This is my favorite picture from a newborn session from yesterday. I am working through the session now but this picture made me stop and smile. I love how big brother is peeking at me while little sister is sleeping. More later…
From the blog lately, you would think we are only shooting adults but we are busy busy with little kiddos and family. I wanted show you some from this little guys 6 month session (look for more in the coming months, he is on our baby plan!). We met at his Grandmother’s beautiful house. We waited a few weeks until her was sitting up and I am so glad we did. I bet it won’t be long before this guy is walking! I love the coats at the end. It looks so classic!
Just because this blog has been mostly adults I need to show you we have just as many babies and children around here lately. Be on the lookout for this little one’s big sister in the next week or so before they move to another city. I was so happy to hear mom call me to tell me they were expecting a few months ago. I did big sister’s pictures last year and I was excited to meet another sweet girl!! This nursery pictures are extra special because this was the nursery she was brought home in but in just a few weeks, they will have a new home! They will always be able to show her the nursery that they decorate just for her while she was in momma’s belly. 
I love it when I can shoot in a client’s home. This family is about to move out of the first house that they brought their daughter into and I suggested we shoot their session there. What a great way to remember her first nursery! Years from now, when they look at these portraits and be able to tell her about the home she first came home to. Another beautiful thing about shooting in the home is that I am able to walk around and make the portraits personal to your family. I brought along a vintage suitcase but when I saw the moses basket, I fell in love. We looked through several outfits BUT when she showed me the blue dress, I knew we had to use it. Then I learn that mom’s mom made this for mom to wear years ago and now this sweet little miracle is wearing it! I love full circle momments like that! The beautiful yellow blanket… handmade just for her, along with the hat. Perfect!
Love her tongue sticking out!
Who doesn’t love little toes?
This one is my favorite close up. She reminds me a porcelin doll!
I love how cropping off heads brings your attention to the hands. Safe and secure… and finally here!
Yes, she is adored by her parents!
Grandmother worked nearby and came by for a few minutes. I wanted to get a three generations in one picture. Add to that baby girl is wearing the very dress grandmother made for her. Love it, love it!
You know the Saturday day a few weeks ago when it was supposed to be sunny and it rained all day?? We tried for our session on that day, but the rain changed that. I asked if everyone was available for Labor Day morning and it all worked out perfectly! We met downtown and tried a few new spots. I just love the background! So much has changed for this family in the last year. A year ago, we had our first session when the oldest daughter was just 3 months old. In the last year, baby sister arrived! I was so surprised when mom called to set up a session with her new baby that is already 3 months old!! This big brother is so sweet with both of his sisters. He watches over them and makes sure they are ok. Just a sweetheart! This time I talked Grandmom into joining us. She came with us on the last session but I couldn’t talk her into a single picture. But, on this day, I was able to snap a few of her with her daughter and grand children. I really love it!
