Introducing Princess Pazlie

This little one is the baby sister to a whole bunch of brothers, who just adore her by the way, as do her mom and dad. I love the way they spell Pazlie, (pronounced Paisley).

She was stubborn about falling asleep, She nursed so much we were afraid she might explode and yet she still did not want to go to sleep, and she was a strong little thing and kept trying to rollover if we put her on her belly, the little stinker. So we got a bunch of her awake..






Here is where she is letting me know she has had enough of the picture taking.





Of course that didn't stop me from getting a few more.




I can't wait till we get to do family pictures with all her big brothers.

Little miss J has her 1st Holy Communion

I confess I am a bit behind on blogging but will be gettign caught up here in the next week or so.

Last May I got to take pictures of Miss J's older sister on her special day so I was thrilled I got to be there for hers. She looked like a princess.










These 2 girls are just beautiful and I love there big pretty eyes.



Had to snap a few of her big sister too while we waited.




Of course Bridget needed to bew part of the action.

Why do Professional Photographers cost so much?

I hear that question or some variation of it very often. I was going to type up a really good break down of costs to share with people then I found through the power of google some already pretty great explanations so I thought I would share those links with you all instead. While not exactly the same break downs as I have it is pretty darn close. Reading that reminded me just how expensive it is, and looking at the pile of receipts I have come tax time I should not be surprised...

2. Why does Custom Photography cost more?

Love these cuties

It was a great weekend from photography aspects, we won't talk about the rest...

Anyway I got the chance to pick up my friend Chels and her little girls and head to the local college campus to take some pictures. The weather was great and the girls were in a good mood. Of course they were full of the wiggles and staying still for pictures was not on the top of the list of things they wanted to do but I think we managed to capture a few shots that showcase their adorable personalities.

These little munchkins always make me smile.











I love the way she called her sisters yellow umbrella a Lellow Brulella (or something like that.)

Anticipation

All babies are a blessing from God. Sometimes it just feels like an even bigger blessing. My sweet freinds Dave and Emily have been waiting for several years now to have their lives blessed with a child so that they can grow their family. I have gotten to know them over the last four years while Dave attended Dental school. Well on May 14th Dave will gradutae and it just so happens that it is also the due date of their first child. Now how special is that?

Well we were lucky enough to get some true spring like weather yesterday and I picked up Emily and we headed over to Valley Forge park and captured these images of her. Isn't she just a beautiful Momma to be? I should also mention she is just as beautiful if not more so on the inside. Her and her dear hubby are just genuinely sweet people!!













And in a few weeks I will be photographing their sweet little boy they have waited so long to meet. I can't wait!!

She'll call me Aunt Z...

You might remember this maternity session... Well the sweet little princess arrived and I got to visit for a couple days and take tons of pictures. She is such a little doll.

Little Miss E had her opinions on being undressed so we didn't get any nakey baby pics.

She might not have been the easiest baby to photograph (She gets that from her dad) but I am pretty smitten with her anyway, and can't wait till the next time I get to photograph her.

Little Mr. J

This handsome little prince is a month old, however he made an appearance a few weeks before his due date. He was an absolute joy to photograph. He was nice and sleepy since he decided to keep mom and dad up the whole night before. Don't you just love that luscious full head of hair he was born with? (I hear his older brother and sister were equally as blessed...)











He only started to wake up towards the end when we tried to get a few naked baby shots.





Thanks Sarah for letting me come capture this time in your little man's life.
