Don't worry, be happy! - Family session CT

So the Momma of this family LOVES photos, but she just hasn't had good luck. Her children are adorable, friendly, and FULL of joy...but the second you turn a camera lens on them you are met with little stone faces. Before we left for the session she gave me a tour of the photo history that adorned her walls and shelves. She has tried MANY of the various quick-ee studious, always with the same disappointing results. She told me often times she ends up getting the photo for free because the studio feels so badly that they don't charge her. No pressure, right?!!! And sure enough at the house the children are a delight, the whole car ride they are smiling at me and giggly, we pull up to the (GORGEOUS) wine vineyard, scope the place out, find a good spot, and I take out my camera. The kids are not happy about this. Not amused at all. SIGH. No worries. I gave them my time and patience - and we coaxed it out of them. What do you think?

Baby Camilla - Newborn Session - CT

Meet Cami!

Who, at a whopping 9 days old, was easily one of the easiest babies I have ever worked with. She was asleep upon my arrival and pretty much stayed that way (but for 2 little episodes of rooting at her hand, and so we took breaks to feed her). Her Momma looked fantastic and shared her incredible birth story with me. Yup folks - little Miss Camilla was born right at home - after a 30 HOUR labor! Go Momma! ...and I've got to tell you, there must be something to it becasue Camilla was the most relaxed and at ease babe (sweet cheeks and happy squeaky noises to boot!)
