Oh man! Last weekend was killer! That chocolate cake… the wine… the pizza… and the rain! It was too much. It’s only Tuesday, and we have at least one visibly down, and possibly up to three more walking wounded, and I’m not even including myself! Little Eliot had a horrendous night last night, with a [...]

His lovely little man is not our recent addition, but a good friends. I was very lucky to get a chance to take some newborn pictures of this handsome guy. I LOVE taking pictures of new babies. It’s possibly my favourite photographic subject (not including my own kids).

Last weekend was a little crazy for us. We took the first opportunity of the year to get outside and explore. On Saturday we found ourselves between Geneva and Annecy in a small village called Lovagny where a small natural curiosity is found. The geology is soft enough that a gorge was created from the [...]
