I hope you all have a wonderful holiday season and I hope to see you all in 2012!
Happy Holidays!
It's starting to become a bit of a tradition to feature Einstein on my business holiday cards (see last year's photo HERE) , and this year I had the talented Andrea from Forever Handmade crochet Einer a little candy cane striped scarf! I think it turned out super cute, but I'll let you guys be the judge...
Favorite 11 of 2011
Wow, what a year!! 2011 was a bit of a growing period for the business as I went through a branding revamp (which I'm in love with), so I apologize in advance for the two different watermarking on the photos below.
I have to say this cake smash was a great time, and these photos never fail to crack me up. Love his expressions!
First of all, I am SO incredibly thankful for all of my 2011 clients, both new and returning. I was given the opportunity to photograph several clients again and it was so much fun seeing how much the kids had grown! I cannot tell you how lucky I feel to have such great clients, many of whom I'm thankful to call friends. As always, it was incredibly difficult to narrow down my favorite 11 photos of 2011 (and I admit, I cheated a little bit with the series of three in there).
The faves from this year are shown in the order in which they were taken, starting with the adorable Oliver and ending with Kathleen and Brett. Did any of your faves make the cut?

Cozy Winter Engagement Outfit Ideas
Winter engagement photo sessions aren't for everyone, but they are SO pretty and unique! I have one coming up in late January/early February and I am super excited. I put together a couple outfits for inspiration, along with some tips for staying warm without looking bulky on a wintery photo session.
Tip #1: For women: put some leggings (regular will work fine, or look for a thermal/waffle knit pair for extra coziness) under your jeans. Your legs will thank you!
Tip #2: Better layer with the socks too, or wear a some that are designed to be warm in cold weather situations (like SmartWool).
Tip #3: Thermals are also good for layering under sweaters or jackets, adding thin (to avoid looking bulky) layers are going to also add warmth.
Tip #4: Find cozy hats that are also cute for photos if you want to keep your head warm, best to keep it on for the duration of the session rather than taking it on and off which creates tons of static + hat head.
You can click on any of these images for more information except the men's navy shirt (click here) and women's white hat (click here) in this first set.
