Returning customers, please enjoy....

Returning customers is the greatest compliment I receive here at work.

It is my personal belief as a small business owner, that I need to recognize the importance of this as I smile knowing that someone has enjoyed our baby albums so much that they want to order another.

custom albums!

a loyal (and fantastic!) customer called me the other day to ask if i have any albums for a same-sex couple who is expecting.

I DO.

and i am excited to print this custom album for these two moms-to-be!

if you would like to order an album, but you need it customized – just ask. anything is possible ;)

i l.o.v.e. paper!

i admit - i L.O.V.E. paper.

there is nothing better to me than dropping the kids off at school and discovering a fantastic stationery store.



i could spend the whole day visiting stationery stores. i had a great day discovering Paper Delights. they can be found here...www.paperdelights.com.



what could make a great discovery even greater? Fresh Outtakes baby albums can now be found at Paper Delights.



plus, my favorite company - le papier studio's new book!



take a look, and if you're local i promise that this fine stationery store will not disappoint!

pictures really are worth a thousand words

i love a great photo. i used to get so excited when i finally captured one of my kids looking well dressed and well mannered. however, what i've come to realize as i look back on my favorites - only one out of 10 photos is really a great photo if i'm looking at composition and lighting and all the things that i thought i should be concerned with.



my favorite photos as it turns out, are the ones that were taken while sneaking up on my kids or hastily chasing after them to capture the moment. sometimes they are the photos i take after tip-toe-ing into a dark room to document the "crash" i just heard from downstairs. these are definitely my FAVORITES. these are the ones that i have crammed into their baby albums and these are the ones that really tell the story of who they are.



i will share with you some of my favorites. our daughter has always been her own little person and has brought me from the brink of screaming to all out hysterical laughter with her antics. this is who she really IS and these are the photos i live for.
