I'm heading out the door for our family vacation, but I had this shoot with Mr. A (and his big brother C) this morning and I couldn't help but post a couple of my favorites before we leave. Thanks for letting me come by! We'll see you guys soon for a playdate!
This afternoon I had a shoot planned with little miss M and her mama. We scheduled it for noon.-ish. (I'm serious, that's what it says in the contract!) Babies can certainly be unpredictable, especially once they get out of that brand-new, sleep anywhere and everywhere all the time phase. Flexibility is KEY in getting the images you want from them. This little lady is just 3 days younger than my own chickadee, so it's an age I am currently very comfortable photographing!
She made us work for it, but we got some really nice images out of today's session. It was lovely meeting you today, and I can't wait to see you guys for your next session, when we get to bring big sister along, too! Enjoy your sneak peek!
Way back when, before I had babies and a husband and a dog, I had roommates. My roommates were all, of course, in similarly single situations. As the years pass, an increasing number of my past (All from craigslist, I might add. And only one complete housing fail among them!) roommates have joined me in the married with babies club.
This morning I was lucky enough to go hang out with one of those ex-roomies and his wife and their little baby girl, who isn't even a week old yet! Little S was sooo awake (and hungry!) for most of our session, but we were definitely able to capture some great moments. Here are a few of my favorites-
Baby girl in the crib that was actually handmade for her daddy by her grandaddy. I love photographing newborns with family heirlooms like that. It's so special to have that story.
And to think, they were worried that they weren't photogenic...
I do love a good baby on a couch!Much has happened since my last post here on the blog. But instead of doing a big long catching-up post (which I actually have half-finished, saved as a draft), I will just jump right in with a sneak peek from my most recent shoot.
My husband's cousin had her little girl just last week. We visited a few days after they took new baby K home, and then I went over yesterday (with my two assistants- at 22 months and 3 months old, it's a good thing this shoot was for family!) to do the newborn session.
We got some really great awake shots, and had so much fun that I just may have to go back next week to get some more shots while she's still all squishy and new! Here's a few of my faves from the shoot.
Looks like Daddy is already wrapped around somebody's little finger...
Snoozin'
Mama, looking like a cover model just a week after having a baby. Today we had a really fun session with H and his mama... they're family friends and we have been trying to get together to do this session for forEVER. Today he turned 15 months old, and we finally did it.
We had fun and got some great images. Since this was more of a playdate/photo session, there was a second little one toddling around trying to steal the show... but we managed to keep her occupied and out of the way MOST of the time.
Thanks for coming today, you guys! Here are a few of my favorites from the day, the rest will be posted online real soon!!!
Sunday brought our last and final participants in the Love for Haiti Fundraiser- we had a fun time with little Miss S and got some great images. Here's one of my favorites...
Thanks again to everyone who was a part of this- we have raised over $250 so far, and I'll be able to let you know the final grand total once all the orders have been placed. To put that $250 in perspective, let me remind you of these numbers-
"Thirst Relief's cost to build, deliver, and install a concrete Biosand water filter is $50-70, which in turn benefits on average 10 people in need. Our cost to repair an existing broken well hand pump is $300-$800, which in turn benefits 500 to 1000 people in need."
I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your help and generosity, you really have made a difference in the lives of many many people.
This morning I was ready for a challenge. Miss R was coming to the studio, and though this was our first session together, this was actually her 4th attempt at Christmas photos. The first three did not go well, I hear there was a collision with a door, a time she was sick, and even a time she was so scared of the photographer she threw up on him! Luckily for me, I'm not a man with a beard, so (with the help of some apple cinnamon puffs) we had a fabulous shoot.
Had fun with you this morning, ladies! Here's your sneak peak!
We had our first official shoot in the new studio space this morning! Little Miss L was quite the patient lady, she let me keep taking pictures of her for over an hour, with minimal tears... And just look at those big beautiful eyes!
Great meeting you guys today! Enjoy your sneak peak!
Kennedy and her mama came to my house yesterday for our rainy day photo shoot. We originally wanted to shoot outside, but it was so miserable and cold that we moved it into the warmth of my rearranged living room... we had an excellent time.
