The blog has moved...

You've reached my old blog... In order to simplify my blog, my portfolio and my life, I combined my blog and site into one. Now you can find my "blog" entries on my Recent Work page. You can also view my portfolio, link to slideshows and client information, and locate anything else you might need all in one place.

This blog contains old session blog posts, and my failed 2011 attempt at "One Image a Day" project in which I force myself to shoot something each day, personal or professional, as a challenge to myself. I'd love to hear what you think of the images as they might slightly stray from the norm. We'll see if I can pick it up for 2012!

November 27, 2009

This session was one of them.  Kacie did a lot of advance planning with me to make this session happen for her family, and for her daughter’s first birthday.  And wouldn’t you know it, the day arrived and it was gross and rainy and dark.  We were sort of hesitant to reschedule because who knows what November can bring weather-wise, but we took a gamble on pushing it out one week and we hit the jackpot!  It was chilly, but not so much that faces were red… it was windy, but just enough to give Kaycie’s hair this awesome lift (this is where I pipe in that I drag huge fan around to make mom’s look like wella-balsam wind blown… and if you don’t know what that is, that should tell you that I am pretty old).

Anyway, the day was awesome, the family was awesome and I really had a great time hanging out with them, learning about their lives, blabbering mindlessly about mine (they humored me).  I think my mother-in-law thought I was a little crazed last night because I just kept saying “Really  Robs, I love my clients… I do… I love them all… really, I love my clients…”  I will say it once and say it again, I am really, really fortunate to be doing this and to meet such cool people that feel like old friends.

So that’s that… check out how seriously cute this little girl is.  I am not joking, just look at her eyes!  Love!
