i've had a number of maternity and newborn sessions that i haven't blogged yet. this little family was a recent session i did. i'll post a few more in the coming days. i loved everything about this family. such great style all the way around! so glad they called me to document the arrival of their new baby boy!

well, hello dear neglected blog. it's pretty common this time of year i am MIA around here. typically, after december i have to catch up on edits, after holiday orders and re-organize myself at home and work. i re-focus on my family who i hardly see in the fall and get ready for the year to come. without this time, i would spin completely out control and that would be a bad thing. we have a lot of exciting things happening around here and i'll be posting that in the near future. for now i want to post this amazing engagement session i did in arizona around the end of december. i always stress how important these get-to-know-you sessions are and this one was no exception. i was lucky enough to spend extra time with angie and zach because i stayed over at their house before heading to northern california for a wedding the next day. i did not know these two well before my visit but after i left i really felt like we'd become great friends. there was lots of sunshine (miss that right now), lots of great food, funny stories ... i can go on and on about all the fun we had during my time there but let's just say i cannot wait for their wedding!

 thank you to all our 2011 clients. we wish everyone a healthy, happy and prosperous new year!
