"I Never Knew How Much Love My Heart Could Hold Until Someone Called Me Mommy/Daddy."
And their hearts will only grow when their new little peanut arrives in a few more weeks. It was such a joy to work with this beautiful family. Mama was stunning and so gentle, dad so handsome and fun and little dude, oh, I could have photographed him all day - what a cutie he is and so much personality! This baby will be so lucky to have such a loving and kind spirited family.
Waiting for Baby Zeke
In just a little over a week these beautiful parents will get to meet their new little guy. I got to see his ultrasound pictures today and he is just as cute as can be! He is going to be one loved little munchkin with the most gentle, easy going parents. And I have a feeling he's going to be showered with a lot of extended family love, too!
Happy Birthday, Sweet Emmy!
This incredibly stylish little lady with all the smiles couldn't have been any more adorable if she tried. I had the joy of witnessing all kinds of new skills - side walking, eating some PB&J, attempting lots of new words quite successfully and heaps of cuddles and kisses for mama and daddy. You can tell she is one loved little munchkin!
Tenley Is All Kinds of One-derful!
It was so lovely to meet this adorable little munchkin and her sweet family and take pictures in their beautiful light filled home. Their home inspired me to get my decorating/remodeling on and inspired my two year old to ask for a sibling. He saw pictures of little Tenley while I was editing and asked if he could have a baby. She's just that cute. And so very, very loved. Take a look for yourself.
Welcome to the World, Baby Hayden!
What a precious little peanut and the most lovely family! Hayden's big brother just turned three and he was so much fun and so gentle with his baby sister. Here's what I can tell you about his interests (as deduced from our session): superheros, being a great big brother, snack, being active, being super friendly and teenage mutant ninja turtles. Here's what I learned about Hayden: big fan of nursing, being cuddled by mama and daddy, blocking out big brother's energy and slee
"There is no one alive who is youer than you!" -Dr Seuss
I was so excited for this fun in home session. An incredibly beautiful, genuine family with adorable munchkins in a house built in the early 1900s with dreamy light. Could it get any better?! Why yes it could. The family was also a fan of one of my favorite children's books - The Lorax. And they absolutely embodied the quote Dr Seuss in the title of this blog post. I was able to capture so many precious images of the little ones because their mama and daddy let them be themse
Welcome to the World, Baby Addison!
Baby Addison, you are so loved! It was such a joy to watch your big sister dote on you - which was pretty impressive since she is still a toddler herself - and the love that your mama and daddy have for you and your sister was so evident during our session. You are the sweetest little thing and I wish you the very best life filled with love and family!
Baby Elodie, You Are Loved!
I don't even know how to start to tell you about this beautiful family. I met Sara and Matt over a decade ago when we all worked for Head Start. A lot has changed in that time but their calm, loving personalities continue to leave me in awe. Today I witnessed that gentleness in their little ones. They showed kindness and patience toward each other and their new baby sister. After leaving their house today, I was overwhelmed with a sense calm and hope because this family truly
