These sweet, sleepy little guys were a joy to photograph – they were my first set of newborn twins! I’m editing their session today and tomorrow and will do a full peek when it’s done, but wanted to share this one, ’cause it’s just ridiculously sweet. :-)

Some days, my job gives me goosebumps…

April 21, 2010 | Filed Under sneak peeks | 1 Comment 

…today is one of those days. This lovely family got their gallery password today (Melanie, you’re next, then Sarah, then Grace! ;-), but I had to share some of my OMG shots, ’cause, well, they’re awesome. It’s 11pm, so I’m limiting myself to minimal commentary, ’cause sometimes I get kinda punchy after hours (OMG was almost OMJ, for “Oh. My. Joss.” but was vetoed by the editorial board…it snuck back in there, though…see what I mean about the punchy? ;-).

Mama and papa with the first baby:

…and the amazing SECOND baby:

…who is marvelously teething:

…and curious:

….and did I mention their house has AMAZING light?!?!

I love this next one because it looks like a water housing shot (above and below the wave), only with a book. I know, I’m a dork.

Sometimes, joy doesn’t need faces:

…and sometimes it does ;-)

I’ll say it again: I LOVE BABYWEARING!

If this were my family, I would totally blow this up as a canvas and stick it on the wall. Like, BIG.

…just about the only time I will plotz about a canary yellow corvette is when I can plop a baby on top:

…and sometimes all you need is a wall of flowers:

…and mama love (thank you to the neighbors who didn’t care that we were tromping in their front yard to get these shots ;-):

and I love this because I can totally see that mama was laughing, just from her posture. and also, someday, he is going to say…”wait, that’s our garage door. I was THAT tiny?”

…and then we met up in the evening for some park time (did I mention their gallery ended up being huge?!):

Thank you, universe (and blessed clients) for bringing me this joy!

Ridiculously Amazing Part II: The Afternoon

April 7, 2010 | Filed Under sneak peeks | Leave a Comment 

Hello dear readers,

It’s been a crazy few weeks in my universe, but I am finally catching up and am excited to share the rest of the peek images from this sweet family’s session! We met up in the afternoon for a visit to the library, park and neighborhood fruit stand, and even if there were a few broken eggs (literally ;-) I feel safe saying the afternoon was an amazing one, but I invite you to judge for yourself (I don’t usually peek this many images, but this session was so jam packed, I couldn’t narrow down!)! Without further ado, I give you…

THE LIBRARY :-)

THE HISTORICAL MUSEUM :-)

THE PARK :-)

aaaand…. THE FRUIT STAND! :-)

this little monchichi was totally stoked to nosh apple samples after he broke a carton of eggs (unfortunately, my auntie reflexes overwhelmed my photographer reflexes, and I rushed to help pick it up rather than documenting it…next time, I’ll be prepared!! ;-)

Can I just say again how much I FLIPPING LOVE mama love? I love it. A LOT!

and then, plumb tuckered out, we said our goodbyes and headed home. :-)

Thank you, again, for bringing such awesomeness into my life!

xoxo,
Lilia
