I met up little Ari right around his 1st birthday a few weeks ago, and boy, oh boy was he a busy little guy. He wanted to be on the move the entire time we were at the park! I had a lot of fun chasing him around with my camera. At one point, I had daddy tossing him up in the air – and man, I wish I could have captured the sound of his belly laugh every time daddy sent him flying. It was SO adorable!!!

And seriously. How gorgeous is this family???

I always tell people that my favorite type of photography is newborn photography….but this session had me questioning whether or not that was true! I had so much fun with this sweet family – such nice people, and pretty darn good lookin’ too! Little Ben was such a sweet, gentle boy – he had such a kind smile and his eyes…..oh, my goodness, those eyes of his were pretty much channeling heaven.

Thank you guys for such a fun session, I  look forward to working with you again!

This one just cracked me up! I told him to kiss Daddy and instead, he decided to show off his kissy face!

There are times in this journey through photography that I really feel blessed to do what I do. I get to meet the most incredible people and be with them during some of the most joyous times in thier lives! This session was certainly no exception! I’ve worked with this family for going on 3 years, and I’ve captured them going from a family of 2 to 3, and then 3 to 4. Absolutley adore this family – and even more so now that Julia has joined! K – hangin’ with you is just like hangin’ with some of my oldest friends! I {heart} you!!!

Take a look at this wonderfully perfect piece of cuteness at 10 days old. Love her!

One of my favorite families to work with came to see me again a couple weeks ago. I’ve been working with them since Little J (below) was still in his mommy’s tummy. Now he’s 2 and about to be a big brother to a baby sister! He’s gonna take real good care of her, I can tell. It’s always so fun to watch families grow, and it makes it even more fun when the families look as great as this one. K – if I didn’t love you so much, I might have to hate you for having the cutest preggo body out there!

Can’t WAIT to meet Miss Julia!!

Happy 2010! My first session of the year – and boy, was it FUN! Not only did I get my hands on some newborn twins…they were both girls! I swear, I’ve been on a newborn boy streak…well, pretty much since I opened for business. Needless to say, I was just a little bit excited to work with these two!    

Meet Ashlynne and Emmie, 5 weeks old here. I usually prefer to do newborn sessions much earlier than 5 weeks, but the girls were born a bit early and Emmie had to spend some time in the hospital before she could make the trip up here from Portland to be a supermodel for the day. Thanks K & J for making the trip up – it was wonderful to finally meet you guys!
