Better in Bulk - Family photographer with a large family
Daily thoughts on living with a large family. I often share the tips I've learned as a photographer on how to get better pictures.
Today, I will truly let the pictures speak for themselves. I think they tell a pretty good story, don’t you? And then, my favorite… For more inspiring photos, check: 5 Minutes for Mom, High Impact Mom, The Bonafide Life, Shanamama, From Dates to Diapers, Not Your Mom Blog, The Divine Miss Mommy, Colorado Moms, Rajean [...]
My kids and I have spent the last 2 days in Pennsylvania with my sister and her 2 girls. It has definitely been the highlight of our Spring Break. Here’s a peek at all the fun we’ve had together… We’re heading back home tonight, and will sleep well after all the excitement we’ve had here, [...]
Please don’t be jealous. I have the best mom in the world. I would celebrate her every day if I could. I just wish that we lived closer together so that we could capture MORE memories like these. Mother’s Day will be here before you know it. Have you started planning for this year’s [...]
One of the highlights of every year is my family trip to Florida to visit my inlaws for Christmas. We started the tradition a few years back, and after 3 years basking in the Florida sunshine while the rest of Maryland is stuck under snow and ice, I’m ready to never have a white Christmas [...]
Castle Park is one of our Spring Break traditions. We picked today (because of the ideal weather) to meet some friends for a few hours of outdoor play time. Can you tell how much fun they had? Who would have guessed that AJ was up all night with the worst croup I’ve ever seen? Yes, [...]
It really is incredible how good bread can dress up a meal, and how WARM bread can make a good meal great. I regularly feed my family leftovers, but I rarely do much more than stick the dish on the kitchen counter with a stack of plates, a serving spoon, and an open microwave. I [...]
Spring Break is one of my favorite times for spending time with my kids. The weather is nicer than Winter Break, so we can spend time outdoors and exploring things around the DC area. And the time is shorter than Summer Break so we don’t get tired of each other (wait….did I really say that?). [...]
Sorry I’m late getting my PhotoStory Friday/ Give Me Your Best Shot post up. And please forgive my lack of fancy-camera pictures. I’ve been a little preoccupied partying with my kids. We’re celebrating the start of Spring Break!! Today the kids were in school….and tomorrow we all get to sleep in. Yes, glorious, wonderful vacation. [...]
I have a little tradition on Sunday afternoons. Other than taking a nap, of course. I listen to my toddlers talk in their silly, slurry accents. I watch my older kids bottle feed their little siblings for the first time. I listen to my Grandma tell stories and play songs on the piano with my [...]
Besides my wedding ring, the only pieces of fine jewelry that I own are a Wedgewood necklace I got in England in the mid 1990s, a single pearl necklace that CandyMan bought me for Mother’s Day many years ago (I am hoping that it’s just misplaced and not REALLY lost), and a five-diamond anniversary band [...]
