Twins!

Where do kids get their energy from? I'm always amazed and these 3 year old twins were no exception. Running races with their parents, blowing bubbles, rolling down hills. I even was treated to some "transformer" moves by big boy J.

J and L sitting so nicely but ready to leap up any second!

I think this is one of my very favorites from the shoot. Each one having a special moment with mom and dad.

L sitting tall on Dad's shoulders.

Had to show this in color for the fabulous pop of yellow! I love the rosy cheeks and the pure joy here.

Squishing Dad's face till it looks juuuuust right.

Getting a squeeze from mom.

It was so great to meet your beautiful family! Can't wait to show you the rest!

Birthday Boy

1 year old birthday boy M has got to be the most snuggly little boy I've ever met. He was so sweet with both his parents just wanting to be held and cuddled. Here he is snuggling with his mama.

and a little quality time with Dad.

Sigh...

It almost looks like he's touching the bubble here. Totally fascinated.

Concentrating on catching the bubbles.

a happy moment with mom

It was so great to meet you!

For all you animal lovers

I did a shoot at the Veterinary Specialty and Emergency Center in PA a few weeks ago and while I'm not going to show you any surgery or nasty wound pics (and there are some!), here are a few of the cute canine and feline VSEC residents on the road to recovery.

Springtime Fun with 3

I met these cuties last week and what started out to be a wet rainy day, turned into a beautiful sunny Spring day. We had some fun inside and then played chase, blew bubbles and just enjoyed the beautiful backyard they had. Check out some of my favorites from the shoot:

Arghhh matey! J makes the cutest pirate in town!

Big brother J running from me. I never did catch him.

Little brother J... I could just eat him up with those beautiful brown eyes!

He came right up close to the camera. I think he was trying to see inside the lense.

Baby sister K...such a cute smile!

Showing off her perfect banana boat. This must be a yoga move I'm sure...what form! :)

And fur baby Huck waiting for the sun to come out.

Big brotherly hug turned into more of a headlock but definitely an affectionate one.

Great to meet you all! Thanks for having me!

The perfect afternoon

Is it bad to post pictures of my own kids on my professional blog? Eh oh well. We had such a great afternoon I just had to share. A beautiful day, a beautiful park, my 3 favorite kids, flying kites, eating pizza...an all around relaxing afternoon laughing and having fun.

Connor couldn't fly the kite so I took off the string and he just ran around with it "flying" it.

Aubrey definitely got the hang of it, running all over the field with Connor running after her.

Taking a break with his favorite food...strawberries.

And I couldn't forget my little spectator who was fascinated by the kite. He missed his afternoon nap and still was happy as can be, although needed his binky a bit to keep him going.
