Picture Day at School

Yesterday was Mia’s first Picture Day at school!
I spent extra time fixing her hair and even put mousse in it.  And she actually got to wear a nice knit dress from Gymboree.  She usually wears what I call “play clothes” because the activities she likes to do at school are those that are messy.  [...]

Boys Will Be Boys

I was a Psychology major in College and took a few classes on Child Development, but I didn’t quite understand the depth of gender differences until I had my second child (a boy) after having a girl first.
For two and a half years, I had quiet moments with Mia — talking, tickling, laughing, doing crafts, [...]

My Photography Bio

Howdy!  These are some common questions people ask me, so I thought I’d write them down and share my answers with everyone.
Hopefully you’ll know me a little better after reading this.

I have been interested in photography since I was a young child, about eight years old.
I got my first SLR camera (a Nikon, no doubt) [...]

Newborn Tejan

Welcome to the World, Baby Tejan!
At 5 weeks old, Tejan (pronounced:  tay-jen) is very alert and active.  His eyes were open for a good part of the shoot and he knew how to track the sound of his mom’s voice.
You heard it here first:  Tejan will be a heart-breaker when he grows up!  He and [...]

Brunch with Soon & Christine

We had brunch at my long time friend, Soon’s place.  His wife, Christine, cooked all night to make us homemade dimsum!
I just have 2 words to describe the food:  DEEEE LICIOUS!
They also have an amazing house that they took 1 year to renovate.
Of course the things I took photos of are the things that strike [...]

The Bedtime Crazies

I know what you’re thinking:  Photos of your kids again?
I can’t help myself.
I decided to take this month off from photoshoots because I wanted to catch up on back-end stuff, like marketing and updating my websites.  But instead, I find myself yearning for subjects to photograph.  And if you’re following my blog, you know [...]

An Ordinary Day

It was an ordinary Sunday at the park…

I know what you’re thinking.  We ARE a nutty family!

Lawrence was trying to entice Ian to slide down.  He waved and cheered and smiled.

My “first born”, Henry!  He is [...]
