November 30, 2008How did that happen??
November 24, 2008Did you ever woke up one morning and looked at your child and thought how in the world could she possible be so big already?? Where did the time go? This is what i am thinking right now every morning and sometimes when i catch my daughter doing big people things. Like crossing her legs while talking on her toy phone. Trying to put the shirt on herself and wanting to use my make up. Gosh i thought it was yesterday when we brought her home and she was just a ball with ten fingers and ten toes.
This is when i just have to get my camera out and take some pictures to preserve exactly those moments. And of course i have to share some with you…
Update and some private Ally pictures
November 15, 2008A quick update on my last Family Session and i finally managed it to take some pictures of Ally. She is getting so big i can’t believe it! And what a cute witch she was on Halloween! We went Trick or Treatin for the first time this year and i had so much fun watching her discovering how the whole candy thing works and i had to laugh so hard in the end when she just went to the door, smiled, said HI and kind of just waited for the people to through Candy in her bag.

November 15, 2008Regensburg, Bavaria
November 9, 2008So tonight i got a little bit of a different blogpost. I thought i gonna show you my hometown Regensburg in Germany and tell you just a little bit about it.
Once a Roman Legionary fortress built during the reign of the Emperor Marcus Aurelius in 179 A.D. , after 739, the seat of the Emperor Charlemagne for some periods, conquered by Napoleon is Regensburg now one of Germany’s most rapidly expanding regions and home of the most wonderful beer gardens and pub’s in Bavaria. Some even call it Italien’s northerns city cause of the italien flair in every corner of the city. People in Regensburg love to sit outside in cafe’s, chat and enjoy the wonderful historical buildings around them.
We even got a palace and a princess. Should you ever be in Regensburg you are not allowed to miss a tour through the wonderful palace and the park.
Or the most important Gothic cathedral east of the Rhine. The St. Peter’s Cathedral.
This here is the Porta Praetoria, the northern gate of the Roman legionary camp of Castra Regina, while Marcus Aurelius was emperor in Rome. Together with the Porta Nigra in Trier, the Porta Praetoria is the only largely intact Roman town gate north of the Alps. The building is the Hotel Bischofshof where Jon’s and mine wedding was celebrated and we spent our wedding night. We actually slept in the Porta Praetoria Room surrounded by the historical wall.
So i hope i could bring you my hometown a little closer and maybe you will now even plan to visit this wonderful city at the Donau when you are in Germany. Believe me it is worth a trip.. and if it is just for an afternoon in one of our wonderful beer gardens! I can’t wait for my next trip home and for the pictures i will bring you when i am back. I am planning on booking some photoshoots for the time i will be home and you don’t know how excited i am to use the historical scenery of Regensburg as a background! So stay tuned for dates i will be available for sessions in Regensburg, Munich and in between and of course for the pictures!
