tootles is two

i've realized something about myself as a photographer.  i've developed a kind of hot/cold relationship with my camera where i go, go, go with it when i'm shooting sessions, but during the week when i'm not working for clients, i tend to put it on a shelf and neglect it a bit.  so in an effort to convince my camera how much i love it, i'm going to start making a concerted effort to shoot more during my downtime.  and hey, a little extra practice can't hurt, right?

today's assignment was uber-simple for me, because my bloggy friends, today is isabel's 2nd birthday!  and i could shoot that little munchkin's photos all day if she'd let me.



i didn't quite get "all day", but i pulled out some of my photographer tricks and got a few minutes of uninterrupted shooting.  this girl's a mess!



but she's oh so sweet!



before long, the bigger two wanted in on the playtime, too, so we had an impromptu session with all of them right there in the foyer.



these are some of my favorites...




but it doesn't get any sweeter than this!!



have a great weekend!!!
