These two girls were so much fun to photograph! Anna was such a trooper even though I was seriously interrupting a nap. She went along and was a great little subject. I love the shot of her asleep in the sling. Lucy is a very sweet little lady. She kept very busy picking apples and smelling flowers -- could a photographer ask for any thing more? Check out those dimples... so cute. Thank you girls for playing!!

Mel had her super adorable parents in town and decided that since they hadn't had an updated photo since she was ten, that they would take advantage of my special and get some fun shots of them. We started out at Chrissy Field but the wind made it impossible to get good photos.... so we went into the Presidio and found a really great spot. Look at Mel -- isn't she so adorable??

Ok... these two are so super cool! We had such a great time today running around and playing games (trying to get Andy unstuck from the magic fence). Also getting really fun and natural photos. I love when the kids are being totally themselves... today I was blessed with just that.

As an artist, it is so great to have the freedom to do what I do best... today I was given complete freedom. I cannot thank you enough for that -- it really was a pleasure to hang with you this morning -- keep cool kids! RAH

Sativa and Joe are the perfect match! They only had eyes for each other all night. It was really the sweetest thing that my words really cannot do it justice... hopefully my photos will speak louder than I can.

Congrats you two love birds -- thank you for sharing your day with me! RAH

ps. isn't the photo of them on the bike the cutest??

Oh Wade!! I have been photographing the darling and sweet Wade since he was just a bump in the belly. One thing about him is that he always knows that the is being photographed. He pulls out all the stops with his BIG smiles and hams it up in all situations. I cannot tell you how amazing it is to see and document the first year of life -- all the changes, the warm fuzzy beginning to the first steps. It really goes by way too fast....

Thanks for letting me be a part of it all -- many hugs and many thanks to you!

Vio was so fun to photograph! We hung out by the symphony hall and city hall and got some really amazing images. I LOVE the last shot of her in black & white. She is simply radiant and totally inspiring. Keep celebrating Vio... you are the BEST!

Vegas baby! 7.07.07... can you get better than that?

Congrats you two! RAH
