I photographed adorable one-week-old Charles (and his Mohawk!) the other day. More from the shoot to come, but for now, here’s a preview image.

Thanks, Leymis and Kavin, for letting me snap some photos of your new little man!

Ella, 4 months – Cleveland Photographer

During our last trip to Cleveland, I photographed 4-month-old Ella at her home. While she was less than thrilled about our photo shoot (and would’ve much preferred naptime to me snapping shots of her with just a diaper sitting in her Bumbo chair), I don’t think her dissatisfaction came through in the final images. She was a sweet little one (with incredible cheeks) and felt much better with some snuggles from her mom throughout the session.

Here are a few that I like best from Ella’s shoot:

I love the look of deep thought in this one:

I’m a big fan of monogrammed bloomers, and Ella’s were super cute. Here she is having some tummy time on her big-girl bed that awaits her:

We snapped a few shots in her Christmas outfit outside before she was really over the session. I believe a neighbor yelled over the fence, “Is that a baby in a bucket?!” Yes, sir, it is. And she looks mighty cute in it.

One final shot of her amazing eyes and cozy winter hat. I love how she’s looking adoringly at her mom. 🙂

Just wishing my little E a happy 5-month birthday (yes, I’m obsessed – he’s obsessable! and yes, I make up words for him, like “amageous” – amazing and gorgeous). So excited to celebrate his 6-month with him! Sending snuggles from FL to Cleveland (way too far).

Ethan, 4.5 months – Visit to Sarasota

As much as I hate to accept it, Ethan’s trip (oh, and my sister and brother-in-law’s – they understand, though, that it’s all about E) to Sarasota is almost over. They are heading back to snowy Cleveland today, so I’m taking a little time right now to post a selection of photos I’ve taken of E during these last couple of weeks.

Here are some of the images from his holiday session that were not chosen for his New Year’s card:

E New Year's Card Photo Shoot

And from E’s first visit to the beach, which was incredibly short lived due to his sleepiness. At least we captured it in the 10 minutes we were there. He was mesmerized by the sand/shells – probably a very interesting feeling on his feet!

E at the Beach

And the scene from his poolside shoot…

E's Poolside Photo Shoot

A few images from the session:

Some family shots can be found here.

Thanks for a great trip, little man! Can’t wait to smooch you in Cleveland in February (yes, I said “can’t wait” and “Cleveland in February” in one sentence – only E can inspire that statement out of me). One month and counting. I miss him already, and he’s right here next to me playing away on his new exersaucer:

Ethan Happy New Year

Ethan’s holiday photo that we made into a New Year’s card from Tiny Prints. He’s either ringing in the New Year and inviting you to as well, dealing Black Jack, or participating in a barbershop singing group… He’s adorable, nonetheless!

Happy New Year, everyone!

Ethan and Birthday Dinner

Posted in Children, Families, My Family, Random, Sarasota area, tagged , , on December 22, 2009| 1 Comment »

Add to FacebookAdd to Twitter Share by email

Today was great for two big reasons: one, Ethan (nephew) is here, and two, my mom made a spectacular dinner in honor of my birthday that I enjoyed with my parents, my sister and brother-in-law (whilst Ethan slept soundly in the other room), my husband, and my aunt and uncle. 🙂 (Knock on wood.)

This will be my last post until Monday the 28th, so I hope everyone who celebrates Christmas has a fabulous one and that everyone who doesn’t gets some restful time off. We’re off to Boston to brave the frigid temperatures for the Campbell Family Christmas. Palm trees just don’t cut it like snow on the ground, Christmas Eve wildness with the Sacco crew, and presents flying all over the living room before dawn on Christmas day…

Here are a few photos from today.

Husband:

Sisser, Jonah, and edible baby E braving the “razor blade” Florida grass for some photos:

D, J, & E

E loves to fly, and I am loving his smiley happy face and the blue, blue sky:

Super E

What are you so concerned about, E? (Possibly the fact that we kept him up a tad too long when he should’ve been heading in for a nap. He was an excellent sport but very, very sleepy.)

Ethan

Yummm. Best salad and pastry creation:

Salad

And delicious flan/crunchy caramel dessert:

Flan

🙂 I love making adults wear birthday party hats, if only just to see how silly everyone looks trying to have intelligent discussions (or not intelligent discussions – just even sitting there, really) whilst wearing them. No, I didn’t post a photo of said adults in the hats, because I have a feeling I’d get in big trouble. This will have to do:

Hat

Have a great rest of the week! Be back Monday to defrost.

Jack, 7 months – Cleveland Photographer

It’s a very proud feeling to receive holiday cards with photos I’ve taken on them. I like knowing that I’ve had a hand in capturing people’s families and children in a way that makes them think, “Yes, this represents us well – let’s send this photo out to our world!” Puts a big smile on my face. 😀

So I was very happy when Jack’s mother Katie told me they used my photo for their holiday card this year, and, like Lily, the card reminded me to share photos from their shoot. Jack and his parents, Katie and Josh, were such a fun family to photograph – Jack had such a great time chilling in the leaves. He was a sport the whole time and waited until we were completely done before announcing he was hungry. 🙂 Thanks, Jack!

Here are my favorites:

It never failed to make Jack laugh when his dad said, “Good morning!” in a sing-songy voice. Apparently Jack loves the morning!

Jack in the grass

Tummy time didn’t last long, but I think he looks adorable laying amongst the leaves:

Jack - tummy time

Time to get up! Josh looks on as the smile-master (my silly noises had nothing on “Good morning!”):

Jack standing

Love a baby in a bucket! Jack loved it, too, once there were leaves inside that he could munch on. And check out that adorable fuzzy hair!

Jack in bucket with leaves

Hanging out with his mama (and giggling at Josh again!):

Jack and Katie

First time down his slide – ever!

Jack and slide

Some family photos:

Jack, Josh and Katie

Christmas outfit time!

Family Christmas

And Moose joins the family photo. Jack was clearly more interested in Moose than me and my crazy faces and noises:

And one last photo of Jack ready for his first Christmas, stocking in hand!

Merry first Christmas, Jack!

Anabella, 2.5 Weeks – Sarasota Newborn Photography

Posted in Newborns, Sarasota area, tagged , , , on December 12, 2009| 2 Comments »

After little Vivian’s session, I met Anabella (and her mom Monica, dad Andrea, and handsome brother Dylan, but this one was just for Anabella). Anabella was sound asleep when I got there and was not pleased by the moving and changing we did to get her photo-ready. After a meal, she was much happier and fell right asleep for pretty much the entire session.

Here are some of her photos:

Anabella

Dreaming of Christmas.

Anabella

Sporting her adorable monogrammed bloomers.

Anabella

The cutest package.

Anabella

I love the contrast in textures of the iron bench and straw basket against the soft blanket and baby skin.

Anabella

So peaceful. And she looks just like her brother in this one.

Vivian, 2.5 Weeks – Sarasota Newborn Photography

Posted in Children, Families, Newborns, Sarasota area, tagged , , , , , on December 10, 2009| Leave a Comment »

My previous post highlighted the adorable knitted works of OrganicMama’s Shop using photos from little Vivian and Anabella’s sessions, but I think each of the girls deserves her own little post.

Vivian and Anabella’s mothers are two friends who each delivered their baby girls on the same day, and I had the pleasure of meeting them both two and a half weeks later! I met Vivian first, and her awesome mom Kasey and big sister Charlie.

Here are a few from Vivian’s session. Anabella’s to come shortly. (BTW, how gorgeous are their names?!)

Vivian

Basket o' Vivian.

Vivian

Looks like she's on a very important phone call.

Vivian

I can't believe how alert she was, little ham. Look at her fighting sleep and staring right into the camera.

Vivian & Charlie

Vivian gets some love from her big sister (who's quite the model herself).

Charlie

Although Kasey warned Charlie about her unruly hair not being photo-ready, Charlie was ready with an adorable grin the second I turned the lens on her. Can't wait to have a Charlie session and capture her awesome ensembles and poses.

Greta

I just had to include a shot of the beautiful Greta, their one-year-old Golden and possibly the most well-behaved puppy I've seen (and a Golden, no less!). So, so sweet.

Vivian

And one last shot of Vivian looking super scrumptious and finally about ready for a nap.
