Almost two years ago, I was privileged to meet the most wonderful family to document their first pregnancy and new baby.  I was beyond thrilled to hear last year that they were expecting for a second time–I have been looking forward to this session for months!  Nadia has grown into such a beautiful little girl (with the same darling chin dimple from Grandpa) and is the perfect big sister.  Baby Ella couldn’t be sweeter.  I just wanted to snuggle her all day:).

Thank you so much for sharing both of your little people with me–it’s truly been an honor to watch your family grow:).

This past year was quite an adventure.  2011 brought so many challenges as well as blessings–and in the midst of it all, I had the privilege to photograph some of the most wonderful and beautiful clients.  I can’t wait to see what is in store for this coming year!

Way back in October, I took my three big girls out to play a bit before the cold weather hit for the year.  Little did I know we would have multiple warm spells in the weeks following.  It was so fun to go out without a plan and just have some fun capturing them at this age–awkwardness, missing teeth, teeth we have yet to grow into, giggles–it’s all part of childhood.

From the bottom of my heart–love you girls!

One of my biggest photo priorities was to get images of Eva with her Daddy and her siblings, so that became the goal for days 10 and 11.  I thought briefly of trying to get a group shot of all the kids, but I had already arranged for the supremely talented Brittany Woodall of Baby as Art in San Diego to come and photograph Eva.  I decided to leave the impossible shots for her.  And she got them–you can see them and all of her other beautiful work with Eva here.

In the meantime, I photographed all of my sweet people with my newest little person.  Warms my heart:).

Now, how to get a sibling shot with a not-quite-two-year-old who is not so sure about this new baby sister (as in, he wouldn’t even look at her for 2 or 3 days)?  I shot 5 frames in 30 minutes and 2 ended up being keepers.  But they make me giggle:).

Could I be any luckier?  I don’t think so:).
