Meet Cooper. I was scheduled to do his session mid-June but he decided to really surprise mom and dad and made an appearance 6 weeks early! Even though he’s a preemie, he was still a good size at 2+ weeks today weighing in at 6 lbs 11 oz. Maybe it’s a good thing he came early!! 😉 He was a total dream. He slept the entire time all the while making his signature squeeks and grunts. Lucky for us the weather was fabulous so even though I wasn’t able to get my outdoor shots with the newborn session on Monday, I was able to get out there today and I am soooo happy we did. Another big thanks to my mom who is always on the look-out for great props for me (the rocking duck rules!). Enjoy! xo
So tiny, so perfect. I loved her hair, all the baby fuzz and her perfect little lips. She slept on and off in between feedings and changes and never fussed much from all the maneuvering I attempted. I had hoped to take her outdoors today since the weather was just right but after about 3 1/2 hours she decided that her session was over 🙂 I hope she finally got some sound sleep this afternoon! This summer I hope to do more environmental newborn shoots–taking it out to nature! I’ve got lots of ideas and all the props to back ’em up so if you’re pregnant, give me a ring and let’s set something up! Enjoy! xo

She is perfect, you must be so proud! The camera loves her too, it looks like you have a little movie star in the family.
Well, really it’s still a month away but I was able to get down to the beach house for the first beach session of the season. It was an absolutely gorgeous day, so much so I didn’t even mind treading through (usually) chilly Cape Cod water. It wasn’t my first time meeting my clients. I did a session with their son when he was 10 months old, so just about two years ago. Mom is due with baby boy #2 in July and I hope to be seeing them then as well 😉 I think “A” had a blast; from the rowboat, to the sandy pointe, from riding a vintage trike to blowing bubbles and playing airplane with dad. I hope you guys had fun too. Great to see you again. Enjoy! xo

Girl, these are so classic feeling. I just love coming to your blog my friend. Gorgeous artwork all around. LOVES!!!
I’m like a kid in a candy store. I get so excited with every shoot that the first thing I do when I get home is insert my CF cards and download my images. Ok, so maybe I hug and kiss my kids first but when they’re napping, I’m off to start editing images! So here we are at 3 in the afternoon and I have my blog post ready from my session this a.m. in Boston. Call me obsessed, call me a nut–but I just know it’s because I absolutely love what I do. Today I met Lila; 7 months old, big blue eyes and loves to roll. Front to back, back to front and front to back again 🙂 It was a gorgeous day so we decided to get out to their lovely garden for a few shots at the end. So happy we did! It was great to meet you and I can’t wait to meet your spunky, beautiful big sis soon! xo

Love the detail images!!! Sweet little girl~~
I feel really blessed to have such an amazing relationship with my mother. I can talk to her about ANYTHING. Yes–anything. We laugh together, cry together, drive around aimlessly together just so we can be together. She is a rock, my confidant, and loves me unconditionally. My children adore her and that makes my heart sing. Again, mom, Happy Mother’s Day!
