I can personally attest to the awesomeness of both BabyHawk and Sakura Bloom. Both make fabulous baby carriers and are teaming up to raise money for Partners in Health-Haiti. If you are in the market for a baby carrier, please check them out January 21 and 22.

And since a post with pictures is *always* better than one without…

High time I posted

November 22, 2009

I’ve had the flu (and I so don’t recommend it to anyone!) and have not been keeping up with the blog as I should.  I have been so lucky to photograph the most fun and beautiful families lately. I must say I love my job!

First off, I have a fun new logo!

A while back, I had the pleasure of attending a photography workshop by Amy Wenzel in Michigan. Here are a few of the photos I got.

Some dear friends from MN

The K family

The S family

My dearest friend and her gorgeous family

I can’t believe Bruiser is 1!

J and P and G — love this family!

The M Family — Little Miss A is such a doll!

Some photos I did for Neobulle Wraps, made in France

    ames: Wow! Those are incredible, Carrie! You really have a gift in capturing the beauty and spirit of the families and kiddos you photograph. You're amazing! (I can't believe H's little one is ONE either.)

What to expect: up to 45 minutes of the photographer’s time, 5-10 images in an online gallery, and 1 full resolution image for you to use as you wish (holiday card, birth announcement). Prints for all images can be ordered for up to three weeks after your gallery is available. You can expect your gallery within a week of the shoot.

All this for $80! Email carrie@shiningwavephotography.com to book your session.

My shining wave turns four

August 25, 2009

My sweet boy (whose name means a shining, brilliant wave and who I named my business after) turned four yesterday.

Hard to believe he has gone from our first glimpse of him

To the amazing big boy he is now

    sarahlou: AWWWW-this is precious!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY D!

    Heather Greenwood: we love you sweet boy... Happy Birthday!

    Grace aka blackbelt: Wait, how can you be the photographer if you're in it? ;-) XXOO you GO grrrl!

What a lovely, lovely family to photograph. Check out gorgeous Miss M and her little brother. Aren’t they too cute for words? Mom and Dad just complete this beautiful family.

    ames: Stunning!

Two years old today!

Happy Birthday, sweet pea!  You are so loved.

    ames: Oh, SP. I do hope you know how much we all love you. You are precious and we hope you have a splendid birthday. Love, Auntie Amy and Uncle Elliott

    sarahlou: these are absolutely beautiful ... happy birthday J!

    Janica Boles: You are one incredibly lucky mama. But I kinda think you already knew that. ;)

    Lisa: Happy Birthday, Princess!

The L Family

What a lovely evening with a fun family.  Little brother kept cracking me up with his expressions.  And big sis was a natural in front of the camera.
