Benjamin is Sitting and Smiling!

November 9, 2012

Love, love, love this little boy!! Oh, how I kept threatening to bring him and his adorable smile home with me yesterday! So stinkin’ cute! 🙂 I hadn’t seen Benjamin since he was just days old, and he stole my heart then…so you can just imagine how much fun he is now! All smiling and sitting up like a big boy! And a grin and giggle that is beyond cute. We had the best time photographing him in his home and around Downtown Memphis on a cool and beautiful Fall morning in Memphis. Thanks so much for a wonderful morning! I just loved our time together and hope that you love your sneak peek of your lil man! 🙂

I kid you not, this little cutie pie posed himself like this, we didn’t do a thing! I see a future model on our hands! 🙂

Seriously, can they be any cuter?

Lily is One!

November 6, 2012

I can hardly believe this sweet girl turned a year old on Sunday! It’s been such a fun year watching Miss Lily grow up from a little baby into a big girl. It was a joy to meet with her and her family in the lovely colors of Fall at the Botanic Gardens and celebrate a wonderful first year! Thanks for sharing your lovely girls with me! They are so sweet and beautiful! 🙂

Alice is Sitting and Smiling!

November 6, 2012

My sweet lil niece is getting so big so very quickly! She has stolen the hearts of our entire family, but especially those of her big sisters. We both found some time in our busy schedules a couple of weeks ago for a quick morning session of Alice, Olivia, and Lucy. I just love these sweet girls so very much, and I’m thrilled to get the opportunity to capture them “growing up” right before my eyes. Love you, girls! Sorry it took me so very long for your sneak peek! 🙂

Beautiful, big sis, Olivia…

My lil pretty Lucy Kate…

Look at this big girl, Alice Mae…

Love her looong eyelashes!

The looks on their faces just crack me up. Can you tell they are sisters? 🙂

Cooper is Sitting and Smiling!

November 2, 2012

Warning: Extreme Cuteness Alert!! Gerber Baby ahead…pinch-able cheeks and all! 🙂 Sweet lil Cooper is getting to be such a big boy! He is sitting and almost ready to crawl any minute. And, he is sooo cute, ya’ll, with a grin that’ll steal your heart! Love working with Cooper and Chase! So proud of big brother, Chase, too. He did such a good job at the session as well. A sweet family, precious boys, and a session full of smiles! A photographer can’t ask for much more than that, can I? Love it!

Mary Frances is Sitting and Smiling!

September 20, 2012

And, this little sweetheart is looking adorable! I just love the photos from her session that we did with her parents. There is such a love and warmth reflected and, to me, it is so easy to feel the love these three have for one another just by looking at these images. Mary Frances is a member of the Newborn Club, and I am so excited to watch her grow. This is a FUN family, and so full of love…not to mention, their little girl is a joy! Love photographing her growing up. Hope you guys enjoy the sneak peek. More to come soon!

Natalie and her family!

August 27, 2012

It’s been about 8 months since I have seen this beautiful girl…last time I saw her she was only days old! Now she is sitting, smiling, laughing and crawling everywhere! And, she is still absolutely gorgeous! We woke up on Saturday morning to an unanticipated rain shower, and so became the big question of my life as a photographer: cancel, reschedule or move ahead as planned?! It’s always so very hard to know what to do. Luckily, Natalie’s mom is super cool and flexible and was willing to move ahead since Natalie was bringing along her siblings who have busy lives of their own as a college sophomore, high school senior and an 8th grader! I’m so very glad we decided to work in the rain. Thank goodness for old cotton gins! You’d never know it from looking at these photos, but it was pouring down rain almost the entire time we were shooting! But, I love our results and this fun family for rolling with what we were dealt that day! So beautiful and such a fun time! 🙂

Love the colors and the love in these photos with Natalie’s family!

Brooks is One!

August 16, 2012

What a difference a year can make for two fun brothers! Here’s Brooks and Cohen 14 months ago:

And here they are today!

Love, love, love these two cute little guys! We had fun last night chasing them around and seeing their cute interactions with each other. And, their big eyes and sweet grins just melt my heart! I’m sad that yet another baby plan has come to an end for this fabulous little family. Thanks so much, Clark and Ashlee, for sharing your boys with me all these years! 🙂

Lily is Sitting and Smiling!

June 29, 2012

I cannot believe how big Miss Lily is getting! Last time I saw her in March, she could barely hold herself up as a little 3 month old. And, now…this sweet girl is going after it! Lily will be 8 months old next week and is already crawling and standing on her own! What a big girl! She brought along big sister, Brianna, again. What a joy to photograph these sweet girls and capture who they are at this moment in their lives. I love watching them grow! Thanks for sharing these sweet girls with me! 🙂

Ellie Grace, Jackson and Charlie!

June 25, 2012

This precious family has grown by one little person since the last time I photographed them! Meet Ellie Grace, Jackson and newest little man Charlie! I just love this family! They are full of joy and laughter and excitement! They had nothing but smiles all night long for me and we had such fun! You never know what you might get with three children this young, but these three did SO good! And, I truly think it was because they truly love one another so very much. Thanks for coming to see me again, guys! I hope you love what you see here…more to come! 🙂

Love this grin!!
