{Greyson} | Lindstrom, MN newborn photographer

January 20, 2012

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!

{Harrison} | Ham Lake MN maternity, newborn, and baby photographer

November 22, 2011

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!

{Isaiah – 3 weeks} | Maple Grove, MN newborn photography

November 14, 2011

Just finishing up with the editing on this guys session, and I had to post a few. I don’t know why, but I always get the babies with the rock-star hair. Isaiah is no exception. He may not have had the most hair, but I just love how wild it is! You can’t tell in these photos, but he has the most beautiful eyes, too. Might have to post some of those later, but here are a few sleepy ones for now. And if you’ve followed my blog for very long, you can probably tell by now that I can’t get by without posting a macro shot and at least one black and white shot when it comes to newborns. Didn’t want to disappoint. :)

ETA: OK – I didn’t make it very long. Here is one with his eyes open. I just love his little smile here.

{Mia & Lauren} | Lino Lakes MN baby and children’s photographer

October 31, 2011

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!

October 18, 2011

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.

{Brynn – 5 days new} | Maple Grove, MN newborn photography

August 10, 2011

Julie + Dave (seen here) = Brynn! She was born on her due date – the fourth of July, an awesome time to be born (and I’m not just saying that because we almost share a birthday). She was another tiny newbie for me – my smallest diaper cover was falling off of her tiny little butt – LOL! She was a dream for our entire session. When she fell asleep, she was out cold, and we were able to get a lot of sleepy shots and some awake ones, too. Brynn’s nursery is decorated in the pottery barn Brooke theme, which has some cute owls (my daughter is obsessed with owls, so I thought this was pretty awesome). When I found out, I just had to get a matching girly knit owl hat for her newborn session. :) I have so many cute photos to share, but these are a few of my favorites. Brynn is one of my first year plan babies, so I’m sure you’ll be seeing more of her soon. :)

Doesn’t she have the most amazing long eyelashes!?!

{Stella – 4 months} | Little Canada MN baby and children’s photography

July 27, 2011

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!

{Leela – 7 days new} | Blaine, MN newborn photographer

July 15, 2011

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.

{Arybella} | Brooklyn Park, MN baby and children’s photographer

July 6, 2011

A beautiful name to match a beautiful little face. Arybella is such a pretty baby, and she gave me a lot of serious looks, but a lot of smiles, too. I absolutely LOVED her dresses, and I had a great time meeting her, her mom, and grandma while taking her 3 month photos. Arybella is one of my 1st year babies, so I’m sure you’ll be seeing a lot more of her throughout the year.
