    RAK-Sibling Love

    Tuesday, February 21st, 2012

    “I know the perfect candidate(s) for your RAK #3. I am honored to present the daughters of my friend Michelle, a dear friend of mine, as potential candidates for your sibling love RAK session. Brittany graduates this spring and is planning on entering into the Aultman Hospital Nursing Program. She is an awesome big sis to Seirra. Seirra is a blessing and a joy to all who meet her. She is a multi-handicapped, miracle child who has underwent two brain surgeries in her life already. I know from experience being a big sister is quite the job but I can not imagine the level of love, patience, and unselfishness that Brittany has demonstrated in her family.

    In truth, this RAK would be a blessing to their mother Michelle, who I know amidst the busyness and stress that comes with being a mom to 2 teenage girls and running back and forth to Cleveland Clinic hospital for Seirra’s numerous and ongoing health conditions, has lost all track of things like scheduling photo sessions to capture the girls as they grow. You could not choose a more deserving person to bestow your RAK session to. Michelle, with everything she has going on in her life, is the most generous person I know-she gives of her time, love, and even money freely to anyone in need. I am fairly certain she does about 3 RAK’s daily. Friend, family, or stranger-if you need a prayer, a shoulder, a late night ear to listen, food, a ride, a place to sleep, a hug, or you can’t pay a bill-she is there, no questions asked….and if she can’t help you she will find someone who will.” -Angie

    Cool Under Pressure

    Wednesday, February 8th, 2012

    The first image of baby Raymond is one of the most memorable images I have shot in a while. He was so cooperative for this shot despite some big sibling (of the canine variety) that ensued. I am guessing he is destined to be the guy that the coach gives the ball to when the game is on the line. Welcome to the world, handsome Raymond.

    Mama’s Little Man

    Monday, October 24th, 2011

    Sessions that require little direction make my job easy. Lindsey and her little man, Will, have a bond that is palpable. It is obvious that they spend lots of time playing together. The sweetness that I witnessed from Will made my heart smile.

    Summer Siblings

    Tuesday, September 20th, 2011

    The hazy light of the last days of summer provide excellent photographic opportunities. Elli and Xavier loved chasing butterflies and each other through the fields.

    This first image is my favorite as it reinforces the notion that beauty does not always come with a toothy grin.

    One Year: One Blue. One Pink.

    Tuesday, August 2nd, 2011

    Just about a year ago, Miryn and Kyle welcomed Kenton to their family. This year, Kenton became a big brother to baby Mallory. In between the whirlwind of diapers changes and bottles this little family is finding their groove with their sweet little ones. Congratulations!

    Chunka Monk-a

    Wednesday, July 20th, 2011

    Baby Will is a delightful little man that his Mom and sister, Clare, affectionately refer to as a “Chunka Monk-a.” (Will…you can blame Ben and Jerry for the nickname.) Squeezable would best describe his thighs. However, his bright eyes and animated expressions are what made this session so fun.

    This last image is a favorite of mine. Will’s posture (he has moved beyond the weeble stage) and profile will change rapidly in the coming months…these are the types of moments that we tend to forget if not photographed.

    Bubblicious

    Wednesday, June 29th, 2011

    A year has passed and Miss Ruby is officially a year old. Words cannot compete with the cuteness that came as a result of Daddy blowing bubbles.
