RAK-Sibling Love

admin — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 02:16:34 +0000

“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

Baby Laura

admin — Thu, 22 Sep 2011 02:45:06 +0000

Often times, parents come to me with an idea for an image that they would like to duplicate. Having not seen the original, I am going to take a guess that this first image will far exceed the vision for a sibling image. Welcome to baby Laura!

You Make Me Happy

admin — Thu, 22 Sep 2011 02:33:09 +0000

Even though the skies were grey, sunshine came in the form of smiles from Judah and Adam. These little guys kept me entertained while splashing in puddles and playing games and singing…they were my sunshine on a cloudy day!

Bright Eyed and Bushy Tailed

admin — Wed, 21 Sep 2011 02:25:27 +0000

Silliness and palpable affection were the name of the game on this overcast morning. I adore the expressions (and the toes!!!) of every member of this adorable family in this first image.

Beautiful Baby Ava

Newborn baby Ava is such a sweet little peanut and is as soft as she looks. She really wanted to spend the afternoon cuddled up with Mom but finally gave in the sleepies to give us some great shots. Thanks to Kelly and Joe for your patience…good things came as a result!

Happy Birthday James

In honor of James’ first birthday we spent the morning playing and taking photos. He was eager to show off his walking and door opening and running and window patting skills (he wore me out!) While it’s unconventional, I would have a giant canvas of this image of James’ backside while running in my house. I love everything about this image including the crazy hairs, the diaper position, James’ franken-walk, the brightly colored balls…Happy Birthday James!!!

Chunka Monk-a

admin — Wed, 20 Jul 2011 14:27:35 +0000

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.

Introducing Dustin Jr.

admin — Thu, 30 Jun 2011 14:50:54 +0000

Dustin Jr. will be the best dressed/accessorized baby in Ohio due to the fact that his Mom, Ashley, is the general manger of Tadpoles & Tiddlers (super cute baby store in Bath, OH.) His sweet personality shined through while he was cuddling with each of his parents. I look forward to watching this little man grow up!

Even the Dog Smiled

The tornado sirens couldn’t keep us from sneaking in this session. We had beautiful light and beautiful smiles before the rains came. Sam claims to be the jokester in this family but Anna is giving him a run for his money. I really enjoyed laughing with this beautiful family!
