This Session Spotlight is so very old … like from January old but I didn’t want one of my BFF’s to feel left out that I didn’t blog her adorable little man. This is the “G” Man and he’s awesome! Don’t you just love that baby chub and his curls?! I mean, how can you not? He’s a busy little guy now and really needs some new portraits with his mommy and sisters but here he is … all the way back from January when I technically was not supposed to be photographing him because I was supposed to be on bedrest with pnuemonia … oops! … but I survived (obviously) and his portraits are adorable!

And remember, when this session spotlight receives 10+ comments or facebook comments here on the  blog they receive a special gift from me! Comment away!

I guess this is the week of children who’s names start with the letter M … and they’re all so cute too! I’ve been photographing this adorable little lady since she was in her momma’s tummy and I even photographed her parents wonderful wedding in Jamaica. I just now realized that in my bad blogging days that I never blogged her six month session so this Session Spotlight is going to include images from each of her sessions!

Whimsical Wednesday | 5/4

Today’s Whimsical Wednesday is about food. Most of you probably don’t know that I also have another blog (that I’m totally behind on too) about the changes I am making with our family’s eating habits. If you haven’t seen it yet, it’s The Hip & Healthy Mom and it’s badly in need of updating.

Today ABC announced that it pulled Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution from the May schedule and moved it to Friday nights at 9 PM starting June 3rd. They’ve basically sent it to the land of death for TV shows. Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution is a show that America, as a whole, needs to see. You should also check out Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution Website and sign the petition to get better food in to the schools. 
Obesity is an epidemic and it’s sweeping our nation. The statistics are heart breaking and staggering. People need to be re-trained how to eat and how they view foods. I think so many people have forgotten what “sometimes” foods are because they’ve turned in to an “anytime” food. Sugar, in it’s many different and often misleading names and forms, is being added to EVERYTHING! It’s too much and it’s got to stop. 
Did you know that one container of Yoplait low fat yogurt has the equivalent of 7 teaspoons of sugar in it? Would you feed your kids 7 teaspoons of sugar all at once? Heck no! But, because of the misleading packaging, labeling and hidden sugars, it’s happening every single day. Don’t even get me started on Gogurt …. ewwwww!
How can American’s have a chance to fight the epidemic when every food manufacturer out there is trying to find cheaper ways to produce processed foods that are loaded with so much sugar and junk? It causes an addiction and it’s a hard one to break. We need to take a stand and learn to feed ourselves and our children again. Forget that ridiculous food pyramid that the USDA has for us … it has only made America fat, sick and unhappy.
The first changes that I’ve made in regards to feeding my family is I stopped shopping in the grocery aisles. I only go down the aisles for frozen vegetables, natural peanut butter, sugar free jam, condiments (mayo, mustard, reduced sugar ketchup). My kids have had a hard time with not being able to have cereal but we’ve talked about the whys and hows of it and created a compromise that I will make homemade cereal without the added crap that goes in to boxed cereal. We switched to whole milk … yes, I said WHOLE milk. If you’re going to consume dairy (I don’t but my family does) it’s far better to consume whole milk products. The fat in the milk is necessary to slow down the absorption of the sugar in the milk. Skim milk and cereal is probably the worst breakfast option to choose. It’s basically a bowl full of sugar.
I’m far from perfect in my quest to change my family’s habits and we still falter more often than we should. My husband is pretty much dead set against me. I can’t change what he eats outside of the home and I know it annoys him to no end that I don’t keep chips, cookies, snacks and crap in the house. I’m not willing to sacrifice our well being for something that offers so little satisfaction. Sure, it may taste good on the way down … but was it worth it? It takes 4 days to break an addiction to sugar. If that stuff is in the house there is no way any of us would get past that 4 days and the vicious cycle would continue. 
If you feel like you and your family need to understand what is wrong with America’s food system and want Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution to continue airing at a prime time and no the dead zone, please contact ABC and let them know. We, as Americans, need help!
If anyone needs help on a personal level, I would like to recommend Maria Emmerich. She is a wonderful nutritionist and author. You can find her books on her website and also on Amazon. She has helped me immensely and I highly recommend her!

A year and a half ago I had the honor of photographing this beautiful couple’s wedding and I was so happy to photograph their adorable newborn when he made his little arrival. Mr. M is just so sweet and tiny. He slept really well for us and is just as cute as can be. Enjoy parenthood Randy & Daisy!
