Big D turns one

Another baby turning one. How does it happen so fast? It literally seems like a few months ago we were doing his newborn session. Before I know it I will be doing his senior pictures :) Big D is a major cutey and did very well for a 12 month old. It is one of the most difficult ages in my opinion, so I am always a little nervous what these one year olds will do for me. He was a super star and did wonderfully. Check out these toothy grins and gorgeous blue eyes. Little heartbreaker!

The "D" family

I got the pleasure of working with the "D" family this evening. It was hot and the girls were tired, but we managed to get some great shots. Big sister "A" was totally working it for me. Little sister was a little tougher to crack, but in the end I won :) I love so many that I am having a rough time narrowing down my gallery. Lots of pretty and fun, silly ones so hard to choose favorites b/c they are great for different reasons. I will work it out though so the decisions aren't too hard for Mom and Dad :)

Mommy love...


Love her kind of sideways look, so sweet!


There is nothing I don't totally adore about this shot


This was going on behind my back and thank goodness Mom called me over to capture this. I TOTALLY adore her little hand on his face. Melt!

"T' turns 9 months

I went to meet up with baby "T" for her 9 month session. This was our 4th session together, so I like to think we are friends now :) Mom decided to do a real "lifestyle" type session today which I was really excited about since I shoot at parks, my fields, etc. and often when we shoot at someones home we use the backdrops. So, it was fun to do something a little different today. We started outdoors and it was H-O-T so we didn't last too long. Inside her beautiful nursery is really where the magic happened anyways. It was a photographers dream. Beautiful room, super cute crib, adorable outfits and hair accessories, and the cutest little car EVER! Oh and don't forget the gorgeous baby of course. I super love sooo many of the shots I got in her room I am having a hard time narrowing them down!

This one was screaming for a vintage look




Love these eyes

The brown eyed girls

I met up Sunday afternoon with the adorable "M" family. I first met them about 6 months ago for their baby girl's newborn session. After a very fast 6 months flew by it was time to meet again. I have been getting some serious use out of "my" fields this week. I just totally adore them this time of year. Baby "R" came out of the gate like a supermodel with lots of smiles for me. Big sister "S" gave me some smiles at first but quickly tired of my antics. We joked she is 2, so that is just the way it goes. We got plenty of cute ones, so I am not worried. I was excited because this family came in turqoise just like my family yesterday whose wardrobe I loved so much. That color is fantastic in the field, so I really scored with 2 days of great wardrobe choices. Anywho, on with the pics...

E turns 1

I finally got to meet up with 1 year old E. We were a little past her birthday since I was out on maternity leave. This was our third session together and the last of our plan year, so always makes me a little sad :( Hopefully I will see her again sometime though. Mom did an awesome job with the family's outfits. She totally gets the whole coordinating but not matching thing, so go Mom! On with the peeks...

This just makes me smile...


Pretty smile


Love her little toes
