Glowing.  In every sense of the word.  This stunning Mom (and Dad!) to be are absolutely adorable. We were blessed with one of the most beautiful days of this year so far this past Saturday -  54 Degrees and blue skies – can you ask for anything more!

So we headed down to the waterfront in Newburyport and decided to do the majority of our session out there.  The historic feel of the city matched with the excitement of these parents to be made for a rockin’ session!

Jessica was rockin' these fantastic red shoes! I was so excited I saw what she was going to wear -- What a hot mama to-be!! Love this shot!

a moment of quiet surrounded by love.

See! Perfect day - Perfect company

Much Love,

This sweet baby girl was a dreeeammmm at our session. She slept all but about 10 minutes, just enough time to fill her tiny belly and then it was back to sleep.. Heavenly!

Her stunning Mommy tells me she is pretty much like this all the time. As a mother of two little blessings that loved to be up every hour and a half, I was jealous! Keep it up little one..

Despite making her grand arrival a month early, Sweet Celia is perfect and has stolen the hearts of all those around her.. And here is exactly why..

In the arms of her Daddy..

Chubby Cheeks

Is there anything sweeter then newborn piggies - I say no!

My personal favorite.. Can you believe someone made this blanket? - it matches my hat perfectly!!

Heather and Tim, It was so great to meet you — I can’t wait to show you the rest of your gallery — We’ll be in touch soon!

Much Love,

I am so excited and so very grateful for this opportunity.

After I had Molly I spoke with the wonderful people at my OBGYN’s office and asked them if they might be interested in allowing me to decorate their office with my images.  They had just finished renovating and with a blank canvas I thought my images would be a nice compliment to their waiting room, exam rooms and hallways.  Lucky for me, they fell in love with my images and style and were gracious and kind and allowed me to pick 16 images to display in their Danvers office.  They have asked me to display my work in two other locations as well.. super exciting!
I chose images that were mostly newborns and toddlers given the location and I couldn’t be happier with the way they look!  The best part is some of the images are actually from patients of the office – I always get text messages or emails when a Mom goes in and gets to see her little blessings photograph on the wall.  It warms my heart to know how happy it makes them

Check out some snapshots of just the waiting room I took today while dropping off more cards with all my information… (there were supposed to be three images per wall but they ended up moving some around so they could add them to the exam rooms instead..)

**NOTE:  If you are a patient of Essex County OBGYN, you receive a special promotion on your session fee and print order when you schedule your session!  All the information is located on the cards at the reception desk.  Be sure to mention it when you call to book!

My heart is breaking right now for the sweetest family.  Remember this family:

The cutest, happiest, most delightful family.  I just spoke with another favorite client (friend), Erin, who informed me that sweet Charlotte has just been diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia..

On a positive note, we are blessed to live 30 minutes from some of the best hospitals in the world here in Boston.  Charlotte is in Boston now beginning her treatments and will hopefully begin the road to recovery.    For those of you who are the praying type, please keep her and her family in your prayers.  Her sweet spirit, her precious smile, and her adorable heart needs it.

If you’d like to keep up on Charlotte’s progress you can follow here her:

Charlotte – I’ll be looking forward to our next tea-party!  Get better love! xxoo

Ted and Constance.  Our love and prayers are with you and your family.  We will be here to lift you up and help you through this difficult time and see you onto the sunshine. Please know we are surrounding you in love and light…  We will be wishing on stars for you…

**And to my photographer friends – THIS is why keeping all your photos from sessions is important.  This session now has an entirely new meaning and I will for sure be going back through the images I didn’t show to see what is there.  Another reminder why I am honored to do what I do and feel blessed to share the gift of memories and moments…

Much Love, Many Prayers and lots of Hugs.

xxoo

To say its been a busy month would be an understatement!  I have been blessed with some of the greatest clients and sessions and our family has had some amazing family memories.  I can’t believe the end of August is already here – How did that happen!?

I have a LOT to blog about – I have a LOT to catch up on and I promise I will.. for now I will leave you with two recent sessions — two recent blessings — two precious little newborns I fell in love with!

Liam is the newest addition to one of my bestest college friends, Lara.  She and Jason welcomed this sweet baby boy a few weeks ago. Needless to say – I couldnt wait to get my camera on him – its always such an honor to photograph your friends child(ren.) I never take it lightly.   Lara and Jason – Liam is perfect. I love him. I cannot wait to smooch his face again! Molly said she can’t wait to meet him too <3 – Much love to all of you.. xoxo

look at his little cheeks – i just want to pinch them!

apparently I was very funny!

Next up is another sweet friend Heather’s nephew.  Can you even stand this little mans cuteness!  He was a dream to photograph. So perfect and sleepy.  His Mom and Dad couldn’t be more happy to have him here.  Heather told me when he was born he was pretty stinkin cute… I have to agree!  It seems like we were just photographing Heather’s daughter Emma as a newborn – I can’t believe she’s already one!!??  Just proof that these little newborns grow too quickly!  Meghan and Steve – Congratulations on your newest addition – We’ll be in touch as soon as the rest of your gallery is ready.  Much love…

love that little hand and all that hair!!!

all tuckered out

I will also be blogging about our family trips to storyland (again!)- boston and NYC  — Jackson and Molly updates – and a few announcements for my clients — so much to report! Thank you for being loyal readers and sticking by me while we’ve been MIA!

Big Hugs — Stay cool!
