In a (New) World of My Own

I’ll have none of that ‘Woods’ nonsense on my blog, thank you Jennifer! Meet my niece, Ella, offspring of Joe and Jennifer.

My week has been all drama, headaches, tears and, yes, crying babies.

Angry Caira is angry?

I’m raising the children of the corn: Blue-eyes, blond-haired monsters who have this wicked power to melt my heart. This photo is, I guess, Garrett’s first posed portrait, although it isn’t the heart-warming and cutsey photo of a sleeping baby that photographers and parents have come to expect. Garrett is curious. His eyes jerk open, his head pops up and he stares at me, at his mum, at Caira, and at anyone else nearby. His head twitches one way and then another as he considers all the angles.

Icy blue eyes boring into your soul.

Caira doing what Caira does best – totally ignoring any direction and running around like a two-legged cheetah.

This post is dedicated to Caira, who has been necessarily ignored by her parents in the past few days – we’ve been off at the hospital with Garrett. If you’re reading this in oh, 2020, we’re sorry. We both love you very much, but the last few days have been hectic and distracting. If all goes to plan we’ll wing you away to a buffet of your choice in the morning for some shameless spoiling.

We need a razor and a pin, ASAP!

Yesterday I met mum Hillary and Karmen at Cottonwood Canyon Park in Summerlin for an early-morning photoshoot. It was fun: the weather was perfect, Karmen mugged wonderfully for the camera and mum Hillary was radiant. We ran for a 90 minutes, changed outfits, posed on steps, rolled in the grass and otherwise everyone had a great time!

Shawna, her family and I all got together in Desert Breeze park first thing this morning. Her daughter was camera shy, but heart-winningly adorable. I couldn’t find many images that stood well alone, but when I went back through them again with an eye for montages and sets I found some excellent compositions.
