Five Fairfield Families!

Last weekend I went to Fairfield, CT to photograph 5 families for holiday pictures. What a great idea to combine a whole group of friends and their families and have one great big photoshoot! They get a good deal, I take a ton of pictures with people who are happier than at your usual photoshoot because they're with all their friends - everyone wins!

This group was truly amazing, though - all their families are tight friends, kids included, and everyone's beautiful...all of which makes my job easier and fun!

Happy Holidays to all, thanks for a great shoot!

Sheep & Llamas & Alpacas, OH MY!

Some photos from a recent trip with friends to upstate NY. Wonderfully relaxing & beautiful!

Sweet little lambs!




Off to the Alpaca Farm!
If you stay VERY still, they will come and rub noses with you - SO soft!










Zimmy!

Charlotte's First Birthday Party (& playing in the fall leaves)!

Charlotte has turned ONE!
I traveled up to CT this weekend to enjoy Big Girl Charlotte's first party. We had a wonderfully sweet photoshoot in the leaves out in the yard, luckily the weather was gorgeous! She was delighted to explore the leaves - touching, throwing, yelling at them and even trying to eat them (big surprise there).




Charlotte Loves Leaves


Yelling at the gourd!


Such intense curiosity!


She can stand on her own now - cautious about taking steps...it's only a matter of time!


Cakes by Diane's Sweet Treats - Pretty & Delicious!




There's a color theme going on here...


The color theme even extends to the food!


And the Bday outfit!


Beautiful fall gourds


Frank was his usual self and acted up the day before the party, but was a perfect gentleman when the event was going on.

I think she's trying to blow it out...


First taste.


Sharing with friends!


I think we've had enough - yum!
