Lacie’s Newborn Sesh

09.05.09

Welcome to the the world, little Lacie. Our smallest little Oreo cookie.

Little Lacie’s mom has a sweet beautiful singing voice and she devotes her gift as the worship leader for the women’s ministry at our church. Lacie’s dad is a talented musician…drums…guitar…you name it. Both surf and love the beach so I can already imagine little Lacie growing up with a guitar and a surfboard. Maybe she’ll get into trucks like her big brother, Logi.

My assistant/friend, Joy, was missing for this Saturday morning session. That girl has a waaaay busier social schedule than I do. So it was just me and the whole package of Oreos. Lacie was having breakfast when I arrived, which I loved because it gave me to time to scope out the room she’s sharing with her big bro. I totally rearranged that room by the time Kacie brought her newborn girl upstairs. I mean, I somehow hauled furniture around…don’t worry, I put it all back. But her room was the perfect setting for her first photo session with it’s newly painted sea blue walls complete with her name over her…well, where crib is bound to be once they find the screws. For a few of the shots, we moved her to mommy and daddy’s room where I just loved the bright red wall and striking black and white pillows.

I usually like to abbreviate baby names to protect their privacy but I figured this picture would kind of give it away…

(Logi held her for 20 seconds until she let out a cry and then he said “I’m done.”

I guess he doesn’t mind the crying that much…

John-Whitni-Baby G Family Session

09.04.09

My friend John is being deployed shortly. His intial departure was last Monday and has slowly been postponed day by day…with the last departure date given set for tomorrow. With a five month-old and a beautiful, sweet wife, Whitni, to anchor him to his new home here in the islands, we pushed really hard to squeeze some time in for them to take some pictures. Pictures to keep with them in these next months apart. We met late one afternoon on Waimanalo beach…the wind was just roaring. Baby G was a little stunned by the wind, he stared it in the face until his eyes gave in and he had to duck behind his daddy’s broad shoulders. Whitni, another budding photog, had her camera out and was snapping away at the gorgeous backdrop of the Koolau mountains. With babies, you really just have to go with the flow. We took as many pictures on the sand until the wind got to be too much for baby. So we moved in towards the mountains. Then he was having a bit of teething fits so we took as many breaks as he needed for bottle time and some “chew on daddy’s finger” time that he needed. I actually like it more…I like to fade in the background until they forget I’m there and then I snap away and capture their “real” family moments.

I love this adorable family. My hubby and I are blown away by the dedication and day-to-day commitment of military men and women.
