Maternity Shoot on the Beach in January!

30aReally! This shoot took place in January on  Short Beach in Stratford, CT!   At first when I spoke with Melissa I thought this will never work, the temperature had been in the single digits for weeks.  How can she go to the beach and strip down…she’ll freeze.  So we waited and watched the temp and to both our surprise there were a few days that actually hit 40!  So we went for it, funny thing was 2 days later we had snow and the temps went down again into the single digits.  I think that mother nature knew how badly she wanted these shots done at the beach, and it warmed up just for her. 🙂 Now when the baby comes in  a few weeks we have to bring him down here and take some of these same photos with him, hopefully by mid to late April we can have a little warm up again.  Melissa looks amazing for being 36 weeks pregnant!! Keep a look out in a few months for baby Cameron! 26a22a24a212919a18a16a 15a 13a7a 6a 4a 35b

-Marina-

Ahhhhh Marina, how adorable she is.  This photo shoot was a bit exhausting.  She was FULL of energy!  being just shy of 2 I knew what I was getting into when I got there 😉 .  She was laughing then crying, then running and climbing, she was playing and hiding, and throwing and screaming, she was stubborn then easy going. She wouldn’t sit in front of the Tree, but then again  wouldn’t any 2 year old do the same thing…. Her mom had given up hope on getting any good photos of her.  BUT…she did… not only was she happy with the many photos, but was excited that we  captured all the “faces” of Marina.   She is so adorable we ended up with almost 100 photos.  I think that was a good days work 🙂 Three_Rectangles_Squares34 IMG_3411 IMG_340628Love The Shoes!!!!

Christmas Is My Favorite Time Of The Year!

I LOVE Christmas! It’s the only holiday where I go crazy decorating,  it takes me 3 days to decorate just the inside of my house.  My husband does the outside and he can normally get it done in a day.  I have always loved it, and have collected ornaments for as long as I can remember.  For every occasion I’d pick out an ornaments.  Every vacation, every milestone in my life, my engagement, my wedding, my new house, my pregnancies, my kids first day of school. EVERYTHING!  I have over 1,100 ornaments on my tree! Not one branch in empty, some branches even have 2 ornaments, and I have a 9′ huge tree. At this point I have also gotten mini trees for my kids rooms, and some ornaments have moved there I may have to get a forth tree!! 🙂 Anyway I was bored one day and started taking pictures…. IMG_1624IMG_2234IMG_3311 IMG_2454 IMG_3150 IMG_3152 IMG_3144 IMG_3153 IMG_3181 IMG_3203 IMG_3230IMG_3250 IMG_3252 IMG_3294 IMG_3296 257122150 257122614 257122630 257122686 257122691 257122698 257122705 263689967 263689970 263689974 263690055257123209
