Bright eyed, beautiful family

February 22nd, 2012

I had such a fun time photographing this happy family!  This sweet three-year-old goes to the same daycare as my daughter, so I’ve known him since he was a tiny guy.  His new little sister is such a completely charming and full-of-giggles babe…I would happily photograph her all day long:)

Here’s my favorite for their over-the-fireplace canvas…

And my favorite of the little miss!

Looking at this picture, I can almost feel that soft baby skin.

Check out those soulful eyes.  Girls, look out.

Our little man is an on-the-go kinda kid.  I loved watching him romping around with his dad.

Oh my!  Someone is getting tickled.

It looks like he’s resting on his parent’s lap, but that’s a nano-second captured:)

Thanks so much, you all for inviting me to capture this moment in time for your family.  Those young ones of yours are such a delight to know:)

Six-month-old sweetness

February 3rd, 2012

Last weekend, I had the great pleasure of meeting a much-loved six baby and her terrific parents.  Miss G had just discovered that she has a tongue and that she can stick it out, and during our time together, she demonstrated her new discovery.  I love taking photos of babies because it’s such a joy to capture for posterity these fleeting moments of adorableness.

I really like this next picture because a) Baby G’s eyes are such an amazing blue and b) Mom’s smile radiates such complete love.  Looking at this photo reminds me of the sweet smell of my baby’s skin.

Here’s our little munchkin with Dad.  She’s such a little sweet potato!

I really do have a thing for baby skin.  There’s something about the softness and the plumpness…like a perfect peach.  I so treasure moments when I’m able to capture a naked baby in all their fresh-skinned glory.

My goodness!  What fantastic, sparkly eyes you have, my dear!

I love this next image.  The look she’s giving is questioning and a bit pensive, and at the same time, so soulful and pretty.

We started our photo session with a brainstorming session about photos that the family was hoping to capture.  One of the ones they were looking for was a silhouette.  I’ve got to say that I love when my clients share some inspiration for our sessions.  It gets the creative juices flowing.  And what a sweet family silhouette we got!

Thanks so much for a wonderful morning, guys!  I loved meeting you all, and I smile every time I see Miss G’s cute tongue:)

Newborn in December

December 9th, 2011

There’s nothing quite so wonderful as a newborn baby.  When I looked at my calendar and saw that I was photographing a brand-new little one this week, I just couldn’t stop smiling.  It’s a treat and an honor to get to meet families as they open their lives to grow their family tree.

Take a look at these sweet folks below, and I think you’ll agree that our tiny Mr. N is wrapped up with love.

Those tiny heads fit so nicely in Dad’s hands.  It must feel good to be so cradled and safe.

So snuggled up!  This little guy was born big – over 9 lbs and 21 inches long.

Here’s my favorite.  I just love those lips!

Curled up sleeper.

Here’s the sweet new family.  Those first days witha  new baby are exhausting…you two are doing great!

Lots of love to you!
