Testing Out my Fancy New Blog...How do I look?

Thank you Nikki, for making me look so great!

BFF's FOREVER

OK, bear with me if I shed a little tear from being all tingly happy for my Gracie. It is so good to have good friends, kwim? And Gracie has her Sydney (aka Siddy Widdy). These precious girls have been friends since they were under three years old. They had their first sleep over at our house when they were about 3. Wish I had those pics to show you but I was a film girl then. They were dressed in tutus and drawing on each other's faces with chalk. I have pictures of them jumping on Gracie's bed at like 10:00 at night. What a night! That was the night in which we fondly remember Siddy coming out sand saying, "Can I have a paia of scissas?" And I said, "No I don't think so." And she said, " Well, can I have a knife then?" Phht!! They finally crashed for the night after coloring on Grace's dresser and giggling for forever.

Syd is here for the week (maybe the week, a few days at least) and these girls are having such fun! They are experimenting with mixing soaps and drinks (don't ask), running through the sprinkler, bothering MaxMan, singing and dancing, shopping for matching outfits, picking wildflowers, watching girlie movies and going swimming later on. How much more fun could two little girls have?


Look at them now!

Finally, Miss "S" Has a Sneak Peek!

It isn't very often I do this, but I saw this little one while out and about shopping and she was so adorable with her porcelain skin, gorgeous big eyes and dark hair that I had to give Mom my card. And she called me! It was my great pleasure to photograph this beautiful baby girl who almost looks more like a baby doll than a real baby! Oh those eyes....

There are lots more images to comeMom and Dad, so I will be working hard to get caught up!

Sneak Peek for the M Family... FINALLY!

Most everyne knows that I have been fighting this crazy eye infection that left me blind in my left eye, in a ton of pain, and extremely sensitive to light. I have several clients, one of them the M family, who are waiting so patiently for their sneak peeks. THANK YOU everyone for your patience as I get through this! I am much better, seeing better, feeling better, and able to come out of my dark room! I am catching up, slowly but surely.

So here you are, beautiful M's! I had such a great time with your super sweet children. I am so glad to know you all!

And I just couldn't decide whether I like the black and white or color better in this one. I love them both!

What I've Been Up To...

Super Star Photog Megan Peck has been keeping me company for the last two days..seriously you guys, I remember when Megan would comment on my Better Photo entries and I would think, OMG she noticed me! Megan Peck left me a comment!! And now she actually hung out with me- I have arrived! Who hooo!


She has two of the coolest kids ever. They came in and seemed to settle in and make like best friends with my kids, which left Megan and I to do the thing that photogs do when they get together- shoot and then play with our new creations for hours. Here's what we did last night....





I think this is my new favorite image- this is Oliva







Grace and Olivia in their matching pettis


How cute is that?!! I love the vintagey treatment on these...









Then today we headed for downtown Littleton. Of course, no child should come to Littleton without first visiting the LARGEST candy counter in the world at CHUTTERS..MMMM...



Okay, is that not the cutest thing you've ever seen? Maybe I'm biased, but folks, come on, she's cute, isn't she?




Max is dying of thirst here. Near tears he's so thirsty. I make him pose in front of the big film case thing at Foto Factory. Nice Mom, huh? It's all about the picture.


There she is again, sweet little punk that she is. Oh, and by the way, I have only two words regarding Ella...POTTY. TRAINED.



Okay, now Megan, don't get mad over this shot. Seriously chick, if I had a hiney like that, I would want SOMEONE to blog about it. (Plus, I only took one other shot of Megan while she was here and it was blurry.) Derriers that look like this should get serious attention. You should buy some of those sweats that have JUICY written on the back. I mean it.


Ian just fell in the water. He was such a good sport. Besides, it was like 89 here today so I bet it felt good. Maybe it wasn't an accident...hhhmmmm....Ella fell in too, and then Olivia.. I sense a conspiracy going on here...




Slip slidin away..now how fun is that?





I have more, but I had to stop somewhere. Plus, the M Family and the L Family are dying for their sneak peeks. Soon, I promise!

Sneak Peek for the H Family...

...Or should I say the "Cool" family? Seriously, I felt a little like a dork around these guys. They were way too cool for me... Even Mom, who is cooler than me just for raising 4 cool boys. Very impressive work, Nathalie!




There's lots more good stuff to come! TTYS!
