son of splat (and john)

this little guy's mother's nickname is 'splat', so I couldn't resist photographing him in this crazy shirt (beware, your eyes will be grateful for the second set of photos in this post!) he couldn't be much cuter if he tried, such a sweet, cruisy little love. photos of his adorable big sister coming soon. sonofsplat

tiny and perfect.

this weekend I had the pleasure of photographing this beautiful family with the always awesome, wonderful rachel. i feel so lucky to get to shoot together, it is really such fun. she has a shiny new blog, make sure to check it out, along with her photos from the shoot here. IMG_9156blog

Coming to the US this visit, one of the things I was so looking forward to was meeting Rachel's great-niece and her family. It has been wonderful to get to know them in person after watching their journey together online all these months. She really is a little love and they make such a beautiful family.
