A and J - March 2010

As I was attempting to organize some photos on my hard drives, I realized that I never blogged about this session!  Shame on me!  Especially considering it was done almost 8 months ago!  Geeeez I am dropping the ball.  But in my defense, this session was when I was still working a full-time job in addition to full-time photography, and full-time Mom duties.  Not sure how that all mathematically adds up to fit in a day, but that should explain how I completely bypassed this session.

So anyways...I have loved being able to watch this family grow....my first session with them was when little "J" was a wee baby, only a few weeks old I believe...which I just realized the pics don't even load properly anymore on my blog...it was that long ago that I didn't know what I was doing when I uploaded them I think...so here is one of the pics from that first session:

 

Since then, I did another session with them when "J" was around 6 months I believe...here's a few of those pics: http://averyjamesphotography.blogspot.com/2009/05/growing-family.html

Then another one when "J" was about a year old: http://averyjamesphotography.blogspot.com/2009/11/and-j-november-2009.html

And then the below session which would make "J" about a year and a half I believe...and of course his big sister "A" has grown as well, but the changes are always so much more obvious in a child's first couple of years.

Unfortunately this fabulous family moved away from California to another state completely ::tear:: but thankfully they still have some ties to the So Cal area and will be back in December...and yes, we'll be doing another session while they're here!

So although it's 8 months late, here are some pics from the most recent session of "A" and "J"! :)

A and J - March 2010

Oh how I love this field of flowers...yes, I've taken pictures there just about 3 days in a row now...but I can't help it!  1) It's BEAUTIFUL, and 2) the flowers will die...and it will be a big, brown, empty field eventually...and I don't know when that day will happen, so I'm going to take full advantage of it now!!  Besides, this family is the ones that told me the flowers were in bloom in the first place...so I owe these beautiful scenic photos all to them. :)

Below is a little sneak peek at the session...and I have to say, this photo below of the two of them together might be one of my all-time favorite sibling photos.  It's hard to get siblings to interract naturally with each other....but this one turned out well. :)

Also - if you're reading this and don't mind....could you tell me how the color in these images look on your monitor??  I'm having issues as I'm looking at the same images in 4 different programs...1 of them looks ridiculously over saturated (really red skin basically), 1 looks really under-saturated, and the other 2 look fine, including the ones I'm looking at on this blog....so I'm curious as to how you all see it as well....your comments are appreciated! :)

A and J (continued)

How cute are these kids??? And those eyes on the little boy of the family...reminds me of a Precious Moments illustration (which I absolutely LOOOOVE).
Here are some more of my favorites from this family's photo session. Enjoy! :)
