Mistral is amazing. She and her husband are directors at New England Science and Sailing (NESS) in Stonington, CT and keep hours that I could barely have kept up with when I was in college. They have an island rescue mutt, Ninga, who is about as high up on my list of favorite pups as one can be without being my own dog. They are also expecting a new human member of the family very soon.

In addition to being one of the hardest working women I know, Mistral is beautiful, talented, creative, a great cook, surfer, fire spinner, and has a really cool Australian accent.

About a month ago I had a wonderful maternity session with Mistral a family session with Mistral, Mike and Ninga. I have been bouncing around the globe and slacking on my blog posts since then and realized it was high time for a new photo feature.

Here it is. Pure radiance.
