Baby Andrew

And here is the latest in our family. I hear Andrew has been keeping his parents up all night, and might have some cow milk intolerance. That's either becoming more common or the doctors are better at detecting it.. I feel for you cousin, it's hard to function without proper rest.



I always try to get this shot, but it's not an easy one on the parents.  I think the baby feels unbalanced in our hands that way, and it's complicated to pose them just so.  I think Matt managed pretty well.

I recently went to a really nice home and garden furniture store in Pensacola, called DUH, and purchased several baskets, containers, specifically for the new born sessions, Andrew is all curled up in one of these.



I just love his little hand here

Is that not sooo cute?



Good luck Matt and Laura on those sleepless nights.

Laura

These are pictures of my cousin Laura, pregnant with her fourth boy!!!
And soon, I'll post pictures of her new born, Andrew. He looks just like his 3 brothers, as Laura put it when she first saw him, she delivered the same baby 4 times.
Since the age of 7, my parents sent me every other year to the US during summer break to my uncle and aunt's to learn english. I owe it mostly to Laura to be now bilingual, we share many childhood memories and are as close as sisters. I am for ever grateful to her father, oncle Michel, to have played match maker successfully some years ago, and to now have my precious family. Here's a portion of hers:

She's beautiful, always





This is her oldest, Christian, he didn't want me to take his picture, and only agreed for a 2sec hug.  I love what we got out of our limited time!

This is sweet BJ, until Andrew came along, he was enjoying his position as youngest of the family, but he's thrilled with the arrival of the baby.



And last is Patty, they are all super smart, good looking and nice...

BJ, he's just so gentle.

Bonnie & Jacob's "E" session

Just wanted to share a few images from a recent engagement session. Bonnie and Jacob requested to take some of the pictures at the "goofy golf", and others at the bluffs. I had never been to either place, and I was a little dubious about our first location, but I think the result is fun. I felt I had a little room for spunk and originality and had a great time editing these. The bluffs was a little more of a traditional approach. I think they make a lovely couple and I'm looking forward to their wedding.
