I'm BAAAAACK!

Not to overemphasize my pathetic lack of blogging in the last month or so, I'd like to announce that.. YES. I AM BACK. Winter is such a dreary photography time. Maybe because I love sunlight. And I love warm weather. And there's just something about the dreary grey/blue light of winter that makes my camera cringe. But no worries! Today, I sunned myself on a patio like a happy kitty... and I felt my soul revive. With a camera in one hand and a journal in the other... I came to life again. :) Look for more photography news... and.... as always, every blog entry is better with a photo!

This one makes me laugh! Look away and then look again.

Yup, I'm still laughing! Sometimes babies don't like picture-taking time. No worries to all the mommies out there, this negative moment was very brief. Nice pictures of these two little girl nieces o' mine are coming sooon... Stay tuned! :)

Baby Serenity - Portraits

I have been doubly blessed in the last month with new nieces! Baby Serenity was born in southern Maryland in early January, so it took me a little more time to make the trek down south to meet her... but I made it worth my while. Pretty sure this auntie held baby Serenity for about 6 hours total! :) My new favorite hobby is holding babies! Well, second only to taking portraits of babies!!

Serenity is a little dollface, with huge blue eyes and perfect little fingers & toes that I loved to stare at.

Who says babies don't smile?

Funny Friends... on a Winter Walk

While I am stuck inside my house during yet ANOTHER snowstorm, editing pictures from the last few weeks, I thought I would remember one lonely day of beautiful weather... A couple weeks ago, there were a few friends hanging out at my house on a Saturday. Liz, Kelsey and I decided to go for a walk --- since the weather was gorgeous!! Trekked through the snow, to my favorite coffee shop, and made some cute and funny pictures along the way... enjoy!




And then things got funnier...
