Wishing you a wonderful Christmas and happy holiday together with family and friends!

… just like your big brother.

I was looking forward to meeting you two! So proud of your mommy and daddy and the big commitment and sacrifices they make for our country!

Knit toques by Kimberly Francis – The AMAZING! I have adored her work for many a years!

So the other day my auntie Alanna came over… she brought her camera because she was going to take pictures of moms belly. Mommy has a baby in there.

We decided to make cookies first… man I love cookies. We had so much fun. I added flour and vanilla and oats. I told mom where to place the cookie dough… and I tasted it… I had to try some… and some more … it was SO good.

While the cookies were in the oven, we decide to read a book… I love reading books.

I didn’t know what to do after the book, but auntie Alanna still followed me around… she thinks I am a sweetheart.

Then Dad and I played … I sure love my dad. He works hard for us.

When the cookies were done we sat down and had a snack together.

Then Daddy went to work… and it was time for mommies maternity session….

… we decided to play instead. But mommy thought that was OK… because soon I am going to have a baby brother or sister and mommy wants us to remember this special time in my life… when it was just us. Mommy loves me so much …. I love mommy so much too.

Happy second birthday Ethan! I still haven’t posted from your first party… so here is a few special memories from last year. You sure have grown.

This past weekend I had the privilege of second shooting (assisting) an artist who’s work I admire – Rick Collins. The ceremony took place at the Harrison Hot Spring Hotel it was a gorgeous wedding. My first time second shooting for a wedding… I have to say I REALLY like it! Less pressure and all the FUN!

What can I say… you guys are wonderful! I feel so honored to have captured some of your first family pictures for your newly expanded family. So so so happy for you all!

Meeting this little one for the first time was such an honor.

Met with this beautiful family – who I have known and adored for a few years now – at a location I have loved and thought of photographing at for a long time. What gorgeous light we had that evening! The mosquito’s gave us a bit of trouble… but nothing we couldn’t handle. Can’t wait to to see all the images finished!
