wee baby rory

My dear friend Karen just had her second baby girl, and I was delighted when I finally got to meet her!!! She made her appearance on Christmas Eve at home (planned), but about two minutes before the midwives arrived! Well done Karen & Todd, way to go on the DIY!

Without further ado....here she is at the ripe old age of 5 days old -



Oh the humanity!!!



with daddy, the baby whisperer...




angel baby....


I don't know how she does it, but Karen just looks absolutely beautiful after having her babies. So happy and literally glowing, even prettier than on her wedding day!


Hello! I'm Rory. You will now love me to bits.

Giving is Awesome portrait winner(s)

Happy New Year Everyone!!!
I hope that everyone has enjoyed this holiday season! We had a bit of a rough start here with most of the family being sick, but now everyone is finally feeling better, and we've had a chance to see most of our family and friends.

I want to thank everyone who took the time to write in with nominations for my Giving is Awesome portrait donation. There were so many stories of people who are just doing everything in their power to give all they can to their families, communities, and children.

It was very difficult to decide, but the winner of the $1000 worth of portrait services is a family with three children - two of which have both Autism and Mitochondrial disease. Their parents sound amazing, and I can't wait to meet this family.

For all of the other nominees, I am going to pick one day in the spring, and invite each family to come for their own complimentary mini-session, where they will receive three custom prints and all of the files high-resolution on disc so that they can make their own prints as needed. Each person who nominated the family will receive a $100 credit on a future portrait session.

Thanks again to everyone who wrote in for this event, and I look forward to meeting all your nominees!!

Cheers!
Nancy
