Last weekend in Newport, RI

Mine on Monday

Becky — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 01:55:53 +0000

One from this weekend down on the beach. Admire her cute pillowcase dress. These were REALLY trendy on one of my photography boards about 3 years ago. I was so excited to order one for Hannah – she was 18 months old. I was so disappointed when it arrived and was way too big. Now, looking back, I should have sent it back to the seller…they obviously sent a toddler dress instead of the 12 month dress I ordered (Hannah was little for her age). Now 3 years later, it finally fits! So maybe I am a few years behind the trend – or possibly they are still in – I have no idea. Hannah loves it so that is all that matters!!!

Mine on Memorial Day {CT family photographer}

Happy Memorial Day! We started off our morning with breakfast at the beach. After we ate our fine breakfast of Burger King, we headed to the little beach to hunt for beach glass. Beach glass is usually abundant in brown, green and clear…most likely because I think most beach glass starts as discarded beer bottles. Blue beach glass is coveted because it is much less common. I am happy to report that our hunting this morning resulted in a lot of brown, green and clear but also the brilliant blue. After our search was over, we headed to the playground and the bigger beach. We were amazed by the amount of people staking out their spots for the day…some were even started the charcoal grills at 9am!

Well I had plans to do a Mine on Monday post of camera phone photos of Hannah riding her bike and Leah playing in her car but I am having technical difficulties. I have transferred photos from my phone numerous times and today it just won’t work. So I went back and found this fun sister shot from a recent visit to the Children’s Museum of Southeast Connecticut. They don’t even look like they are fighting over the organ!

If you haven’t ever visited this museum, definitely check it out. My girls love it! http://www.childrensmuseumsect.org/

Words on Wednesday – Snapshot edition

Becky — Wed, 28 Apr 2010 22:47:45 +0000

Honestly, with all the years that I danced and taught dance, how could I possibly post these two snapshots without ANY words? So no Wordless Wednesday for you today!!!

We had photos for Hannah’s dance recital today. It was fun to watch another photographer capture the attention of ALL ten 4 year olds during the group shot. They also did some individual shots. I snapped these quick in the waiting area before she got her photo taken. I am pretty impressed with how polished her hair looked. Good thing you cannot see the back. I am hoping her hair grows at least a little bit in the next four weeks so I can do a bun instead of two tiny ponytails!

TUESDAY edition!

I think this is the best shot I have gotten of the two of them together in a long time. I know very few photographers who have an easy time photographing their own children. We actually dread it. So this one really makes me smile.

Hannah. Complete with Princess Tiana shirt and Little Mermaid socks…staples in our house. She wanted to hold the canvas of her so I could take a photo of it. (You would think a photographer’s child would know better than CHEESE, wouldn’t you? Ahhh…4 year olds!)

I truly love this canvas of her and it makes me so happy every time I walk by it in my house. (It is a 16×20 for those keeping track and thinking about going BIG!)

So this weekend I pulled out my camera to get a quick shot of Hannah for her school valentines. Hannah was fairly cooperative and Leah was sleeping. Once Leah woke up, she also wanted to participate but really only on her own terms…which is not having to look at the camera or do what I say. I decided to bust out the valentine suckers and attempt a few shots together. They are by no means perfect – but I love them (the photos AND the girls).

Hannah in her heart tee and a pink petti. And showing off her cute new haircut!

Our little ragamuffin straight from her nap. Finally some eye contact! Check out her poor lip. We aren’t entirely sure what she does at night but her skin is a disaster. The doctor said she probably sucks on it while she is sleeping. If anyone has any suggestions, I would be happy to hear them. I almost laughed out loud when the doctor suggested a band-aid at night. That wouldn’t even last two seconds!

Mine on Monday – Birthday edition {CT children photographer}

Becky — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 02:06:18 +0000

This is my first Mine on Monday post. I got the idea from a friend and fellow photographer, Jaidean of Jaidean Baker Photography. It gives me a chance to share some of my family with you!

Four years ago today, my first daughter, Hannah, was born. After 14 hrs and a c-section, Hannah entered this world at 9 lbs, 9 oz. She was a big girl (and only 18 inches long!) Now unbelievably, she is a 4 year old.
