My baby is half a year old today!

I plan on posting more, but we had to get these up for her grandma fan club in Utah. I loved the flower garden I shot at with Prianka, so we had to revisit it for Ella. We treated her six month shoot like a real session, with a change of outfits and everything. So she gets to be posted on my official blog, not just the family one! But if you can't wait for more pictures, check out her slideshow on my website. Her password is "mom".

ELIZABETH TAYLOR FRANDSEN PHOTOGRAPHY

What if you woke up one day and realized you had two passions in life: your family and your photography. And you weren’t willing to let one or the other go. Well, let me tell you. The time on your phone would brightly glare out, 4:13 am. You’d wonder why you were awake. Oh, that’s right. Your baby still doesn’t sleep through the night.

What if the next time you checked your phone, still awake mind you, it said, 5:17 am. You’d again question your not sleeping awake status. But oh, that’s right. You can’t turn your creative little mind off and it’s always on photography.

You know what your husband is dreaming about.

It’s not photography.

So you slip out of bed to squeeze in a few uninterrupted hours of design time. Then, like clock-work, your family comes alive, oh say around 7:14. (Well Ella wakes up then, Jordan’s a minute behind, because seriously, who sets their alarm for :14 anything?)

By noon you’re beat. Exhausted. This is madness you think. And then you realize it’s nap time. Suddenly, all the world is well. You lay down next to your angelic daughter (all children resemble angels when sleeping) and think how lucky you are to have the best of both worlds, madness included. No studio hours to keep, no baby sitters to pay. Just you. Your family, your business. At home. Loving Life.

It works for me.

Thanks for stopping by and welcome to my life.
