What a lucky person I am to spend my morning watching you sleep so peacefully little one…

A Moment Shared…

It was fun to catch up with this sweet, mellow boy and his family this morning.  I love this special moment from the end of our session. Henry giving smiles to his mama and grabbing his daddy’s hand at the same time. The light peeking through to highlight the sweet look on his face was perfect.

What a fun morning at the Walker with a cute family of 3 little boys!  They have grown quite a bit since our newborn session 7 months ago.  The twins have

decided to switch it up a bit.  The littlest newborn is now the big guy of the pair.  The one with more hair now has less.  What they

both have are some adorable smiles!  Big brother was patient throughout the session and then eager at the end to be included in a few photos.

If we thought getting 2 little boys to look and smile at the same time was tricky at 7 months, what do you think is going to happen when they are running in

opposite directions at our next shoot?  I think it will be full of giggles and smiles!  Can’t wait!

This smiling girl is one of the first I photographed when I first started my photography business. Now her baby sister is growing quickly and smiling for the camera. One of the best parts of my job is watching families grow.

You are so beautiful, to me
You are so beautiful, to me
Can’t you see, you’re everything I hoped for
Everything that I need
You are so beautiful, to me

a variety of pictures from jacobs 6 month photo shootI just finished Jacob’s storyboard and realized I hadn’t posted here about his session!  I first met Jacob at the end of last August and  now at 7 months, he is crawling, trying to stand, and showing off his adorable smile! What a cutie!

It was fun to spend some time with Nathan again.  I hadn’t seen him since his 6 week session. We started off with some fun play inside before heading out to enjoy the nice day at a park near by his home. The inside pictures are here and the outside are on facebook. Enjoy the cuteness of new discoveries and play!

I had the joy of meeting Vyaan and his family last weekend. His mom contacted me when he was 2 weeks old and we quickly squeezed in a session before he was too old to do all of the peaceful and adorable newborn poses. Not only did we get some great poses but we captured his adorable smile! Vijay and Missy thank you for sharing Vyaan with me. I look forward to watching him grow this year!

This past weekend I had the joy of meeting sweet baby Henry. At 3 weeks, we were a little nervous about how he would do during his debut photo shoot. Well, he was a natural. He made sleeping peacefully and being adorable look easy! Sarah and Travis it was fun to spend the morning with your new family. I look forward to seeing you all again in a few months!
