Mr. Cullen is my blog star… again! You will find him here, here, and, most recently, here. I truly ADORE watching “my” babies grow:) So, you will see this handsome little fella quite often. Here is a small sneak peek. It was SO HARD to choose just a few because this cutie really rocked my camera! Enjoy… until next time;)

>”I saw a couple walking by they were holding hands
Man, she had that glow
yeah I couldn’t help but notice she was starting to show”

Yesterday, we had a baby shower at my home. I think it’s safe to say that a good time was had by all:) Here are a few shots of the happily expecting parents-to-be (and the adorable cake.) Yes, I normally like my maternity shoots to be further along, but this couple lives about 9 hours away. So, we took what we could get. To see two people so clearly in love and eagerly awaiting the arrival of their baby is almost magical to me. Congratulations again!

A few weeks ago, I blogged a post about Jake. Meet his twin brother, Jesse. He is the most into-every-thing little fella you will ever meet. He is stubborn and determined. He has a temper that will make you laugh. Well, for now it does :) He also has the most impish smile and the best sense of humor. He has sweet kisses and loves to sing. We can’t understand very much of what he is saying just yet, but there is no doubt that HE understands what he is saying. He is also mildy, developmentally delayed. His speech is behind, but he is coming along. There is NEVER a dull moment with this little tornado around;-)
Yep, Jesse got too quiet. Look where I found him! Notice the mess that he caused in Tracer’s room. See the open guinea pig cage?!? Yes, the pet is safe. Also, notice his little rear hanging off the side of the dresser.  <
No sooner than I pulled him off the dresser and stopped to pick up the mess he made, I heard him on my desk. This has to be his FAVORITE place to climb. That is the main reason that I am working on the poolhouse for an office.
He thought THIS was hilarious!
My boys are finally starting to play together, but look what they do. Little Jesse (he is 2lbs and 2 inches smaller than Jake) is the leader and Jake is his follower.
BEFORE the nap…
AFTER the nap… notice the pile of clothes on the floor.
I walked into the room and said… “Jesse, what are you doing?” He turned and put his little finger to his lips and said… “shhhhhh.”     LMBO!
I LOVE this picture from last fall at my Mom’s. It was the last time I got him to sit still for a pic. Well, almost:)

Oh yea, you probably noticed something new here. :) Yep, a new blog! LOVE this one. It has all the features that I was missing in my old, new blog. It is very user and viewer friendly. I am still in the process of transferring posts and working out kinks, but I love it already. I mentioned that already, didn’t I? Be sure and hit the “home” button above and look around. Have a great day!

{ Casting Call }

Thursday, February 11th, 2010

>Good morning to all my wonderful blog readers! I have some great news and a wonderful opportunity to share today:) It all begins with a casting call. You see, I feel that I am “pretty good” with newborns, but I want to be AWESOME! How do you get awesome??? Well, with practice… remember that old saying, practice makes perfect;) So, I am announcing a casting call for newborns. I am offering prints at a reduced rate and no sitting fee. Extra special things will be given to multiples;)  I’m not going to set a specific number of offers. I’m just going to play it by ear:) So, if you know of anyone who just had an adorable baby or is about to have a baby, send them my way. You can either respond here or on my facebook fan page. There is a catch, I need the babies to be less than 3 weeks old, preferably less than 2 weeks old. This is the stage where they are still super sleepy, curly, and squishy. Take a look at the gorgeous babies below. Also, these are a couple of examples of  the wonderful storyboards that I can create for you. I look forward to hearing from you!

{ Colin is growing too fast! }

>“Little boys come in all shapes and sizes,
Shy and adventurous, full of surprises,
With misshapen halos and mischievous grins,
Small dirty faces, and sweet, sticky chins.
They’ll keep you so busy, and yet all the while
Nothing can brighten the world like their smile.
And no greater treasure has brought homes more joy
Than a curious, active, and lovable boy!”

If you follow my blog, then you will remember sweet Colin from herehere, and here. It has been awhile since we have had a playdate… and it showed. Little Colin make me work for his attention like I have never worked before. lol! But, this adorable cutie is more than worth it:) Here is his precious sneak peek. 

I couldn’t help but add this one. Colin already knows the BEST… Nikon;)

D is for dazzling ;)

Here is a good example of a “different” use for a session. Miss Diane braved the cold and wind to update her modeling portfolio. Gorgeous is all I can say! She has some of the most perfect features I have ever seen! Hope you enjoy your sneak peek:) Lots more to come!
