I was outside this evening, taking photos of my yard to send to my former neighbors in Chicago in the hopes that they would immediately put their house on the market and move to Lexington. To our street in particular. Unfortunately my backyard looks like a post-autumn apocalyptic mess so I don’t think my photos...

There comes a time in your child’s life when you stop taking photos of them in the tub. They get too old, too embarrassed, too modest, or - if you have a 5-year-old like mine - not modest at ALL. I turned down many requests this evening to “Take a picture of my tushy!”
But…there is...

When you’re tired…
…you’re tired.
While this scene looks a lot like this morning when school started back from the holiday break, this is actually a scene from our hotel stay when we first moved to Lexington. Our house was not ready for us for a few days, so we spent time at a Marriott, which with kids means no sleep. Or at...
Hiatus
If you haven’t noticed, I’m a little quiet.
Since the move to Lexington in November, we have been busy unpacking, getting settled and finding our way around town. And being happy. Really, really happy.
Business will kick up again in a couple months, because apparently it gets spring-like by late February here (yippeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!) so I am getting...
Grand finale
I am writing this blog post from my bare desk in Lexington, KY, where we have been for a week now. There is a big box of files and envelopes and staplers and pens sitting next to me that hasn’t been unloaded yet, which pretty much looks like much of the rest of the house,...
And so it goes
Tomorrow morning at 8 a.m., there will be a giant moving truck pull onto our street, ready to load up all the “stuff” we’ve acquired over the past eight years. An amazing amount of “stuff.” It really is true that you have no idea what you have until you have to move it.
It’s a bittersweet...
Honey
I had a hard time coming up with a title for this post that captured the essence of this session. The leaves were this magnificent gold color, but “gold” wasn’t really the best adjective. So I went to the trusty thesaurus.com and looked up golden, and I came across this word: honey. Honey was perfect, because not only does...
Little Pink Noses
We had a frosty morning the day of this session. Nice sunlight but a bit nippy to the senses. The session was originally supposed to take place the week before, but Mother Nature was rather brutal in October and, as I found myself doing more times than not, I rescheduled this rained out session and...
The gift
Seriously, genes do not get any better than this.
I had the pleasure last spring to do senior photos for the eldest of the bunch, so when she emailed me with her idea to do a secret session with her brothers as a surprise gift for her mom, I was thrilled to be able to do it. ...
