philadelphia. fun.

I was so excited to go to Philadelphia.  I was going to get to see Sajini and Joshua again and I couldn't wait for how amazing their wedding day was going to be.  Then I found out that I was going to get to hang out with one of Sajini's good friends the day before the wedding.  As you can see from this shoot we had a great time!

I don't know if there's anyone in the world that can resist sweet Jaydon's big chocolate brown eyes.  He was so good natured about us playing with him, taking walks, and going to lunch.  He even got a little nap in...he's irresistible even when he's sleeping.

I'm so grateful for the time I got to spend with Rinu and Praveen.  They are so giving and kind.  When Rinu realized that I hadn't worn shoes for walking a few miles (because we all wanted to walk around Philly) she let me borrow her awesome tennis shoes.  (my next move it monday purchase will be a pair of Asics!)  Rinu and Praveen made me fall even more in love with Philadelphia (they convinced me that I have to bring my kids there this summer...it's beautiful and there is so much history and fun things to do!) and more in love with Sajini and Joshua. 

Thank you so much Rinu and Praveen!  It was wonderful spending time with you and getting to see what great parents you are, how much you love each other and Jaydon, and getting to see Philly.  Thank you!

love. LIFE.

Jacob.

I can't believe that the time goes by so quickly!  Little Jacob was born near last fall and I had the opportunity to meet him and his sweet parents.  It's amazing how a baby changes from a sweet, wide eyed baby (baby Jacob) completely dependent on his parents to a little toddler crawling, getting into things, exploring, and loving his little world. 

It was so fun to see him go from mom to dad and back again, he squealed during his bath and loved his warm towel and watching himself in the mirror, banging on the front door, playing with the dogs, looking at flowers, and every other new thing he could experience.  I love  how new and wonderful the world is to him.  One of the gifts of children is getting to see how amazing life and the world is...really is.

amazing. LIFE.

real. LIFE.

books.  sunglasses.

The Petersen family is such great fun and so much laughing.  They are so relaxed with each other and don't mind working it for the camera.  I'm so glad that I got to hang out with them!  (You'll recognize someone in these pictures...let's see if you can guess who they are...)

We started off at home with the Petersens.  As I came in the house I noticed the purple front door and thought it would be a great place for a picture.  Once I heard them talking about it being a place they saw the kids off to the bus and so many other sweet, but long gone memories that were had by that door....I KNEW we had to take a picture there.  After we chatted a little about what they like to do as a family and found out that most of them like to read and go shopping at Trolley Square we headed to the library and then trolley square. 

When we got into cars to go to the library I saw everyone putting on some pretty stylin' sunglasses all at once.  Hence, the great shot of them all workin' America's Next Top Model style.  We had so much fun together and I'm so grateful for the opportunity to get to know them all better.

fun. LIFE.

married. with twins.

I photographed Emily and Jed's wedding a few years ago and was so excited to hear that they are having twins!  I did a short session with them...for Valentine's Day.  We ended up chatting quite a bit about twins, of course.  They are going to be really wonderful parents!

changed. LIFE.
