Quality and time

Quality and time can be confusing. I need to make those two words come together to become an action this summer. My oldest is going to be a senior and my youngest 2 will be in first grade. So I will give them what all kids really want, quality time. I have nothing more to offer and yet that is the most valuable thing to them. So I promise to give them my all. I will be working a little less this summer due to the quality of life I need to offer and the time my oldest son needs before he evolves into a man of the world. I will keep you posted on my summer schedule this week. I need this to heal my overworked body and they need it to have a solid relationship with their mother. So sorry world, all my babies need me for a moment. You will still get the best of me out, you'll just get a little less of me! Happy day!

Ps give lots of xoxo's to your babies. (my 17 yr old still let's me!) even though it is not cool to them, it really is fabulous to them!!

just wanted to share while I had a minute on some of the baby love I have been getting the last few weeks. I think everyone around here is having babies. I have been getting emails, messages and texts non-stop for babies I need to photograph. so if you are pregnant, don't bring that water over here. not ready for that yet. happy day!

just thought I would post this, I was looking at this dandelion and realized it looked like an image of a newborn baby I just took! funny how things resemble one another. wow, mother nature's product! how inspiring! happy day. dani xo

happy birthday, baby!

a little love from happy to excited to very mad! how can you be all things in 20 mins? well, if you are a baby, you would know. over-stimulation is the key to anything around a baby. thought I would share one of my favorite clients children. I adore this family and they have come to me for years now, I just am so thankful I have been allowed to document them grow. happy day! xo-dani
