once wed

i am so absolutely thrilled to have some of my work featured on once wed.  if you have not been to this lovely blog, you must go and check it out.
here are a few more images from lindsey and dan's wedding.

chocolate

we had a fun halloween weekend although i ate too much candy!
the kids went through several costumes.  sam was a fireman, superman and a skeleton.  ryan wore this cute little dress from china, a tiger hat and a dog costume.  they would change their outfits for each outing and it is all a matter of comfort.  some kids love wearing costumes but my kids could care less about what they are wearing.
can someone please take the chocolate away from me?

new orleans

my visit to new orleans was absolutely fabulous.  i had a great time with dana and fortunately i was there on a weekend when she had some time to spare!  here are a few highlights...

a pre-halloween parade!

the french quarter.

i thought this was an interesting perspective.  a door from the french quarter next to a door from a house impacted by hurricane katrina.

we went down to the 9th ward and drove around the neighborhood.  there are signs of life coming back and we saw some construction going on but there is a stillness to the air.  i couldn't help but think about the people who had to leave their homes - a whole community is now spread across the country.  there is a lot of open space now because many homes were swept off of their foundations and now there are tall grasses taking the place of homes.

trick or treat

happy halloween!
have a safe and sweet weekend.

corso kids

I had a great time photographing these two kids at their home.  Sometimes a photo session at home is the best way to help little ones feel comfortable and at ease!

So cute!

family photos

we had our family photos taken a few weeks ago.  to be honest, i have a hard time being on the other side of the camera! i suppose it is a good experience to be the photographed instead of the photographer.
i am heading out to new orleans to visit my sister this weekend.  dana is a 2nd year medical student at tulane and i am so excited to see the city through her eyes.  this is also a treat for myself after the marathon from last weekend.

here is a recent photo of ryan.  i can't say that she is 'my baby' anymore...she insists that i call her 'a little girl'.  they grow up so fast!
