Andi is in the spotlight for this week's Fun Fact Friday, and it's a good one. Her favorite part of pizza is..wait for it..the "crizza" or..."creasa"??! Excuse me, what? Andi explains that it is the part of a slice of pizza right before the crust starts- so there's still a little bit of yummy doughy goodness! Her made up word (which we argue about the spelling: Kristin: "crizza" , Andi: "creasa") is now a new one in my vocabulary, so feel free...

When Stokes' mommy and daddy walked into my studio with this little bundle of joy, I thought surely I must have written down his age incorrectly. There was no way this big guy was only 6 weeks...
One of the very incredible things about my job is that I get to see children grow. I get to see families grow. I get to capture and document all of these changes for families to forever keep...
