Enough Mom!

Few photos from today...wanted to broaden my horizons to different rooms....:) There is a lot! I liked a lot of them





























He was ticked that I put him in the crib...I think he had enough of me by this point.

Yeah for copy cats

So I have a new computer, and I think dell is trying to keep up with Apple. (Which I would LOVE to have...) But since my work isnt compatible with Macs, I have to have a PC...but look at what Vista has! I know ppl hate vista, but I think so far they have done a pretty good job.

I made this movie today...look me about 15 min cuz I wanted to try it before i spent much time on it...it got a bit stretched...but pretty good for quickly doing it I thought.

Take a look...oh! And I can also add video! My next one will be better :)


It takes a while to load..some of you might not get to view it..sorry.

Harness the Energy

Finally a subject who cant run away! Minus a few tears it was wonderful that he just stayed put. It makes me miss those months with Cohen. I wake up in the morning and I feel exhausted thinking of how much energy I have to give that child. What if he stays this busy...scarier yet...what if ALL my kids are this busy. I have decided that I am gonna work and Aaron will be that stay at home dad. Sounds good!

Here's a few from the shoot. He was so adorable!

Senior photos in St Thomas

I was soooo excited to do my sister Heather's Sr. photos on spring break! I was hoping we could get some awesome shots! Here are a few of them.

Note- I would LOVE to take any ones photos out of country...so you can take me with if you want :) You pay for my vaca, I wont charge for my time...hehe!

Quick look at the trip

Well our vacation was very hot! As you can see in our tans, OK OK I'm red not tan...but you get the point. St Thomas was definitely an expensive island! Not the most beautiful island, so we went to St Johns....GORGEOUS! Highly Highly recommend seeing that island.

Here is a photo in our room, there was no queen/king bed...2 fulls that we had to push together. But it was nice, I had my own covers for once!

This photo was at Trunks Bay, St John. As you can see it is very pretty!

St Johns as well, we found this spot with old ruins, made for some great photos. Especially since I was taking Heathers Sr. pics there.

Not sure where on St Johns this is, but it too had a great view. Yeah! I have photos of me and Aaron again.

But I am glad to be back in a routine again.

My Baby Love

I am soooo excited to see my little man tomorrow night. Even if it means waking him just to say hi. A whole week without him! I felt like I wasn't even a mom, at all. I am definitely ready to be mom again. 26 more hours and counting. I love you Cohen, see you soon!

Some Beach, Somewhere.

I will be unavailable for the next week. For I will be here!

I am very excited about this vacation. Couple reasons...I hope it is easier to leave my child for warmer weather vs colder this time. Also, I thought the fact that he is getting like 3 more teeth at the moment was a good time to give him to Grandpa and Grandma for the week!

So St. Thomas, here I come!

Some of my favorite photos from this past session. I have been really discouraged with my lighting, I love natural lighting...but...it dosnt always want to come out when you need it! Really need some studios lights...But I think for the most part the photos turned out cute :)

Hello! Goodbye!

Today was a wonderful day! I have done some research on Canon cameras...and I made the final decision to buy my camera today (I have been borrowing my dad's camera!) And I think I made a wonderful choice. One click and I was in love. Serious love. Here is a photo I took of the new addition. This is the first camera I have ever owned that wasnt a point and shoot. Hard to believe I want to do photos for a living and didnt own my own. Hope this will bring much better helo to my upcoming sessions.

(yes I had to use the old camera one more time)

Continued Growth

Yes, It is 11:45pm and I am still up! Yes, I should be in bed. But, here I am! I was excited to add a new feature to the "business" I now can do client proofs online. It is called www.KaringaStudios.smugmug.com there you can view client proofs, my portfolio, and also family photos that I have added. It will make business much easier! (I hope)

I also am trying out a printing lab this week, we will see how that goes, but I have heard good things...I will let you know how it goes!

I am off to bed.

Cohen Turns 1 Years Old!

Where did that year go! I have a one year old. But it dosnt make sense...I didnt get older, how did my baby? I am gonna have kids driving and I am going to still feel like I am a teenager. *sigh* And wow, did parenting become challenging at one year. We have the biting, and the throwing the food over the tray, the sit still while I change you...and on and on. But, I am determined to win!

He is starting to say words...well, I would describe them as words, you may call them whatever language you want.
Bottle= "baaa"
Bath= "Ba"
Ben="Be"
Mom="mamamamama"
Dad="dadadada"
JayJay= "ja ja"

The day of the party...well that was interesting...the child has more then enough clothes to last all of 2007. The cake, agh yes, the cake. I feel as though I have done a great job feeding my child. He hates cake, he hates cookies. Ice cream was ok, but the cake...no. He would have nothing to do with it. Just look at that face of disgust!

What a honey! She had the most beautiful eyes! Big blue ones! So adorable. This is actually a friend from works lil 6 month old girl. Cohen wasnt the most gentle with her though...he is used to slappy Shelby, our dog. So he went up to her a wopped her on her face. I could have died! Not that he knows any different yet, but still. It feels like a refelction of your parenting! Thank heavens she didnt cry. Anyways, here are a few photos from the day...enjoy!
