Favorites.  Such a sensitive subject with me...  Because every time I edit any wedding or session, THAT particular one feels like my favorite.  I mean you shoot a wedding for 6 or 8 hours and they all start to feel like family.  Your family... only extended.  Or you spend a couple hours with a little one at birth, then 6 months then a year, then at every birthday...  you've watched them grow.  They're like family.  They ALL become my favorites. But I've just come to the realization (it only took me 8 years so maybe I'm a little slow hahaa)...  I think 6 months (ish) to 2 years are probably my favorites.  And that's only if someone were to FORCE me to choose.  I think it's the interaction with them... the smiles.  The silliness on my part.  I mean it's ok to be silly with babies!  {And yes, sometimes that silliness spills over into my weddings.}  How could you NOT love this sweet girl?!  She has a big personality already and she just turned one! :)

I've found a fabulous new frame vendor!!  I'd heard of The Organic Bloom before but never took the time to order.  I finally did and boy am I glad!!!  I had envisioned a grouping above my bed with the painting from my friend, Miki McCurdy (who also took the pics of me & Shane).  I ordered the 12x12 silk prints and then chose the frames for them... still thinking that they'd go on each side of my painting and I'd build on that... add a collection of frames, a mirror, quotes... just a mismatch of things that were "us".  Well, I got my frames in last week and they were MASSIVE!  There was no room for any collection of all things me and Shane.  :)  The frames that hold my 12x12 prints are more than 27 inches wide (each)!!The ones I ordered are double stacked.  The Organic Bloom offers single, double stack, twin double stack and multi-opening frames just to name a few!  Email me if you'd like a price on a certain frame!~kim

Clients always ask what they should wear and while I prefer lighter, subtle colors for beach sessions, I LOVE the more funky patterns and fabrics for children.  You probably will never hear me tell you to wear white shirts and khakis because that's just not my personal favorite. When it comes to photos, I say wear what you LOVE!  You know, the outfit that you have for your child that you *always* grab when it's clean and you're headed out to eat or shop?!  That one...  I say wear that!  :)  And bring some extras too!I've recently ordered Sadie her first Matilda Jane and I am SO absolutely in love!!  I love the vintage style and the layers.  Oh and the fabulous mix of fabrics.How FUN are these clothes?!  ...a lot like our Sadie-bug. :)
