Because it’s been SO long since I’ve blogged them, I figured I’d reintroduce them to you. I feel like I haven’t shot my kids in so long and the light was so nice when I went to pick them up from school and I just happened to have my gear in the car, so they were patient with me for a few [I am WELL aware that 3 different people heard me not only scolding them, but also bribing them, but I am going to pretend they just willingly participated].
This time of year just feels like a disaster. I have so many sessions, all of which I love. Really love [I don't blog a lot of them because I don't want to ruin holiday card and gift surprises]. And I say “I am all booked,” but then I feel bad that I am not shooting more and fitting in last minute clients, so I go ahead and book. Then I realize that I’ll never get it all done in time. Then I tell myself that I always get it all done in time. So as soon as I promised myself “no more sessions,” I went and booked two more. So the net of it is, I am DONE with sessions [meaning I am not booking any more, I am still shooting the ones I have scheduled]. For now. If I can have every current client taken care of (meaning galleries out and cards designed and orders in process), I will open up sessions for the first week of December for anyone who can stand to be last minute. So that’s that. [For the few people that are on my wait list, I'll get with you to see what we can do].
In the mean time, I think things are good here. Kids are happy. Owen is happy. I am happy. My ears are still a mess, but that’s just the way my ears work. Mom is better, and yes, I’ve already roped her into coming up to sit for a few hours tomorrow, because I am just like that [actually, it's really just because we miss her!]. I am on the count down to my big birthday, lots of reflections, but I think of how good things are and I realize that the big-four-oh is going to be awesome because mentally I’ve been getting younger ever years since about 32! Enough of that. Here are the kids.
I love how she looks at him. She loves him so much.
Except when she is trying to push him off her. And actually, she’s a little more mean to him than he is to her. But she’s a chick, and a beautiful one at that, so there you have it, she can be.
And this. This is pure unbridled four year old love. There are just not enough words.
Happiness is firing off one shot and getting this. And then almost fallen backwards into a swampy cold pond. But I got it. And that’s all that matters. I might love this one into a canvas. Everything that is imperfect about it is so perfect to me.
Two of the cutest kids around!
Love them all… can’t believe how much they’ve grown since just June!
Gorgeous!
awww…they are so cute – and look soooo much alike! And Janey’s hair has grown so much! Adorable!
They take my breath away, angel faces
OMG, they are so precious! Thanks for sharing them.
I love the one of her looking at him. These are amazing.
Great photos!!! They are so adorable!
Eeek! Kristina! Your kids are adorable! I love how she looks at him too, so sweet. That last one is perfection!
