Now that the baptism has come and gone, I wanted to share some pics of little “M”, the newest addition to the Rivera family. She is a bit bigger than the last images I shared, but just as sweet! I can’t want for her to be sitting up so we can plan her next session.

You would have to see it to believe it, but little “E” here was barely 9 months old and was quite the walker, seriously the cutest thing ever. Such a charmer and a very happy baby boy, and judging by his parents I can certainly tell where he gets it from. He is just dreamy!!!

Here is one of my little stars, I thought it was so funny when mom told me that he was recognized by another client while out shopping. Well he should be, he has to be one of the most photographed babies, at least by me. I had the pleasure of photographing him monthly during his first year, and now this little guy is two years old. Always so sweet and so very friendly, although I think he knows me pretty well by now, lol.
Of course I have to show a before and after…
Isnt’t he just so darn cute!!! TTFN -R
In the midst of all this craziness with my busy holiday schedule, a few weeks ago I received the news that one of my images will be published in this months issue of Professional Photographer magazine as a result of a cover contest I entered earlier in the year. While I did not make the cover, I did however receive one of the 18 Honorable Mentions.
I am not only “honored” to have been selected amongst the 50,000 entries, I am delighted that the image which was chosen out of my five submissions is none other than my very favorite portrait of my daughters. The girls are excited that they will be in a “magazine” and are already talking about taking it to school for show & tell, too funny.
Some of my personal friends and family know this image all too well, it is one of the first things you see when you enter my home; last year I ordered it as a 30×40 canvas…it makes me smile.
I am looking out for the mail-lady for my copy of this months issue. To read the article regarding the cover contest click on the following link: http://www.ppmag.com/current_issue/pdfs/0811/0811_covercontest_web.pdf .

I have had nothing but the worst internet issues during the past couple of days, hopefully they will be resolved today, at least I am hoping Comcast will have the cure. Lucky for me I have other means to post to my blog, temporary of course.
I could not go another day without sharing these images of this lovely little lady. I certainly appreciate this age, of course that is because I have a little lady like this at home too. And little “L” here was just as expected, beautiful, sweet and lots and lots of FUN!!!
