Happy Hallowe'en!

Ooo... it's that time of year!

This is the first year that there's a baby in our family to dress up! Here's Kaden at 4 months old as Mr. Pumpkin and the Pillsbury Doughboy although I think he pulls off a rather distinguished chef Gordon Ramsay of Hell's Kitchen.

This year I think I'm going watch my first horror movie in years....I'm such a chicken when it comes to horror flicks. The movie? Amityville which my co-worker lent me...

Have a happy and safe Hallowe'en!

Custom Baby Announcements!

With all the newborn baby photos I've been taking in the last couple of months, I've started to make custom baby announcements! Here's a sample for baby Madison who I took photos of last month. I can customize to include the full name, birthdate, birthweight and parents name.

Do ask me for more details :)

Baby Colin at 3 Months Old! Family Photo Session

How time goes oh so fast! Back in July I took photos of tiny newborn Colin at 1 week old and now he's 3 months old! He smiles and laughs and he's very charismatic! With baby Bob Marley tunes playing in the background we did an indoor and then a quick outdoor photo session at a park nearby.

Thanks again to parents Alex & Candace (hope you guys use the photos for your Christmas cards :)

Newborn Baby Mariana at 4 weeks old! Newborn Photography Session

What a busy month! I'm finally able to post some photos since I get an extra day to work on things during this long weekend.

Last month I did a photo session for 4 week old Mariana - she is such a little pumpkin! Mariana is half Mexican, half Japanese and she is a hungry little one as she was eating for most of the photo session and then snoozed away at the end so we got a good mix of photos of her awake and sleeping.

Thanks to proud parents Michi & Rick! (OMG Rick, you crack me and Michi up!)

Here's a snapshot of my 3.5 month old nephew Kaden and my mom that I took over the weekend. He now laughs with sound and he is such a chatty little one!
