I haven’t been posting recently because I have been caught up in a few things that sidetracked me. This week is of course registering the boys for school and getting them ready for next week. I also was involved in a freeway multiple car accident last week that shook me up a little but I assure you I am unhurt and grateful that it didn’t turn into something tragic for the other parties involved.

Last week I traveled to Orinda to photograph 2 year old J and his little 1 year old brother C. Absolutely beautiful children and absolutely mobile children. Mom is surprising Dad with some portraits of the boys, so if you happen to know these kids, don’t tell Dad, it’s a secret!!!

Mom was such a good sport! These boys had cupcakes! It was C’s birthday the next day and they had some left over from a celebration.

You have heard the famous quote. It’s absolutely true. You can spot a summer tourist in San Francisco by the tank tops,shorts and flip flops they are wearing. The sweatshirt vendors make a killing down at Fisherman’s Wharf because people don’t plan for our lovely gloom of summer and freeze their tushes off.

My clients, however are residents of the city by the bay and know how to dress their adorable son, H! H is about to turn two years old and he is a mighty bundle of energy and spunk. He’s on the go and interested in things like trucks, balls, boats, sand, sticks and leaves. Very happy little fella. We had our summer session and here are a few sneak peaks for his mom and dad. They were both with me at the session and very nice folks to hang out with. We met at Chrissy Field which is one of my favorite San Francisco locations. It’s close to the Presido, which is another favorite as well as Baker Beach. You can’t beat any of those locations for unique settings.

H is very fascinated by nature. He’s a boy’s boy. He’s all boy.

I brought along my dog toy (which doubles as a kid’s toy). It’s a rubber chicken that looks EXACTLY like my brother-in-law. I call it Uncle Dave. Unfortunately, no one else in our family recognizes the resemblance except my husband. They think I am insane. H is already throwing like a champ.

The water fascinated him as well. Here he is peering over the wall, staring out at Marin County and Alcatraz in the distance.

Apparently I am getting more and more of the combination together which I enjoy. We just returned from Southern California for a little downtime after the “termination” of my IT career. Sara Evans was playing at the Ventura County fair and my husband is a huge fan. Me, not so much but I admit she’s a good singer. We also stopped off in Camarillo to grab a few shots of this little miracle girl and her siblings. I hope her parents don’t mind me sharing the story with you–well actually Dad gave me permission (but I was hoping Mom would speak up.)

I just want to say that it’s never too late to have the family you always dreamed of having. No matter how your child comes to you, the opportunity to parent a child is by far one of the most rewarding lifetime experiences. S and R tried for many years to conceive a child on their own and finally adopted their first child, a boy. M came along and guess what happened one month later? R found out she was pregnant! At the age of 40 she delivered a brother to 10 month old M.

It gets even better! We received a call a few months ago that a happy surprise was coming. R was expecting another child–a girl–at 45. Congrats to the family and to her big brothers M and M. Ha ha…sounds like a candy plug doesn’t it?

By the way, Maggie is the new family dog. Sweet addition to an already full house!
