gone fishing|film

Going through some rolls of film I got back from summer, and it’s really making me wish it were still warm outside! This summer when we were in northern Michigan at All Seasons Resort, Charlie learned how to fish, sort of. He got the hugest kick out of it and spent a lot of time…

puddle jumpers|la grange park child photographer

In late November, just before the first snowfall, there was a monsoon of a rainstorm. I posted one of the photos from this storm for my “one” blog circle image for November, where I explain what was going on. Here are a few more from those ten minutes of fun stomping around in the puddles.

party boy|la grange child photography

So this is my youngest. He will definitely be the guy with the lampshade on his head at parties later on in life. He can find fun anywhere, even on a dry-docked diving stand covered in bird poop.

the ponies in palm springs

For fun, I thought I’d post a few from my trip out to Florida to visit some of my favorite people on earth, Andrea, Warwick, and their two little girls. Andrea set up a fun excursion for us to Palm Springs for a polo match and I loved every minute of it. Champagne, ponies, stomping…
