now 4

I first photographed this family a few years ago, when they were just 3 (gosh that’s a fun walk down memory lane!). Now they are a family of 4 and it was so fun to see how much the dynamic has changed with the arrival of a sweet baby girl named Naomi. Amanda mentioned that Audrey loves being a big sister and boy does she ever, it just shines through. So gentle, sweet, attentive. This was just such an easy session, hanging out, laughing and exploring the park. Amanda and Jamie, it was so great to see you guys again and […]

often known as, the baby in the green chair

But Miss Belle isn’t a baby anymore….she’s 1! Another sweet girl that I had the honor of photographing coming in to this world. Honestly, I was nervous that day, because while I always try to meet my birth clients before they go in to labor, Miss Belle made an early arrival and walking in to the labor and delivery room it was the first time I’d met Pam. But what I didn’t know is that I was meeting someone with a huge, open heart who is so kind, thoughtful, energetic and has a way of making those traits contagious to all those around her. Over the past year, I’m so […]

sisters, swoon

I absolutely adore these girls, it’s been so fun to watch them grow. Jane has grown in to such a wonderful big sister and Joan absolutely adores her right back. The shots of them together, swoon! It makes me wish I had a sister and it makes me *almost* want to give Taryn a sister asap. Note the *almost* 😉 And I also have to mention Joan’s curls….I wondered if she’s get them eventually and she sure did! Another swoon!! I bet by the time I see them this fall for their birthday parties it will even longer. Can’t wait!

tender, sweet, quiet and calm

Little miss was the perfect mix of sleepy and wide awake. And she was happy as long as there was a blow dryer nearby. It’s always so fun to see what “tricks” woo each newborn I photograph and I often wonder if parents pull out that blow dryer at 2 am in the nights following a session 😉 I love these images, tender, sweet, quiet and calm, just like this family.

Jackson turns 1…

Jackson has been such a joy to watch grow over the past year. He gave us quite a run for our money with his 12 month session but we got him didn’t we Danielle?! 😉 I love how these turned out, he wasn’t a huge fan of eating the cake, but he still managed to make a mess and that always photographs well! I’m going to need some kleenex soon with all these baby planners graduating! Danielle and Grant, it’s been so great to get to know you over the last year and be a part of Jackson’s milestones!

bittersweet

Ah, the end of a year of memories for one of my absolute favorite families ever, so bittersweet. What I love about them is that they show up and they are so real. They are who they are and they let me in to photograph it all with such open hearts. They embrace the chaos that 3 busy boys bring and laugh through it together. I think this is one of my favorite session with them, at the end of a year the boys are just so comfortable and it’s like hanging out with old friends. I also love the location they […]
