17 Months



I was sick all last week as I noted in the last post. I was too sick to post about Cohen turning 17 months old. Above are a couple of his 17 month portraits. The last image is of Cohen and Hadley. They are a little over 4 months apart. Hadley is so tiny that she makes Cohen look large, despite his small frame. I have a picture of Cohen and Hadley together just a few weeks after Hadley was born so it was fun to get a shot of them one year later together. Hadley's dad is Jeremy's business partner which has made for our families to become close. It will be fun to watch these two grow up together.

BUSY ME

I have been busy being sick, busy editing photos, busy being a mom, and busy working on a business plan and new photography website & blog. Despite all the being busy excuses I wanted to share a few more great shots from a wedding I shot back in September that I am almost finished editing. Click HERE for more images. Enjoy...

Past Due


So this post is over due... okay try a month past due! While I was home in Seattle visiting family back in September I had close friend and photographer, Jocelyn Whitsell (aka Jocelyn Brown) take Cohen and my portraits. This was so important to me since I am always behind the lens. It goes without saying that Jocelyn's pictures were wonderful and I will cherish them for a lifetime.
Thanks Joc. To check out more pictures from our session click here! I recommend using Jocelyn but of course that's only if I am not in town! ;)

This Time Last Year

Now: 17 months (1 week shy of...)

5 months

5 months (one week shy of...)

I am about a week early but what the heck... The above is one of Cohen's 17 month portraits. That is right! 17 months... Time really does go by fast. This time last year Cohen was only 5 months and was such a tiny little guy. He only weighed 13 lbs 10 oz. He was sitting on his own then and rolling over but that was about it. Boy, how things have changed!

Now he is weighing 23.5 lbs and is 32.5 in tall. He is so active, and so happy. He finally has four teeth and is working on another four more that I can see popping threw. He loves to hit the ball, throw the ball, watch Cookie Monster, watch any sport with Dad, especially Tiger Woods! He enjoys blueberries and raspberries, the web cam with the grandparents, and playing inside and outside from dusk until dawn. He is always moving, always doing something and he is very independent. You ask him to carry something, he will. Go get something and he will do that too. He even helps me clean! (he gets that from me, certainly not Jeremy!) He changes so much everyday. It will fun to see where he will be at this time next year!

{Silly}








Its no secret... Cohen is his own person! A silly one at that. I love that about him. Maybe with his unique since of style he will be on the cover of GQ or something! Until then he is my fashion model. He loves his new boots and wears them everywhere. Notice the two top teeth? Yup, those are new too!

Poor Bride

So it has almost been two months since Jocelyn tied the knot and still she has not received a single wedding image from me. This is not normal for me. Usually it is about 4-6 weeks after a wedding that I get the bride and groom their images. So what is taking so long... It could be that I took more shots at this wedding than any other wedding I have shot before. (I think I took over 2,000) It probably is more like I have just put her off... between traveling to Seattle twice, selling, closing and moving from our house with only 14 days to pull it off and just being a full time mom, part-time photographer, and whatever else is left to do whatever else it is that I do, I put Jocelyn off. Until now... I finished editing her images and they are in the mail to her! So just to make nice I wanted to post two handfuls of images for her. These are to tide her over until her cds arrive! Still one of my favorite weddings to date so enjoy.
