Well, it happened again.. I knew it would.. Yet another newborn that I had the pleasure of photographing, and I fell in love w/ her… So sweet, cuddly, and full of newborn preciousness. <sigh> Miss S was a doll baby for her entire session.. Only briefly peeking here & there. What a sweetheart you have,...
I was excited to photograph this family and return the favor, since recently Rachael photographed my family too! (thanks again, pal!) The kiddos all did great, and the weather was nice.. Couldn’t ask for more! I was hoping “the peaches” aka triplets would warm up to me, and little did I know that I would...
Miss A wasn’t too sure about having her pictures done this time.. I think she wanted to play w/ big sister much more than do pictures It took some coaxing, but sure enough, w/ a little silliness (on my part) she showed me those great smiles I know she has..
This little sweetie pie was all sorts of serious at the start her session.. I knew, however, that she really does have this expressive little grin in her.. We pulled out ALL the tricks, and sure enough.. We got it! Thanks to her mama & daddy for helping out too! LOoooooooove this one!.. And proof...
To say I sorta fell in love w/ this little guy last night would be an understatement.. He is the newborn son of my bestest friend & they long awaited for his arrival.. He is just perfect in every way. I’m not sure what pep talk they gave him, pre-session, but it worked.. He slept...
These little fellas crack me up.. Never a dull moment, but they are oh so sweet. Full of giggles, full of life.. I love watching their growing relationship as brothers & best of pals.. Always a pleasure, A family boys! *Sugar may or may not have been consumed during the duration of this portrait session*...
These kiddos were so super sweet.. I’m sure you can tell my their genuine smiles! Miss M was just as charming as she was last year when I saw her for her two year portraits.. Now at three, she can even spell her first AND last name.. Very impressive! And her baby brother had his...
Miss baby S is part of the “Baby’s 1st Year” plan… I love watching babies’ 1st year.. It’s still hard to believe that this little cutie is 6 months old already.. Seems like just yesterday when I photographed her as a newborn, and again at 3 months. So full of lit up smiles; I LOVE...
The A family wanted to use their parent’s farm for their portrait session.. I thought it was a great idea, and I love when people incorporate places & settings that are personal to them. The boys had a great time, just as if it were any other day at grandma & grandpa’s farm.. Well, aside...
Let me introduce you to Mr. serious… or I mean, baby C.. I think there something about a camera that often has hidden code to babies that says “Now, she holds this up, show her your most serious faces”.. Lucky for us, babies are too sweet regardless.. You’re not foolin’ me, baby C, I know...
This little guy has been coming to see me for portraits from his very beginning.. It’s been such a joy watching him go from newborn baby to full blow toddler.. I’m trying to figure out at what point he stops getting more & more cute each time I see him! lol He’s fast now, but...
The F family could not be any sweeter! I love seeing them, and I’m pretty sure at a quick glance, you can hear Mr.A’s laughs & giggles through the portraits.. hehe.. So fun! Happy 2nd birthday, A! A is super into trains right now, so I think it’s great to incorporate into his 2 year...
I was so excited to hear that baby A had made her arrival into the world.. When baby A came for her session, she was so excited & entertained by what was going on, she didn’t want to sleep! lol This is the part where I personally feel spoiled, because while I’m working, I get...
Sometimes babies are super smiley, laughing, cooing, and happy to have their portraits done.. However, other times, they just think it’s important to show a more stoic side. Of which, is often just as sweet as the smiles.. Take for example, 6 month old baby C below. He went the stoic route, but didn’t lack...
It’s hard to believe we are 9 months into baby R’s “Baby’s 1st Year” plan.. I absolutely love seeing babies throughout their first year.. It’s quite amazing to see them change so much.. Baby R has been a charmer since his newborn session, and didn’t disappoint for his 9 month Such a beautiful family…
