A couple of weeks ago I photographed a little newbie named Greyson. LOVE that name! I had a great time hanging out with his mom and dad while we took his newborn photos, and I think we set a new record. He slept the entire time – didn’t even wake up to eat! Out of all of the newborns I’ve photographed, that might a first. I have so many favorites from this session that I couldn’t just pick one or two to post. I’m sure you’ll be seeing more of him soon – he’s one of my first year babies, so he’ll be back a few times throughout the year. I think we need to put him in this nest again at 1 year and see how he fits in it then. :)

Danielle and Sean – I had a great time meeting you guys! I hope you enjoy your photos!

Grab yourself a drink and some popcorn – this is going to be a long post. :) I met Angela and Justin in August 2010 when they contacted me about doing maternity photos. I had never done a maternity session before at that point, so I was pretty excited to try something new. Angela was stunning, and these are still some of my favorite maternity photos. Fast forward a month later and Harrison was born – one of the cutest little guys you’ll ever meet! I still remember his newborn session very well – he was happy, but that boy did NOT want to sleep. Justin went out and got us some dinner (since we seemed to be in this for the long haul), and Harrison decided to pass out as we were taking a break. Once he fell asleep he was OUT. I’m not sure if I’ve ever had another baby sleep quite as soundly as he did. He turned into a squishy little ball of sleepy baby and we were able to get some awesome photos!

Next time I saw Harrison he was 6 months. Sitting up and all smiles. You’ve probably seen photos from his 6 month session posted all over my website because he was just so happy and full of great expressions – I had a lot of favorites. Fast forward another 6 months and I was taking Harrison’s 1 year photos already! He was on the move, and checking everything out. Still cute as ever, and his mom has THE best taste in clothes for him – I just love his outfits! Another awesome session, and hopefully there will be more to come in the future. I’ve had a great time working with you guys and watching Harrison grow up throughout the year. He just keeps getting cuter and cuter!

Enough talking – here are some photos! A couple of my favorites from each session. Enjoy!

I photographed Mia around this same time last year, and this year she had a brand new little sister to bring with! Little sister Lauren is 2 months old, but we were still able to get a few sleepy photos along with some of her beautiful eyes. Just a few photos for now – I’m sure there will be more to come later when I finish up their gallery. Enjoy!

Just a couple more from Bennett’s session now that they are all edited. And I know the Vikes haven’t been doing very well, but I still love this first photo. :)

I was editing this little guys newborn pics and came across this one.   It was too cute not to share – more to come soon.

Finally getting a chance to get caught up a little here!  Our AC went out during the hottest week this summer (110+ heat index), and we ended up moving out for a week instead of staying in our house, which was like a sauna.  I hate saunas.  Seriously.  Miserable.   The AC guy is here putting in a new unit right now.  I’m doing a little happy dance.  Not that I didn’t love staying at my parents for the week (thanks mom and dad!), but it sure is nice to be back home and get some work done.

The week before we left, I had a session with this cutie for her four month photos.  Stella is seriously one of the cutest babies I have ever seen!  And I’m not sure if it was me or the teething, but she was sticking her little tongue out at me most of the time.  I tried not to take it personally.  :)

I had a great time meeting you guys, and I hope you enjoy your photos!

 

 

I’ve been working on editing these photos from last weekend, and just had to post a few.  Is she not one of the most beautiful babies you have ever seen!?!  Little Leela was just 7 days old when we did her newborn photos.  I can’t get over her awesome hair.  I was bald until I was two years old (it’s true – I’ve seen the pics), so it always floors me when babies have this much hair.   Leela is one of my first year babies, so I’m sure you’ll be seeing a lot more of her throughout the year.

 

 

I have to start out by saying that this was one of my most favorite sessions ever!  We had so much fun – Julie was a rockstar and up for anything, which meant that I got to try a lot of fun, new things as far as posing and lighting went, and we ended up with a ton of variety.  Only showing a few here, but expect more to pop up on the website in the near future.  :)

A big thanks to Julie’s mom, Sue, for buying Julie and Dave a gift certificate for the maternity session and my first year package.  It’s been so nice talking to Sue, and I’m really glad she introduced me to Julie and Dave – you guys are awesome, and I’m so glad that I’ll get to work with you throughout the year!  Can’t wait to meet your baby girl!  :)

 

 

I met up with Aidyn for some photos while her, her mom, and grandma were in town last weekend, and amazing still is not enough to describe this girl.  Aidyn is a heart baby.  She was born with a very complex congenital heart defect (click here for more info on CHD).  At just 6 days old, she had her first open-heart surgery.  At 10 days old, her first heart cath.    Just shy of her first birthday, she had corrective heart surgery, where she emerged with a fully functioning four-chamber heart.  Meeting her now at 3.5 years old, you would NEVER guess that she has gone through so much.  She was smiling, giggling, and running circles around the rest of us (telling us to “hurry up” when we weren’t walking fast enough – LOL!).   I am in awe of her – truly, she is a walking miracle.

In honor of Aidyn and all she’s been through, I will be donating $1 for every blog comment left on this post.   :)  I had a great time meeting up with you guys, and I hope you enjoy your sneak peek!

I’ve never claimed to be a great product photographer, but I finally decided to take some photos of different products I offer. They can all be seen in studio, but for those that schedule on-location sessions, or do their ordering online, these will hopefully help give you an idea of what you’re purchasing. :)

These are my gallery mounted standouts. Available for single photos, or collages like the one shown. No framing, mounting, or matting needed – they come ready to hang. Finished with a beveled edge in either black or white, these are a fantastic way to display your favorite photos.
