WELCOME!

Welcome to my Blog! I will be using this to post sneak peeks from portrait sessions, announcement specials, and to help you get to know me and my photographic style.

In a few words, I am an on-location, natural light, lifestyle photographer. I strive to capture the organic moments of every stage of life. The real moments. The natural interactions. The ones that will evoke emotion, every time you reflect on them.

I am a wife, a mother, a daughter, a sister, a friend. I am a photograher and a speech-language pathologist. I am a perfectionist yet still a big kid at heart.

I hope you enjoy your visit enough to add me to your regular blog reads. I also hope that from time to time, you give me some feedback by leaving me a comment.

Mine on Monday - Sarasota Baby Photographer

"Mine on Monday" posts have taken a back-burner to the chaos over the past couple months, but I'm going to try to get back into them. I have about 12 GB of pictures of the kids; however, my hard drive is full so they are sitting in waiting until I clear some other stuff off.

Today's update will be about Caroline. She is already 8 months old. She is scooting around quite a bit (not crawling, but I'd say she'd mobile). She mostly goes backwards in an army crawl, but she also does a push-up inch worm to get places too. She is eating some finger foods and more baby food meals. She doesn't have any teeth yet despite the constant drool she's got going on. She is a babbling fool, mostly "Dadada", "Nananana", and "Lalalala", but there's an occasional "babbaba" and "mamama". Her latest party tricks are making Indian war chant sounds by banging her hand on her mouth or preferably mine. She gives me "kisses" (chomps down on my face while pulling the sides of my hair to her face). Other party tricks include cocking her head to the side when she hears "awwww". She is finally sleeping in her crib in her room at night. She started to flip over or pull up and tip forward in her sleep sling, so I think that may be retired. She's gone as long as 7 hours at a stretch one time last week, which is AMAZING! Unfortunately, I can't say that happened last night. She was up five different times, I'm hoping the thunderstorm was the problem and not a true set-back.
