I'M ON FACEBOOK

I realize it has been a long time since I last updated my blog. With facebook becoming such a mainstream networking site, I've been sharing my photos there. Since my last post here, so much has happened. We have settled into our home in Scottsdale and had a baby boy.

We are remodeling our home, so there is always a part of the house that is torn up. It's a good thing I'm a visionary because this is a sloooooow process. Dealing with contractors and dust is no fun when you are pregnant or have a newborn plus 2 other little ones. Naps don't happen, schedules are thrown off, and the bank account is drained!

Baby Dawson was born on July 5th at 4:27 PM. He was 8 pounds 3.9 ounces. After 2 girls, we finally got our boy. Thank goodness! He came out with the cord wrapped around his neck and was a little jaundice, but is healthy and growing like a weed now. Having a newborn, toddler, and preschooler is just as much work as I thought it would be, but somehow I am surviving it. I've learned how to prioritize and let some things go (like the housekeeping and blogging).

If you'd like to take a peek at our recent photo shoots, please "like" my facebook page. I am focusing on commercial work this year, and may continue in this direction for a while. I get all the thrills of babies and children in my own household and don't have the desire to experience it at work too, if you know what I mean. So stock photography and commercial work suit my needs right now.

BOUTIQUE MODELING

My younger daughter, Parker, is 14 months now. It didn't take her long to catch on to "appropriate model/studio behavior." I've had the studio packed up for the last 6 months as we relocated to Arizona and did the whole house hunters expedition. Now that we're settled, the studio is back up, and it was time to introduce it to Parker.

Her first shoot was a disaster, but I think that was due to big sis [Peyton] standing there crying out of jealousy, "I'm not gonna let Parker model. I'm the only model." There were real tears as she hovered over us.

My 2nd attempt in the studio with Parker was MUCH better since I did it when big sis was at school. It was just Mommy and Parker, playing in the studio. Reminds me of all the fun shoots I had with Peyton as a toddler. She was about the same age when I started working with her. Amazing how she's already 4.5 yrs! Time flies!

Here is Parker modeling Boutique Sew Unique.
