Now offering Birth Sessions

It's no secret how passionate I am about birth and the time period (that seems frozen for women living in it) surrounding birth. I am a part of the leadership team of a local non-profit, The Motherhood Collective, which greatly nurtures this passion of mine. Our target niche is a small one: women in the short (yet, oh so long) season between hoping-to-be-expecting and the postpartum period. My favorite group to connect with are mamas with growing bellies who are educating themselves about their birth options and planning for the future of their precious babe. I could talk birth for hours.

Letters to Sunday | 2 Years Old

Letters to Sunday | 2 Years Old

Sweet, sweet Sunday,

What can I say? I know I'm biased, but, you're basically perfect. This past year has been amazing. You've grown from a crawling baby to a walking, talking, generous, affectionate and loving little girl. I struggle writing these letters these days because I feel like I sound like a broken record. "I love you"  "You're the best"  "You're amazing"  "You're so beautiful!" I could go on. Instead, I thought I'd approach this letter a little differently this time.

Happy Birthday Sunday!

Happy Birthday Sunday!

Happy Birthday to our sweet, loving, and smiley precious girl!! 

We are having such a fun day together! Tommy stayed home and we jumped RIGHT into potty training as soon as she woke up and she's doing GREAT! She's napping right now so I'm going to make this quick and go finish wrapping some of her presents! This morning she got a potty for her birthday... muahahaha. :) More fun to come later!

I guess it was a little over a year ago I ran into Cheryl from 4thGenerationDesigns at a local, in-person craft/etsy show. I immediately LOVED her products. Of course I dropped the tiny fact that I was a photographer and I'd love to use her sweet headbands and hats on my little subjects. Soon after meeting, we reconnected and Cheryl sent me some goodies to play with. Little Brooklyn was my first model. 

Halloween 2013

Halloween 2013

I can honestly say I never, ever thought I'd be typing a blog post with that title. You see, we're just not huge Halloween fans around here. I LOVE costumes and dressing up. But that's basically the extent of our enthusiasm. Tommy doesn't appreciate the money I pour into my costumes (he wasn't allowed to celebrate the holiday as a child), I don't appreciate the piles of candy I assume will be piling up in our future, and neither of us love the idea of spending the evening with ghosts and goblins. (Or zombies? And vampires?) 

But my parents are in town this week and they were enthusiastic about Sunday Trick-or-Treating for the holiday.
