A day in your life

I look at my son everyday and think someday I'll miss this. In thirty years, when he's grown up with a family of his own, I'll miss the day to day things that make our life what it is.  I'll miss making his breakfast, reading him a bedtime story, dancing in the living room.  I'll miss how his head smells after a bath, the way he looks at me when he's doing something naughty, his happy babble.  I will miss it.

I know in thirty years, I'll be pouring over every photograph I've ever taken, a bit misty eyed, fondly remembering when.  Every photograph will take me back to a memory, and I'll relive these years again.

I want to help you remember when.  I want to create a session that documents who you are as a family right here and now.  I want to capture the silliness, the crankiness, the unconditional love that makes your family who it is.  

I want to chronicle a day in your life.

Unreal

My belly is ginormous.  Sorry, I don’t have photos of it- I’ve been too lazy to take one.  You’ll just have to take my word for it. The size of my ginormous belly is an indication as to how soon our family will go from three plus dog to four plus dog.  And this, my...

Urban Holiday

So, we’re back home.  Home.  HOME.  It’s so nice. Yes, the Mediterranean was lovely.  Yes, we enjoyed the sunshine.  Yes, the Roman and Medieval ruins were fascinating. But.  But. There’s no place like home.  Especially when you’ve got a 20 month old. The major problem, I found, was the Benjy seemed to spend a whole lot of time...

On holiday

Guess where I am!!  Guess!!  Go on, guess! Barcelona!  Huzzah! My parents, Olli, Benjy, and I have spent the past week getting lost time and again- all the while discovering beautiful new streets, shops, cafes, and ice cream shops. Case in point, we took a wrong turn on a walking tour of Roman Barcelona and...

Bubbles!

So, it’s pretty much guaranteed that bubbles make ADORABLE photos.  Especially when your subject is a 19 month old little boy who knows something is SUPPOSED to happen when you dip the stick in the bottle, but doesn’t totally get the mechanics of it. I could have photographed this for hours. Oh, and you can...

You should see the other guy…

So, Benjy had a rough 24 hours last week.  He transformed from a little boy into a total kamikaze, falling off the couch three times and falling off the outside step once. Here are his battle wounds.

Why I love Olli…

Okay, so now it’s time for the last installment of marriage week.  The super sappy “Man oh man, am I glad I married this guy” post.  Here are a just two reasons- 1.  This house: This is a giant house in Masala, Kirkkonummi.  It was built in the 1930′s and now is totally and completely...
