looking forward to leopard

apple is releasing their new OS at the end of month (aka: leopard) and i pretty much can't wait. here's a mac ad for your viewing pleasure :)

michael + sarah

on friday night i ventured around downtown with these two for their engagement session. what a great time we had! they are such a fun couple to be around, were willing to try any of my ideas and even threw in a few of their own. michael kept us laughing the entire night! thanks for being such good sports and sweating it out in the heat. looking forward to november 24!

jake + anna claire

ooh, i love newborns! jake and anna claire were 10 weeks old when i met them. it was so fun to see their very different personalities and looks. when i got there, they were both well rested, fed and warm. it made for the perfect newborn session! i had such a great time shooting these two that it even gave me the slightest urge to have one of my own. :) thanks to the family for having me over. i hope you enjoy these!

the moms might like this one

too funny. you're gonna love it.

sarah grace

meet sarah grace. she is a new big sister to twins, loves the little mermaid, is really good at recounting the story of the little mermaid and has a new found love for colorful lollipops. i visited her home to take photos of her new twin siblings, but also snuck away and grabbed a few of her. she was shy at first but had been anticipating her time in front of the camera all morning long. isn't she adorable?



keep close because i will soon be sharing from my time with her new twin brother and sister.

also, thank you to everyone who sent get well wishes! i am feeling better and ready to say good-bye to the cold virus for good... it just likes to stick around for a while. have a great weekend!

so there's this race...

... that is going on among a group of photographers throughout the country. they are running and competing against each other to see who can rack up the most miles over the course of 30 days. in order to do this, they're using a sensor to track the mileage that hooks up to the latest ipod. i really wanted to be a part of this, but don't have the right ipod in order to be a part of the competition. so, i'm doing a little race against myself to get into better shape and back into a consistent workout. over the next 30 days, until november 4, i will do my normal run everyday and will also cut refined sugar out of my diet. you may be wondering how this involves you...? well, if i miss any days on running or cheat on the sugar, i will give away a complimentary weekday session. the way it works... be the first to email me once you see that i haven't made my run. it's that simple! if i get lazy... you win. :) stay tuned!

cold season is here

brian gave it to me. i hope i will now be immuned for the rest of the season. i'll be out today and will return when my head feels like its normal size again.
