Christmas Time

We had a great time this Christmas season. Dave and I spent a week in Charleston, SC over Christmas and spent time with my family. We hadn’t been all together since last Christmas so it was good to be together. I didn’t take too many photos of our week, but we did manage to take some nice family portraits in their sunny neighborhood. Have I mentioned how much I love …

Christmas Card 2013

2013 was a year of travels. We are blessed to have such amazing friends, families, and clients around the country and world. This year we decided to share 13 cities in 2013. We asked my brother Chris, a graphic designer, to help out with the card (you might remember his work from last year, see it here).  We wanted to share our experiences with everyone and knew that a card …

Thanksgiving 2013

Mmmm. That was Mom Baker’s scrumptious apple pie you just salivated over on the cover image. I just love Thanksgiving food. I hope you all had the chance to celebrate Thanksgiving with family and friends. Dave and I went to Western Pennsylvania to celebrate with his family for a long weekend. We spent a lot of time just hanging out together at home and playing with Duplos…lots of Duplos. Can …

California Dreaming

Over the summer I flew to San Diego, California to visit my sister, Emily while her husband was deployed (but he came home this week!!).

I’d never been to Charleston, but  I have heard so much about the history, architecture, and food. Visiting downtown Charleston truly is like stepping back …

We have decided to use Baker Stories as a place to chronicle our personal stories and blog about our life. This site will also include our blog posts from my photography business and projects we are working on. So, if for some reason …

Our New Nephew Owen

We have a new baby nephew! Meet Owen Baker. These photos were actually taken a few weeks ago when we met Owen for the first time, but we thought we’d  take some time to introduce you. I am sure Owen will be making about as many appearances in my photos as his older sister, Adelaide, so get used to this sweet face!

In the Navy

Best of luck to our new Brother-in-Law, Josh as he starts deployment. He and my little sister, Emily were married a couple of weeks ago and we are so happy to have Josh as part of our family. We would appreciate your prayers for both their new marriage during their time apart and safety during his deployment. Josh, we couldn’t be prouder of your sacrifice and service for our country. …
