My Session with Leo

Leo is such a gorgeous baby. His skin is perfect and he was already so well behaved. He looked at the camera and posed for some of his shots, and then fell asleep the rest of the session. It was a great opportunity to move him around and get some beautiful naked baby shots.

I really loved this session. Mom and Dad are friends and it was a lot of fun to capture Leo's beginnings. I couldn't pick a favorite, so I just decided on my top eight proofs.

BIG BOY!!!!

I was so surprised when I walked into this family's home to take photos of their little 2 month boy. Instead of finding a little scrawny thing, I met chubby cheeked, double chinned Barry.

I LOVE babies with some meat on their bones, it reminds me of my own chubby child.
Barry was such a sweetheart and made the cutest faces.

I also was able to listen to his father sing the CHOO CHOO train song over and over to get Barry to smile. MAN- that song was stuck in my head on the wasy home.

I had to capture some of Barry's baby parts too. Look at them and you will see why.

COUSINS!!!!

OK- I have fallen SO BEHIND on my blog. I apologize to my clients that I did not include, but this spring has been NUTS. I am currently booked through the second week of JUNE.

Here are some pics of my sister's daughter Avery and my daughter Ellie at the Arboretum. They are such adorable kiddos and they make such a great pair!!! My favorite photo is the one of Avery crying and Ellie chewing on a stick. That's my girl!!!!

My Spring Giveaway

In January, I gave away a free session to announce my new website. This is the family that won. I was so pleased to have the opportunity to work with this family and hear about their touching adoption journey. They truly deserved the free session.

These kiddos were so loving and affectionate. I received a hug from each one at some point during the session. I was a complete stranger, and they each let me hold them and they played with me so openly. I loved it!!!! They each pulled at my heartstrings and I was so honored for the opportunity to capture this family for their parents.

THANK YOU!!!! This is a session that I will not forget!!!!

HOT MAMA!!!!

I LOVE maternity sessions!!!! I was MORE THAN happy to take these photos of our friends' Zoe and Steven and to commemorate their little baby boy on the way. Their home is so gorgeous and we were able to take some beautiful belly shots with some natural, window light.

Zoe was beaming during her session and enjoyed showing off her baby bump. I cannot wait for the arrival of their little boy too. Enjoy your SNEAK PEAK!!!!

All Smiles

This is the second time I have taken photos of Thomas. The first time he cried because he didn't like the click of my camera, but this time he was all smiles. His facial expressions were so mischevious and goofy. He was making me laugh while I was taking his photo and I was still laughing later while I was working on his photos. What a cutie!!!!
