This is quite the “baby” time around these parts. I always adore my itty bitty clients and newborn sessions are such a great time for me to really get to know my clients well. We have more quiet time at a newborn session then we will ever have at any other session.
Usually (and hopefully), the baby just sleeps and sleeps and the adults just talk play!
Big sister Katie was just a wee little newborn the last time I saw her little face. She sure has grown into a very helpful, beautiful toddler!
The little stroller you see above was picked up on a recent vacation down to 30A. My husband is very patient as I scour each place we go for the “perfect” little additions for the studio!
Eventually little William began to stir and we knew the session was winding down. However, I wanted at least one photograph of the new family of four before I was on my way. I sure think this is just about the best looking family…

sweet little alex! :: Newborn Portraits
Want to know something amazing? Baby Alex was born on the same day as baby Ava and their Mommies are best of friends. What an amazing story these moms will one day share with their little ones. It was lots of fun to meet baby Alex and to see his big brother Anthony again!
I know first hand how wonderful it is to have two boys close in age. My boys constantly love on me and are so precious. Last night we, as a family, watched our wedding video from nine years ago. My boys kept saying, “mom, you look so beautiful.” My boys are just tender and sweet like that. I know this mommy will forever be so adored by her boys!
Such a beautiful family and so wonderful to see everyone again. Anthony is now a big two-year-old and ready to be the BEST big brother.

welcome sweet little ava :: Newborn Portraits
Two years ago I had the pleasure of welcoming big sister Olivia and being her first photographer. What a blessing it was to now be a part of Ava’s beginnings.
Clearly Olivia is all excited about welcoming baby Ava. Olivia was one of the most well behaved older siblings I have photographed! It is hard to have your world rocked by a new little one but Olivia is taking it all in stride.
When Olivia was born, we used this same blanket for some of her portraits. It is fun to create a similar looking portrait to hang next to her big sister’s portrait.
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and stays cool! My family and I are off to welcome a very special baby. Our niece, Stephanie, has given birth to sweet little Emily. Jeff and I are now a GREAT Aunt and Uncle. How much fun!!!!

welcoming the second child :: Newborn Portraits
It is always delightful for me to watch the families I love, continue to grow. Welcoming a second child into a family is always a fun challenge when it comes to images. Often the older child is around the 2 to 3 year mark and they want little to nothing to do with the baby. Sweet Avery was loving with her brother but she was tired from a lack of sleep the night before. So, we had to do quite a bit of bribing to get her to buy into having her picture taken with baby Jude. I think we worked it out in the end.
Jude was a good little sleeper for me and we were able to get lots of those sweet, snugly newborn images!
….and the precious feet and hands… ahhh… baby parts….

sweet baby stella :: Newborn Portraits
Stella… I love that name… it reminds me of the “old days”. It seems classic and lady like… it describes this little lady perfectly.
These little rolls are *the best*!
…and the feet….ahh, newborn feet are so lovely!
Such a loving, wonderful family.
All packed, ready to leave, and I see this…. Precious big brother touching his little sister’s head while she is nursing… a moment that is worth remembering forever!

welcome sweet newborn campbell :: Newborn Portraits
It is with great excitement I introduce baby Campbell. She is so blessed to be born into a family that is filled with love and happiness.
I met this family two years ago when they brought home sweet Max. Max is presently busy sorting out his feelings about having baby Campbell in his world. We all know Max will be a wonderful brother but, like a typical two-year-old, he is still figuring it all out. I think by the Fall Max will be happy to show a little affection to his baby sister.
Meanwhile, little Campbell is enjoying life with all the attention she is getting from Mommy, Daddy and Honey (this is the sweetest name for a grand mom!). Campbell is totally unaware that her big brother finds playing outdoors far more interesting than interacting with her.
Luckily, life always sorts itself out. With these terrific parents in charge, there is plenty of love and hugs to go around.
Congratulations and I am so excited “it” is a baby GIRL!
