I am not sure that all new parents find themselves in this situation, but Brian and I have been forced to realize over the past few days that Brian & Ash has, without our intentions, turned into a baby blog. We are obsessed with our son. Before Elliott, we never knew before that rolling over could be such a glorious feat.

We know quite a few of you have started following us during our pregnancy (and because of our pregnancy), so we will keep everyone updated on Elliott's continued growth and development. But, alas, there are other stories that must be told as well.

Today's post is dedicated to one of my very first muses and only sister, Beth, who has been attending her first graduate classes at the American Film Institute this week. Beth is the reason I ventured up to Alaska before I decided to move here, and she is also the reason that I initially fell in love with photography. (Beth will tell you that we spent more days as teens making and developing photos of each other than of anyone else.)

Before she left, Beth and I had one last afternoon-long photoshoot to tide us over until we see each other again. Beth, Alaska (and I) will miss you, but we are so proud of you and can't wait to see what stories you will tell over the coming years.
