Summer nostalgia; a couple of years ago - ancient monument in Sardinia

 

identity crisis: ingenuous vs. independent

  

You think that you'd do better

To stick with someone older

Because we're too young

  

secret #4: way too impulsive and indulgent for my own good.

Ludvig is still young (2 1/2) but he's growing up too fast. That's why I love those photos where I can still see the puppy within <3

This photo makes me think of a big girl. She looks so grown here it hurts.

 

Large: 'baby come back to me...' On Black

I was asked by the mother of 12yo daughter to photograph her as an adult. Right there I had to step back a bit and get an explanation. At 12yo and 5’8” she has already been approached by some top level modeling agencies in LA, but they can’t sign her until she’s 14, but need photos showing her physical stature, poise, look, etc so they can be ready to sign her once she’s able to, and to see her progress during that time. So this is one of those tricky situations where I have to consider the client, take age-appropriate photos (and poses) yet try to showcase her talent. This was essentially an hour test shoot in the suburbs in exchange for sushi. :)

 

Now this girl’s favorite show is America’s Next Top Model, and it was almost funny to watch as she transposed her look from a giggly 12yo into an intense model. As soon as I put the camera up, her giddiness disappeared and a fierce look came out. Throughout the shoot, her and her mom would say chat back and forth, "Well, Tara always says to... " "Tara likes it when models... "

Happy Autumn Roid Week!

 

Jacob is six months and two days old. He visited the doctor today and afterwards, as a reward for being so good about getting his shots, I took him to the playground so he could swing on the swings. It's hard to tell that he's happy here but he really does love the swings!

First time in the grass. He wasn't too sure about being down there all by his lonesome.

Jacob is 8 months old today. Of course this was taken a couple of days ago but my little guy is growing up so fast!

A companion piece of sorts to yesterdays photo. A nice change from taking photos of "things."

A bit of a redux of a photo I did back in October.

At that time he was still just beginning to crawl. Now he walks with confidence.

When we first seen the movie frozen in theaters my youngest daughter could not stop talking about her Frozen birthday at peter piper pizza. (Where BIG sister had her birthday last year) I am so happy I was able to make her dreams come true.

He's 2 1/2! The time is going to fast for me. He's going to go from toddler to little boy in the blink of an eye. I just know it!

"You've got a friend in me" Sung by Woody in Toy Story.

 

You've got a friend in me

You've got a friend in me

When the road looks rough ahead

And you're miles and miles

From your nice warm bed

Just remember what your old pal said

Boy, you've got a friend in me

You've got a friend in me

You've got a friend in me

You've got a friend in me

You've got troubles, well I've got 'em too

There isn't anything I wouldn't do for you

We stick together and we see it through

You've got a friend in me

You've got a friend in me

 

These 2 have been friends since they were very small. They crack each other up...spend hours on the trampoline & in the pool and soon will be off to Middle School together. I hope they will always be friends & be there for each other and I really hope they will always be able to make each other laugh! :)

Reflection in the car window, makes me look fat, ha ha.
