turned into this huge panel for her first birthday party:

(cake by famous berliosca!)

These StoryBoard/Collage designs…

… turned into unique pieces of art:

Your portraits are art pieces and should be displayed with style.

That’s why I always help my clients visualize their favorite images in their homes…

… so they can proudly display their art!

{our signature fine art Canvases come ready to hang and are designed to be displayed without a frame}

I always get the question “so how big should I go with my images?” Bigger is always better — it makes more of an impact.

For smaller prints, I usually suggest a gallery display, a grouping of images (for instance, four 16×20 or eight  8×10 art prints grouped together).

16×20 sounds big, huh? Not until you see it close to a 30×40, like the one hanging on the wall bellow:

And just in time for Father’s Day:

Give dad the perfect gift–the gift of memories. Canvases and StoryBoards make memorable gifts.

If you were wondering why everything seems so quiet around here, well… I have great news: my first niece was born a couple days ago! And I had the most amazing experience documenting her grand entrance to the world! My sister chose not to document the whole labor (well and how could I do that if I was also her doula?) but as soon as baby girl came out, screaming from the top of her lungs, I was there capturing every single movement of hers! Such a precious, perfect little thing she is!

It was the most incredible experience ever. And such a coincidence that she was assigned to the very same room where I had my twins a few years ago… and the staff at the hospital… just amazing… I mean, the most wonderful nurses ever! Even Roman, the *fantastic* nurse who helped me all the way when I had my twins, she was there to help my sister with breastfeeding and such. Happy coincidences.

All around one of the most beautiful moments in my life. And I will never forget it.

Now for some images to illustrate this grand event, the miracle of life.

proud daddy cutting the umbilical cord…

Isn’t she perfect? Actually, that’s the very meaning of her name. Perfect.

She was wide awake even hours after the birth, doing all kinds of cute expressions that I, of course, had to capture
My brave sister (no epidural, folks!) and my awesome brother-in-law (we were a team supporting her through the loooong labor, and he was amazing) were able to sleep for awhile (after the almost 40 hours labor) so I had my precious niece all for myself for a few hours! If you know me, I *adore* newborns, love them, so this was extra special for me — I was in heaven. Pure heaven.

I was even able to capture her first bath (at the hospital)!

My sister was so into it that she didn’t even noticed I was photographing her bathing her darling daughter!
and here she is, all fresh and smelling oh so good (I adore their smell, newborns smell soooo good!) and bundled up by daddy. He did a great job, didn’t he?

I’ll be doing her “official” newborn session soon so expect a lot more images of her on the blog!

Do you have any doubt this gorgeous girl is going to be the most photographed kid in the whole wide world?

I would like to take the opportunity to thank my wonderful, supportive clients for rescheduling their sessions during my sister’s labor/delivery and for their patience and understanding on the delay of putting up their galleries, and for their warm wishes. Thank You, from the bottom of my heart.
And also and foremost my husband and kids, for being always so supportive – I love you!

Welcome to this wonderful world, baby girl! We love you so very much!

Love,

I have one Mom & Me spot that just opened up in May as my mini session client switched for a family session instead.

If you are interested, please contact me for details and to reserve your space — these mini sessions booked up very quickly so please book now to avoid disappointment. Session will be scheduled on a first come, first serve basis.

and since no post is complete without photos… some momma love!

Happy Earth Day!
