Oh Monday. You try so hard to kick my butt. You come in screaming with your grounds-in-the-coffee and your ewwww-that-grapefruit-is-squishy and your WHERE ARE MY $#@!&$# KEYS and you almost do it…you almost get me. I come THIS close to just lying down in the cold dark street and begging you to just get it over with, quickly, please.
But you know I have a secret weapon. You know I always win. BACK OFF, MONDAY.
We are mighty.
yuck. That’s worse than all the freaky italics mysteriously showing up on this blog. Hang in there!
Like you read my mind. Back from Vegas, ready to put the pedal to the medal. Dishwasher – dead. Fridge – dying (3rd time). Trusty iMac — where is your chime? No chime. No nothin’. Only saving grace — 8 days left on warranty. Good riddance, Monday. You stink. xoxo PS – love the C pics!

Seriously? Chocolate hangover BEATS all other hangovers, hands-down. Ouch. My teeth ache. The only logical choice is to finish this bag of M&Ms so they’re out of the way, right?
However, so much fun. I’m hoping to put up a full post later, but for now enjoy the eye-candy (less painful than the HANDFULS I had for dinner last night). A big thank you to Cindy at Mariposa for a fun event!

This is Jack. He’s ten days old. We just hung around.
This is his big sister Ava. She’s two and a half. She is still the boss.
Together they are going to rule the world.
Looks fun, huh? It was! Ava was kind enough to bring us tea while her brother cycled through many moods. Please click below to see them all! (something new I’m trying out…what do you think?)

These pictures are so beautiful and capture the love, newness of the baby, pride of a big sister and love of the parents! So much fun to be “hanging around!” LOVE THEM ALL!
This is going to sound so corny, but I’m looking at these pictures of my babies with tears in my eyes, we had such a wonderful experience with you yesterday, THANK YOU for such beautiful photos!
OMG….love the hanging out!!!! you need to make a book of all your best shoots, although it would be quite a BIG book!
love the new slideshow Lisa! Great shoot!
Just hanging out? SO adorable! I love your creative spirit

With all the advances in blog and website technology; with all the security measures in place so that no file is lost, no security is compromised; all it took was one misguided click and all of my blog posts from the past year have swirled into the giant Trashbin in the sky. You’ll likely notice that if you try to click on archived posts, they either don’t exist, or they come up with funny little numbers where the PHOTOS (this is a PHOTO blog, right?) should be. I have been contemplating uploading everything all over again, but have decided, based on the irrefutable wisdom of Mister Bob Dylan* (and a weary yet kind tech support guy at Go Daddy) to let it all go and start fresh. My apologies to any of you who came here to see something specific and found that it was gone. I’d be happy to upload or send an image, just ask. Otherwise, I hope you’ll stay tuned for what’s to come! More babies, more spunky kids, more weddings, and whatever happens in Vegas. I’m not afraid.
* An artist has got to be careful never really to arrive at a place where he thinks he’s at somewhere. You always have to realize that you’re constantly in a state of becoming. As long as you can stay in that realm, you’ll sort of be all right — Dylan
And because this is a PHOTO blog, I leave you with this:
Enjoy your week!

Starting fresh is always good. This picture rocks, btw.
“There is no use trying” said Alice, “One can’t believe impossible things”.
“I dare say you haven’t had much practice” said the Queen. “When I was your
age, I always did it for an hour a day. Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many
as six impossible things before breakfast.”

The Buddhists call it Monkey Mind. Seth Godin writes brilliantly about it here. Most of the guys I meet are experts at it. Contradiction. Distraction. Second guessing. Mixed messages. The art of sticking to your story is HARD. Go with your head, or your heart? Move ahead with that original idea, or reign it in because it might alienate your customers/friends/community? Chicken or fish?
How much tenacity is too much? I always thought that if you followed your instincts, if you went with what felt right to you (exogenous factors notwithstanding), you’d always come out proud. It’s not that easy though, is it?
January makes me think too much.
Here’s something I don’t have to think twice about:

Beautiful!!!
Brilliant as ever, on all fronts!
hey, just the guys? Love the color in that photo.
Love the idea of big prints and a photo wall, but still want to be able to show the photos to grandma? Albums. Books. Deliciousness.
Leather flush-mount albums:
True lay-flat, no gutter!
Not into leather? Press-printed hardcover books are wicked fun.
Expertly designed. Choose as many or as few photos as you like. They’re fun! They’re portable! Go ahead, ask me how you can get one!

…well, you probably are home. Staring at blank walls, wondering why you ordered that 5×7 that just disappears. It happens all the time. I’ve had clients call me the same day their photos arrive and say “I should have gone a little bigger…” I’ve always held my tongue, but since when has that done me any good? Let’s get BIG.
I’m all about the canvases; sleek, contemporary, and no framing required. And look how great they are clustered together!
displays by Anna Mayer and Angela Weedon.
One canvas, many photos:
Photos from Design Aglow
For those of you afraid to commit to larger prints, wouldn’t something like this look so great in your hallway? (photo by the amazing Melissa Jill.)
Make this the year you get inspired to do something creative with your photos. Your kids, your families: they’re gorgeous! Let’s get them out in the open where people can really see them. POW!
(Or you could always put something like this on the wall. I would. I just might. It makes me laugh like an idiot.)
You can see more work from the wonderful Marc Johns here.

I found you via Facebook, btw. My name is Lisa Gilbert too.
