Little and Lovely

I think it must be impossible to take a bad picture of this little girl. She's absolutely adorable, with the best expressions. I love love loved this dress she was wearing. It really added a touch of beauty to all the photos.

Family

I love doing sessions for family, it's important to me that they have good photos to cherish, and it's also fun to see future playmates of my kids. Here's a little one that we hope to see a lot! She slept through most the session, but shared a few smiles for us even in her sleep.

9 months

This little guy is always in a great mood when I see him, showing off his dimples and great smile. For this session their house was a great backdrop for these photos. Often I'm asked before a session if there is anything a client can do to get ready for the photos or any props they need. All I really look for is a room with the best lighting, and a cute little subject and I'm good to go. I like to go into homes and work with what they have, and this client has gorgeous pocket doors that really added to the photos. Here are some favorites:

I might be slightly bias since this is one of the zillion new cousins that were born into the family recently, but our family has some seriously adorable babies. She was absolutely perfect for this session, only getting tired toward the end which is typical. I had so many favorites it was hard to pick just 5. Here are just a few:

Two years of sessions

I have been photographing this family for a little over two years. Mom discovered she was pregnant during our stages package for his first little guy, and then I continued a stages package for her newest little baby boy. Now he's no longer a baby and is 1 and her oldest is 2! It's been great watching both of them grow, from newborn sounds to talking, I always enjoy my visits with them. Here are some of my favorites:

6 month session

I know I've mentioned this before, but often the best photos are away from the props, and just taken in a well lit bedroom on the bed. Comfortable, and natural. This bedroom had such great light that I told them I'm moving my studio there. Hope they don't mind :)!
Here are some favorites, along with one of the big brother!

New Year New Beginning

My first baby and session of the new year! This little guy made his appearance on New Year's Day. What a wonderful way to begin a year. I'm sure 2011 will be an amazing year for this family! Here is a sneak peak from our session:
