This was sweet Isabella almost one year ago…
And, look at this sweet baby girl now! She’s One!
Isabella is already walking and quite the busy little girl! But, so very beautiful and very loved! Her big brother and sister were able to come along, at the last minute due to a reschedule, so we grabbed a few with them as well. It was a fun morning with a fun family. Happy Birthday, Isabella!!
When I photographed Jeffrey last year, I thought that he was just the cutest little boy with an amazing little grin and beautiful eyes! Now, this sweet boy has a baby brother…little Ethan…who is just as darling as his big brother! This session could not have gone much better and the boys were great for the session. I love the little “sitting and smiling” age…just my favorite baby age to photograph I’d say! Enjoy this little sneak peak of Ethan and Jeffrey-adorableness all around!
Here’s another little sweetie who has quickly gone from this:
To this beautiful and happy girl!
Brooke is such a cutie pie! Poor baby girl was struggling yesterday with some teething issues, but bless her heart she pulled through great considering all she really wanted to be doing was gnaw on her hands or have her pacifier! 🙂 She brought along her so adorable big brother, George, as well as her Mom and Dad for the photo session. I love our results and so enjoyed working with this wonderful family again. I can’t believe that she’ll be one in just a few short months! Enjoy the cuteness of Brooke and family!
Happy with Daddy! 🙂
Lydia celebrated her first birthday in February, and this morning I had the fun job of meeting with her and her parents to mark the occasion with some portraits! Lydia was SO good for me. I fell in love with her precious little grin and those sweet cheeks. They just make you smile! She even thought I was funny, which is always a plus! 😉 It was a beautiful morning and a beautiful opportunity to capture a sweet little girl on her 1st birthday. I hope you all enjoy your sneak peek. LOTS more to come! 🙂
This week I had the joy of photographing little 4-month-old Lily, along with her proud big sister, Brianna and very beautiful Momma. Lily is a new member of our Little Gifts Newborn Club, so you will be seeing her sweet face several times this year! 🙂 YAY! The backdrop of our session could not have been much better. We utilized the burst of early Spring color at the Botanic Gardens and it was just a perfect accent to these beautiful girls! I am looking forward to watching you grow, sweet Lily! 🙂
My sweet, sweet little nephew turned one in late January! Jodie and I finally found a free day for us to meet up and photograph this milestone in little Graham’s life. At least that’s what we thought we were going to do. Actually, we instead saw a bunch of this…
And this…
Haha!! This is one very B.U.S.Y. little guy!! 🙂 But, he is just ooooohhh so very sweet and lovable and gives the best little hugs and grins…when you can catch him! So in between a lot of photographs that looked much like those first two, we managed to capture some magic and a wonderful glimpse into Graham at 13 months old! Love how big he looks, but it kinda breaks my heart, too! He’s so little right now, but those sweet little curls and long eyelashes remind me of a little boy that lives in my household that is almost 11! I swear it was just yesterday that it was him that was this age! Aunt Julie loves you Grahammers! Happy Birthday!
Look at this big guy! He has gone from this:
To this in just a matter of a few short months! I know if it is happening fast to me it must be moving at lightning speed for his Mom and Dad!
One of the great things about working with a family for several years is that we learn to trust one another. When Brooks’ mom asked me if I’d be willing to do his Sit ‘n’ Smile session outdoors in January, I must admit that I was a little worried. But, at the same time I knew that his Mom would show up in something perfect for the season and absolutely adorable. And, thanks to some unseasonably warmer weather this January, the temperatures weren’t nearly as bad as they could have been. Still quite chilly and windy, but not intolerable. Brooks and big brother, Cohen, did an awesome job toughing it out in the cold winter day and rocked their session. I just love this family and hope that they are as pleased with our winter results as I was! 🙂 Enjoy!
And, my favorite shot of the day! Just love these little giggle grins!
Wow! What an exciting time for my sweet friends Katie and Jeremy! They just welcomed their fourth child, little Beau, into their family just about two weeks ago. I have had the joy of photographing Katie’s first two children on their 2-year-old birthdays in their little white outfits. This year, it was Mr.Hampton’s turn.
 
So after we finished up with little Hamp, we made our best attempt at a new family photo! I just love this family so much and couldn’t be happier for them. Congratulations to all of you! I just know there are so many fun memories to be made with your fun family of four! 🙂
It’s almost Christmas time and when thinking of titles for this blog post about two sisters and their families, I immediately thought of that song from the movie “White Christmas” entitled “Sisters”! Love that song as it makes me smile! Just like these two families make me smile, too. I had the pleasure of photographing two sisters and their families this weekend at their parents fantastic home! Seriously a photographer’s dream. And it didn’t hurt that the families were just sweet, charming and gorgeous! First up for the day was my first time to photograph little 8-month-old Sophie! So petite and dainty and stinkin’ adorable. I loved her sweet smile! And, add in her beautiful mom and dad and you get magic! 🙂
And once I finished with the first gorgeous family, the second beautiful family arrived with Sophie’s cousins Kaitlyn and A.J. We quickly snapped a few of the three cousins together. It’s pretty amazing that these two little baby cousins are only 2.5 weeks apart! Love it! 🙂
I last photographed Kaitlyn and A.J. when little A.J. was a newborn. I cannot believe what a big boy he has become! I just love this fun family and always enjoy spending time with them. I love the colors in their photos and am so very happy with the results. Love!! 🙂
 
When I was a little girl, I remember at family functions my Grandmother would pause and look around the room at our big family. She would then look over at my Grandfather and say something along the lines of “Honey, will you look at what we have done?” She was so proud of all of us and she loved that it all started just because her and my grandfather fell in love. I couldn’t help but to think of that when I was photographing this family last week. All because these two right here fell in love:
All of this happened! I know that they are so VERY proud of their family!
I had such a wonderful time hanging out with all of them. You’ll probably recognize my little friends Matthew and Lainey and their awesome parents. I so enjoyed getting to meet the rest of the “T” family the other night. Truly some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. They just laughed and had fun together! Can’t ask for anything more than that. I hope you all love your little sneak peak. So many more great ones to come! 🙂
A few with the entire bunch:
Mothers and Daughters…
Kayleigh and Jackson…
And, my sweeties Matthew and Lainey…
Such a lovely family…have I said that yet? 🙂 Thanks, y’all!
