a peek behind the scenes

September 8th, 2010

bf-and-blues

Our September–October issue is out (still available only in digital format, but print is coming, we promise!), and here’s a sneak peek at one of my favorite photos in the issue.

This one, to accompany an article on how breastfeeding helps fight postpartum depression, was taken by Laura Siebert—who is rapidly becoming one of my favorite photographers to work with. She’s got a great eye, is seemingly unflappable under stress, has a delicious sense of humor, and consistently creates top-quality photos. What more could an art director ask? (You may well have seen her work: she has been responsible for three of our last four covers!)

To see more of Laura’s work, please visit her sites here and here.

P.S. I don’t know if I’m allowed to say this, but the dad, in addition to being a sweet attachment-parenting proponent, is also a famous fighter in the UFC world!

behind the scenes at issue 160

May 12th, 2010

cloth-diaper-spread2 Who doesn’t love a good behind-the- scenes photo?
A peek behind the curtain that reveals the illusion you hadn’t exactly thought of as illusion.

So here’s one. The spread at right is from Jennifer Margulis‘s article on cloth diapers which appears in our current issue. The photo was shot by Denver-area photographer and mother of two, Laura Siebert.

Here’s how it looked from the
behind-the-scenesshootperspective of Julie Ekstrom from Rumparooz, who was at the shoot with Laura (showed up with an armful of cloth diapers. That’s a Ruparooz nine-month-old Manny is wearing.).

And here (below) is a favorite of mine from that same shoot: Laura Siebert in Photographer Mode, letting nothing slow her down, not even Julie’s one-year-old son, Sebastian—while proving a truth I babywranglerdiscovered several years ago:

Mother–photographers are among the world’s finest multitaskers.

laura-siebertJust discovered Laura Siebert’s blog, CV1-159 where she says nice things about us and gives some backstory on a couple of the photos she shot for the huge article on cloth diapers which appears in our May-June issue.

Coincidentally, Laura also shot our March-April cover. You can see more of her gorgeous photos here.

new month, new issue

March 1st, 2010

CV1-159Happy March—or, as we say around here, Rabbit!

And with the new month comes a new issue: Mothering March–April 2010 is now on the stands. For the cover, St. Louis Photographer Laura Siebert snapped this photo of two-and-a-half-year-old Merus Kennedy playing peekaboo with a down comforter in Siebert’s St. Louis studio. Check out more of Siebert’s  here.
