This past week has been crazy busy as a mother not a photographer. I am still waiting to get my data back from the guys downtown. Have I mentioned how much I love my Daddy! He is off to pick up my computer hard drive and my new external drive today. Can't wait to get my computer and all its guts back. I have another computer, but its just not the same.
I did a shoot with my one year old boy this weekend, mowhawk and all, and I am excited to get some sneak peeks up for you soon. He is such a character. We (my Kayla and I) traveled around Hope looking for the perfect place. I had a few in mind, and Kayla had some ideas when we got there. My son ended the shoot with a dip in the river and a few sprinkles from the local sprinklers, he was not impressed with being wet and cold!
Some thing else exciting: I have patiently waiting for my phone to ring with a particular person on the other end. I have been given the honor of filming a birth.....Yup you read right a birth.... tastefully of course. Momma Crystal is due on the 24th according to her doctors, and she has been for some appointments with her midwife to "speed" the process.....Nothing!
I am very excited to be a part of her journey as I too have children, three to be exact. I have been photographing Crystal since she was 3 months pregnant. We have done a monthly photo, as well as a full Maternity Family session. I am patiently waiting to get the pics back so I can put it all together! This is an exciting process for me. I have known Crystal for a long time but this opportunity has brought us much closer. I have really gotten to know her. She is expecting her 2nd child and over the moon! She has a great family and I have loved each encounter.
Maybe next time I blog I will have the stories from the birth as well as more sneak peeks! Till then!

This is a first for me, not only to be in a room during someones birthing experience but photographing no less. When I told my husband, his response was, EW! Really? I laughed and said "um ya, not like i will be taking pictures of her "parts". "
