My Kiddos

I had a session sadly cancel (death in the family) so I decided to finally pull out my new backdrops I have been dying to try and my cute lace outfits I have had for a while. I also had been needing to take my daughters 18-month portraits since she is now 19-months-old. So I am calling it good for her 18-month portraits.

Anyways here is my sweet little girl:

I couldn't believe how happy she was, usually these attempts end up with her crying, and sometimes me too because I get so frustrated. My son also decided he wanted his picture taken and he posed and smiled all by himself. And I finally got a picture of them together both smiling and both looking at the camera. It was a good day. I love my kiddos!

Keagan is getting Baptized

I had the opportunity to do a quick little mini session with this handsome 8-year-old who is getting ready to be baptized. He also happens to be my nephew, who my son adores and looks up to. This session lasted about 10 minutes because of the storm that rolled in while we were shooting.

Here is Keagan's preview

Drake's Newborn Portraits

Drake's mommy has been waiting a while for this preview....I had a hard time picking my favorites so this is going to be a LONG preview, but very CUTE! I got to try out a lot of fun new props (thanks to Jennifer with The Happy Top Shop). One thing I love about my job is getting to do Newborn sessions with brand new parents. Drake is a very loved little boy and you can tell by the way his parents look at him, it's so precious! What a lucky baby.

Here is Drake's long awaited preview:

Happy Easter

Just wanted to share this sweet little bunny with everyone since it was Easter time. 

This adorable little guy will have a full preview up next week.

Happy Easter!

Road Less Trodden - Album project

This project has been in the works for a while now. It's nice to finally have a finished project. The band will be submitting the album cover tonight so I am keeping my fingers crossed that it all goes smoothly. I am excited to see the finished CD case all printed and ready for their release. This has been a new experience for me and has taken a lot of time to get all the specs right and right formatting for the lab (it's a lab I have never dealt with before...and sadly wouldn't recommend to those bands seeking album publishers).

Anyways here is the big project finally! YAY!

I don't know when they will be releasing their album but I will give everyone a heads up. I am excited to hear their CD.

Whipple Twins

These two adorable kiddos came in for their mini sessions last week. They were pretty shy at first but we caught a few smiles and some cute portraits. I have always wanted twins (one boy, one girl), thanks for sharing your sweet twins with me Cathryn.

Here is their preview:

Khloee at 20 months

Khloee is my niece and she is VERY active! I love it though, she is already full of attitude and personality! We had a hard time getting her to hold still but we got some fun portraits to remember this stage in her life. She is growing up so fast!

Here is little miss personality! :)

Reegan is Turning One

I am so far behind on my previews and I apologize. To all of you waiting for your previews I promise they are coming. Thanks for being so understanding. In order to get all my previews in before I leave for vacation I won't be posting as many pictures in the previews (doesn't mean we didn't capture a lot of cute ones, just means I am just sharing my very favs) 

I am loving all these cute and adorable kiddos that I have been photographing lately. Here is a preview of one little sweetheart who came in for her 1-year portraits and a cake-smash session.

Mini Sessions

Trynleigh modeling some cute hats

I've had these cute hats that I have been dying to try out on a newborn girl...but my only problem is I have only had baby boys come to me for newborn portraits! So I thought I would try to get a few quick pictures of my 2-month-old niece modeling them. We attempted to do her newborn pictures when she was a week old but she wasn't happy at all, so I was really surprised when these two pictures turned out today! 

She is so cute and tiny!!!

And yes these hats were made by my wonderfully talented friend Jennifer Hill
