So we've had the excitement of this first loose tooth over the past couple weeks and I, of course, have video of her showing me the first wiggle. She wakes up every morning and wiggles it for me and asks "Did you forget about my tooth?"
Her Dad told her "No! Don't pull it out! You'll grow up!!" and she would answer "Daaaaad. I'm not going to grow all the way up yet."
She has been waiting so long, she's turning 7 next month and insists that ALL of her friends have already lost at least ONE tooth! I am usually a master extractor but she was really, really super scared about the whole thing. And she's usually my daredevil, thrill seeker, no-fear baby. But with this experience, the unknown paralyzed her with fear.
My son and I would always be determined and really go for it. She was different and approached it in the way she does so many things -- by herself. She doesn't like to be shown what to do, how to read or try new things. You have to show her and walk away. And I always know she'll do it. This time I figured out that maybe a hand held mirror might help take the fear out and it did. She went to her room with her brother and held the mirror and just wrangled it right out. The crying stopped and she was focused and was going to get that tooth out. And that was that.
So today I'm posting this of her losing her first tooth. I'm trying to savor it and not think too much about how soon her firsts will be things like first kisses (GAH!), driving a car and going on trips without us. Today I'm just going to enjoy her elation about the toof and the groovy glitter and cash left by the Tooth Fairy.

The packages are detailed in the next blog entry (scroll down to see or click here)
Here's all you have to do to enter:
Get FIVE (or more!) of your parental-unit Facebook friends to "LIKE" the Birdznest Photography Facebook Page. I will give you one drawing chance for every five of your friends who "like" the FB page. 20 friends = 4 chances. Please be cool and don't send people you don't think would be interested in the photography page. I don't like posting for people who aren't interested (and neither do they).
Email me the names of your friends who joined the club (just names, I don't need emails or anything). Tell them they can do the same thing for a chance to win. Any Birdznest FB fan can join in the contest. But you need to be done and send me the email by 5:00PM tomorrow when I will do the drawing! GOOD LUCK! SoCal residents only.
I love photography in general and decorate it around my house. I hope I am not too late to join this. Thanks for the post

One Week Only!! Must order Noon PST on Thursday, June 17 to receive your REALLY COOL package by Friday or Saturday. This offer is good for SoCal clients only, sorry.
So if you are one of those people who already have a thoughtful, meaningful Father's Day gift all wrapped and ready to go, I sincerely applaud you. And I am in awe of you, quite frankly. For the rest of us mere mortal moms, we're probably scrambling with end-of-school-year madness or for those with very little birds in the nest -- your major accomplishment today might just be getting a shower. Either way, I'll make it so easy for you.
So, in the interest of simplicity and AWESOMENESS, I am offering two packages to address both sentimentality and a love of electronic gadgets. The first one is a mini package (and I have never, ever offered a mini-package.) But I know that Father's Day budgets are not as big as some other holidays and it'd be nice to get Dad something this groovy. The other one is a full session with a majorly cool digital gift give-away.
Both package will be beautifully wrapped and ready to give and delivered to your home in time for Father's Day!
DAD'S DAY MINI $250
Includes one 30-minute mini session in Laurel Canyon at my home studio or one of the many beautiful spots around the canyon. (Add $50 if I come to come to you)
- Digital photo keychain, loaded with 5-10 edited images from your session
- online digital proofing album
- One 8x10 and one 5x7 desk print for Dad's home or office
- One 8-wallet set, for more bragging
- Add an iPhone slideshow for $50
DAD'S DAY PACKAGE W/DIGITAL FRAME & SLIDESHOW - $450
Includes a full family photo session 1-3 hrs for up to 5 family members at your home or a location of your choice.
- 7" Digital photo frame that also plays video and music!!
Oh Dad is going to LOVE this. There's a clock feature, a mosaic feature, video & sound and it takes all kinds of cards from your camera or can be loaded from the computer. After your session, this frame will be loaded with a custom slideshow set to music as well as a still slideshow with up to 20 images from your session. The frame can be used to enjoy all your own personal photos and videos too and it is really beautiful and easy to use. This goody alone & slideshow package are a $300+ value and I'm throwin' them in with my regular session fee for all the fantabulous Dads in SoCal.
- Personal proofing session 2 weeks after your session & online gallery
- One 8x10 and one 5x7 desk print for Dad's home or office
- One 8-wallet set, for more bragging
- Add an iPhone slideshow or Digital Keychain w/pix for $50

Hey Rob, long time no see! I hope you're digging Hollyweird :-)
I like the pic of the lil' baby on the sofa? Don't know the proper name of what the child is lying on. I did have one question though - did you wash out the windows on purpose to put focus on the baby? I really like it! Nice pics all over the site ;-)
Huggs,
Scott
(07.07.10)@ Dave - Nice Schmurdleboppper on Declan's(?) arm!
(07.07.10)Sorry for the delayed reply - w/regard to the windows: when you expose for the darker front part (i also used a bounce in front of baby), the windows wash out all by themselves. If I exposed for the windows, you'd see all kinds of trees, houses, cars -- the effect def would not be the same.
