I’d like to introduce you all to my new nephew, Matthew, or Matty as we call him. Let’s just say that Matty was not that excited to have this big black thing in his face during our photo sessions, not everyone can be fans of the camera. ;)

I love treating our newborn sessions as semi-lifestyle sessions. I love the new interactions between parents and their new bundle of joy. Plus, newborn sessions are just fun, even if my model isn’t in the mood. I always tell the parents that our newborn sessions may take a while, we leave everything up to baby and we don’t rush. I love doing sessions at client’s houses, Matty has a sea themed room and I just adored his seahorse painting, if you can’t tell.

Enjoy! Thanks Matt and Maria for letting me come over and capture your handsome little man!

There is nothing better than capturing new parents. Never mind the fact that I get to hold the baby, and cuddle them. I love capturing emotions through my camera. I think that may be why Rob and I love weddings so much.

I met up with Andy and Michelle at their house to capture Jackson. What a handsome little man, he’s got just a hint of red in his hair when the light hits it right, and I find that so adorable! While Jackson may not have been too excited about the overzealous woman with the big black eye, I got some great shots. Although, who would be excited to have something big, black and shiny pointed at them. Not many people are, but I love to document these moments in time. I am loving our documentary lifestyle sessions that we are offering this year. Just a couple hours spent with you and your family, just naturally doing whatever you want. Playing at the park, or just hanging around the house, I would love to do more lifestyle sessions, so hit me up, people!

Now, here is the real reason you all check the blog. Pictures! I hope you love them as much as I do!

{sneak peek} baby A

Posted on May 11, 2011

I will admit that when I was younger, I never dreamed of having any kids. My sister is the one that I lovingly call “the baby whisperer”. I was going to have horses, a couple of dogs and cats, and possibly a ferret, because they are so cute! Of course, then I met Rob, we got married, had the most adorable baby.

Okay, okay, I’m getting off track. ;)

I love new babies. They are so delicate and tiny, and yet so strong. I love the way that they smell, like spit up milk, baby oil and just new. I admit that I shoot newborns just so that I can hold them.

On that note, I wanted to share a sneak peek of miss A’s session, she’s definitely a close second for cutest baby in the world, but I may be biased towards my own little monster. I love this macro shot of A’s little lips. Love it, love it, love it. Now, you can too!

I just had to put these two shots up from this past weekend. Who doesn’t love a new baby? They are so tiny and perfect and all you want to do is hold them and just look at them. Ahh, I could watch them all day. I have the best job ever!

Don’t worry, as always there will be more to come.
