the ribe family
Another squishy delicious newborn in a recent string of new babies.
We utilized every photographic inch of their home and yard and came out with some pretty great shots. But with a good looking bunch like this, how could you go wrong?
Of course, the “original baby” had to be in on the action too!
Camoflaged baby on the left.
And I was so happy because I finally got to use my nest!! I think he rather enjoyed being outside and naked in the beautiful, warm weather with a little breeze.
Being outside made his blue eyes really blue. It also caused other things to happen. Look closely at the picture on the left.
A little before and after.
The mural was painted by his aunt. So glad we worked it into a shot!
Look…my eyes are as big as the dots on the sheet!
Love this one, but couldn’t decide between color and black & white.

some bsquared business
So very much going on around here, trying to keep everyone in the loop.
1. The bsquared calendar for September- December is officially open for booking. You can find it here: http://www.bsquaredphotography.net/?page_id=3635. It has been the case that these dates book like wildfire, so if you are interested in a shoot, please book as soon as possible so you don’t miss out. First come, first served.
At this point, I will not be booking more times & dates then are currently listed on the calendar. I may open up some additional dates and times, but I am not promising that will be the case.
I will start a waiting list once (if) the current calendar fills up. I fit in almost everyone last year and hope to do the same this year, but the client list is growing. So, please book as soon as possible to lock in your spot.
2. This year all photos that are needed for the holidays must be taken by Monday 11/30. I will be booking very few shoots in December, but any pictures taken in December will not be available until mid to late January. Sorry, but no exceptions. Seriously.
3. Holiday cards- the 2009 templates will be up on the blog in August. (ok, can you even believe we are talking about holiday cards in July?) I’ll have lots of new and varied cards to choose from. All holiday card orders must be in by Monday, December 7th in order to ensure holiday delivery by December 15th. Again, no exceptions.
4. I have two last minute openings for this Sunday, July 19th. One at 3pm, one at 6pm. Email me at bbeyrer1@optonline.net if you are interested.
5. I have 7 shoots yet to be edited, plus the 9 shoots currently booked for the remainder of July. So even though I’ll be ‘off’ in August, I’m not really going to be so off at all.
Edited to Add 6. Our family will be away on vacation in early August. This means two things- One, anyone waiting for pictures: I will edit them as soon as I can, so please just bear with me. I will be working on orders and edits during August, just not while away. And two- bsquared will be travelling to the following locations: Cleveland, Cinncinatti, Pittsburgh, and Detroit. If you are in one of those places and are interested in a shoot, please email me at bbeyrer1@optonline.net and we’ll see if we can work it out.
That’s all for now. I think. I’m going to leave this post up for a few days but expect a new one on Monday. Have a great weekend, everyone.

they came, they swam, they stayed over
Our very good friends (once from town, now from Michigan) were here for their annual visit with their family and we got our day too. We spent all day yesterday together, going to the beach, watching J & P play in an away baseball game, having sushi and italian, and the kids all slept stayed over.
This year’s transition period (the boys see eachother once a year and there’s always that period of awkwardness when they first get together) was the shortest we’ve ever seen. Actually, it wasn’t there at all. Jack and Connor have been exchanging letters recently and I think that’s probably helped. They were all so excited to see eachother and got right into playing. Even Timmy and Katie jumped right in- it was like they saw eachother last week, not last summer.
My gorgeous goddaughter! Love her. I even got to comb her hair (she said I did a good job) and got unsolicited hugs.
The Z kids all spent the night here. And honestly, I couldn’t believe they stayed up as late as they did. After my boys had been up late 2x during the week, they spent the day in the ocean and the pool and played baseball or ran around in the park, I thought they would crash and hard. Nope. The little ones (Katie slept in Timmy’s room- that was Timmy’s first sleepover) stayed up until 11:30pm and the big kids were up until 12. It probably would’ve been later if I hadn’t gone up there and told them it was enough. Man, that was a lot of giggling.
And I was informed that they were all up between 6:30 and 7am this morning. Can you say bedtime by 8 tonight??
We had a great visit and I’m happy to report that we will be seeing the Z family again in 3 weeks, but this time on their turf in Michigan.

garrett & susan: the day after
First off, it’s not really the day after. It was more like two weeks after the wedding that we went and did a trash the dress shoot (without actually trashing the dress though, so no worries there). They had just gotten back from their honeymoon, still all tan and relaxed.
Ok, this rates up there with one of the best shoots. Ever.
First stop, the refurbished Nunley’s Carousel. Ahh- yummy much? Do you know that it goes pretty fast, especially when you aren’t holding on to anything cause you need both hands on your camera? (please excuse the vast number of pictures here…they were all SO awesome, I couldn’t narrow it down)
Then on to a thousand delicious little locations all around that area.
Was so happy I found a shopping cart- and even moreso that Susan was all game to hop in! Dosen’t she look like she’s in a bubble bath?
Love it all! Beautiful bride.
She’s a nurse, he is manager at the camera store I live at work with. Had to make sure that was represented.
Thanks for hanging with me again for lots more pictures. Did I mention that I LOVED this shoot?? To see all the images, please click HERE.

the abc gala
When I was asked by Tiffany to take pictures for the Atlantic Beach Club opening Gala I was really excited. I had taken pictures at ABC a few times now (including Tiffany’s son’s First Communion) and was looking forward to a wonderful evening. Which it was. Except for the bad weather, it was a great night.
Everything was beautifully decorated.
Ran into many friends (and friends of friends) over the course of the evening which is always fun and makes taking pictures all the easier.
A big thank you to Tiffany for asking me to document the evening, Annie for coordinating everything for me and always being on top of things for the shoot, and to Sue for coming along and helping out with some pictures. You ladies are the best and made my job even easier.
Some special recognition for the longest club members.
And some dancing.
