Happy 2nd Birthday, Mom*tog!
Mom*tog all started because of this guy.
It started as a place where I could combine two of the things I love the most – photography and Brayden. A place where I could help other moms take great pictures of their own kids and connect with moms who, like me, do both the full time mom and run their own business thing.
I love the relationships I’ve made here. Thank YOU for making Mom*tog everything it has become in the last 2 years! Thank you for your support, your love, and your encouragement. I hope I was able to provide a little bit of the same for you.
This year I want to focus on making Mom*tog more interactive. A place where we can all share our photos and get to know one another. It’s going to be fun!
But, the thing I’m most excited for this year…
Having a new baby to take pictures of! Baby Bittel #2 coming this August!



























Congratulations on baby number 2! That is so exciting!
I absolutely adore your photos! They are amazing! Can’t wait to see what you will have in store now!
I love the new site and CONGRATS on your pregnancy! Thank you for all that you do and the info you share. I love your work!
Congratulations! I’m due with Baby B (aka #2) August 2nd. So happy for you guys!!

Wow – I can’t believe it’s been 2 years. I’ve been here since the beginning. Thank you for sharing your world with us. I have enjoyed it so much, and I have found a passion for photography that has made my heart sing.

Congratulations all the way from the east coast. As Anna Quindlen says in her essays that accompany Nick Kelsh’s photos in “Siblings,” “The best gift I ever gave my child was a sibling.” (Or something very close to that.) This baby is a gift to you, to Brayden, and through your photography, will even be a gift of inspiration to us, your readers.
Ahhh! I’m excited! Congratulations…what a fun way to announce it…..So happy for you

Super cute pictures and post. And oh, congrats on the wee one on the way. You are a great mom, I can tell. I have four boys, we moms can sniff out a good mom a mile away.
Congrats!!!
Congrats on baby #2!!
So excited for you and your family, Drew! Braydon is going to make such a great big brother.
Awwww….congrats!
Congratulations!!!! How exciting! It is so precious to watch your kids interact with a sibling–you will love it! Thanks for all your hard work on this blog–it has certainly helped and inspired this very non-professional mom to take more (and, I hope, better) pictures of my kids. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, ideas, and incredible talents!

Sooooo So So beautiful!!!
I would so love to be able to do the 1st and 3rd pic with my son and balloons. But I bet the weather has to be just perfect for that, huh? Was it difficult for you to keep the balloons from tangling and twisting around each other? How was the temp that day (if you remember) chilly, warm, hot, etc? I ask because I always assumed that helium filled balloons won’t float very well when they’re outside in the heat.
OMG, I really love these pics
