I had so much fun capturing these sweet brothers! I just love their cool and casual style. Both sweethearts had fallen asleep in the car on the way to their session, so it took some dinosaurs and music to warm them up, but once they did, they had the sweetest smiles as the setting sun glowed through their ginger hair. Simply adorable!
Sawyer is One! - First Birthday Session
This boy has stolen my heart!
Sawyer and his big sisters hung out with me on the hottest day of the year for his First Birthday Session, but it was his sweet giggles that truly had me melting . These little mommies were so very attentive to their baby brother, and helped me to get his attention and make him laugh.
Between the laughter, love, and smiles, Sawyer blew lots of raspberries, and played with his tootsies. It has been an honor to capture him for this exciting milestone. Happy Birthday, Sweet Boy! God bless you!
Walker is One! - First Birthday Session
Walker is almost ONE!
This darling boy is my first outdoor session of 2023! It feels so good to be outside again, and the night of Walker’s session brought spring-like temps and warm, golden sunlight. The winter was long and slow for me this year, but sessions are finally booking up as the days grow longer. Photographing Walker and his mama was a great way to kick things off. For this session, they opted for all neutral colors, and rustic overalls, as his first birthday party is a farm themed “Holy Cow! Walker’s One!”. So fun!
I hope you have the best birthday party, Sweetheart! It was a pleasure meeting you!
Nixon Thomas - Newborn Session
Baby Nixon was the perfect bundle of joy to start off my year of newborns! Weighing in at nearly 10 lbs, and sporting such a perfect head of hair, he was an absolute sweetheart. After a few family shots, Nixon got cozy and warm, and slept for the remainder of his session like an angel. It was my pleasure to capture another sweet baby boy for the K Family!
William is One! - First Birthday Session
I’ve had the pleasure of photographing William over the past year, as his family purchased the First Year Special package, which includes 3 sessions (newborn, baby, and first birthday) for the price of 2! Being that he’s a winter birthday, we captured his session in the comfort and warmth of his own home. We also included some family pictures, as my sessions are always customizable to whatever the client would like!
Thank you for allowing me to share in your first year, sweet William! Happy Birthday!
Sawyer Jay - Newborn Session
After two months in the NICU, sweet baby Sawyer is home where he belongs. There is no doubt he’ll be receiving a lot of loving from his family, including his two proud big sisters! For his session, we started in the family room, and then moved to his nursery, which features a gorgeous accent wall built by his daddy. The love in this family is positively overflowing, and I am so happy for them that they are now complete!
Atticus is One! - First Birthday Session
The Force is strong with this ONE.
I adore a good theme, and bonus points if Mommy and Daddy bring props! Atticus’ parents are big fans of Star Wars, as are their little guys, so bringing along some of their favorite toys was an easy way to enhance the photos, as well as keep Atticus engaged. In addition to this, his SUPER TALENTED mom made these costumes especially for the session. The most amazing part? They’re no-sew! She fashioned these masterpieces using only hot glue. Amazing!
Happy 1st Birthday, Atticus!
William is Six Months! - Baby Session
This Christmas Baby is halfway to ONE! William was so sweet for his at-home session. It was a sweltering July day, and he was happiest in his diaper! This man’s cute little tootsies definitely stole the show, as he enjoyed laying on his back in the perfect “happy baby” position. What an absolute joy he is!
Franco is One! - First Birthday Mini Session
Oh Franco! I just loved meeting you! This lil man was so sweet for his 1st birthday pictures. I’m a big fan of baby boys wearing classic looks, and Franco looked precious in his seersucker and knee socks! I wish him all the kisses, hugs, and happiness as he turns one - it’ll be an exciting year for this big-brother-to-be!
Omar is One! - First Birthday Family Session
It feels so good to be shooting outside again! We had a beautiful evening for Omar’s First Birthday Session featuring some family pictures, as well. Omar could not have been any cuter, and his big brother too! I love a set of adorable brothers. They absolutely nailed their session, and were a great start to the spring photography season!
Enzo is One! - First Birthday Session
I’ve been lucky to photograph this sweet lil’ leprechaun over the past year. Enzo always brings the smiles at his sessions, and his First Birthday session was no exception. He was so cute and happy, and truly enjoyed his smash cake at the end - smashing it with both his hands and tootsies! Even big brother got in on the fun!
Holden is One! - First Birthday Session
Look at those cute little chompers! I can’t believe this little man is one! I’ve enjoyed photographing him over the past year. For Holden’s First Birthday Session, we focused on some simple baby boy favorites; like his train, balloons, and his sweet backwards hat. Tiny details that are true to his personality, and perfectly commemorate this time in his childhood. You don’t necessarily need a lot of decorations and props to have adorable birthday pictures.
William - Newborn Session
Christmas may be over, but the sweetest gift is still under the tree. Precious William was born on December 27th to his parents and big sister Charlotte. After celebrating Christmas Day, his parents went to the hospital on the 26th, and welcomed their sweet boy a day later. William’s birth follows the loss of another baby boy, so his parents wanted to honor his big brother by including this special wooden sign in his session; handpicked for Earth by my brother in heaven. William is his family’s “rainbow baby,” a term used to describe a baby born after the parents have suffered a loss. The term is derived from the notion that after the storm, the skies will clear, the sun will come out, and there will be a rainbow. I have no doubts that William’s big brother will always be with him throughout life.
Leonardo Nicholas - Newborn Session
My sweet, new nephew Leo joined us earth side on November 29th. He was quite alert for his session, but did give us a few sleepy moments, and even a smile. He is so loved, and I’m thrilled to be his aunt and personal photographer. Welcome to the world, Leo!
Lochlan is One! - First Birthday Session
Lochlan was adorable for his 1st Birthday session in his beautiful backyard! Years ago, I photographed Lochlan’s brother in the same spot, so we were trying to recreate some of the same images, but being he is an October baby, we incorporated some pumpkins for this lil’ pumpkin too. I just love the way his red hair and blue eyes pop against the greenery of the natural background. And there is nothing cuter than a shirtless baby boy in suspenders!
Enzo is 6 Months! - Baby Session
This little meatball looked so cute in a spaghetti pot wearing his adorable newsboy cap and bowtie. He just melted my heart like mozzarella! I always enjoy photographing Enzo and his big brother Louie! Their parents are just so fun and kind, and the boys are obviously “bello”! Plus, I have a soft spot in my heart for little Italian boys, as I have two of my own at home!
Finnegan Reid - Newborn Session
I am so appreciative to have helped the B Family welcome all three of their babies with newborn sessions. Their third, Finnegan Reid, is adorable just like his siblings. His mommy is a librarian (hence that perfect middle name), so of course we had to incorporate a little bit of literary art with the sweet Peter Rabbit sign that was gifted to her for the nursery. I always love when families want to put a meaningful special touch in their pictures.
Welcome, Finn!
Lorenzo Tyler - Newborn Session
It was so fun to return to the L Family’s home to meet their newest little man, Enzo! I’ve had the pleasure of working with this family since their first baby was born three and a half years ago, so we were trying to replicate some of the images I had taken with their first-born, Louie. The starry backdrop was a perfect nod to Louie’s Neverland themed nursery, and also fit perfectly with Enzo’s outer space themed room. I love a good theme, so I was all about it!
During the session, we kept commenting on how similar the brothers looked as newborns, but after seeing their photos side-by-side, we couldn’t believe how different they are at the same time. You can definitely tell these two are brothers, though. Both simply adorable in their own special ways!
