So it’s been a while since have posted anything here.  Mainly because we’re a split family at the moment.  My new job in Montana keeps me away from the girls til we can get moved, and K is getting to be a handful for Jenn so pictures come few and far between when it’s just the two of them.  Jenn did manage to capture some of K’s first crawls with her phone’s video camera tho.  I have spruced it up a bit here for you.  Enjoy!

So we’ve begun the move to Montana.  I’m here, having started the new job and living in temporary accommodations while Jenn and Katherine are still in Denver, working on getting the house there sold.  We’ve done a ton of renovations to the house and it just went on the market this weekend.  To celebrate, Jenn and Katherine flew up here to visit me for the weekend.  This also allowed our Realtor to have an open house today.  Hopefully that went well – we haven’t heard yet.

Jenn and Katherine are boarding their flight now, and I’m missing them already.  So here’s a quick pic from yesterday’s Zoo excursion.  The zoo here is a bit smaller than Denver’s, but a really nice facility.  I brought my camera along out of habit and while I didn’t get any really great shots, Jenn grabbed it from me at one point and caught this woolly bugger playing with his kid…  Hope you like it

Our favorite hat for Katherine was a gift from Auntie Lorna in England.  Katherine is growing like a weed now, and so is sadly coming to the end of the time when she can wear it.  Before that happened, we wanted to make sure to get some good pictures of her in it.  No better place for that in our house at the moment than the newly installed oak floors – mainly cause all the stuff that’s normally on the main level is in the garage until I’ve installed new baseboards (tomorrow’s project)…and because all the other rooms look like disaster areas at the moment as we’ve basically had to move off the main level of the house whilst the floors were going in.

Again, these were lit with the Lastolite EZYBox softbox, mainly because it was still setup and ready to go from Friday’s pics.  This time I remembered to dial down the flash though.

Anyway, as usual I digress.  Enjoy!

We had a very happy baby on our hands tonight…not sure why, but it lasted long enough for me to grab the camera gear and grab a few shots.  Click thru for a few more, and a quick explanation of shooting parameters.  Enjoy!

We met some friends this afternoon in the park to take some family portraits for them.  Afterwards, I got a couple decent pics of Katherine and Jenn.
