henry owen close-ups
Posted in Henry on December 31st, 2004 by Todd – 1 CommentHenry is a remakably agreeable subject when it comes to photography. He tirelessly poses for the camera and is amenable to trying new things and strange poses. He’s not at all shy and doesn’t mind me getting up close to his face.

Posted in Henry on December 31st, 2004 by Todd – 1 CommentI can’t even begin to describe just how happy I am with how this picture turned out. So proud, in fact, that I’m just going to post it now and worry with the rest later. (Click for the larger version.)
northcutt christmas 2004
Posted in Photos on December 27th, 2004 by Todd – 1 CommentOur Christmas morning started early this year. After putting Henry down from a feeding and crawling into bed at 6:30, I heard thunderous footfalls headed towards our room.
The door flew open (her new talent is opening doors) and there stood Emma Grace.
“Daddy, I’m awake!”
It was in the cutest, sing-song voice you ever heard.
“Daaaaaaa-deeeee, I’m awaaaa-aake.”
Apparently, Daddy was going to be, too.

Who is this Billy Reuben character, anyway? And why is he so interested in my son? (I kid, I kid.) Looks like “tip-top” shape was a little bit of an overstatement.
henry’s 2nd and 3rd days
Posted in Henry on December 23rd, 2004 by Todd – 2 CommentsWe brought Mr. Henry Owen home from the hospital today (Thursday). Despite being 5 weeks early, he is in tip-top shape according to the docs. Still a scrawny 5 lbs, of course, but otherwise doing fine.

Less than 24 hours later and we are the proud new parents of Henry Owen Northcutt. Born at 4:59 PM on December 21st, 2004 Henry weighed in at a trim 5 pounds, 2 ounces and measured 16.5 inches tall.

Marla’s water broke at 12:30 AM this morning. We were admitted to Mission Hospital at about 1:30 AM. She’s resting fine at the hospital now and we’re waiting on the fun (labor) to begin.
macrotastic lemon bars
Posted in Photos on December 19th, 2004 by Todd – 3 Comments
I treated myself to a few new lenses a few weeks ago, one of which was a macro lens that I’d been wanting for ages. In the winter, of course, all the bugs are dead, the spiders have gone away and there are no flowers to speak of. What’s a guy to do with his new toy?
Why capture his wife making delicious treats, of course!
We had a few lemons left on my scraggly looking tree so Marla decided to put them to good use in the form of scrumptious lemon bars. The tree is an “Improved Meyer” and is much sweeter and less acidic than the Lisbon lemons you get in the store. Yummy, yummy stuff!
Marla was, as always, very patient with me as I circled around her with the camera lens just inches from the ingredients.
“Wait, wait… let me pre-focus.”
“Darn. I missed it. Do you need more eggs? You can add one more, right?”
“Oh, wait! Don’t pour that in yet!”
Focusing…
“OK, now you can pour the batter in.”
Marla later remarked that the hardest and most time consuming part of the process was putting up with me.
ign christmas party 2004
Posted in Photos on December 17th, 2004 by Todd – 2 CommentsWe had ourselves a grand old time at the IGN Christmas Party last night. I was the lone photographer since Silverdawn moved up North. I had to, you know, represent or something. I was pretty pleased with the way most of them turned out.
