Little Lives Photography

Moving Right Along...

Little J arrived on the scene just last Wednesday and he was so unbelievably perfect.  Really...he was any photographer's dream; he was asleep when I arrived, allowed me to scrunch him up however I liked, and was even settling into "poses" when the shutter would click.  That, and such a beautiful baby.  I could have taken his pictures all day long.  

Big brother R (you may recognize him from my splash page) did, in fact, feel I was going to be taking the little guy's pictures all day long.  He kept saying in the other room,  "When is Elaine going to be DONE?"  At first I thought he was dying to get his own pictures taken (and, as usual, he was a champ)...but after hanging out with me for a bit in the backyard, he announced, "I'm done."

Well, then, there you have it.

Just Couldn't Resist

Posting one more of this little guy...I mean, who can resist a toddler's belly button? I know I can't...

Big Sis Has a Job All Lined Up

Here are a few from a session the other day; I may be hiring Miss R soon to scout locations for me.  She insisted upon showing me a little spot...I never knew it was even there...and man, the light!  It was gorgeous. It was hilarious because I told her that I might pay her to find good locations for me, and she said (without skipping a beat) "Sure, just give me a call."  And then there's little brother J who has the corner on the market for gorgeous eyes...wow!

A Few More Favorites

I love these...the one on the train seriously reminds me of something from a movie...

Another First

I had another first this past weekend...a wedding!  Talk about high stakes.  Definitely not my life's ambition at this point, but these are very good friends of ours. I was beyond nervous; really, not even reasonably so...but with such a gorgeous bride, what did I have to worry about?  Not to mention the most laid-back mother-of-the-bride on the planet.  Oh, and an awesome assistant...what was I thinking?  No reason to be nervous!  Thanks, A&A for trusting me with such an important part of your special day.

Not My Usual Gig

But we had so much fun! J & J are engaged to be married next year and we did a quick little engagement session down in Fountain Square.  What I like about kids is they'll usually try anything once...the same could be said about these two!  Thanks, you guys!
