Mama in the woods

My dear old friends Kara and Henry are having a baby in August. I got to spend a little time with them near the Russian River recently. Can't wait to meet the little peanut.

Look at this face. I mean, really. Alina is the daughter of a dear friend of mine from high school, Stephanie.

This sweetheart lives in Portland, Oregon with her parents Adam and Cat. Adam is an old friend of Baptiste's, so we got to hang out with them a bit.

one baby, two baby, three...

I have 2 friends that had babies last week and 12 more people I know that are pregnant right now, probably more (yes, seriously 12). Probably you are too right now as you read this...are you pregnant? No? Well, I would go check if i were you.
I think art is partly about taking what is happening around you and making something of it, so I have been thinking a good project could come out of all this fecundity. Today I photographed 2 sweet little boys, Cameron and Freddy. It is on film, so the real pics will have to wait, but here are a couple digi pics of my friend Natalie and her 6 month old son Freddy Blu. Click on them to see them larger, please, he deserves it. And welcome to planet earth Charlotte and Preston! It's pretty nuts down here. Also, if there are any babies out there in the NYC area that would like their picture taken, hit me up.

I went to DC for a night for Nadia's baby shower. She is a bright spot in this world. I am so excited for her and Brian.
