Amazing eyes on these girls

Ooh, I love childcare and the slow January season! I took these photos earlier today, and thanks to my mother-in-law's preschool pickup, was able to focus the rest of the day on them. I love being able to turn things around so quickly at this time of year!

So I know this one is a non-traditional family shot, but I just love it.


And pretty big girl W:


And sweet little girl H:


The girls and their giggles. I love this look W is giving H here:


The girls, all dressed up:


It was great to meet you guys! Thanks for inviting me out :)

Another beautiful belly

I got to meet the lovely V and her husband last week in their fantastic apartment overlooking the Charles River. The huge windows made for really fun photographs:


At the time of these photos, V was due in three weeks - I love this of Dad feeling the baby:


This is one of my absolute faves. I love that you get a sense of place with the city behind them, and at first you almost don't notice V's sweet belly popping out in the middle.


I can't wait to meet your sweet girl when she arrives. Thanks so much for having me!

Number three, on the way

I love it when families I've known for a while let me come back and experience a pregnancy through pictures. I started taking pictures of big five year old A when she was just a year old, and got to do teenie baby pictures of two 1/2 year old R when she was just a little one... and now I got to get excited with the family as they await #3:


I love this of the three cuties:


And the two big girls:


The whole crew. Wonderful to see you guys again - best of luck with the new arrival, I can't wait to meet him/her! :)

2009, here I come!

So for my first shoot of 2009, I got to go see these wonderful cuties, J and M. Here's my favorite pensive one of big boy J:


I love how they give each other the giggles:


And big girl M has grown so much since last year:


And of course we had to have some fun jumping around in the living room:


Before we went outside to play in the snow:
