“To have a loving relationship with a sister is not simply to have a buddy or a confident — it is to have a soul mate for life. “

~Victoria Secunda

Just one of these three darling sisters for now…more to come but had to share.  :)   Happy Friday, everyone!

This little man was such a little ball of energy, and I loved every second of it!  He is such a doll and has the sweetest little smile.  We had fun exploring and running all around, and he got a sweet reward at the end in the form of a colorful Krispy Kreme donut.  Mmmm…makes you want to go grab one right now, right?  I think he enjoyed it, what do you think? :)

“Family faces are magic mirrors.  Looking at people who belong to us, we see the past, present, and future.”

~Gail Lumet Buckley

The train, that is.  :)   My clients are always so willing to do whatever it takes to get that shot!  Hehe!  I swear it wasn’t as bad as it sounds!!  The train didn’t come until after they were already back behind the railing!!  I don’t want to spoil the possible Christmas-card shot, so I won’t post it here! :)

This is the fourth time that I have had the opportunity to photograph this awesome fam’, and it was a blast to see them again!!  I feel so honored and blessed to have such loyal and incredible clients.

I am so super swamped right now, but wanted to pop in and give just a few sneak peeks!  Enjoy!

Yay!  Our super-fun Alice in Wonderland shoot has been featured on one of my fave sites, Inspire Me Baby!

Inspire Me Baby is a blog full of inspiration for the child, baby and family photographer, and I am just honored that we were featured!  Thanks so much!  I would just love it if you head on over to their site + leave us some love under the comments!

I am preparing a full blog post on all of the fabulous websites and blogs that have sweetly featured our Alice shoot–around 15 right now and counting!  Thank you to everyone for the kind words and love, and to each and every one of the fabulously talented designers and women that came together to make this shoot amazing!!  Haven’t seen the Alice in Wonderland images or checked out all of the incredible designers yet?  Check it out here!

“It is in the nature of babies to be in bliss.”

~Deepak Chopra


This little one is just such a sweet, good-natured baby.  She was so happy and it was such a pleasure to photograph her and her parents in their beautiful, historic home.  It used to be a dance hall!  Their home is decorated with beautiful art and fabulous pops of color and was so fun to photograph in and around.  One of my favorite parts of their home is the home theater downstairs in part of what used to be the dance hall!  Thank you for such a fun session–it was wonderful to meet you.  Enjoy your few sneak peeks and I look forward to you seeing your gallery!

“She is your mirror, shining back at you with a world of possibilities. She is your witness, who sees you at your worst and best, and loves you anyway. She is your partner in crime, your midnight companion, someone who knows when you are smiling, even in the dark. She is your teacher, your defense attorney, your personal press agent, even your shrink. Some days, she’s the reason you wish you were an only child.

~Barbara Alpert

Simply put, these two sisters ROCKED our session.  I had an absolute BLAST with them!

Big sis found me from her home in San Diego and let me know that she was interested in having photographs taken with her little sis when she came back home to Arizona to visit.  How sweet, right?!  She shared that they are ten years apart, and it just reminded me so much of my own little sister, who is almost nine years younger than me.  :)

Yay!!  Told you they were fun!!  :)

“A photograph can be an instant of life captured for eternity that will never cease looking back at you.”

More fun + fab {wall art wednesday} today!  Check more posts out here!

Your child’s photo as pop art!  What fun it brings to this room!!  This would look super cute with your doggie, too!  Here is a company to order through.

Blocks of color, interesting photographs…awesome!!  IKEA has some frames that would work perfect, too, AND they are only $2.99!  Easy, peasy!!

This room is so peaceful, isn’t it?  I love when photographs are mixed in with graphic prints in frames.  This would be perfect for that!

{image via room remix}

This idea is awesome for a playroom or a children’s room!  These IKEA frames are so inexpensive and colorful that you can mix sizes and colors and include both your child’s artwork and photographs (hmmm…IKEA should start paying me I’m giving them so much love in this post!).  I’m thinking that photographs of your child with their friends would be particularly cute!  I did have Jackson’s artwork displayed in these on our playroom wall, but they didn’t stay up for long.  :)   I love the idea of the ledge for them to just sit on, away from little hands.  It is my dream and on my to-do list to have a mini photo shoot with all of Jackson’s little buddies so I can adorn his walls with fun images of them all interacting and playing together!

and, this image has no photo wall display, but this is my blog, right? :)   I just adored this room too darn much not to share.  Something about it just caught my eye! What do you think?  Wouldn’t you love to head into dreamland in THIS room?!

I just adore finding new and inspiring walls full of fun and memorable photographs.  Here are some more to get your creative juices flowing, in another installment of {wall art wednesday}.  Do you have a fab wall or area of photographs in your home?  Send ‘em my way–I am working on a {wall art wednesday} post full of YOUR photos!  Yay!  Sit back, relax, enjoy + the inspiring displays of art!

Love, love, love!!  I have a thing for initials, and the pop of the yellow…ahhh!  I just HAVE to do something like this!!  I think it would be perfect for Addie’s room!

…and here is another view of it…

I just can’t get the idea of these huge wallpaper photos out of my mind…I am thinking playroom again here!  :)

Want to display a lot of photos the classic Martha way? :)

Okay, so how simplistic + awesome is this idea?!  SO fun, and how easy would this be?  You could even do it with embellished clipboards–I covered clipboards in fun scrapbook paper + put different ribbon around the ring at the top.  I think I should do some more with photos!  So easy to change out the photo, too!

Remember to send in your inspiration!  Have a great week!
