baby blues...

how could you forget these adorable brothers? Blake is now 6 months old and get a load of those beautiful blue eyes! Just like big brother Nate's! I love everything about my sessions with this family... they have the best blankets, rugs, etc. - so many textures, wonderful lighting, did I mention the gorgeous blue eyes they all have?, and most importantly, lots and lots of love for each other. And what an honor to come in the front door and see a wall of my photos framed! There is seriously no greater joy for a photographer to see their work displayed like that so it can be truly appreciated. Thanks again B family - you make my job so easy! Enjoy your sneak peek...

sweet little claire...

I'm sorry - I know I've been a blog-slacker lately! I'm actually working on my new blog which will launch sometime very soon. I was trying to make this post below the first one on it but it's not ready yet and I hate to keep this sweet baby's family waiting any longer :) But check back soon!

This is 6 day old Claire DeEtte (isn't that the prettiest name?) and what a pretty little baby. So sweet and perfect and an absolute angel during the session. Only getting mad once when we tried to put that huge, itchy tu-tu on her :) Sorry Claire - but you looked so cute! It was so nice meeting you Heather - I can't wait to watch Claire grow...

a new itty bitty...

meet Taylor Marie - 3 weeks old and such a sweet pea! She was so cooperative during our 3 plus hour session. Her mommy is a good friend of mine and I'm not quite sure how she does it. Ms Taylor here is number 4 for them so it's a busy household! Congratulations Jenna and Mike - she's precious. Can't wait to watch her grow!

charlie and his family...

Charlie-bear is 6 months old and such a doll! Those eyes...sigh. We took some family pics too for their Christmas cards. I'm really hoping Ben and Olivia can give my boys some tips on getting their pictures taken. They were both sooo good! Olivia just makes me smile - she's got such a cute personality. And it makes me sad to see Ben all grown up - I've known him since he was a day old. It really is a blink of an eye and they change. I love my bff and her family!!!

look who is a one year old...

Katelyn is another graduate of my baby plan. Her mommy was one of my first maternity shoots! I can't believe that was a year and 1/2 ago. This whole family is adorable and I've loved getting to know them over that time. Big brother AJ is 3 and such a good little guy. Not many 3 year olds are up for picture taking but he's a pro. Thanks again W family!

carter is 9 months...

I've been a non-poster for awhile now - sorry about that. I'm going to try to get caught up this week so I can show you some of the cuties I've photographed. I'm just back from an amazing newborn workshop put on by Kelly Ryden and Tracy Ravers aka the baby whisperers :) I learned so much about working with newborns and can't wait to show you some of the pics I took there so stayed tuned. But first things first... Here is Mr. Carter who is 9 months and growing like a weed. Rebecca and Ethan are always willing jump for a few too. I always love taking these guys pics - such sweet kids.

happy new year!

2009...what a year! I'm somewhat speechless when trying to come up with the right words to describe this past year. It has been fun and busy and overwhelming and amazing! Oh and busy :) I'm so excited to jump in to 2010 with my brand new camera (I'm thinking I need to name it since it's now part of the family - will come up with one soon).

To all of my incredible clients...thank you! What an honor it has been to have been asked to come in to your homes and tell your stories through my photography. We laughed, we played, and sometimes we cried and in the end we came out with some unforgettable moments. Here are just some of my favorites...



I'm looking forward to meeting new families and catching up with old ones in 2010. Thank you for making this past year a beautiful one and, as always, thanks for stopping by...

teasers...

I'm back from a little mini-break! Happy New Year to everyone. I'll have a New Year post/video later today so be sure to check back. But until then here are 2 cuties I photographed before my break. I'll have more of each later this week but wanted to give their parents a little sneak peek. Here's brand new baby Reese and cutie patootie Charlie...
