A little taste of the attitude she’s developing. This is her yelling at me “noooo!!!!” when I told her to stop standing on the coffee table.
Oh, boy.

I totally love this.

Beach Baby.
She wasn’t nearly as afraid of the water as I thought she’d be!

Halfway! I know this is late – we were away last week, and I didn’t have a chance to post anything before we left. So this isn’t last week’s image, it’s for the week before.
She’s the cutest assistant I’ve ever had, that’s for sure!

SUCH a clown.

I definitely can’t top last week’s shot…not just yet anyway.
So I’m going for emotion this week. And embracing that grain.
Lila’s yelling at me here, to put her current favorite song/video back on.

I loved this perspective. She’s standing in the couch in the living room, watching some gigantic pine trees be cut down next door. (I don’t normally let her hang out inside by herself, I was only out there for like 5 minutes, and she stood in the window the whole time.)
I did get totally covered in sawdust, which was awesome. Tons of microscopic splinters when I brushed it all off.

Happy Friday!
My future sister (in-law, but she is my new sister to me). Marrying my little brother, next month, and I can’t wait! These were all taken in Newport a few weeks ago at her bachelorette–what, did you really think I’d waste the opportunity to get some shots of the day?
The weather was so eerie all morning and afternoon, due to heavy rain and fog. Did that deter us from heading to a local winery? No way!


We got the girls together for some silliness, which was so fun! It’s making me think about offering Friends sessions. I don’t see my closest friends nearly enough, and would love some great photos with them.
We started off all well-behaved…

Which quickly morphed into unprompted antics that resulted in side-splitting laughter.

And yes, they jumped. At a winery. In the rain. Why not?

We went from chilly and foggy to this, our view from dinner:

Seriously, the perfect afternoon/evening. During which, we ran out on a pier to take full advantage.

I was hanging off the edge of the pier here, which is why they were all taken from the same angle. The things I do for a shot!
She’s going to make one gorgeous bride, that’s for sure. (And she’s totally cringing as she reads this! Sorry, L, get ready! T-minus 30 days, woo!!)

Her first time in a pool.
From last weekend, but it was on Sunday, so it counts for this week! She was a little scared, but was getting used to it by the end of the weekend. I’m sure she’ll be a little waterbug before we know it.

Being the cheeseball that she is.
I can’t believe how lucky we are to have her.
