Both of my boys had Valentine’s Day parties in their classes yesterday afternoon.

I liked making the valentine holders.  I remember mine looking a lot like these.

I love this type of session.  I’m not giving any direction per se; I’m simply observing and capturing who they are, what they like to do, their current favorites…in essence, I’m creating a small snapshot of their life as it is now, for they change so quickly, don’t they?!

Hannah will be 4 in June.

Mom vs. photographer

Oh, was he ever angry with me!  And at that moment, I can’t say I was very pleased with him either.

He stomped out of the room and up the stairs.  I let a few minutes pass, heard nothing, and decided I’d better go have a chat with him.

I rounded the corner and this is what I saw -

Hike, views, and time together

February 2nd, 2009  |  Published in Travel  |  2 Comments
