Happy Baby

My littlest guy just turned 5 months on Tuesday, and I think he's just adorable! In fact, I dare you to keep a straight face when you look at this last photo.

Something Different

With these clothes and this hat, it almost looks like he lived 100 years ago.

My Inspiration

My little foursome (OK, some not so little), my little muses.

First Day of Spring

The Salt Lake Temple on Temple Square in Salt Lake City, Utah.

D. and I took the kids to Temple Square today.

At 6:00 this morning it was snowing heavily and by 10 o'clock the sun was shining- the first day of Spring in Utah.

I love the sun flare on this photo. (if you click on the photo, you can see it bigger)

A New Place

We found a great new place for outdoor photos- it will be awesome later in the Spring when all the flowers are in bloom and everything looks fresh and green.

It was a little chilly this morning, but we still had fun and I was able to capture some really nice photos of R.

We are so looking forward to warmer weather!

Storyboards are a contemporary way of displaying some favorite photos of a child. They showcase the child's personality, a milestone, the interaction with a favorite toy, or just the simplicity and sweetness of the moment.

Retro Cool

J. received this Radio Flyer Retro Rocket for Christmas and it fast became a favorite.

I love the simplicity of this photo- just a little boy and his best plaything.

A New Little Face

This is little G., who will be 2 in April. She is such a little cutie with big, beautiful brown eyes.
I had the privilege of photographing her today and we had so much fun. This is just a sneak peek for her parents, there are a lot more to see.

Baby in Teacup

I'm now catching up with last year's trends in baby photography, like this ceramic teacup and saucer (which is actually a flower pot). I couldn't resist, though, and little I. is just the perfect size for this .
I had D. buy the teacup and gave it a trial run, by placing I. in it- as you can see, he doesn't mind it at all, and that's how I captured this cute photo.

Another One

I'll be trying a few different headers until I get one that fits right-
please let me know how this looks.

Little Boys in Overalls

There is something about little boys in denim overalls without shirts- I just love to see them like that, so cute.

D. let me photograph him when I said I only needed his legs, and I love J.'s expression- something in between being a toddler and an older boy, asserting his independence in the aloof way he clings to D.'s leg.

And little I. is just a darling, no matter what.

Technical Difficulties

It has come to my attention that my new blog header appears distorted and is hanging out of the frame-
if anyone does not see it right, will you please e-mail me or leave a comment to this post? I'd appreciate that, so I can get everything looking right.

And while we're talking of possible faults, if you find anything else amiss, please let me know.

Thank You.
