Mr. Boots

That title is for you Nate! That is just one of the nicknames Elliott has been given in his first 9 months or so. We talked about how so many nicknames have no meaning but just come from love - and wanting to pile that love on them - and one name just will not do - they are far too cute and special.
Megan's love of all things etsy (i.e. - handmade, artistic, unique) was apparent throughout their home. This includes her own creations including a gorgeous origami mobile that I feel she could sell tons of.

Hmmmm.......why didn't I get an image of that?

I love this series of Megan and Elliott.

Talloulah has a face only a mother could love. Not true - she is bee-u-tee-ful.

This arrangement on the kitchen counter was so weepy and interesting. It also just happened to be from Nate and Megan's wedding. Isn't that fun that we could use it again this way? Just so long as you don't poke the baby's eye out on it. (That's for you Megan!)

Elliott really milked his naked time and basked in the undivided attention of three adults.

Be-Bo

Be -bo...........that's what she calls her belly button. I think Riley really had fun during our shoot. There were tons of snow and ice outside but we were warm and cozy inside playing and jumping on the big bed - running through the hallway - climbing the stairs - and playing with tofu. Ok, so Mom and Dad are the only ones who will understand the tofu.


How beautiful is she?!!?!

I love her little heart pocket.

Mag is family and when I stopped by her house on my way home from another session and saw her in her PJ's and little acorn hat, I had to spend some time. She's a princess in PJ's. I always love what children have to talk about; what they do each day, their favorite toys, about their mom and dad. I think they enjoy a new ear to fill up with what's in their imagination. So I listen and talk and shoot and somehow we end up with little bits and pieces of their spirit on film (so to speak).
Thanks for letting me hang with Mag - we really do love her and hope you love these.
