Vacation '09: Cole Meets Beach

Weeeerrreeee Baaaccckkk! What a bummer too, because I could have used another 7 days. Taking a 7 month old to the beach is not as restful as you might think. But enough complaining, we had a great time. Cole loved the beach......sort of. It took some coaxing and a few days of getting his feet wet, so to speak, to turn him into a beach bum. But by the end of the week, he was happy as a clam. We all made it through with minimal burns, minimal sleep deprivation, and maximum photography. I had waaaayyyy too many photos to sort through this year and some video too, so pardon the delayed upload. So here are just a handful, of the plethora of pics taken at the beach....

Back by popular demand....

Heeeeeee's Back! Master Cole himself. I have had several complaints(you know who you are) that I have not had a Cole update since Easter. So here you are. Video of the boy eating in bed (what a bad habit). Messy photos of him after devouring sweet potatoes. Non messy photos of the boy in his excersaucer. And finally, the boy all decked out while attending my friend Carrie's wedding. Check out that sweater vest. He is the man!
Leave Cole a comment and tell him how cute he is.....
Much love

Griffin, GA

Once again, I had the honor of working with the amazing Nina Sutherland. I was her second shooting a wedding in Griffin, GA. I had an amazing time and I learned a lot from watching a true professional at work. Thank you Nina, for the opportunity to learn from the best. And for letting me borrow a page out of your playbook using the medium format. I am looking for one as we speak....

Stormea and her Mom...

I had the pleasure and honor of taking some portraits of the Taylor's new arrival, Stormea. And she is growing like a weed. What a beautiful baby girl. Here are just a few keepers from the session.
PS....Ash will never know how much effort went into photo shopping the graphic off her t shirt....
