The other day I had the honor of photographing a welcome new addition to this world.  Isabella is a beautiful little girl.  Hope you enjoy the images.

I love the juxtaposition of such a little girl on her father's arm.

We were lucky to get some shots with her eyes open.

Isabella is blessed with a wonderful mother and father.

Is there anything cuter?!?

I have been shooting lately, I am just having a hard time finding the time to post my entries.  I am going to (hopefully) post some images I’ve shot in the last few weeks over the next few days.  Life has certainly been an adventure the last few weeks!

Got lucky a week or so ago and the whole family went for a walk in the beautiful morning fog.

There was dew covering all the fallen leaves.

I think Pablo loves walks even more than me!

There is nothing quite like the changing of the seasons.

Vincent was out of work early one day this week so we decided to take advantage of it and head out to Rose Lake for a hike.  I think it has been almost two years since we have been out there which is very sad because we used to go out there almost every day.  It was beautiful with the changing leaves and fresh air.

Pablo and I headed to my parents house for a few days last week.   It had been far too long since we’ve been home and we thought it would be nice to give Vincent a few nights of solid sleep.  We had a great time visiting with eachother and playing with the dogs.  My parents have Patches and my sister Lori has three dogs, Surf, Ursula and Tonka.  

My parents' dog Patches.

Pablo loved Patches and she was incredibly patient.

Lori's little guy.....Tonka.

Pablo attended his first Halloween Party at his great-grandmother’s place….dressed as none other than Pablo the Penguin from the Backyardigans.  He’ll definitely go to therapy for this  The second set of photos is from my sister Jill’s home.  The kids were picking pears.  It was a beautiful fall day.

Grandma and Pablo.

I have never heard great-grandma laugh so hard as when she spent time with Pablo on Saturday. There is something so beautiful about the young and old together.

This is my sister Jill's youngest son. We had a great time picking pears and hanging out.

It was a beautiful day to be taking pictures and spending time with family.

Watching Jill's children makes me want to have more!

The first image took a first place in Feature for Daily Class B.  The second image took a second place in Sports Picture.

Mitch Zajac is the Athlete of the Year. Zajac helped his wrestling team to an undefeated season and it's first state title since 1997.

Today I photographed Nolan, Pablo’s cosmically linked brother at his home.  We had an amazing time.  I haven’t laughed that hard in a long time.  There are a few with Pablo, too.  Enjoy!
