Sweet Baby Karis and Her Beautiful Momma

11.16.11

One of my dearest childhood friends recently moved from New England to Virginia. Not only did it give us a chance to rekindle our friendship, but we became new Momma’s together! It has been really special to share this time with her. Our baby girls are a month and a half apart and we’re both so excited to watch them grow up together.

We had a formal photo shoot a week before my due date. We used Jana’s wedding accessories for sweet little props. Karis’s grandmother was in town for the photo shoot and helped with the styling. Very sweet.

It has been just as fun to capture impromptu moments of Momma and Baby during our play dates together. As beautiful as Karis is, her Momma is just as lovely. She is an artist, a traveler, a painter, a creator of beautiful things, a loving wife and a very good friend. It’s pretty clear she’s a spectacular mother, too. Love you, Jana and Karis!

Autumn Reflections

11.11.11

Autumn is, by far, my favorite time of year. As a child, Fall offers a feeling that new things are ahead. New school cloths and school supplies; a new year full of new possibilities. As and adult, Fall means saying farewell to the hot and humid weather, digging out sweaters and hats and a resurgance of energy to be in the kitchen cooking up something warm and tucking in for a cozy day.

This Fall has been even more memorable. Being home with a new baby has meant more time outside, walking my new baby girl down the leave littered streets. We have been soaking in the golden sun and trying to cherish every moment, as I know these days with an infant are fleeting. She is growing before my very eyes.

We spent last week on the New England coast, bundled up, drinking cider, walking and visiting with family and friends. I can’t wait to share those photos. It was the first time since the arrival of my little one that I actually took my camera out just for fun (aside from the 1,000 photos I have taken of her!). I have also been lucky enough to launch back into my business; one wedding and a handful of family sessions in the last two weeks. It felt so good to be back. Nap time for her means editing for me and I couldn’t be happier. More to come…

Enjoy the light. xox
