New Baby

Yesterday morning I had a photo shoot with Miss Hannah, who is 2 weeks old today. She decided to stay awake for most of it & was not too crazy about me stripping her down & making her lay on her belly. We did manage to get some sleepy shots...I'm just hoping that all of that awake time means she slept like an angel for Mama & Daddy last night.

Reed & Lilly

I got to have a fun, little play date this morning with Mr. Reed & baby sister, Lilly. What a sweet family! Thanks so much for a great morning guys! Enjoy this little sneak peek of some of my favorites.

Location, Location, Location

Today I did an afternoon photo shoot with my Gracie girl that she absolutely rocked. One of the most appealing things about today's modern, lifestyle portraiture is capturing real people in real places with on-location photo shoots. Whether it's in your home or around your neighborhood, lifestyle portraits are a great way to capture your life as it is today. This afternoon was a great day to take advantage of ideal natural lighting. I chose a trendy, playful outfit for Grace that brings out her happy-go-lucky attitude & we headed for fun, colorful settings. Our shoot lasted a couple of hours & most of our settings were within walking distance of each other. I love how these shots capture her many expressions & looks...especially those crooked teeth!

Maternity Sessions

This morning I had a maternity session with Wendy, soon to be mother of four. This little one will be the darling prince...baby brother of three older sisters. Little Miss Abby was kind enough to help Mama with her session by posing with her for several shots. What a wonderful way to capture this last, precious time for their family.
