Okay, this is a long post, but I couldn't help myself as there were too many adorable photos of this little fashionista.  Her mom's pearls entertained her most of the shoot, which doesn't surprise me as her mom loves creating beautiful jewelry, but her dad might be in for a bit of trouble as I see her wanting an extensive jewelry collection very soon:).

What girl doesn't love fabulous accessories?!

We arrived in Denver a few days ago and are starting to get settled into our new life here.  We already LOVE it and can't wait to start exploring everything.  To be honest, the reality of actually packing and unpacking is not very fun...it actually really really sucks.  But, we have such great intentions for our future here and traveling more for photo shoots that we weren't too bothered by all the boxes and actually like the idea of streamlining everything in our lives.  (Blah blah blah...sorry...I had to put something in there about how packing/unpacking is so time consuming & not really all that fun especially with kids who want your attention every second).  The girls were both excited and a little confused when we started moving all their toys and so I had to take couple photos of us playing a little hide-n-seek as the last few pieces of furniture were packed up and we left our home in Durango.

The good thing is that I am now out of move mode and back into work mode, so here come some blog posts & photo shoots again...I am making a promise to myself to try and post on the blog daily, so come and say hi to me on here whenever you can! I would really love to hear from the people who stop by here.

I cannot wait to see what is in store for us here and I look forward to meeting new amazing clients and friends. I do LOVE that part of moving!

Lots of love...xoxo~ heidi

I love that I get to watch my clients grow up.  I have had the privilege of photographing little ~m~ for over the past year and love love love seeing how much she is learning and how her personality is evolving.  She is such a sweetheart. These are some of my favorite images from her mini-session.

Enjoy.

We may just have a little fashionista or maybe just a perfectionist on our hands.
I apparently did not have enough lip gloss on, so my little Jolie fixed that for me.

This oh-so-sweet one month old was just a joy to photograph.
Her adorable big brother made the session very entertaining too. 
While mom, an amazing yoga instructor, rocked his sister to sleep, he created a masterpiece: a portrait of me taking photos. 
I was amazed at his talent and all the other drawings he had on display at home. 
The one below was just "in progress" as the final one had even more thoughtful details...(don't you just love the yellow hair and Nikon logo:))...
I enjoyed this family immensely...
And I can't wait to show them the full gallery.
