Today’s video winner is someone near and dear to me. Gina Zeidler of Minneapolis is a professional photographer that tagged along with Natalie Norton, who photographed our family last year. She was sneaky enough to get some video while Natalie was shooting and then made the most darling little video that I will treasure forever – and we actually shared the video with friends and family last year in lieu of printed Christmas cards for a change of pace (so liberating to do one less project actually).
Hello, lucky us. Natalie and Gina both documenting our family for a couple hours? Dreamy. And more importantly, these are 2 rare gems in the world. Giant hearts. Insanely talented. Devoted to doing good in the world. I love them.
So back to the video … Gina made this little number of Miss Emily Ley just being with her sweet baby. And what’s even more fun is that I’ve become familiar with Emily through social media and totally dig what she does and how she has built her brand (I love her little video on the home page). So I apologize in advance … but if you didn’t already know these gals, you now have 2 photographers that you’ll want to photograph your family and you’ll have a whole collection of planners, stationery, and accessories that you’ll want to buy. ; )
This is called Sleep Baby. A minute and a half of pure preciousness. I know this comes during a time when so many of us have heavy hearts about the sweet children whose lives ended tragically last weekend in Newtown, CT. May this be motivation to get more video footage of our children … with our children.
Equipment used: Canon 5D Mark II and 35MM lens.

What precious moments. Truly images to treasure.
Love this one!!!!
LOVE. LOVE. LOVE.
so sweet.
a PL question…Becky, the black signature binder is no longer pictured with the binders on the product page. Before, it just said unavailable…does this mean it won’t be produced any longer? (please say no!) Thanks!
Yes, unfortuantely, this does mean that we will not get more in stock. Becky announced last month that she would be retiring these and the current 5 PL editions. We totally recommend WE R binders, and they carry a beautiful black binder.
Thanks for letting me know Brandi. So sad that I missed that announcement.
Oh my sweetness. Love. Ever since I moved to Minnesota a year ago I’ve wanted to have Gina do family photos for us… that’s my new goal for 2013! Nice work, Gina!
I love this! Such a sweet little laugh! Can you share the info for the song?
Yep girl!

Thanks!!
Precious. I just want to SQUEEZE that little baby!
oh…my heart just grew bigger! Thank you for the videos, each one is a jewel!
This has inspired me! My 5 year old grabs my phone and films herself singing and dancing EVERYDAY….from now on I will jump in and sing and dance with her! It won’t matter that my hair is up in a bun, or I have no makeup on, or that I’m in my sweats, or in the middle of cleaning the house, what matters is her laugh and smile when I join in to her mini concert.
Blessings from Ca.

More tears. So beautiful. So important to take those moments to just “be” with your babies, no matter how old they are.
Love this.
YES!!!! Most adorable as ever! Blessings all around.
This was so so sweet! Thank you for sharing such precious moments!
I could watch that all day. Just gorgeous.
So sweet.
