Liam's 1 Year Session

I couldn't believe when Tina called and scheduled Liam's 1 year session! How could he be 1 already? I vividly remember his newborn session. Poor guy had a bit of colic and we our best to get some cute shots and also try to sooth him in the process.
Now he's an adorable, happy toddler who I can't get enough of. This is my 1st shoot of the summer that I got to try out some new props I bought at various antique shops. I love old stuff. It makes for great pictures!
I adore Liam. I adore this family.

My Fave:

The Hingst Family

Way back in the day when I worked at a Lobbying firm part time I worked with this nice guy named Erik. His lovely wife called me about a month ago to schedule a family session and I got excited! It's so much fun to see old co-workers and to see how their family has grown. I may have met Cayden when he was a baby but Gabby was new to me AND she's already a year old!

How do you not fall in love with this smile and that RED hair?!

Or the sweetness of this little guy:

AND last but not least a few outtakes from the day. What do you think that photographers get perfect shots everytime? Oh no, not with 2 small children!

The Ambroiser Family!

Just a few pictures from my shoot with The Ambroiser Family! I shot Laura and Justin's wedding last fall. They were so much fun that I was excited to get a call back to do a few big family pictures for them.

Cousins...

I first met these girls at the wedding of their Aunt back in November of 2006! They were much smaller than! Since then, Julie and Dan have had an adorable little girl of their own making that 7 little cousins between 3 sisters! Pretty crazy huh?! I had them all choose how they wanted to sit or stand and then I did a few standard headshots. We had a blast and they were all so good! They didn't even know that they were all headed to Chuckie Cheese afterwards!

ALEXANDRA "Al", 13

MADELYN "Maddie", 11




ALISON "Al", 8




AUBREY "Bre", 8




ONJALEIGH "Onja", 7




BRYNN "The Shy One", 5




Even though Brynn was very shy she came up to me at the end of the session and looked up at me, just staring. I was like "can I have a hug" and she shook her head up and down and gave me a huge hug! CUTE!

And last but not least Eve, 6 months. This session doubled as her 6 months pictures so there are a few more of her...

My fave:














Kissy face! She did this at her 3 month pictures too!
