Fun to be 1...

Here's little William...just turned one last week and is as cute as can be. I especially loved photographing him with his cake...would you believe he didn't want it?? He kept pushing it away and made the funniest faces when he would bite into the icing...wish I had that problem with sweets. We ended the session with William in the tub and got some darling pics with him in there...it was the one place he actually stayed in one spot longer than 3 seconds!! This little one is a mover and a shaker and I'm already training for his 18 mos. session this summer where he's sure to be running circles around me..I can't wait!

Cute as a button...

I think my favorite baby stage is the three month mark...they've chunked up from the newborn stage but are still immobile, therefore being easier to photograph and just too cute for words. Little Miss Irelyn didn't disappoint! I could eat those cheeks up in a second and she so reminds me of my Hannah when she was that age...dark hair and rolls upon rolls of delicious chunk! Irelyn was such a good sport, letting her mama and I change her into different outfits and poses. It's hard to believe that when her next session comes around, she'll be sitting up and possibly crawling! Enjoy and thanks for looking. :)

8 days old...

This precious bundle was a dream to photograph...she didn't make a peep the entire time I was there! Her three (yes, THREE) older sisters were incredibly well behaved too and enjoyed holding their new baby sis for a few shots! Looking forward to photographing this family again soon.

Bigger really is better!

Happy New Year, everyone! Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! I thoroughly enjoyed the break with my family and it was a tad bit painful yesterday being out of "vacation" mode. It's good to be back to our regular schedule though and I'm excited for the new year ahead.

My friend and fellow photographer, Kelly, shared with me how to upload larger photos onto my blog (thanks Kelly, I owe ya one, girl!). So, just trying it out and seeing what it looks like. I'm going to be making some slight changes to my blog that you'll be noticing here in the next week or so.

Thanks for looking and enjoy the larger pics!

December Sneak Peak

What a fun week of photographing I've had! Tuesday, I photographed Jackson and his family at their home....I hadn't seen him since the May Blooms mini-sessions this past May (he's grown so much) and since then has become a big brother to sweet Cooper! What a couple of cutie-pies those boys were and so great in front of the camera.

Next up is precious Gabrielle...just 12 days old! She is much loved by her two older siblings, Connor and Audrey, and both were fighting to hold her...thankfully, they each got a chance! Gabrielle was happiest though in her mommy's arms but cooperated enough to be put down. She was quite alert and slept just long enough for me to snap some sleeping baby pics.

I plan to close up shop for Christmas break on Thursday, Dec. 18, so if you'd like to get in a photosession before the holidays, please let me know ASAP...I only have a few slots available! Otherwise, I'll be scheduling photosessions beginning Tues. January 6!

Family Session Sneak Peak

This sweet family was referred to me by my friend, Kristy. We had a fun time at Breckenridge Tuesday morning and got some great shots. The little ones were especially cute and had a ball running around in the leaves. I think I will be doing more shoots out there...I had forgotten what a great spot it is!

Hope you are enjoying your Thanksgiving weekend...thanks for looking!

Friday Fun

It was "Book Week" at Grace's school this past week and yesterday, she had the opportunity to dress up as her favorite book character....it didn't take her long to decide on "Fancy Nancy" and she was excited about wearing a tiara, boa and costume jewelry to school....I haven't seen her that excited to get out of bed and get dressed since the first day of class!

Our plans with friends got cancelled Friday morning due to some plumbing issues with the girls' bathtub, so Hannah and I spent the day at home. Hannah, being our budding chef, wanted to make brownies, so off to the kitchen we went. I think she enjoyed eating the batter more than anything...simple pleasures are the best! :)
