A wonderful session with a wonderful family!

I am a little behind on posting this - this was a session from last week. The weather was beautiful and the child I was there to photograph was such a doll! He seemed to laugh at me a lot - not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing ;).

Welcome to the world, baby boy!

Newborn baby girl

I had a wonderful newborn session with a sweet baby girl and her family last week.  :)

...and... he's... OUT!

I am helping out a friend today - she is out and about getting some very much deserved mommy time. This little one, who is my friend's oldest, was being very grumpy. I soon found out why! I sat down near him, attempting to photograph his cuteness but of course every time I picked up my camera and pointed it at him he got a little mad at me. So I left him alone and within minutes he was out! So adorable, you have to admit.
So of course I had to photograph more! How can I resist??

Their mom is also a photographer but since she is not a portrait photographer (and she is not comfortable with taking portraits) all her professional photographs of her children come from me! :)

Annual photo session

Had a session today with a family expecting their 3rd child! They have welcomed me into their annual tradition of family portraits in the spring. They were having trees removed from their yard so we had to borrow a few neighbors' yards :)

Spring sessions! Book now!

Want to schedule a children's outdoor session this spring but the rain is discouraging you? Don't worry!! Your session can be rescheduled due to cold, rainy weather! Just book yours and if the weather looks horrible then we will reschedule and try again. Your payment will be transferred to your new session!!  

A sweet newborn

This is a session that I had last week. The family was so great and the baby was such a sweetie! Such a strong little girl!

Newborn & Infant sessions

Until recently I have treated all my newborn/infant/children sessions the same, no matter what the age of the child. I offered children sessions which covered any age. I decided to separate my sessions according to age groups to make things easier to prepare for sessions. So the sessions I am now offering are: Newborn (birth to two weeks), Infant (over two weeks to before they start crawling), Children (master crawlers and up). The newborn and infant sessions now consist of a combination of "posed" portraits and lifestyle portraits. When I say "posed" for the infant sessions I am not saying I am forcing the child to sit a certain way - it just means I am having more control over the background of the image by placing them where I want. My newborn sessions are for children still young enough to sleep through the sessions and are still curling up. My typical children session consists of me following the child around and creating images while they are exploring there world! This style of course is still a part of my newborn and infant sessions as far as family interaction in their home or yard. I now have separate "preparation" sheets for each type of session so that you know exactly how our session will go and what to do to prepare for it. Makes things a lot easier for everyone! :)
