Fall by far is my most favorite season. I love the colors, the smells and the romantic feeling of it all. I love a big puffy sweatshirt or jacket. I love wearing scarves and hats (more lightweight ones though). I love snuggling by a fire. I just love fall. After I dropped E off at preschool, I went on a shooting adventure. I was hoping for a more fall-ish scene but being by the beach, it’s hard to get that without having to drive awhile. Don’t get me wrong - I would totally go the distance to get the perfect shot but I think I may be coming down with something, the flu or whatnot and being pregnant, I have to learn to take it easy. So, sadly, my photo shoot was cut short and I headed home to get some good relaxation and rest.
I hope you enjoy what I did take though. Look at that bokeh! SWOOOON!
Let’s pretend that I haven’t been a bad blogger for the past 6 months.
There’s been quite a few changes in my life since I posted my last entry.
The very first and biggest is that we found out that we’re expecting our second child - another little boy! We’re so lucky! He is expected to arrive February 20th, 2010.
These ultrasound pictures were taken at 10.5 weeks.
We’ve since at another scan at 20 weeks but little man was moving around like crazy so no good pictures from then.
This little bean is my excuse for being completely gone… I was SO sick with morning sickness. Really, why do they even call it morning sickness when it lasts A L L D A Y L O N G?
Our big boy started preschool this fall as well. Truthfully, I was a nervous wreck… there’s reasons why I am a stay at home mom and I felt like enrolling him in preschool might take away from those reasons. I have been proven totally wrong though! Ethan has been learning so much and I am so proud of him. He loves his teacher and the interaction with the other kiddos there and I love the 6 hour break. I get excited every day when I go pick him up. I’m excited to hear him talk about what he did that day and the things he painted/drew/created.
Lastly, I have been trying to find the right look and feel for my website and blog for what seems like forever now. There’s going to be some BIG changes done here. I hope you’re just as excited as I am! I finally have a logo and brand that I love and truly represents me and what my photography is all about, thanks to my new friends at Luxecetera. I can’t wait to share it!! Patience is a virtue though, right? I am so excited to just get it out there that I feel like a little kid on Christmas Eve but these things cannot be rushed but I can tell you that it’ll be soon!!
My favorite pictures of E & I over the this last year . Just snapshots but they are us together. It’s hard when you’re the photographer. 
Before his first haircut, do you see those curls?! Sigh, miss them!
Babywearing is special to us and definitely was a huge part of our lives this past year.
First Halloween Trick-or-Treating!
Sadly this has made me realize we don’t nearly have enough pictures together. 
A change is definitely in the works!
E today, taken with my 300. I love it.
Mister Connor is the most adorable squishiest 10 month old EVAAARRRR! Do you see this precious face? I could have spent all day with him, luckily I get to spend next Wednesday with him, shooting at The Eldredge House!
Thanks Brooke & Joe for letting me photograph your beautiful baby boy!
There’s a fabulous contest going on right now! One of my favorite bloggers, Jodi over at MCP Actions is teaming up with my favorite lab, Color Inc. and is offering a free Gallery Wrap Canvas for 3 winners and 2 runner-ups. Woot woot! The judges are the CEO and staff and Color Inc. and also Jodi. They are looking for images that would look best blown up on canvas. Top 10 from them will be posted for judging by readers of MCP Actions! How fun, right?
I might be biased a little bit (okay, okay a LOT) but I think this little number would look awesome. Yes, my mommy googles are heavy on this image but one has to try right?
At 100% so y’all can see it’ll look good…

Sweetest newborn ever. She was born 4 weeks early and is exactly 3 weeks today!
Thanks for letting me photograph your little beauty, Trish!
Isn’t she just gorgeous?!? 34 weeks and SO tiny still - lucky!! I cannot wait to meet the new little man!
This was her Baby Shower Invite. I asked her to bring along some props and she brought this - perfect! I never thought to bring along an invite, but why not? Especially when they are this adorable!
Doesn’t she have the most perfect preggo belly?
