Keerthana Newborn

A few  months ago, I had the opportunity to meet a new family, the Manchikantis, and had the privilege of taking pictures of them with their brand new baby, Keerthana.  I'm always game for a newborn shoot!











I couldn't believe this baby was smiling so much!














3 generations!



Parents and maternal grandparents.



My signature bucket, of course!






Keerthana did so great with the bucket, she got two poses with it!



















My friend Cynthia made this awesome tutu!

Thank you so much, Arjun and Swerta, for letting me take your pictures!  You have a very sweet family!

Pumpkin Patch 2011

I'm in a group of stay-at-home mommies, and this year we decided to make one of our meetings at the local pumpkin patch.  I figured that, since we would be there anyway, we might as well make it a photo shoot day!  The mommies graciously agreed, so we had a fall picture party of sorts!  It was such a fun shoot - I just floated around while the kids played in the pumpkins and took pictures of whoever was looking most photogenic at the moment.  I know most people are out of "Fall mode" and into "Christmas mode" by now, but I figured I'd go ahead and share these with the hopes of being considered fashionably late.  :-)  So, without further ado, I present the Pumpkin Patch, 2011.

Thanks, ladies, for letting me capture pics of your little ones!
