Welcome, New Baby Ryan!

Tomorrow is a day of Thanksgiving - a day to count our blessings, and nothing can quite get you in the mood for that as well as a newborn baby. Tiny toes, tiny fingers and a sweet little sleeping smile... there is just nothing like it. :)  Baby Ryan was a little older for his session than most of our newborns, but because he was an early arrival, it was just like photographing a week old baby. He was flexible, tiny and spent his entire session in a deep slumber.

 It is amazing to me how much he already looks like mom and dad; he spared no time in telling everyone that he is a part of the family.  Baby Ryan is lucky enough to come into this world with a brother and sister so excited to have him.  He arrived just in time to celebrate all the holidays with them and to be passed around the family so everyone can soak up the warmth and remember when their babies were that small.  Happy Thanksgiving, everyone, and congratulations to the {L} Family!

Jonathon Turns 18 Months !

Jonathon has always been playful and outgoing; we knew this about him at six months and he has proven it to us at every session since then.  This was his first outdoor photo session and it fit his personality so well - gave him a chance to run around, play with mommy, and give us those trademark sneaky smiles.  We love photos that are a mix of lifestyle and posed, and give us a chance to set up for some impromptu moments and expressions.  This was the perfect opportunity!  Seeing Jonathon is always wonderful and we can’t wait to find out what he has in store for us next.  Congratulations, Jonathon; you are getting to be such a big little man!

Welcome, New Baby Madelyn!

There is nothing so precious as a newborn baby, and such is the case with new baby Madelyn!  At two weeks she was just over five pounds so we had to be patient and wait until she was big enough for some of the beautiful clothes that mommy picked out for her.  Some people are just born to be parents - they have that nurturing spirit and are just waiting for the day when their little one arrives.  Madelyn was lucky enough to be adopted by two such people.  She is perfect with her big brown eyes and little pink lips and the three of them are just so happy that this little girl was destined to be a part of their family.  Congratulations {S} family on your little girl!

David Turns Two Years!

David is a child so full of joy that it is absolutely contagious.  He is always smiling and on the go, ready for his next big adventure!  It was so fun getting to know he and his family for two year and family photos.  We chose a natural setting that would offer us beautiful backgrounds, and him a safe and fun place to run about.  Melissa brought along David’s cowboy gear and tractor - our favorite part being the little red cowboy boots grandma chose for him (aren’t they adorable?!)  Happy 2nd Birthday, David!

Welcome, New Baby Morgan!

I can't even explain how much I love newborn photos.  There is such a sweetness to being one of the first people to see this brand new life, so tiny and perfect.  Morgan Jean was seven days old for her session, and spent the whole time in a deep slumber letting us wiggle, pose and wrap her any way we needed.  She did such a good job for us, as did big brother, Carter who joined us for the beginning of the session.  So many congratulations to the {K} Family on the arrival of their little girl!
