One of these things is not like the others!

Go on.  Use your keen observational skills to vet out which family member finds my humor profounding lacking.

Ha!

That's okay, his mama got him to smile.

And mama-inspired smiles tend to last a while.

 

365, week 33

Man oh man, I encounter a lot of kids throughout the week!  Fortunately, I take great pleasure in creating their portraits.

225 of 365: Sometimes we meet up at the museum,

226 of 365: or at a playdate,

227 of 365: before school,

228 of 365: in my own kitchen,

229 of 365: or after school.

230 of 365: My dog has a Hitler moustache.  I don't know how I feel about that.

231 of 365: My parents' trees are showing the most exquisite signs of spring.  I love pink flowers; I'm such a girl.

 

365, week 32

218 of 365: The loquat is plentiful this year!  That means the birds and I won't have to fight over the fruit when they ripen.

219 of 365: My parents were right.  I really should have practiced more when I took those lessons.  But, you know, when you're 8, none of that matters so much.  And by "that", I mean logic and reason.

220 of 365: I enjoy the bokeh in the background more than the flowers in the foreground.

221 of 365: An actual child to balance this botanically heavy week:

222 of 365: I know this photo is over-processed, but I really love it.  Is it wrong to love my own portraiture?  Or maybe it's just wrong to admit it openly.

223 of 365: 

224 of 365: Right scene, wrong lens.

 

Pretty People

Life is so unfair.  The Pretty People really do get their way more often.  So let's say you're this cute:

You own it, baby!  You get to decide whether to play with your parents,

grab the dog's tongue,

or just hang and get loved on all day.

Being adorable is tough work!

 

Bebewearing Mamas

I had the privilege of photographing a number of beautiful carriers for Bebewearing Mama's soon to be revised site.  And just like my portraiture, I'm more enamored of the tightly cropped detail shots as opposed to the more technical full-sized products.  I'm primarily a wrapper, but a few of the mei tais were so gorgeous!

I tell ya, the possibility that I will not wear an itty bitty newborn ever again floors me sometimes.
