a penny for your thoughts little man?
katherine jumped in the middle of the path, made this face 3 times, and then ran off. kids are so funny like that.
my favorite. (see last photo in post)
baby wearing family.
okay, perhaps this one is my favorite. (hmmm- looks pretty cozy… no Motrin needed here.

Houston, TX - Family Session
Finally- a session and it wasn’t sweltering hot! We had a great time shooting in the awesome weather. It’s not the first time I’ve had the pleasure of taking photos of the gorgeous Alma.
I originally met Alma, Mike, and Katherine while I was held a series of photos sessions for the Houston Baby Wearers last fall. Who knew from those sessions, they would be used all over the world to promote the benefits of baby wearing? I for one certainly did not! So I was thrilled when the HBW (Houston Baby Wearers) as well as the BWI (Baby Wearing International) asked if they could use my images for their website and promotional pieces. Alma, mom to Katherine and Calvin, is deeply involved with both organizations- she is one of the founders for the HBW and is the Treasurer for the IBW.
It is a total coincidence that I would be posting these images during International Baby Wearing Week as well as the same week Motrin was asked to pull an advertisement that rocked the baby wearing world as it falsely represented baby wearing. (Thankfully they did.)
Aside from that, Alma and I were both super excited when we were contacted for permission to use an image that I took of she and Katherine last year for the cover photo for Parenthood Magazine-Malaysia 2009. How COOL is that? What’s cooler to me is that last year Alma had this image enlarged so I already know how much it means to her.
here are the cover girls 1 year ago:
i love that kathy did this again. she’s tooooo adorable.

Alma, you have a gorgeous family. Way to go, mama.

Yay for the babywearing mommy AND daddy! I love it! Count me as another one who is so glad that Motrin pulled that ridiculous ad!
Gorgeous work and darling subjects!

Oh - I had seen mention of something related to Motrin on Twitter while I was out of town, but I had no idea what they were talking about. That video just made me angry. UGH. Glad to see it has been pulled.
These photographs are so beautiful! What an awesome job you did! Fabulous!
