A couple of months ago, I had the awesome opportunity to photograph Zoë Keating, a truly amazing cellist. After our brief session, she mentioned that she was off to LA to record for a film called, The Secret Life of Bees, which just came out in theaters recently. I’m so glad I got a chance to meet her! Zoë’s work is extremely powerful and intense. Check it out if you get a chance.
Bella had her first birthday party a couple of weeks ago. I can’t believe it’s been a year already!!! Fun times. :) All photos courtesy of James! Not too shabby, love. 
[below] | Ben was volunteered to hold the piñata. He was…thrilled.
[below] | Fun with bubbles!
[below] | Turns out the piñata was not the violent stick-hitting kind, but rather, a kid-friendly, string-pulling kind. Whoever pulls the right string unlocks the treasure!
