We met up with Jon, Rachel, and the girls at the park a week or so ago to document Evie’s 9 months on this earth.  Of course I love little babies but from this age on they are so expressive and fun to photograph!

Evie’s new trick – she’s so proud! :o)

It has been too long since we got the whole family in one frame so we took the opportunity for a family session as well.  So many times parents get caught up in photographing their children and they forget to, or make excuses not to, get in the picture with them.  If you think back on your most treasured photographs from throughout your life, aren’t they the ones with the people you love?

These will mean so much to the girls as they get older…

So the Croatian seaside is harder to find that you might think – especially if the boys in the car are looking harder for a colosseum than the seaside. ;o) On our day trip to Croatia, we finally found a piece of seaside just as the sun was setting. Julia was our model for the day and she did very well showing us her “serious European model” side. What do you expect? It’s tough being two and dragged around by a bunch of adults! I don’t know why we’re all so obsessed with making people smile for a camera anyway. There’s something very natural about a subtle pleasant look.

Meet Julia –

Even the best European models crack a smile for the camera sometimes. :o)
