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!

Brooke is one!

November 1, 2012

I can hardly believe this beautiful little girl is ONE!! She actually turned one in August, but this smart mom waited a bit so that we could coordinate some photos with big brother as well to use for Christmas Cards. We met up at Brooke’s home and had the best time playing and shooting in their yard, on their steps, and in Brooke’s room. I am in L.O.V.E. with her bedroom. We did photos there for her newborn session and finished up in there today. Beautiful light! A wonderful place to use to bookend Brooke’s first year! Thanks so much for sharing your sweet children with me this past year! 🙂

Here is Brooke a year ago and today! Love it!

Someone sure loves her bunny! Awww…

And some with big brother, George!

Welcome, Andrew!

October 26, 2012

Oh sweet baby boy, Andrew! Welcome to the world and welcome to a beautiful family! This precious baby boy was an angel for his newborn session yesterday. At only six-days-new, it was my absolute joy to work with this precious family again. I photographed big sister, Emily, several months ago and now she seems like such a big girl. Andrew is a member of our Newborn Club, so their sweet faces will be gracing my camera lens for the next year and I couldn’t be more thrilled. Truly, such an incredibly kind and precious little family. SO happy for ya’ll! 🙂 Enjoy!

Love this one because it is special. This blanket was made by Andrew’s great-grandmother. How special! 🙂

How beautiful are these babies, ya’ll? I mean, seriously…

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!

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! 🙂

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! 🙂

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! 🙂

Sweet little Lily!

March 9, 2012

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! 🙂

Welcome, Cooper!

March 6, 2012

Oh, what sweetness!!! Cooper is our newest member of Little Gifts Newborn Club so we will be seeing a lot of his adorable little face over the next year! Aren’t we lucky? 🙂 Little Cooper was almost 10 pounds at birth, so his little baby cuteness factor is just off the charts with his chubby little cheeks, arms, and legs. I just love it! He was such a good boy for his session yesterday. Take a little look at Cooper. Congratulations, “H” family! I am so happy for you guys! 🙂

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!
