{On the Winter Side … Wordless Wednesday | Isn’t she, pretty in … blue}

This is the part where I tell you I’ve studied photography in the classroom & out in the real world. Where I talk about working as a second shooter & interning at the in-house photo studio of a downtown Chicago advertising agency. This is where you’d learn that I was published in a national magazine & got to show off a cute little family of five from North Pole, Alaska. This is where you could read all of that & so much more.
But what really defines me is the every day. Raising four kids (under five, almost six), including a set of twins, just for good measure. This is where I share my work, my thoughts, my inspiration, my clients & their kids. This is where I hope you get a glimpse into my world, cause I’m ready to rock yours.

Ollie in Review | Fairbanks Alaska PhotographerMarch 29th, 2010Just wanted to pop in & share a few of my favorites from Ollie’s one year session. We talked about capturing his “one-ness” (his birthday was on the actual day of our session ~ how fun is that!), but more importantly his personality & charm and, as mom put it, his “rough-and-tumble sensibility” (see image [...] |
Just wanted to pop in & share a few of my favorites from Ollie’s one year session. We talked about capturing his “one-ness” (his birthday was on the actual day of our session ~ how fun is that!), but more importantly his personality & charm and, as mom put it, his “rough-and-tumble sensibility” (see image below with dirt all over face & make note of the fact that as he was rolling down the dirt pile, he was actually trying to eat it –
I love it! what a cutie!). And with how into their iPhones mom & dad are … we can’t miss out on that now, can we
Enjoy a quick ‘session in review’! Happy Monday!



That little hand-hold right there … I live for moments like those. Those days when they grab just one finger & hold on tight … pass all too quickly. Enjoy every moment!
MANY, many thanks to Linda with Ann’s Greenhouses who made this session possible! I am so thankful at her openness & willingness in accommodating our shoot and holding our session there. We couldn’t have asked for anything better! I’m excited to work with you again, Linda! And please, if you are looking to grow some flowers or a beautiful garden this summer, stop by and visit during their 44th Open House, Saturday May 8th! A great local business to support.
Fresh Friday Five | Fairbanks Portrait PhotographerMarch 26th, 2010The end of the week already?! Really not sure how it happens anymore. (And next week is April?!? Don’t even bring it up. Cannot.

The end of the week already?! Really not sure how it happens anymore. (And next week is April?!? Don’t even bring it up. Cannot. Believe.)
1. Been saving this all week – a delightful look into some wall galleries.
A wall of your own: ideas to live with.
2. Speaking of wall galleries! If you are a former client or blog reader with walls you’d like to share, send ‘em my way!
I’d love to collect a few to showcase on the blog. Sometimes all we need are a few ideas and a little inspiration and voila! a wall gallery is born.
3. Scheduling-wise it’s looking like I may have one last date available in May, then we’re moving on to June! If you’re interested in a June or July date, please don’t hesitate to touch base & we’ll get you set!

4. This adorable friend (we could probably nick-name her Pink
) gave me some quick last minute ideas on ‘making your own bird feeder’ … if it goes well, maybe I can share!
We’ll see. Gonna try to tackle this one for the birds
. (Just got some tips from this artistic friend as well. Okay! Determination has kicked in
)
5. 10 Tips to Increase Peace, Quiet & Free Time in your Home. Now who couldn’t use that! I already try to do the “one load a day”, which I can tell you works pretty good. Although man, it feels like a laundry list that never ends!
And if we could all spare a moment to send good testing vibes to the mama of this cutie … she has two exams today alone!
I just love this shot of the three of them (and this is grandma’s first grand-baby!); it makes my heart smile.
Happy Friday!
