A day full of sunshine, laughter, and lots of love; it was simply beautiful all around. I feel privileged to have been a part of their day and to witness the special love they share. Of course working with <a href="http://www.flintweddings.com/">Tom</a> makes any wedding that much better. He continues to impress and inspire me beyond words. Here are some of my favorites from that beautiful day. </div><br />

This year has been busier and more successful than ever, but has kept me running! I've been busy taking pictures of the most wonderful families, designing albums and announcements and just overall crazy with a mile long to do list at all times. As a result I've neglected the blog. So I've come back to share a few recent pictures just to let you all know I'm alive, well and still snapping! <br />

When a child enters our world our lives are changed immediately and evermore. Everything is new and each step is more incredible than the last. The first time they lock eyes with you and you know you've connected in some unspoken but important way. The first time you know they’re responding to you with those adorable coos that echo your own. The miraculous first smiles and first steps. All too soon those precious months have come and gone and we're left with distant memories of that first and fleeting year. We hold those images in our mind of what they were like when we first met them; and all the little things they did along the way as they grew into unique little people. We don't get that time back, but we do get to preserve those important memories in pictures.<br />
<br />
Here is Jenna's first year in a few pictures I selected from the 4 photo sessions we had together in that time. I'm honored Jenna's parents trusted such an important task to me. She's grown so much and I just can't believe how quickly the year has gone by.<br />

I'm not quite sure where the time has gone. It wasn't that long ago that I was holding her in the hospital for the first time marveling at this new life. Now she's a year and a half, running around the house, yelling my name "lelli", "delli" or whatever other version she can get out that doesn't require the 'k' sound, sharing her toys with me and reciting her numbers and colors. I of course am enamored by her. Especially when I hear she's making requests to "watch Elmo with Aunt Kelli pleeeeeeeease!" It doesn't get much more adorable than that, does it? She's as sweet as she looks. I'm hoping she stays that way forever.<br />

<br />
I saw this quote today and had to share it. It makes me hope for every child to know of their own incredible uniqueness. I want for them to go out into the world with that knowledge and make their own path with confidence. At each and every session I am reminded of this. Children are amazing; brimming with curiosity, and full of possibility. They are spectacular to be near and observe, and to wonder what greatness lies ahead. These cuties from a recent session are no exception. I just know they're going to blaze trails in the years to come.<br />

It's such a beautiful time in upstate NY. The crisp blue skies, reappearance of apple crisp and pumpkin pies and of course the vibrant colors. My schedule has been packed with fellow fall fans and I'm loaded with gorgeous pictures with perfect fall backdrops. There's plenty more to share but currently I'm loving this picture.<br />

It was the 8th annual gala for the foundation which was created to raise funds and awareness for children with <a href="http://www.jorgeposadafoundation.org/craniosynostosis/">Craniosynostosis</a>. The theme of this year's Heroes 4Hope Gala was a salute to Yankee catchers. Joining Posada were Hall of Famer Yogi Berra, Yankee manager Joe Girardi, Rick Cerone, Mike Stanley, Charlie Silvera and the widows of Elston Howard and Thurnan Munson. Derek Jeter and Bernie Williams we also on hand to show their support. It was a huge honor to work with the Jorge Posada Foundation for such a worthy cause and to have our work linked on their website.

I'm trying to relive the good old days of 5th grade here...humor me :)</div><div><br />The recent months have been extremely busy, but extremely awesome. Tom and I moved into a new home. We weathered a seemingly endless remodel that had the fridge in the family room and the toilet on the balcony (no, we didn't use it out there), and boxes that still need to be unpacked. We've traveled across states for concerts, workshops and weddings. </div><div><br />The last few months have whirled by and mostly I'm just trying to keep up. But when I stop and take a moment to look back I am so grateful. My life has been enriched by each place I've taken in and by each unique person I've shared the moments with. Sometimes I can't believe how fortunate I have been. </div><div><br />Once the dust settles (literally) I will be back to blogging. In the meantime here's a few cel phone pics I've snapped along the way.</div><div><br /></div><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_XfLwE43Ay5w/SqBnEt6YmUI/AAAAAAAAAxk/GqMdr8eMZws/s1600-h/blog.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377411285821987138" style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

It's true. Every photo session is a new experience. Peeking into people's lives and the bond they share as a family. It's an opportunity for me to connect with new people and capture their spirit to be looked back upon for years to come. Each family is beautifully unique and I always take so much away from every experience. I had so much fun taking pictures with Annemarie, Jeff and their two adorable daughters. Emily is at the stage where she sticks her tongue out at everything...it's so funny and adorable at the same time. Makayla has boundless energy. She's spunky and carefree; just like a 4 year old should be. I had to sneak my shots in between playing with her dollhouse and a few rounds of <a href="http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/179-7422515-7611162?asin=B00006408Q&afid=yahoossplp&lnm=B00006408QZingo_Game&ref=tgt_adv_XSMG1060">zingo</a>, which of course she beat me at fair and square! I'm looking forward to a rematch at our next session, and hopefully more fun pictures of this beautiful family.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_Keys-1041a-1.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 800px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 533px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_Keys-1041a-1.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_Keys-1051.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 800px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 533px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_Keys-1051.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_Keys-1048.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 800px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 533px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_Keys-1048.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_Keys-1032.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 800px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 533px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_Keys-1032.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_Keys-1003.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 800px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 529px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_Keys-1003.jpg" border="0" /></a>kelli marshhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09082522234686305883noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4980302322904218239.post-52824427801318833112009-04-16T12:10:00.002-04:002009-04-17T15:22:26.478-04:00HomecomingWhen I received an email from Theresa months ago, I was so excited. She and her husband Jim were in the process of adopting a baby from Ethiopia and wanted to have someone at the airport to take pictures of a small gathering of friends and family that would be there to welcome them. I knew it would be unlike any other job I've had and was thrilled to be a part of it. I didn't want to miss a second of such a monumental event so I asked <a href="http://www.flintweddings.com">Tom</a> to come along too. Neither one of us had any idea what was in store. <br /><br />When the date finally arrived, we got to the airport early. I pulled a few strings and got to the gate to wait for them while Tom stayed on the other side of security waiting with the small group of friends and family that had already gathered. When Theresa and Jim got off of the plane they were excited to show off their beautiful little angel. They were all smiles and definitely had no idea of the reception awaiting them. None of us did. As we approached the exit we could see rows and rows of friends and family, balloons and banners, it was unreal. When the doors opened there was an explosion of cheers, crying, laughter, and hugs. I wasn't prepared for how hard that would hit me. Overwhelmed by emotion I fought back tears while I tried to catch every smile, every hug, every once in a lifetime moment. This was the beginning for them. After a long road of paperwork and trip around the world...they were finally home together, and their friends and family made sure they had the warmest welcome home ever. It was one of the most beautiful moments I've ever witnessed. <br /><br /><a href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog15.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 800px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 533px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog15.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog1.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 800px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 533px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog1.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog11.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 800px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 533px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog11.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog16.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 800px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 533px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog16.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog12.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 800px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 533px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog12.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog2.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 800px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 533px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog2.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog3.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 800px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 533px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog3.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog13.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 800px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 533px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog13.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog4.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 533px;" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog4.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog5.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 533px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 800px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog5.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog8.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 800px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 533px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog8.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog10.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 533px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 800px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog10.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog7.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 533px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 800px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog7.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog9.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 800px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 533px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM_luciano_blog9.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br />I will forever remember Luca's excited smile...and the way Jim and Theresa beamed as she carried him around and introduced him to all the people that will be a part of his new life here. Several weeks later and I still get choked up thinking about it. It was amazing; and unforgettable and I am so honored to have been a part of such a monumental event in their lives.<br /><br />Many thanks to <a href="http://www.flintweddings.com">Tomas Flint</a> for coming along and catching some fantastic shots of this incredible day.

A super talented glass bead artist, she was looking for some pictures of herself at work in her studio for a book she's writing. I of course was jazzed about seeing her in action. She's an artist with a talent I wanted to know more about, and I was going to watch her work her magic! When the day finally came, I was as fascinated as I thought I'd be. Kerry was so cool; she made my job easy! She excitedly welcomed me into the studio, showed me all of her 'gear' and chatted with me while she demonstrated her skills. With a rainbow of glass rods, torch, steady hand, and her incredible talent she whipped up little masterpieces. In between snaps I found myself in awe of the glass, their brilliant colors and her ability to meld them into beautiful, wearable pieces of art. I'm telling you, she is amazingly talented.

If you're ready to own a beautiful piece of jewelry that will wow people you have to talk to Kerry. Be on the lookout for news of her book coming out...I for one am definitely psyched to see it!<br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div>kelli marshhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09082522234686305883noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4980302322904218239.post-74923254677707511722009-02-27T18:10:00.002-05:002009-02-28T12:02:56.746-05:00Songs At HomeThere are so many reasons I love sharing a home with Tom. He doesn't mind doing the dishes. He's not that much of a sore loser when I beat him at Wii bowling and doesn't gloat too much when he wins. He makes me tea in the morning. The list could go a mile long but one thing I'm particluarly grateful for is the music he fills the house with. Guitar in hand and full of passion he'll belt out favorites from Pearl Jam, The Beatles, Jack Johnson, or one of the many beautiful songs he's written. He can make me laugh, warm my heart, or bring me to tears with the sounds and songs he makes. I can't imagine living in a house without music and thanks to Tom I won't ever have to.<br /><br />Here he is after some songs at home with his much loved guitar.<br /><a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/tom.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/tom1.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />Music is a moral law.

From the moment I got there David was only interested in one thing, play time. The images I caught were stolen in between bribes of time with his toys...in just one more minute. Thankfully we were able to distract him long enough to catch him being his charismatic self. David has quite a big personality for such a little man. He took over the room...where he sat, how he sat, and who he sat with... it was all up to him. Pictures with mom and dad weren't enough. We HAD to take some with his green dinosaurs too. He is sweet, funny, and clearly knows what he wants. A little man with a mind of his own for sure.</p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"><br /></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"><a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/davidblog2.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"><br /></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"><a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/davidblog3.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"><br /></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"><a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/davidblog8.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"><br /></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"><a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/davidblog6.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"><br /></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"><a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/dmblog4.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a></p><p></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"><br /></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"><a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/davidblog5-1.jpg" border="0" alt="300" /></a></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"><br /></p><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica"><br /></p><p></p><p></p><p></p>kelli marshhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09082522234686305883noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4980302322904218239.post-47377513145195510832008-12-16T09:15:00.017-05:002008-12-16T16:25:53.364-05:00A Bond For LifeI have the best job. Really. I have been so lucky to work with the most wonderful people that always add more joy to my day. This session was no exception. These kids teased each other, drove tractors around, joked with me, made snowballs and even started an attack on dad! In spite of all the mischief that's typical to kids at this age you can tell they have a special bond. It was awesome to spend some time with a family that so clearly enjoys their time together. It reminded me of how thankful I am for my family; for my sister and brother. The bond siblings share is unique and one that I am extremely grateful for. I love to think that these kids will only grow closer as the years go on. Aren't they a beautiful bunch?<br /><br /><p align="center"><a href="http://s73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/?action=view&current=tachinblog5.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/tachinblog5.jpg" border="0" /></a></p><br /><br /><a href="http://s73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/?action=view&current=tachinblog6.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/tachinblog6.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/?action=view&current=tachinblog9.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/tachinblog9.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/?action=view&current=tachinblog7.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/tachinblog7.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><p align="center"><a href="http://s73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/?action=view&current=tachinblog8.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/tachinblog8.jpg" border="0" /></a></p><br /><br /><p align="center"><a href="http://s73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/?action=view&current=tachinblog3.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/tachinblog3.jpg" border="0" /></a></p><br /><br /><p align="center"><a href="http://s73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/?action=view&current=tachinblog2.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/tachinblog2.jpg" border="0" /></a></p><br /><br /><p align="center"><a href="http://s73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/?action=view&current=tachinblog1.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/tachinblog1.jpg" border="0" /></a></p>kelli marshhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09082522234686305883noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4980302322904218239.post-77562703956443681942008-12-11T10:32:00.005-05:002008-12-11T13:54:14.916-05:00How They Grow!I will never stop being amazed by the little hands and tiny fingers, spontaneous giggles and extraordinary light that comes from little ones. I often wonder how it's possible that I was ever that size, how any of us were that small once. So innocent and so full of wonder. During photo sessions I often find myself standing in awe of these fascinating little creatures. Their innocence and wonder makes me wish I could remember who I was when I was that small. How it felt to be so wide eyed and unaware of myself. The younger years fade away too fast and before we know it these moments become memories. For my part, I just keep trying to stop time for families with babies that are growing way too fast. The last time I saw Ella she was just 3 months old. It's 3 months later...she's changed so much, and surely too fast for her parents! <br /><br /><a href="http://s73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/?action=view&current=RochesterChildrensPhotographyblo-3.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/RochesterChildrensPhotographyblo-3.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/?action=view&current=RochesterChildrensPhotographyKMKrug.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/RochesterChildrensPhotographyKMKrug.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/?action=view&current=RochesterChildrensPhotographyBlo-2.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/RochesterChildrensPhotographyBlo-2.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/?action=view&current=RochesterChildrensPhotographyblo-1.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/RochesterChildrensPhotographyblo-1.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/?action=view&current=Rochester-Childrens-Photography-blo.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/Rochester-Childrens-Photography-blo.jpg" border="0" /></a>kelli marshhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09082522234686305883noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4980302322904218239.post-42627604877758189832008-11-26T07:12:00.000-05:002008-11-26T15:19:52.327-05:00Giving ThanksTomorrow is a big day. Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays of the year. Who doesn't look forward to the mounds of delicious stuffing, turkey and apple and pumpkin pies? But there's so much more than piles of food that make Thanksgiving a favorite of mine. It's the opportunity to feel gratitude for health, the freedom we have to make our dreams come true and wonderful friends and family in our lives. I am grateful beyond words for all that I have and will spend the day reminding those that make my life better how thankful I am to have them. Life is good...really good! <br /><br />Before I take off for the holiday weekend I wanted to share a few pics from a recent session. We went to the pumpkin patch in pursuit of the perfect pumpkin. I'm not sure we found it, but it was lots of fun looking! <br /><br />He's a handsome little man, isn't he?<br /><a href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/shawnblog.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 533px;" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/shawnblog.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />In hot pursuit of the great pumpkin...<br /><a href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/shawn2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 533px;" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/shawn2.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />Now go spread thanks and stuff yourselves silly!kelli marshhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09082522234686305883noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4980302322904218239.post-7872991706060427232008-11-17T07:20:00.003-05:002008-11-17T11:49:03.638-05:00Blog SlackingI've done it again. I've neglected my blog and my loyal readers...boooo. I've never been so busy and in the interest of making deadlines for clients I have let my blog efforts slack. So it's for good cause that I've been MIA from the blog world right? I've had some really fun sessions in the last few months and can't wait to share some the images from them. Once I dig through them all, I'll be putting them up so check back soon! In the meantime I wanted to share one recent image that I just love. <br /><br /><a href="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM-Moore-1067copy-2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 799px; height: 533px;" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM-Moore-1067copy-2.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />Be well until the next time...kelli marshhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09082522234686305883noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4980302322904218239.post-78072891253760221562008-10-14T21:21:00.023-04:002008-10-15T11:00:38.712-04:00Sarah & Chris<div align="left">As individuals Sarah and Chris are beautiful...together the are even more so.

Just back from a wedding in New York City, <a href="http://www.flintweddings.com">Tom</a> and I are getting ready to leave tomorrow for another in Puerto Rico at the beautiful <a href="http://www.elconresort.com">El Conquistador Resort</a>. It's been an incredibly busy but exciting season of weddings that have brought us to many great cities and introduced us to wonderful, new friends along the way. I can't express my gratitude to all the couples, their families, and friends that have welcomed us into their special day as extended family members. It has truly been a season rich with experience, laughter, and good times. I know I'm getting ahead of myself as wedding season isn't over yet, but I figured now is as good a time as any to reflect on what a good summer and season it's been...the best of times.<br /><br />Before I take off for paradise I'll leave you with a pic of a new friend I met along the way. Isn't that the sweetest face?<br /><br /><a href="http://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=" target="_blank" action="'view&current="><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM-puppy-blog.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Farewell til the next time.kelli marshhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09082522234686305883noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4980302322904218239.post-39531851254936771032008-08-25T18:30:00.003-04:002008-08-25T18:41:56.787-04:00One WeekLula is one week old today. It's unbelievable how much she's changed already! We had a brief visit yesterday. She squirmed around a little bit, inspected my face as I held her, and mostly just napped. I spent some time starting at her, being fascinated by the purity of this new little person I held in my arms. Simply amazing. Here she is looking adorable and oh-so-sleepy! <br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=" com="" albums="" i214="" smilekm="" action="view&current=KAM-Lula-blog.jpg"" target="_blank"><img src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM-Lula-blog.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a>kelli marshhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09082522234686305883noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4980302322904218239.post-3375279435445502782008-08-21T20:08:00.015-04:002008-08-22T01:05:27.992-04:00Kaitlin & StephenWhen I think back to Stephen and Katilin's wedding the first thing that comes to mind is the image of them teasing each other and having a good laugh together. On a day that can stress many brides and grooms, Kaitlin and Stephen approached the day lighthearted and full of spunk. It was a joy to work with them and to spend the day shooting such a carefree couple. I couldn't help but feel a little bit lighter in their presence. I think the pictures say it all.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">the beautiful bride<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=" com="" albums="" i214="" smilekm="" action="view&current=KAM-1000.jpg"" target="_blank"><img src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM-1000.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=" com="" albums="" i214="" smilekm="" action="view&current=KAM-1002-1.jpg"" target="_blank"><img src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM-1002-1.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">clowning around...as usual!<br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=" com="" albums="" i214="" smilekm="" action="view&current=KAM-1004.jpg"" target="_blank"><img src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM-1004.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=" com="" albums="" i214="" smilekm="" action="view&current=KAM-1001-1.jpg"" target="_blank"><img src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM-1001-1.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=" com="" albums="" i214="" smilekm="" action="view&current=KAM-1006-1.jpg"" target="_blank"><img src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM-1006-1.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=" com="" albums="" i214="" smilekm="" action="view&current=KAM-1005-1.jpg"" target="_blank"><img src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM-1005-1.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br />Many thanks to Kaitlin and Stephen for reminding me how much fun love should be and to the Guenette and Gionta families for sharing such a special day with us!<br /><br />Also a huge thank you to the super talented <a href="http://www.flintweddings.com/">Tomas Flint</a> for continuing to inspire and motivate me.

She kept us waiting, arriving over a week late, but she was well worth the wait. Aside from her shriveled feet (from staying in the "oven" too long) she is beautiful from head to toe. The doctor said she's perfect. I snapped picture after picture but spent so much time at the hospital I've only pulled a few of my favorites of Lula's first 12 hours. I'll be sure to get more up asap so all of you out of towner's can get a good look at her.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=" com="" albums="" i214="" smilekm="" action="view&current=KAM-Lula-1002.jpg"" target="_blank"><img src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM-Lula-1002.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=" com="" albums="" i214="" smilekm="" action="view&current=KAM-Lula-1005.jpg"" target="_blank"><img src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM-Lula-1005.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=" com="" albums="" i214="" smilekm="" action="view&current=KAM-Lula-1004.jpg"" target="_blank"><img src="http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/smilekm/KAM-Lula-1004.jpg" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br />Congratulations to Mike and Ali on the birth of their amazing little girl and best wishes for days filled with laughter and nights filled with good rest (you're gonna need it!)<br />love you all!kelli marshhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09082522234686305883noreply@blogger.com2
