H familyhood

What an honor to photograph these fine folk, together now forever. Their personalities are brilliantly strong and distinct, merging into absolute awesomeness to create this fabulous family of five. Chandler Hovey is a special place to Mom and Dad (how many of us did actually get proposed to at the lighthouse, or even in it?!) and what a glorious evening we had in its majesty. There are, oh, just about 407 pictures coming their way on CD soon, but for now, here is a little peek into their fabulousity. Enjoy.











And a little surprise here, al final. Perhaps not to be recommended as I must admit I snapped the causeway shot, one handed, while following the fab five back onto the mainland. Maybe it's my fondness for wranglers bursting with love or my affinity with that island road that is our first stop each and every morning, but I love this shot of the H family, driving into the sunset, into the beauty of togetherness as they all so deserve.

On Eagles' Wings

For years I've tried to deny it, but maybe everyone who goes to BC really is superhumanly awesome. My hubby, of course, tops the list, but these two also rank pretty high, as far as I can see. Our sunset session was one of the happiest, easiest, most enjoyable yet. Little boy CC is CCC: crazy, crazy cute. What a jolly soul. And his parents were just a joy to meet, greet and capture at this most happy, beautiful time in their lives. And so, for Chris O'Donnell, Ed McMahon, old favorite students of mine, Mr. and Mrs. C, generations of Dosch's and my sincerely dear better half, Heightsonians, I take my hat off to you. Enjoy these...

C Extended Fam

“Whoever teaches his son teaches not alone his son but also his son's son, and so on to the end of generations.”
Hebrew Proverb

What a great group! So much energy, such super personalities. It was a joy to spend a windy, blue-skied hour with the extended family this past weekend and get to know each of them just a bit. Hats off to these thoughtful kids and grandkids for making photographic memories for their elders. It's the holidays and there'll be other shoots coming just like this, and I know they'll make some grandparents very, very happy. There's no timeless, happy gift like a picture of those you love...

A brisk morning, for sure, at Chandler Hovey Park. But no wind or chill could wipe the smiles off of these lovely four. Loving, dear family.

Family B

“For every beauty there is an eye somewhere to see it. For every truth there is an ear somewhere to hear it. For every love there is a heart somewhere to receive it.”
-Ivan Panin

What a serene, loving and beautiful three. I felt refreshed just to spend a portion of a spectacular late day with them. Oh, the waves, the sea spray, the sunset...all just stunning. But nothing compared to the peaceful beauty of this young family. And if it is possible that in a short crossing of our paths on some November eve they could have held time still and become unforgettable....they did.

On the green they watched their son
Playing till too dark to see,
As their fathers watched them once,
As my father once watched me.
~Edmund Blunden

It's a lucky little boy who has two big, big fans in his parents. These three were such fun to photograph. The adventurous little one had tons of fun ideas for good shots and what an afternoon it was to be surrounded by the water on three sides.

L Boys

Sometimes being a brother is even better than being a superhero. ~Marc Brown

The quote's not bad considering they were four brilliant brothers and yes, indeed, it was Halloween! Amazing. Such well-behaved, but still delightfully crazy boys. What a life they will have together and how wonderful to be a part of capturing this moment in time for them as their parents watch them growing up before their eyes.

It was the coldest, windiest shoot yet, but the brothers prevailed. I was amazed to see the eldest take the lead here and so I included a few extra pics of him in the sneak peek. Terrific boys on a windy, windy day. Well done.



Super S Fam... Loving getting to know these fab five...
