Maternity Pictures

I just love maternity portrait sessions! It's such a joy to help a couple capture memories of this special time. On Monday, I spent the morning with Magda, her husband, and their three babies (two gorgeous Persians and an adorable Papillon). We had a great time and took some really, really beautiful pictures. It was doubly fun for me since Magda is an artist and could therefore understand my utter glee at finding cool areas for posing and beautiful lighting. I'm famous for announcing that a shoot is over only to then turn around and find the most stunning spot for a picture. And usually my model will oblige me and hop into place, which I always appreciate. But I doubly appreciate it when my model is nearly 37 weeks pregnant! Anyway, here are two pictures from our maternity shoot. I can't wait to show them the rest:)

Rain, Rain Go Away!

Raise your hand if you're tired of the rain! Our first week of fall has definitely been a wet one. But on Saturday, the Ross family didn't let the weather dampen their spirit as we met up at White Clay Park in Newark, DE for a family portrait session. Since we were bringing together so many busy members of their family, it was either Saturday ... or next year! So, we decided to get our feet a little wet, and brave the elements. Fortunately, we only had to run for cover once! And towards the end of our session we even caught a little glimpse of the sun. Cloudy days are my favorite for shooting portraits (since the clouds diffuse the light), so the pictures turned out great. Here's a few to hold them over until the rest are ready:) - Kate

Gibraltar Gardens

Today I met up with Cassidy, her Mom, and little sis' for some fun, casual graduation pictures. Cassidy has always loved Gibraltar Gardens, so it was the perfect backdrop for her shots. I can't say enough about how well the gardens are kept and how much fun it is to roam about in search of picture-perfect nooks. I never get tired of it. Our session today was complete with some daring adventures (I won't tell if you guys don't;)), but it was all worth it. The pictures are just beautiful. And since it's rough to wait for all of them to be ready, here are a few to hold the gals over. - Kate

Three (out of 20!) Grandbabies

Today I spent the morning with Joan and three of her grandbabies (mom's and dad's, too). Joan's a busy Grandma juggling 20 grandkids! But there's nothing like bringing together the cousins and watching them have fun together. And since it's so tough to wait for the pictures to be ready, I thought I'd post a few of my favorites from our session today. I hope that Joan and her family love them as much as I do!:) - Kate
