This little girl was accompanied by her sweet mother and grandmother.  Isn’t Baby V adorable in her pink sweater and summery dress?  This day, V was somewhat serious, but we managed to coax out several wonderful smiles as well.  I love being able to get both serious, soulful images and fun, lighthearted portraits in each session.

I was looking through my files and remembered that I wanted to blog about this session.  Meet Baby R.  His mom and dad are just the sweetest.  They were so relaxed during the session–which made my job a breeze.  And just from the few hours I spent with this family I could feel their love and how much this little boy means to them.

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the amazing mothers out there.  It’s the hardest job out there, but the most rewarding–really!

This beautiful little girl’s grandfather has been taking care of our children’s health since they were born, so this family has a special place in my heart.  It was an honor to photograph her.  Does she not have the most beautiful hair?  Her parents and brother are such lovely, relaxed and sweet people. So without further ado, meet Baby E.

Meet Baby B.  Isn’t she beautiful? And look at her soft, beautiful full head of hair!  This little girl’s family is also just so beautiful and so sweet.  It was such a pleasure spending time with them to capture this amazing time in their lives.  By the way, one of my favorite things to see is when families display their images in their home.  This family has such a colorful display of images that they see everyday as they walk around their house.  It really warms my heart to know how valued family portraits are.

Meet Baby R.  He is such a lucky little one, as his parents are so sweet.  I think these portraits speak for themselves. Can’t you just see the love they have for each other?  An look at how cute Baby R is–and that hair…  What a beautiful family!

This session is from a few months ago.  I’m a little late to blog about it, but it was a lovely session on a lovely warm day.  I’ve been longing for some warm beach weather, so I thought I’d put up some images today.  This family is just the sweetest.  Mom is very laid back, friendly and sweet.  And if you can believe it, she was actually pregnant when we took these photos.  Tell me these sisters are not just the cutest!

These are actually some of the spreads from the album she ordered.

Meet baby boy– G.  Most of the families I photograph are just so appreciative that I’m there capturing a moment in time for them, but this family is way beyond that. The entire family, including and especially Grandma C, are such gracious and generous people.  To the point of showing up with chocolates from Ireland, and coffee from the near by coffee house, offering me breakfast, and more.  I had the feeling I got when I visit my very generous and hospitable family in Europe. Grandma flew in from out of the country for her grandson’s birth, and is staying to help out, and I am so glad to hear that the family love their images.  Here are a few from the pregnancy and newborn sessions.

Meet Baby R.  He’s a handsome little guy with a couple of cool parents.  They were SO much fun when they were viewing and choosing their images.  I think mom and dad were pleasantly surprised that we got so many wonderful images, as Baby R. wasn’t quite in the mood for pictures on the day I was there photographing.  What’s great is that one of the shots that we all fell in love with was an unplanned shot with this adorable squishy pouty face (the black and white one below).  We were originally trying for the peaceful sleeping shot in the same position, but each time we tried, he would have nothing of the sort, and immediately got pouty.  I love when I get an even more amazing image than the one I planned on.  Such a cute baby!!!!

It was such a pretty day when we photographed this little newborn, so we were able to do some shots inside and some outside.  The family was so appreciative and accommodating in their home–truly a sweet family.  I was so excited to show them the images that we got.  Also, her sister was such a good sport through the entire session.  We even got some shots of her alone, enjoying a flower.

It wasn’t that long ago that I did J’s maternity images when her little boy was in her tummy.  And she’s now just weeks away from having another newborn baby.  This time we did outdoor shots, and the colors were just lovely.  As usual, they were just great to work with.
