Hello! I'm Joanna, author of this photo journal. My husband, Mark, and I are professional photographers in Asheville, North Carolina. The name of our company, Tuesday's Frog, is based on an almost-wordless children's book about mischievous frogs that go flying on lily pads one night. We love this book because the illustrations are truly the heart of the story. Speaking of mischievous, Cole & Harper are our children, and frequent, though not always willing, photography subjects. Here you'll find not only the stories of our everyday lives, but of those we've photographed in our capacity as professional photographers as well. Please feel free to browse the links above, check out the archives at the bottom of the journal for more photo stories, or subscribe and receive email updates of all our antics. Enjoy!

Izzy @ 14 months | Greenville baby photographer
Be still my heart...she's growing up, too! This is Miss Isabel...otherwise knows as Izzy. (How I love those 2 front teeth, and that grin!)
Could she be more scrumptious?
Workin' the bow...
Tell me, what do one-year-olds like more than to be in motion?
...kisses from Daddy, of course!
Thank you SO much, Emily, Jeff, and Isabel, for allowing me to be a part of your lives this past year! It has been such a treat to get to know Izzy Bee and see her learn & grow! and walk! Ooh, have fun with the walking!
Oh my goodness, my baby's all grown up! Okay, okay, she's not really mine. She is plum adorable, though, and settled right into that chair for me...
...for about 2 seconds, and then we were off!
I love this one...Catherine is walking very well on her own but sometimes it's nice to know that mom's still there.
I love seeing her personality develop! Check out her beautiful birthday dress...and I love that bow, too (and the fact that she has enough hair now to wear bows!)
A little glimpse at those gorgeous lashes....(please note the green frog as well!)
Thank you so, so much, Caroline & John, for sharing Catherine with me since the very beginning. It has been such a honor to document her very first year in this world and to know the 3 of you!
Jeepers these babies grow up quickly! You might remember Isabel...would you believe she's 9 months old already? How I love that bow...and those dark eyes!
Happy as can be in her crib! I love how babies are so comfortable on their own turf!
...and the rest of Isabel's sweet family, also known as her hair stylists, wardrobe/diaper changers, food providers, and entertainment during the photo session. No wonder Emily (Isabel's mom) mentioned that they all took a 2-hour nap after I left! This baby stuff is hard work!
Sweet, happy, AND she likes stripes - now that's my kinda girl! If you look closely, you'll see 2 little teeth popping out at the bottom of her mouth.
You've actually already "met" Catherine when she was nine days old. It is such a privilege to be able to document her growth! I can't believe she's so grown up already!
She's also the perfect pumpkin hat model, if you ask me.
I hung out at the park with Charlie yesterday, and he gave me a run for my money! Everybody knows grass and leaves and birthday cake are much more interesting than a camera!
So he had to be conned into smiling - a little assistance from Daddy did the trick!
Meet Isabel - longed for, loved, and oh-so-adorable! At 13 weeks she is very expressive and vocal. Her parents call her Chopstick because she loves to smile (and laugh) when they read from the takeout menu. Hee! She made me giggle!
