Bj and I have a standing deal: we get one glorious morning each weekend day to sleep in. It’s beautiful and I love it oh so much. Of course I tend to go a bit crazy the night before I know I get to sleep in and this last weekend was no exception. In fact, …

Newborn – baby M
This sweet little baby and his family were so fun to photograph. It was my first time using the poof, and a few other tools so Kristen was kind enough to come as my assistant. Mom found me via Google and since baby was already a week old when she called we didn’t have a …
This Moment
Joining in on Amanda’s this moment project. A moment from the last week. A slice of life.
It was a dark and stormy night…
And I went out in it to photograph! Craziness, but it was my last lighting class in Portland and I didn’t want to miss it. Besides I had Kristen to keep me company. I forgot my tripod in the car, so until I bummed Kristen’s I was balancing my camera on anything I could find. …
A little me time
Nothing will halt online computer work like slow upload speeds and silly internet problems. I took this as a sign last Friday that I should take the afternoon off and scrapbook. I have a pile of pictures printed and not even in the simple three-up albums I keep them in. I need to clean out …

Classic Newborn
Yesterday was my dear friend Tracy’s birthday. To celebrate she asked that it be the day she viewed slideshows. I recently (2 weeks ago) shot the birth of her son, Peter. What an amazing experience. I was honored that she let me be there, and that she wanted the slideshow to be her special birthday …
Basement play-space: the reading nook
Ever since I stumbled upon her site I’ve been so inspired by Meg from Sew Liberated. In addition to a great blog she writes some awesome patterns (including this one that I’ve made multiple times). She trained as a Montessori teacher so I’m always looking to her blog for ideas about activities and environments for …
