We went away for a few days last week and boarded our cat.  Was he mad at us!  I took this shot whilst he was sulking in a corner after he got back.  It’s the feline version of a mean and moody portrait.  Despite the expression he really is a a rather lovable rogue. Well I think so although my husband begs to differ. His name is Montgomery, Monty for short. He’s named after a famous British World War II general.

Spring is here and as a last goodbye to this winter past I am showing my favorite personal winter portrait. It was taken in Vermont in December 2009. My daughter got up at daybreak to watch the first snow of the season falling. I woke up to find her sitting quietly in the corner of the hotel room with the drapes open just watching the flakes falling. There’s always something wonderful about the first snowfall each year whatever age you are. The portrait was taken using the available natural light.

 One of my favorite ages for photographing babies is the first year months when they give great eye contact and still have a lot of that baby charm. The perfect portrait milestones are 3-4 months, 6 months and 12 months.  To help parents not to miss capturing this unique and fleeting time in a child’s life we are extending free baby portrait sessions* at the studio for the month of April. The offer applies to babies up to 12 months for weekday sessions. Please contact the studio for additional information or to reserve a slot. Limited availability and the slots will go so hurry!
