Finch In The Window

2008-05-09T14:23:00.006-05:00

As many of you know, I do a lot of the image processing in our home office. So, I'm sitting at my computer this morning with the windows open so the nice cool spring air can flow in when first I see a male finch sit on my window sill and I think "this is going to be a really great day what a cute little red bird". A little time goes by and then the female finch comes along and I think double wow! A pair of finches. A little more time goes by and they bring back one single twig and leave it in the window. I say oh oh! They then start regularly bringing more twigs. So I think hmmmm... I can't have them building a nest here in this window cause I may want to close it. So the next time the birds leave I close the window and then the momma finch comes back carrying a little twig and is frantically trying to find a way in to "her nest". All I see is this cute little momma finch with a twig in her mouth "hoovering" outside my window, looking me right in the eye, looking lost ! I opened the window again! I think I know what comes next! Tom

PS I just looked up on the internet that finch gestation is 7-11 days. It is about the shortest of any of the birds. hmmmm how long till they can fly?

Fairy special

Our "Fairy Special" was a big success with Joscelyn. She loved dressing up and pretending to be a fairy princess.

Brody, 6 months old, seems quite fascinated with the baby in the mirror.

Annie & Brett's Wedding April 19th, 2008

Mommy & Daughter

2008-04-24T22:29:00.002-05:00

Beautiful!

Almost there

2008-04-24T22:05:00.002-05:00

Joshua was such a good sport about doing this image which was his mom's idea. Depicting the weary traveler, which he was not, took a lot of cooperation from this very high energy 5 year old.

Family photo

2008-04-24T21:49:00.002-05:00

The Rogers family has a new addition. Everyone had fun making beautiful images and memories for now and in the future. Priceless!

New York / Brooklyn

2008-04-18T12:35:00.010-05:00

Diane & I just got back from visiting family in Brooklyn. Every time that we go and experience "The City" it causes a paradigm shift to occur in the way we see the world and our photography. This trip I really tried to concentrate on getting some images to be displayed in our new expanded studio space.

The first image of the "Wallet Found" was taken right outside of a flea market looking towards a church in the middle of Brooklyn. Obviously the person that found the wallet is a very resourceful person, first of all they used a "found" scrap of paper to write the notice on then to attach it to the tree, if you look closely, a "bobby pin" to tack it to the tree. Once you get away from the "touristy" parts of New York you will find some of the most honest, nice and helpful people that you will ever find anywhere in the world.

The second image of the "New York Water Taxi" was taken from a pier in the "Red Hook" neighborhood in Brooklyn.

Bryce

Bryce was a very cooperative 3 mo old. Pretty adorable, don't you think?

Jake

For Jake's one year session, his mom brought red balloons. Jake had a great time!

Braydon

2008-03-30T17:32:00.003-05:00

Braydon is one of the cutest wildcat fans, don't you think?

Jared

2008-03-28T10:47:00.003-05:00

Jared is definitely ready for the Final Four!

Emma

2008-03-27T09:10:00.003-05:00

Emma is just 2 weeks old in this image. She pretty much slept through the whole session, but we still got some amazing images.

Chitwood / Schlotterbach Wedding 3/15/2008

2008-03-25T00:04:00.004-05:00

Just a very few of my favorites from our March 15th wedding!

Taryn

2008-03-24T09:37:00.004-05:00

Taryn is 6 months old. She is laying on a quilt her grandmother made for her, which makes this image even more special. We encourage moms to bring "props" like this to our baby sessions.

Ethan

2008-03-23T22:10:00.003-05:00

Ethan is playing in our new prop for children 1 year or older. Ethan had a great time honking the horn.

Happy Easter!

Karis

2008-03-20T09:50:00.005-05:00

Gigi

2008-03-19T10:41:00.003-05:00

Gigi is 6 months old. What a cutie! She is a very happy baby and loves to have her picture taken. She obviously loves her teddy bear too!

Nevaeh

2008-03-18T16:00:00.004-05:00

Nevaeh is 3 months old. Baby sessions are like the proverbial "box of chocolates" (you never really know what you're going to get). At Harrington's we try our best to get good smiles and/or giggles from our baby sessions. If nothing else, we have a good time. Nevaeh was really a sweetheart. She had lots of smiles.

Paige

2008-03-17T21:54:00.004-05:00

Paige is 18 months old and is very cute as you can see. She is becoming quite independent on one hand and very much a "mommy's little girl" on the other. We had lots of fun doing her 18 month session. Just ask her mom.

Kaden's First Birthday

2008-02-04T23:48:00.001-06:00

Aaron's Senior Sessions

2007-07-21T10:15:00.000-05:00

Just having fun playing with flash slideshows. This is from Aaron's senior sessions done last week. Towards the end of the slideshow Aaron's girlfriend Robyn joins us for a few shots. Be patient this slideshow may take a bit to load (broadband is must). Tom

Kristina's Senior Session

2007-07-16T17:00:00.000-05:00

Kristia loves the country! It was a ton of fun doing Kristina's session. We even included a few things that we found along the way driving to the lake!
