Boy-Approved Family Photos!

September 11, 2013  •  Leave a Comment
Jax has two loves: throwing rocks, and being with his Grown-Ups. Angie & Bret came to our photo shoot empty-handed! "He doesn't need toys, we're at the beach!" Coaxed smiles for my camera were much more appealing after and between rock throwing sessions, so that was our take! THEN the session started to be fun, and our boy had lots of ideas and too...

This Little Loves his Bigs - a little peek!

August 27, 2013  •  Leave a Comment
Jax ADORES his grown-ups, can you see it? He is a kick! He asked for some shots of "just Mommy & Daddy" (he watched expectantly as I clicked away, and when satisfied, he ran into the picture too), and he asked Grandma to please join him for a picture (great idea, Jax!) This is just an early sneak peek at his family - I am happy to announce that mor...

Saree with Tea, You and Me

Shruti and Tanaya were delighted to indulge me by posing in their beautiful flowing sarees. I love the dynamic between mother and daughter as a child grows up, with Mama holding on just enough and letting go just enough. This was the first time Tanaya had worn a saree. Shruti enjoyed the wardrobe changes as much as her daughter did - how fun! - A g...

I know my daughters so intimately, all their good and bad, and I love them. I know them. This picture tries to express these thoughts, I'd title it "I know you. I love you."

Two sisters celebrating, 20 girls wearing party dresses, 10 women dressed for the occasion - I was basking in color and didn't want to stop clicking. Following lunch and cake, all the girls were enthralled with - a surprise! Ice cream flash frozen...

June 25, 2013  •  Leave a Comment

Then we set out with good friends and Grandpa Bob to bike the 20 mile, gentle gravel railroad grade from Snoqualmie Summit to Rattlesnake Lake. 100 yards into the trip we lit our headlamps and ente...
