Miss Madison

I had the pleasure of meeting this sweet baby girl this weekend along with her super cool mom and dad. Their home was amazing...warm and cozy, and built in the 1770's! Madison was such a sweetheart and we had fun coaxing smiles out of her adorable little face.

Here's your sneak peek....

Regency Rocks!

Okay, if you haven't stopped by the Regency cafe, go right now. I'm not kidding; this place is UNBELIEVABLE. First of all, the coffee is top-notch (and for you non-coffee drinkers out there like my hubby: the cocoa, tea and italian sodas are geat too)!

I stopped by there yesterday to eat a nice brunch, and I am still dreaming about the amazing handcrafted pastry I ate! Chris and his wife Marcy have created an absolute jewel just outside of the city in Lansdowne, PA, complete with delicious food, coffee, great customer service, and the perfect vibe. They even have live music nights and talented local artists displaying their works each month.

1-2-3...JUMP!

Last weekend I had the privilege of photographing the gorgeous Miss Taylor! We had so much fun playing in the mud, and she was the ultimate princess.

Taylor: "Mommy, I need a bow!"
Mom: "You have one here."
Taylor: "It has to be GOLD!"

We didn't let the mud stop us from stomping in puddles and playing chase (although she didn't have to try too hard to catch me....phew)! Later we had a tea party and she made the best "soup"...a very nice hostess!

So here are your little previews....enjoy!

She's Here!

Today (well, technically yesterday) I had the absolute privilege of holding a newborn. There is just nothing like that little warm bundle of perfection in your arms, is there?

Sweet, gorgeous Miss Luka made her way into the world at 7lbs, 15 ounces and was greeted with open arms (many, many arms) on the morning of MY birthday! Her brothers, Atti & Eli, were by her side throughout the entire photo shoot and wanted to be near their newest pack member at all times!

Here is a tiny peek of this morning's shoot....enjoy!

Baby Luka!

Welcome to the word sweet baby girl! Baby Luka was born on the morning of my birthday....I can't wait to meet you!

And we have a Winner....

That was quick! Alison, you will be receiving a session "on the house"! Everyone else, stay tuned, as I may have more fun giveaways in the near future...:)

My B-day Gift...

Okay, so because it is my birthday and I had a FABULOUS weekend, I am in a very good mood. So, here's the deal: I am giving a present to you from me for my b-day. The first person to email me about this post will receive a free photo session from me! Start typing....good luck!

Recycle Bank

I know, I know....I am a BAD blogger! Well, since today is my birthday, I am trying to steer clear of working, so instead I thought I'd share one of my favorite new things....Recycle Bank. They provide 'Incentive Based Recycling.' That's right, trade your old recycle-ables for goodies from hundreds of businesses....why WOULDN'T you participate in this?

Anyway, visit them and if you aren't already, get to recycling kiddos! http://recyclebank.com/home.cfm
