Baby Riley Teaser

The last few days have been a whirl wind and its not over yet! Yesterday I traveled up to New Haven CT to talk with the CT Pictage users about maternity photography. It was my very first speaking engagement and I was super nervous. Despite getting rained out of our original beach shoot everyone still gathered at Steve Depino's for dinner and to listen to me speak and give a small demo. The wonderful Missy was the belly model and I will have a few photos to share in a couple weeks. Everyone was great and from the feedback I think I was able to inspire a few people and give them some new ideas.

I grabbed this from Erik Maziarz's blog

I headed back home this morning just in time to head back out to meet up with the Haring's who won my Mothers day contest. Baby Riley is way too cute and so fun. I don't have time before we leave in the morning for Vermont to do a slide show but I wanted to leave you with a few teasers. I had such a great time this afternoon and the weather was perfect!

We played a lot! And attempted to catch butterflies.

bubble time

Riley does a very good job of blowing bubble as well as catching them.

Such a sweet girl

And what afternoon would not be complete with out playing in the sandbox?

There are many more where these came from including some really fun family portraits. Check back next week sometime for more and a slideshow.

I will be out of town until Wednesday. Chris and Jess are getting married this Saturday in Bennington Vermont and we are taking a couple of extra days there to relax.
