Time flies!

This handsome little man has been on my blog a few times already. We did newborn, 3 month, and 6 months photos, and it was already time for his 9 month pictures! He wasn't so much into getting his picture taken on this particular morning, but we were able to get some nice shots anyway! This is such a cute little family :-)

A "Slice of Life"

As usual for springtime, we've had some seriously rainy days around here. The day that we had scheduled this little guy's sessions was no exception, so we were stuck indoors. But it turned out to be just fine! His Mom and I had some fun ideas, and we decided to capture a "slice of life" in their home, with him playing with some of his favorite toys and eating his favorite snacks. I don't get to do this kind of session often, but they're so fun! It feels like a documentary of a regular day of life... things that might seem trivial now but will be fun to look back on later... Here's some of my favorites from his at-home session:

Light and Bright Wedding

This past weekend, I assisted my photographer friend Nathan from Nathan's Photography at a wedding and reception. We had a great time, as usual, and I'm so happy with the images we captured! He posted the sneak peek on his website early this morning, so I decided to go ahead and share some of our work on my blog, as well. The wedding was very springy, with the bridesmaids in black dresses with bright and colorful bouquets. The centerpieces at the reception featured handmade pinwheels made from brightly colored card stock, and the wedding cake was a huge cupcake tree with different bright colors of icing and adorable handmade paper cups! My favorite part of the reception, though, was the dessert table, that featured mini cheesecakes and the bride's grandma's homemade cherry pies!
These are 4 of my favorite images from the sneak peek, and they all feature my shooting and/or editing work.

Another sweet baby!

I am so excited about the images from this session! We had talked a little bit about going outside for some of the photos from this session, but the chill that morning was just a bit too much to bring the baby out, so we did everything indoors! I love the natural feel of all of their family photos, and she looked so stinkin' cute in her little ruffle-butt and butterfly wings! And, those eyes! Wow!

Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice...

...that's what little girls are made of! This little sweetheart was such a good girl for her newborn session! Her mommy had some adorable hats for her to wear, and the dark hardwood of the living room ended up being just perfect with the basket setup! I'm so thrilled with how these came out!

...that face!

This little sweetheart's face might look familiar to you, I've photographed her several times, as well as her older sister. She was as cute as ever for this session - even with her tongue sticking out! She's going to be a beautiful little girl, just like her big sister is!

Soon to be a family of three...

When this couple contacted me for maternity photos after a referral from a past client of mine, we had been planning on getting some beautiful outdoor shots for their session. However, Mother Nature had other plans, and a weekend full of rain showers kept us inside. However, that didn't stop us from getting some really nice images! Mommy and Daddy aren't telling the gender or name of this little munchkin until the big day comes, but I can tell you, he/she will be welcomed to a home full of love, and one of the most adorable nurseries I have EVER seen, as well as a fabulous collection of children's books!

The black and white image below is one of my favorite maternity images, it is so simple and sweet, and so genuine!
