13 {images} of Christmas – Providence Family photography

Okay, so if I had planned better I would have done this on actual DAYS rather than all in one post.  But between regular holiday craziness, extra sessions squeezed in and Layne’s upcoming birthday that just wasn’t going to happen.  So instead it’s all here together.  (A collective YAY!!)  And if I had been more accurate, it would have been the top 12.  But I just couldn’t cut it down.  So my top 13 favorite images from 2009.  This is not a countdown because I don’t think that I could narrow it down to an order, but these are my top choices 🙂

#13  Loved these boys.  Loved this image.  So, so sweet 🙂  (And as a side note, it got me a large editorial photo in The Baby Guide.  Can’t complain!!)

#12  Perfection all curled up.  The lighting, the cocoon, everything.

#11  This was taken during my shoot for my What to Wear guide.  But the moment and the light make it one of my absolute favorites.

#10  You know I’m all about the moments.  I love this one.  So much that I wanted to put my family’s faces on it and use it for MY holiday photo.

#9  How could I not pick this one?!?!!  The colors are what made this photo for me.  Not only a gorgeous baby belly but in a gorgeous surrounding.

#8  Pure happiness 🙂

#7  Pure love.  On both parts.

#6  I usually am not a fan of awake newborns.  But L. totally rocked it 😉  Love how adorable she looks here, like she’s checking out the world.

#5   This just makes me feel good.  Not only because it reminds me of my trip to the Outer Banks and my photog girls, but a family moment captured and in such a stunning location.

#4  I wonder when I see this if people think I put A into this pose.  It was a completely spontaneous moment and he happened to put his hand up as I was snapping the photo.  What resulted is one of my most favorite family moments.

#3  Do I really need to say anything?? 🙂

#2  More pure happiness!  W family made it twice!!!

#1  I want to keep a big giant print of this next to my desk.  So whenever I feel down in any way, I can look at it and smile.  Her look, her expression, everything just totally make this.

That’s it for this year.  I can’t WAIT for a whole new year to choose from!!!!!!
