• MacKinlay

  • Last week, I got to meet this wonderful family. Alex came in with 6 days old MacKinlay, who was a very hungry little angel. Alex was very inspiring to me, so in tune with nature. She's an emergency room PA, and wanted to experience a natural birth, while still benefiting from modern hospital technology. And she did just that, in the delivery room, she delivered her baby herself, under the watchful eye of her OBGYN, not your everyday occurrence... Alex and Randy, it was a pleasure to meet you [...]
  • Ansley

  • With only one more year of high school to attend, Ansley is ready for the great college adventure (seriously after visiting a few campus, I want to go to college in the US!). Whereas most of her friends are still wondering what they'll want to master in, she sees drawings, intersecting lines, and numbers with architecture. We had a fast pace afternoon, with my very ambitious numerous locations, spread out around town. I would also like to brag about Ansley's mother, Yvette. Yvette is celebr [...]
  • The Baehrs

  • Before I move on to a new session, I had to post of few of this wonderful family together. Now, it's obvious to all, the good looks run in the gene pool.
  • Happy Mother's Day

  • Happy mother's day to all, even if I'm a little late. Introducing today a very well "rounded" family. By rounded, I mean a lovely family, with a rich life. With my french upbringing, I've always been impressed with the way Americans raise their children. We, in France, have our children spend their childhood in school, classes last all day, and there isn't much time left for extra scholar activities. In the US, early school release leaves afternoons free to practice sports, music... America [...]
  • Henry

  • An other sweet little baby boy to share this week. I was quite excited to try out a few props, a new wrap, new hat with matching diaper cover, the bucket, the stool, and the chinese basket. Henry did a great job modeling for us:)
  • Emerson

  • He's here! I love photographing the belly, and then meeting the baby. Right at 2 weeks old, Emerson was a champion little model. As you all must have realized by now, newborn sessions are some of my very favorite, for the very simple reason, I get to hold a baby. They are so small, yet so perfect, so easy to please, content with affection. Somehow, they have the power to "stop the world", wash away the worries and stress, with their simple demand of love and gentleness. Bridget and Colby, [...]
  • Estelle

  • Little Miss Estelle is 2 years old! I started photographing her in her mommy's belly. I can't believe she's so grown up. A very busy little girl, so interested in life, there is no time to sit down, except maybe for a quick tea party. It was a pleasure to watch her in action, and a bit of a challenge to keep up with her. These images celebrate her gleeful personality, and her inquisitive mind. I hope to continue watching her grow into a beautiful girl. [...]
  • Noël en Provence, deuxième partie

  • The last part of our December trip to France. I'm probably reiterating, but having spend Christmas in France was so special to me, even more so since it was in Aix-en-Provence. It was my first Christmas back home since my engagement (Noël 1994!!!!) True to our wish to tour the surroundings, we visited Marseilles, the oldest city of France, founded in 600BC by Greeks. It is famous for it's "vieux port" (old port), still France's largest commercial port. The entrance of the port is flanked by [...]
  • Noël 2009 en Provence

  • Today, I'm able to share a few pictures from our past December trip to France. I had been hoping for a white Christmas, snow flakes even greeted us on our arrival. However, the thin white blanket melted within a day, and rain took over. Our first day, eager and ambitious to discover all of the South of France, Henry planed a spiritual excursion for us. Legend has it that Mary Magdalen (along with Lazarus and Martha) fled to the South of France (via Egypt) bearing "the earthen vessel that he [...]
  • Liz

  • Spring is here! Unlike everyone else I wasn't ready for "good weather". Our cool temperatures suited me just fine, it isn't that I dislike Spring, I actually LOVE it, it's just that I'm only too aware of it's shortness. It seems to be a quick introduction to a long hot summer... I'm so inspired by all the colors, the lovely blooms on pear trees, the few cherry blossoms... Driving around town, I see opportunities everywhere for nice pictures, I wish I had a group of teens, kids readily avail [...]
  • Heidi

  • She bears the name of one of my all time favorite novel character. She is sweet, sweet , sweet, full of delicious dimples, with perfect baby skin, beautiful red hair, gorgeous blue eyes... so adorable. I love all the uncensored expressions infants have, the emotions are so genuine, there is no self consciousness in the way. I really don't like waiting for the angry/crying face, but it's still one (I believe) that needs to be recorded. She's ready to go places, She's off... to t [...]
