Little lady L has to be one of the happiest babies I've ever met. She smiled and laughed lots during her session. Six months is one of my favorite ages for photos, and it has everything to do with the wide-eyed wonder little ones display at this age. The whole world is amazing, and six-month-olds seem to get that. You can see that in her eyes.
A walk through the park on a cool morning with this crew looked something like this. I love how the bright colors pop against the Texas lack of seasonal change. More than that I love how beautiful love looks on this family. Don't you?
It's amazing to me to watch a newborn turn into a smiley baby. Landry has done just that, and she was all smiles for her parents throughout her session. That's evidence of a wee girl who is loved well. She wasn't such a fan of her Halloween costume, but she still gave a few smiles in spite of herself. I'm so excited to watch this little miss grow up.
Two-year-old twin girls are busy, independent, fun. They are learning to talk and wanting to go! and do! and be! and finding their feet in life. Neither little miss was certain they wanted to have their photos taken. And that's okay, because the end result was genuine expressions and real life. I'm glad I get to keep on telling the story of these little girls.
This is the fourth year I've photographed these two, and it's such an incredible thing to watch a little girl grow up before my eyes. Watching she and her mom interact at this session was so fun. I think you can see love in these images.
Purple stripes and a smiley girl who is growing up before my eyes... I love how loved she is. I love how low-key this family is. I love the way they are, together.
Jack is about to celebrate his first birthday, and if his demeanor is indicative of his ability to celebrate, it'll be a fantastic day. This baby loves life. He laughs and smiles and makes his joy known to everyone. I love how expressive he is, and I love that that expressiveness came through in this session. I also love his super creative style of crawling. Happy birthday, Jack!
They are growing up before my eyes, these three. I love the way their faces shine. They are a joyful trio who love each other and life. It's always an honor to update their photos. They make me smile.
Some of the most beautiful people I know. I love that I get to continue to tell the ongoing story of their lives visually. It's hard to believe Sam and Lucy are 5. It's not hard to believe that they're growing up to be incredible kids. They are thankful, precocious, fun-loving adventurers. I'm grateful to have the whole family in my life.
...two little girls laughing and dancing and delighting in life. Their grandpa has cared for them when their parents go to work since they were babies. This session was breathtaking and felt magical. The love between these little ones and their grandpa makes me tear up. I think you can see the love in these photographs. It's a treasure to behold.
My niece Betsy, at our second meeting, was five-weeks-old. This time around her big brother joined in on the photo fun. A few photographs from my visit.
This session begged for black and white processing. I loved the candid, natural interaction of the boys and the new life their new puppy has brought into the house. I loved the gentle calm their mom brings. I always love shooting in Central Massachusetts, and this family is one of the reasons I love to keep going back.
Meet Zachary, 5-days-old when we did his photos. Sleepy and snuggly and handsome and smiley. His mom and dad and big sis are head-over-heels in love. I can see why. Isn't he wonderful? (He was born to be a Rangers fan, so it's fitting that I'm writing his blog while watching the game.)
No words necessary. I love these images.
True story: I met this family on an airplane when the triplets were a few months old. We struck up a conversation, which led to me shooting the kids' one-year photos, which led to me shooting the kids' two-year photos, which led to this session. I'm so glad it did. These three are full of energy, curiosity and fun. It's been a joy watching them grow.
Dear friends at the lake with their kids on a warm summer afternoon? Perfection. I meant to blog these weeks ago, but they somehow got missed. I smiled when I came back to them today.
Watching Miss Nadine grow up is truly a privilege. She is such a happy baby, and I cannot get over her curls. You can see her newborn session here. I love, love, love these photos...
One of the greatest privileges of this job is photographing the families of my friends, year in and year out. I am honored that they would choose me as their photographer. I love seeing their children grow. I smile looking back through these images. These photos? so much life...
Brothers on a Sunday morning with their mom and dad, at home and at the park... They kept me on my toes, and I loved chasing their busy selves around. We had such fun. I hope these photos represent happy memories for this gorgeous crew.
Katie and Anthony got married last year in a private ceremony and celebrated a few weeks ago. We did a few photos of just the two of them before things got rolling and then spent the evening with their friends and family. I loved how loved they are and how they love each other.
A bonus of this gathering? My very first birth clients were there. So fun to see how their little miss has grown.
