I was so lucky to get to document another wonderful and very old friend. If anyone in this world has dirt on me, it is Anne. We have had so much fun through the years. Even though life is turbulent – Anne and I have seen each other through those times. And now I am lucky to be a part of her life when she has a child. August is amazing! I can tell already that he will have Anne and Joe's crazy sense of humor. The laughter, as it always is, was loud and free flowing.
His smiles were so contagious!
He makes this look not only easy, but tasty too!
This was my favorite from a series. Anne's hair is so thick and beautiful. She was nuzzling his noes and he would open his mouth just enough to let her hair brush against his mouth and he would giggle. It was a really sweet moment that I keep replaying in my head. It is wonderful to see Anne so happy.
One thing Anne and Joe really wanted was an image of August crying. Got it! LOVE this shot! Even crying, he is so stinking cute!



Wow Heather and Michael,
I really enjoyed browsing through your blog. These photos are perceptive and show such great mastery of technique. It's almost like there is no "I" or eye taking the photo. Rather, it is the loving gaze of nature's eye. I like it when a photo can show me a different way of seeing.
