If you remember, I did these photos for twins G & J back in October. Their mom wanted another session, but this time outdoors and with their grandma. We chose the streets of Old Folsom and the girls enjoyed a stop at Snooks Candies as a reward for being so well behaved and patient during the shoot. Enjoy!
Meh, okay, it's January 10th and to most of us the holidays are a distant memory...and yet, here I am, just now blogging about it!
This Christmas Reid was old enough to at least kind of understand what was going on. This year Santa came for the first time, Reid was able to rip into his own presents, and got excited over all of his new toys. I can honestly say that my heart about burst with happiness watching my son enjoy the holiday season.
On December 28th we left for Idaho to visit Will's parents and siblings. REID'S FIRST PLANE RIDE! He did wonderfully throughout the entire trip and even slept through the awful turbulence on the flight home. He also got to see snow for the first time and really couldn't have cared less. Our final "firsts" of the trip consisted of Reid's first haircut and my first time skiing...ever! We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the beauty of Northern Idaho.
Here are photos from the past few weeks - enjoy!
There are two photos from my wedding day that are my hands-down, no if-ands-or-buts-about-it, to-die-for favorite. I'm not sure if our photographer purposefully placed the focus on the champagne glasses or if it just fell like that. She was probably a bit worried about the harsh back-lighting of the window behind us, and she was shooting on film. She caught a moment between a new husband and wife that summarizes in two frames what we were feeling for a whole day. I look a tad dorky, we look a bit awkward, but we look in love. She didn't pose us and we had no idea she was taking the photo.
Realizing exactly why I love these photos has single handedly crafted me into the wedding photographer that I am today.
Thank you to Allison Stahl for capturing this moment for us back on September 24th, 2005.
