Olivia, 5 years old

I can’t believe that Olivia just turned 5 years old.  I’ve been taking her pics since she was a baby.  I love watching these children grow.  I feel really honored by clients who return again and again…trusting me to be a part of their special memories.  It creates a really special bond between us.

This little girl is so sweet, and funny, and just plain charming.  She delights me every time.

Nathalie, High School Senior (and a very special person to me)

Well, folks, this is the girl who started it all.  Eight years ago, Nathalie, her mom, and I went to the park and took the pic that was the cover of my website for the longest time.

Now she’s graduating high school.  I just can’t believe it.  This session was really special to me.  I love this girl.  And in remembering where I began my business and where I am now I feel so blessed and lucky and grateful that I am able to live my life loving what I do.

Anyway…here is the pic that started it all:

And here she is now–all grown up. An absolutely beautiful young woman, inside and out:

Lauren, 2 years old

I can’t believe Lauren is 2 already!  They grow so fast.  It was great seeing her, Mommy, and Grandma for some outdoor fun.

Emmy, almost 3

I’ve been taking this little angel’s pictures since she was a newborn.  I love, love, love her.  I only have time to post quickly now but I’m sure I’ll add more later.  Look at her giving me some “sassy”…did I mention that I love her?

PS…that is the moon in the background.  It was gorgeous!
