Joe and I have been reminded of all the blessings in our lives and for me, one of those things is my job. I meet the most incredible people all over the country and spend my days celebrating the joy and wonder of childhood. I can’t think of anything I’d rather do.

My very first day of shooting happened to be three 7 month old boys in a row, not sure how I planned it that way but it was the perfect re-introduction. I absolutely love the age before a little one goes mobile either expert crawling or full-fledge walking. It varies for every kid but the sweet spots seems to be between 6-9mos. I encourage everyone with little ones to photograph around that time – even though there isn’t an obvious milestone. Here’s one little guy from my first day back. I’ll be sharing the rest very soon.

Thanks for all the thoughtful emails and especially a big thank you to my clients for being so understanding with my schedule. I hope to see you soon.

TECHNICAL NOTE: I was shooting in the back of the house with very little natural light. I had set up a strobe so I could get both boys sitting up on the bed (yes this little guy is a twin – can’t wait to share images of the two of them) but took a few w/o the strobe to take advantage of the lovely, low light. ISO 250, f3.5 at 1/50.
