Family

I love Jennifer and Mark.  I loved them years ago when I met them for their engagement session at Longwood Gardens and again at their Atrium at the Curtis Center wedding soon after.  They live in London (thanks a lot, Mark!) and have a little man that I’ve been dying to see.  Meet 14 month old, Magnus!

It finally, finally happened about a month ago when they came back to the states and this sweet, toddling, little peanut came by for a session with Jennifer’s parents who thankfully live over here.

Jenifer and Mark joked that this is their city boy’s first interaction with grass.

Magnus is new to the walking game but was jetting around like crazy.

Also notable was the constant use of neckerchiefs for the constant stream of drool.  The struggle is real.  They have so many of these they could put him in a new one with every outfit.

Favorites include doorknobs, lightswitches, thumbs, cuddling, and running.  I’m so impressed with Mark and Jennifer’s stamina.

If you were to open up a baby’s head — and I am not for a moment suggesting that you should — you would find nothing but an enormous drool gland. ~Dave Barry

Scotland Visit
I really hate leaving home base for too long. I get back and feel like the sky is falling. I think the dust is finally settling and I can get back into the groove again. I wanted to share some of my pictures from my trip to Scotland a few weeks ago. My grandmother is not doing very well so it was a last minute thing to get across the pond. If I ever see another airport again, it will be too soon. Part of my adventure was borderline comical. I flew from San Francisco to Los Angeles for a nine hour layover. The flight was at 7am and I had a shuttle pick me up at 5am. The shuttle driver wasn't having a great morning – he picked me up late ...

Main Line Newborn Photographer | Bryn Mawr Home | Nora
Little baby Nora made her parents work for her arrival.  There is something called a Nurse’s Curse and Deirdre got it. I’m not going to get graphic but Nora was late and then caused one hell of a ruckus to get out.  This included running late, water breaking to start the stopwatch, vacuum, forceps, retained placenta, and a couple units of blood for Deirdre.  9+ pound Nora was larger than expected. Have I mentioned that Deirdre is a labor and delivery nurse?  That just seems unfair.  But then there's this face! But here she is with soft, fuzzy hair that, from the back, makes her look a bit like Sonic the Hedgehog. ...
