Hard to believe Christmas is only a week away!! I spent a good portion of the weekend getting ready…wrapping presents for my family and finishing up orders for clients. Gift certificates were thoughtfully delivered to a few lucky ladies, who will find a little something “sweet” in their stockings this year.

There is still time to order a Sweet Lady Jane gift certificate…good towards a 2014 portrait session and an enlargement print of your choice. Order one by Friday and my little helper here will make sure it’s under the tree!!

This time of year is so magical. The decorations are up, Mariah Christmas songs are back, and my kids are fascinated by all the bright lights outside. The holidays will be even more special for my next family, as they have their sweet 6 month old baby girl to celebrate. Matt and Mary Kate contacted me to help capture their 1st Christmas together as a family. We started out in front of the tree, with Miss I looking at (and eating!) the ornaments and then we moved outside for some more wintery shots. I had so much fun with all the amazing outfit changes and accessories!

Matt & MK-It was an honor to be a part of your Christmas season-you have such a beautiful little family:)

In the hours leading up to a recent newborn session, I had two goals in mind. The first was to find light indoors on one of the darkest and rainiest days of the year. The second was to capture the love that completely overwhelms and fills a home when a baby finally arrives. The first goal might be up for debate…but the second was accomplished without even trying. This sweet little baby boy has brought so much joy into his parent’s lives, and to say it was my joy to witness each calm, quiet moment is an understatement.
