Oh my goodness. How precious is Gabriella?! She is the prettiest baby maybe ever. She is 10 days old in these pictures. What a sweet time to capture and hold near to your heart forever. These days pass by quickly but turn into memories we hold dear to our hearts. Congrats to you, Alan and Crystal! She is perfect.

I hope I have the honor of seeing Gabriella grow through the years.

Much love,

 Oh sweet baby Mani. Have I mentioned newborns?! And right now as my daughter is now 3 1/2 I really love them espeically when they are other peoples’ babies. Ha! I want another child but man those sleepless nights for months and years. Oh but wait. Isn’t he so so cute? And he smells so yummy, too. It’s like a magnet for me. I just want to hold and squeeze them all! Lucky for me I have two newborn shoots coming up in the next week and a half. Yeah! You can see Mani in his beautiful Momma’s belly here.

Such a proud Daddy.

Oh, that little smirk! I could eat him up.

Oh, please. No pictures now. Nice try cute little man.

 Love.

Kisses from your furry brother.

Hello, Mani.

Love this everyday moment.

And this everyday moment is so angelic.

I love the new parent smiles here.

Daddy has magical sleepy baby powers.

Love.

All those Moms out there. Remember the itty bitty stage where they just laid on your chest all day long and you never wanted to move?! yes, this is that moment forever captured. Love love love.

Much love,

Robin

It’s been about a year and a half since I last photographed these beautiful families. We have so much fun every time and I love seeing the children grow.

These two…these two…so much fun!

Gah…Morgan…there are no words.

Meet my sister, Carina and her family. They live in Perth, Australia.

My sister, Carina, lives in Perth, Australia. I would move there if I wasn’t such a chicken to leave my friends and family. It is a beautiful place live. J and I say we’d move there a lot. But the truth is we have some family who would be very upset if we moved their only Grandchild to the other side of the World!

Anyway, my sister was visiting the states for some time in July and asked that I take a few pictures. This was the FIRST time I have taken pictures of them.

You see the first picture above? Yes, that started it all. Then, this happened.

And this. RJ true personality.

I was a little nervous…okay, fine. A LOT nervous because well you see Luke is quite the artist with his camera. He has held his OWN exhibitions and won numerous awards for his photography.

Good thing he likes the artsy stuff. Sun flare coming at ya.

Don’t’ the kids look thrilled?!

My favorite. The Grandpa monster was doing disgusting things above my head and poor RJ was hiding.

Apparently, there’s  another monster! Watch out!

As requested.

So who’s having more fun?

It was hot and sticky.  But we had to get a couple of just Carina and Luke. Who knows what evil thing Carina did to evoke this laugh from Luke but it’s awesome.

See this image below? Now, scroll down.

As soon as I saw this photo while editing, I instantly thought about the one below from about 15 years ago. They look the same. Mind the weird scanned color.

 Love and miss you tremendously!  See you in 2015 if not sooner!
