jersey to be exact. Brian has been an Arsenal fan since he was 6 years old and when I met a new friend who is also a massive Arsenal fan, and about to have a baby boy; well, a gift for him was obvious.

But, ever since the Arsenal Infant Jersey came into our home (Brian: “can we keep them?” Me: “no, that’s tacky.” Brian: “no, but, we can get them another one” Me: “Brian, no!”) a love of children’s photography was born.

And that lead him to Jenny and Ian (and Baby Lily). When he asked if she would like her newborn photographed, she was delighted and the photos are fantastic. They even tried to get their furbaby in on it (he was a little too excited but Brian managed to sneak in a couple photos anyway).

This part is from Brian: Thank you for letting me climb all over your furniture (in your new house). You guys were up for anything. I was spoiled for choice with the types of photos I was able to take. Thank you for letting me photograph your 12 day old baby-she’s a heartbreaker. :-)

Princess

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

OK, I am not a crazy cat lady…I just really like my cat. A lot. She’ll be 10 years old next month! I found this photo as I was sorting my next blog entry but decided that yes, she needed her own post. Princess, Thud, One Eye, Kitty: I call her all these things and she doesn’t repsond to a single one (except the pop of a can) but she’s my little furbaby.

Becca ~ The Sitting

Monday, November 16th, 2009

This is going to be a two-part post. A few weeks ago, Becca, one of the AMAZING coaches at Crossfit Los Angeles wanted some new photos and I was MORE than happy to take part. This is an ongoing project; the second portion has photos of coaching and some of the students at this amazing gym (check out the link for photos of their grand opening-and yours truly). Becca, thanks SO much for letting me do my thing and being an incredible subject to work with-see you for more coaching photos soon.
