WATERSIDE


Some people were leaving back to their cars just as we were arriving.

We had enough time to have the beach nearly to ourselves for an hour before the area was cleared, then set off running for shelter as we waited for the thunderstorm to pass.  The lake was beautiful, cool and refreshing.  Sofia and I swam together as Erick quietly observed from a distance, we wandered far enough into the water to float and watched as airplanes passed overhead.  I hope someday we build our home near the water, I don't think my heart could take it if I were very far away.

This week leaves me limited time for personal photos as I am working very hard on finishing up a few client shoots and preparing for another wedding over the weekend.  I'll be happy when the long nights are over and my files are happily packaged and on their way.

Soon.

    Kate, your pictures are fabulous! I'm blown away!

    to be honest, I'm not much of a photographer. I do, however, enjoy taking pictures and writing about my crazy life with ten kiddos, LOL!

    hugs, friend!

Week 27 Update

Hello fellow internet peoples.  Decided to give a HD video update for the beginning of my third trimester.  (WE SO EXCITED!)  It was a ton of fun to make, this time we were at home in Chicago.  Erick had a bunch of lighting equipment after all the interviews he did with the chicago school councils, so before he had to ship them back we took full advantage ;)  I'm learning more about codec and h.264 and prores 422 and although it makes absolutely no sense to me, maybe it will be useful knowledge in the future.  What do I know? It was obviously a very gesture laden, emotional, 10 minute interview.  I hope you all enjoy it.  It really is longer than I expected but instead of completely chopping it up, I decided to leave it how it is.  It's pure, natural, pregnant-y goodness of brain farts, odd humor, and searching for the right words.  If you make it to the end, remind me to give you a gold star or something.  I'll do it. ** A ...

bump : week 23

The sub-zero weather has kept us indoors, but it hasn't kept us from having the most amount of fun possible.  I've been enjoying hot cups of tea served with teaspoons of sugar and condensed milk, curling up with my favorite blanket and enjoying the tap-tap, nudge-nudge of the littlest De La Rosa.  Though I find myself playing catch up yet again (I'm 24 weeks!) I'm not complaining in the least bit.  I've had this little family of mine all to myself for a full four days with no work, no emails, no agenda and no pressure.   Ahhhhh... happy winter celebration, little baby. PS- did you know Erick finally launched his website ?  It's up, it's responsive, and it's gorgeous. I'm a proud muma bear.
