Newborn baby pictures!

I was going to wait until tomorrow to post another post, but I just can't wait any longer to share these pictures of baby Thérèse! Here she is yesterday at just 5 days old (I think that's right). Perfection, that's what she is! It was so special to spend the time with my friend and her precious baby girl and fun to work together to get the pictures just right. Christie might even let me go back next week for more!

Super sweet 5 year old

This is Isabel's sister Abigail. You can't look at her without smiling, right? Doesn't she just look like the sweetest little girl? And these sisters have the most beautiful, shiny hair. I'm going to try parting mine like Abigail's. I love the way it looks!

Beautiful 7 year old

Today was such a great day! First I met my friend Christie's brand new, absolutely precious baby Thérèse. Then I hung out with four really great kids. I have so many pictures I want to share that I decided to break them down into a few posts. Here are a bunch of 7 year old Isabel, who is a super fun big sister, a natural leader, and has beatiful brown eyes and shiny hair!











Stay tuned this week for Isabel's little brothers and sister and for tiny, perfect baby Thérèse!

Tyler!

When I'm a mom, I hope I will be as energetic and sweet and totally fun as Tyler's mom was today! She was amazing. We were basically lying on the grass and playing for an hour and a half. LOVED it!





Tyler's starting to walk and he's so excited about it!



One of his favorite things is the hose. This is after his clothes got soaking wet!



Another favorite toy: the phone.





And this is my favorite. Look at those blue eyes! I think he looks like such a big boy here!



We also got some nice shots of Mom and Dad reading with Tyler and even some with Grandma and Grandpa. I love meeting new super nice families, and today I met two, plus had time to spend with my husband, so it was a really good day! :)

Maryana is almost one!

Today I met Maryana, who is turning one this week. My favorite part of the session was seeing her dance with Elmo when her mom turned on a Sesame Street DVD. Look how cute she is!

My mini session with 15 month old Christian

I ended up with only one mini session today, so I got to spend some extra time with Christian and his family, and we decided to do the session at their house instead of the park. Christian was sleeping when I arrived and was not too happy to have a stranger in the room when he awoke! Dad and I kicked a ball back and forth and chatted while Mom got Christian a snack and drink to cheer him up. Little Christian just wanted to hold on to his mom the whole time. So sweet. His mom is gorgeous, so I didn't mind having her in the pictures, too! And I am LOVING the pictures from today...so much that I'm posting 10! :)

Mini Sessions this Saturday!

I will be posting soon about holiday mini sesssions, but it you aren't planning on doing custom photo holiday cards this year or you just can't stand to wait any longer to get more pictures of your child, there are still openings for this weekend's mini sessions!

Click here for the details and e-mail me soon if you're interested!

Here's a shot of Luke's little hand grabbing a Cheerio from this tree that he seemed to think was made just for him! Fifteen months might be my new favorite age!



I'm really looking forward to meeting Maryana and Tyler and Christian this weekend!

Gavin!

Yeah yeah yeah, I need to start getting ready, but just look at Gavin! His family is moving soon, so I won't get to see him for regular photo shoots anymore. I asked his parents if they're going to fly here every year for pictures and I think they were joking when they said yes, but I hope they were serious!

I did get lots of smiles, but I really like these two...

Luke!

I need to start getting ready for a wedding I'm attending tonight (Congratulations Lana and Yuriy!), but I couldn't wait to post a couple shots from today. I had two really great shoots: first Luke and then part 2 of my session with Gavin. Both were SO cute! More tomorrow, but here are two of Luke. We went to a park and he was totally in awe of everything there...every rock, every leaf, and especially every tree. It was so fun to watch!
