A Fish out of the Water

August 8, 2012

This swimmer was so fun to work with as we wandered around looking for fun spots for her portraits.   The lush greenery made for a great natural backdrop and with having such a cooperative model we luckily were able to get the session in before it got too hot.

Like Two Bugs in a Rug

August 7, 2012

It was so cute how this sweet big sister was very excited to have her picture taken with her new baby sister.  Especially when you consider that the last time I met her for a photoshoot she wasn’t nearly as enthusiastic ; )  Fortunately today she was feeling super smiley and helpful and ended up taking a bunch of great photos with her doll of a little sis, who stayed cautiously awake for most of the session.

Littlest Fan

July 28, 2012

I can’t believe that this sweet little West Virginia cheerleader who I photographed as a newborn was back in the studio this week as a big sister!  It is so fun to see my clients growing up and to get to meet their new family members.

Beating the Heat

July 27, 2012

This sweet family contacted me a couple of months ago in search of a celebrating adoption session.  Unfortunately the organization is no longer active, but as a former CA photographer I offered to do a special session for them to celebrate an adoption milestone as well as their son’s upcoming first birthday.   He was just the cutest little dude, and so eager to smile for the camera.   We were lucky that we were able to get the session in before the 100+ degree temperatures hit later that day.

Friday the 13th–Keep those Diapers On ;)

July 13, 2012

We started off this session with the best intentions of getting this little guys’ portraits without a diaper.  Well it seemed he wanted nothing to do with that and after a few, let’s call them “accidents”, we decided to switch to the cute diaper cover.   After we did, he fell asleep for us and we rocked (quite literally at times) through his session.  Love the vintage guitars that dad brought, especially this pretty blue one.

Summertime Family

June 26, 2012

I have been friends with the mom of these adorable blonde children since our eldest were in a playgroup together.  I can’t believe how long it’s been since those days.   Today they were visiting with their cousins and wanted to get some portraits together for their grandparents.   They were a fun group, all with their unique personalities.   I especially loved the boys showing off their missing front teeth.   And the garden was in full bloom with gorgeous coneflowers and black-eyed susans, which made a great setting for the girls.   We really couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful summer morning.

Advice for Big Sis

June 17, 2012

I thought that first image was just so cute.  It looks like little sis has some advice to impart on big sis already.  I wonder what she would say if you could talk : )    I’m glad I was able to fit these folks in at the last minute before I go on my limited summer schedule.  They were a lot of fun, and had the cutest pair of little girls.  Since I won’t be posting photos as frequently, I though I would add a few extras from their session.   Starting next week I have my own two girls home with me for the summer so I will be taking some time off to have some summer adventures with them.   Happy summer everyone!

With the Hydrangeas

June 15, 2012

I can’t believe this little girl is already one year old!  I had the chance to do maternity, newborn, and holiday portraits for her and now her first outdoor session in honor of her first birthday.  I just love her adorable wardrobe and big beautiful eyes.

Eyes Wide Open

June 11, 2012

I wasn’t sure what to expect in the studio this morning when this 11-day-old and his 2-year-old sister arrived.   Photographing toddlers with their newborn siblings is often a challenge, but today I lucked out with a chill (and awake) baby and a wonderfully cooperative big sister.   Just for fun I thought I would include a little blooper roll from the shoot.

Baby Yoda

June 8, 2012

How incredibly adorable and well-dressed is this little dude?  I just love his little Yoda hat.  I’ve never seen one before, and it was just perfect for him.   I knew that these folks must be a fun family when they came with such adorable Etsy goodies, and to top it off, their eldest and my eldest happen to share the same name, spelling and all.
