I can’t wait to post more from this gorgeous session with Virginia & Mark. Lots more soon!
We were having a family dinner at my mom’s house a couple of weeks ago, when I noticed some gorgeous light outside, grabbed my brother, and convinced him to venture out to the backyard for a handful of shots. The light was just too pretty to waste. He was a good sport :)
Oh, and look who followed us on our little hike: Callie the cat:
Watchin’ meerkats…
There was a monkey in the window, watching us while we ate lunch. Dawson kept an eye on him :)
Guess who gave himself a haircut just before our zoo trip? You can really see it here, ha!

from our day at the zoo with Dawson. I’ll post a few more soon, but I just had to share this one:

This weekend has been GLORIOUS, weather-wise. I am hoping it means our awful, sweaty, record-temp summer is on its way out and that a nice, crisp fall is following on its heels.
I just barely beat the sun home and caught a handful of shots this afternoon:
My, this dog has expensive taste in toys.
I cannot even begin to count how many late summer nights my brother and I spent camped out in our living room, transfixed by a running rotation of our favorite 80s movies. Classics such as Indiana Jones, The Goonies, and Space Camp (yes, Josh, despite what you tell me, I consider Space Camp a classic,) were all on repeat. But top honor has always and will always go to the Back to the Future trilogy. It is the one movie to this day, if I am flipping channels and spot it, you can kiss the next two hours goodbye.
So the other day when The Orpheum Theatre asked their Facebook fans to list their favorite Doc Brown quote, my fingers were typing before I even knew what I was doing.
I only realized after I got a message a few hours later from The Orpheum that I had even entered a contest! Typing “It’s your KIDS, Marty! Something’s gotta be done about your KIDS!” won us two tickets to see Back to the Future on the big screen! My husband and I were beside ourselves. Even though we have probably seen that movie thousands of times on the trusty VCR, neither of us had ever seen it in a theater, considering we were only toddlers when it came out.
We made a night of it, I donned my Delorean t-shirt (yes, I have one. Biggest nerd ever) and it was AWESOME. Best date EVER.
Pardon the iPhone pics. In all the excitement we forgot to bring the big camera. Not sure I could have focused on taking photos anyway!
I recently got a chance to do a quick mini-shoot with Ben and Will. Can ya tell they’re brothers? ;)
I wasn’t kidding when I said Holly was ready for the fireworks. She LOVES them!
Every year we take her out to the front yard, where we can see the city fireworks. This year we goofed and missed the city’s show by ten minutes, but our neighbors were happy to oblige Holly with a show of their own:
She isn’t scared of them, doesn’t try to chase them, she just stands there and enjoys the show. So stinkin’ cute.
