three of the things I love about this family...

1. they actually scheduled their session for the day before they moved to washington.. and they were GREAT! I would have been a stressed out mess.

2. they took me to the movie rental coffee house right next to their place.. it was great! wish I could have shot there all day!

3. they are in LOVE with this little man and it shows!













this one is my FAVORITE! hello big beautiful canvas! can you even imagine how happy you would be to see this on your walls every morning?


Ok wait, I love this one too.

Happy Halloween!

this was the craziest year EVER!!

We had a great time, although both Tutt and I are TOTALLY exhausted, with Kash in kindergarten it meant all day friday was spent at costume parades and class parties, 50 five year olds running around cracked out on sugar and dressed up like every super hero I had ever heard of... even some that I hadn't.
Kash insisted on Leah joining him in the Parade and party, it was really great to watch them walk hand in hand, Kash proud of his sister and Leah a little shy and overwhelmed by the crowds. They walked as Jedi "Saken fighter"(the name Kash came up with) and "Ewok Leah" ( simple)
The best part was watching Kash and Leah trick or treating while Tutt and I watched from the sidewalk, this year I can safely say was a whole new level in life, one that I am completely proud, shy and overwhelmed by.

three reasons I heart Maria & Bryan...

1. she has what I like to call Disney eyes. Huge, beautiful, Italian eyes. From the first day I met her I wanted to photograph those eyes!

2. he is a fan of photography. You cannot beat that. He had total trust and excitement when it came time for pictures!

3. they are in love. They have been since they were very young. A true reminder of the crazy journey life takes us on and how if we are meant to be we shall be.


We started off on Thursday with a small session in front of the St. Peter and Paul, her family church.
