Take another look at that face. You’re going to be seeing it on the big screen someday.
I met up with K and her family last weekend to take some quick head shots for an upcoming trip she’s making to Orlando FL to meet with a lot of agents/scouts–you know, those people that help you become a star. Elite Models already have their eye on her. Let’s face it, K is driven, and she’s going places.

I am SO excited to see what’s in store for K! If you aren’t a fan on FB, you’ll have missed the comment that made my whole week. K’s mom wrote this:
“…she said she had so much fun, she wants you to be her forever photographer!!”

Talk about a compliment! You better believe I am in for that. :)

Just misbehaving at her grandparents’ house! We were there this past weekend visiting, and had a blast. Lila LOVED all the attention and being able to do things that don’t normally fly at home (like hang out on the stairs to the 2nd floor…).

We were away last weekend, visiting family in VA.

Oh, yes, you read that right. We flew into the biggest storm the DC/VA/MD area HAS EVER SEEN.

We were staying in Northern VA with my husband’s mother & step-father, and they got 28″ of snow over the weekend. Over TWO FEET. We weren’t sure we would make it out in time for our flight home–I’m still not quite sure how we did it. They live up on a hill on a quiet country road, and it took 2 tractors, a lot of shoveling, and some finger crossing, but we made it to our flight home, with a whole 13 minutes to spare.

This week’s photo immediately jumped out at me when I took it. In this photo, Lila and her grandpa are listening to music on his phone. It was such a sweet thing to watch them together.

I also HAVE to post one additional image. I would have used this for the project, but it was technically taken last week, on Friday, when we first got to VA. This is Lila with her great-grandmother, and they’re playing peekaboo. I can’t get over how much I love this photo.

That’s about all for now! I have a couple of shoots coming up this week, I’m so excited. I took a bit of a break during and after the holidays, and can’t wait to start up again. So you will be seeing some new work shortly!

When I first started doing this project, I wasn’t sure how personal I would end up making it. I didn’t know how much of me I wanted “out there”. But I’m finding as I shoot every week, I NEED this to be personal. I shoot from the heart. I love capturing moments, emotions, those little pieces of time that are gone before you even realize they were there.

This week’s photo is one of my all-time favorites. It is not technically perfect, in any way–in fact, it’s quite imperfect. But the story it tells, is perfect.

This is an image of my daughter, with my parents. She’s turning one next month. She had a rough start in this world, and to see her, playing with her grandparents almost a year later brings me such joy. She’s never been what people call an “easy baby”. But she is coming into her own these days, and couldn’t be more amazing.

(My mom will probably kill me for posting a photo of her in her slippers, haha!)

We are still sick over here, so this will be short and sweet. She’s getting better, slowly but surely.

This photo was taken of Lila doing one of her favorite pastimes–throwing herself on the couch. She loves to stand up and look out the window, and then throw herself on the cushions. Never fear–I’m always sitting on the couch with her, barricading her in. This is a good example of why I love wide angle lenses! And of shooting from the hip. Big fan.

Sisters | Ashland Children’s Photographer

December 3, 2009

This family is one of my favorite families in the world. We’ve been friends since before all the girls were born (theirs and ours), and have had so much fun since we moved out near them about 3 years ago. I love watching the girls grow up together, and hope we’ll be living near each other for a long time!

Last time we were over, mom and I took on all 4 girls (I had L with me), and attempted a mini-session for some Christmas cards. I’m not going to show the photos they picked for their cards (but I may be doing a post with a bunch of my clients’ card choices after the holidays, so stay tuned!), but I just HAD to share some of my faves from the day.

Mom had the CUTEST matching red dresses for the girls, which we did first, before everyone got antsy.

We also went outside to play in all the leaves. The girls loved this!

(I had to sneak in the shot below of my daughter in the wagon with little M, they are TOO funny together.)

And just the sweetest moment (this was totally unprovoked, I’m so happy I saw this!):

D Family, we love you guys! I’m sure we’ll have many more days like these as the girls grow up, and we can’t wait. :)

The Last Days of Summer | Ashland Childrens’ Photographer

September 7, 2009

I met up with these adorable girls last week, to go for a fun nature walk in the woods around here.

200909_Fogel_005WebSharpwm

The little girl on the right is the cousin of the other two, visiting from California. They had so much fun running around the trails, climbing giant rocks, and exploring in these woods.

The mosquitoes were out in full force though, so we didn’t stay too long–gotta love late summer in New England!

I think this next shot is my favorite–I love how real it is. I almost didn’t edit this, and I’m so glad I did! It was really bright out this day, as you can tell from their expressions.

All of the black background shots were taken on their trampoline. We didn’t do jumping shots though, we will definitely have to next time!
