I'm an Aunt!

Okay, so I'm two months late with this post (what else is new?), but here it is! My brother and his wife welcomed a beautiful 5-lb, 8-oz baby girl into their family on November 19, 2009. Jude was three weeks early, but conveniently arrived on a Thursday night, so all of our side of (immediate) family was able to go up to meet little Miss Jude that weekend in the hospital. We didn't have time for a real newborn session, but I snapped a few shots of Jude at just two and a half days old! I saw my sweet niece on Saturday - she is quickly growing and is an incredibly happy baby who loves being held...I miss her already! To see more images from our mini-session, click here to becoming a fan of my business on Facebook - I'll be posting an album there shortly.

Sleeping Beauty

To all those who check back on my blog for updates: Thank you! I am so sorry for being so inconsistent with my photo updates on here! To further highlight how behind I am on my posts, I am attaching below some images from my recent *3-month* photo shoot with gorgeous Avni, whose first entire year I have the pleasure of photographing!! I will have to upload images from her newborn shoot on here soon as well, but I wanted to include some of my favorites from our session last month. This little beauty was actually a little OVER three months old at the time we got around to the session. The first scheduled date did not end up working out, then on the second scheduled date, we got some unexpected snow/sleet, so I played it safe and re-scheduled for another time. The third time was a charm and we fit Avni in for my last session of 2009 and before her grandparents headed back to India on New Year's Day.

I *so* enjoyed this session. In the first couple of images, Avni is playing with her favorite toy. In the next image, Avni's mom and grandmother are crowning her with traditional Indian apparel, and in the final image, we get to see the little cutie wiped out after all the excitement of the photo shoot! Please become a fan of my business on Facebook to see a complete album of my favorite images from Avni's 3-month photo session and to see my most recent work! Thanks for visiting my blog. :)
