Happy Birthday Naomi and Olivia!

Happy first birthday to Naomi and Olivia! I was excited to have the chance to celebrate with them last Saturday afternoon as their family and friends gathered together to laugh, eat and commemorate a terrific first year. Grace and Daniel really outdid themselves, creating a beautiful doljabi for the girls complete with gorgeous traditional outfits and an amazing food spread. The highlight of the party was the ritual when the babies “foretold their futures” by choosing from symbolic items such as a gavel, representing a possible law career, or a pencil, representing an academic path.  Everyone got a huge kick out of the fact that we had a future doctor and golf champion in our midst!  Congratulations, Grace and Daniel! I am sure the first year went by in a blink…keep enjoying every minute with your beautiful little girls.

 

 

Happy Birthday Dylan and Sophie!

Kim and Alina threw a joint birthday party for their 2-year-old, best buddy daughters, Dylan and Sophie, last Sunday. A few days before the big bash, they found themselves in desperate need of a photographer for the event. To say that it’s rare for me to be able to take on a last minute session is an understatement. My shoot schedule normally books months in advance and, now, I have an 8 month old who dominates the rest of my time. But I really felt for Kim and Alina, wanting to capture this special moment for their families, and I am SO GLAD the stars aligned and I was able to rejigger my schedule to shoot the party for them. Dylan and Sophie are two very sweet, adorable little girls. It’s safe to say they had a great time dancing and playing with their friends and families at the beautiful new SOD Room. While Dylan’s best buddy, “Donnie the Duck,” was her ever-constant partner, that didn’t stop her from “toasting” her fellow birthday girl, Sophie, with a cupcake. Kim and Alina…I’m so glad we found each other! Thanks for having me be a part of the fun.

 

 

Grayson

Last month I photographed twins Avery and Morgan. This past Sunday, I had the pleasure of meeting their cousin, Grayson! What a darling. Grayson knew where the camera was the whole time and gave me some awesome smiles. He also rocked a few great hats and gladly posed with mom and dad. This whole family is such a blast. It would be so much fun to get everyone together for pictures some day! It was so nice meeting you, Erin and Ross! Thanks for a great time.

Keegan

Keegan rocked his photo shoot last Saturday morning! What a little cutie. I really enjoyed meeting you, Catherine and Sean! Thanks for having me over to hang out with my new buddy.
