It’s hard to believe but my little man is 5 months old. Time really does fly by–no matter how cliche it is to say, it’s the truth. He’s such a good boy and–at this point–will indulge his momma with an impromptu photo shoot. We’ll see how long that lasts, though! My big guy isn’t too into it, turning me into the biggest briber EVER in order to get him to agree to a shoot 🙂 Without further ado, here’s some shots from our crib session this morning.
Today I had a session with James. 3 months 3 weeks and a tall drink of water. He was asleep on the couch when I arrived but soon opened his big blue eyes and all that followed was smile after smile. Talk about waking up on the right side of the bed! Now, normally I tell my clients that a 3 month session can be limiting and/or challenging. At that age the baby is only beginning to really smile and they don’t always tolerate being on their bellies for very long. Not this guy. His head was held high and he pushed WAY up! I was totally impressed. He had so much fun with me that I think I finished shooting in just over an hour. He had a ball and the only tears we saw were when we scooped him up out of his crib in his naked glory and got him dressed. I think he really enjoyed the, um, “freedom”. Thanks for a fabulous shoot. It was great to meet you! xo
Oh my goodness these are fabulous!! I swear, photographing that age is soooo hard for me. You made it look way too easy!
What a cute little guy! You did an amazing job on those, I can’t pick a favorite.
Stinkin adorable!! I was just telling someone the other day how difficult 3 months can be. You certainly did make it look easy…. Don’t you just love new photos! I am partial to hats and I love the laughing one in the crib. Great light 🙂
i know how difficult this age can sometimes be and you made it look effortless.
absolutely beautiful images and such a pretty boy!
stunning. i found you though a friend, michele dyson…and just had to leave you some love. your work is amazingly beautiful!
Aww man, you really got some fantastic shots here! Look at those beautiful eyes!
I had the pleasure of meeting these absolutely beautiful little girls yesterday. Sun was shining, weather was sweet, yeah. 🙂 Mom told me that the oldest might take some time warming up to me but she seemed pretty interested in me the minute I walked in the door. Add some fun props and accessories and I think we did just fine! You never know what will get a little one laughing but for her the very thought of pizza falling on my head did it. I have no shame and will do whatever it takes to get the smiles. The little one, well, she was more inquisitive than anything. At that age, everything but the camera seems more important–or tasty for that matter. We were back and forth pulling leaves and grass out of her mouth 🙂 It was a lovely shoot and lovely to meet you four!! xo
Love the photos. Perfection!!
Absolutely beautiful.
The girls are absolutely beautiful! They can just light up your life looking at them. And congrats to the photographer who did an awesome job!
So cute Stephanie…love the pp on these 🙂
Man i wish i knew hoe you processed your images. They are creamy dreamy!
They are SOOO cute! It really makes me wish I lived somewhere warm!
Here she is–the proud winner of my free newborn shoot. I’ve been so looking forward to meeting her! 8 days new and perfect as can be. She slept the ENTIRE time so I was able to cruise through many props and poses. If you are pregnant and looking to book a session, please book before your little one arrives. We will schedule you for 1 week out from your due date and then once the baby is born we’ll book you anywhere from 3-7 days out from when you leave the hospital. Babies are at their best before 2 weeks so timing is essential. So for Tracy and her loving sisters who brought her to the shoot…here’s your little girl! Enjoy! xo
Absolutely gorgeous! I love that little wooden bucket in the last one, so cute!!!
Love them all-beautiful!

Absolutely Perfect!! She is beautiful!
Absolutley spectacular images. So fresh, light and inspiring as usual. Love.
Mabel rocks! These are beautiful shots!
This is what comes to mind when I look at these photos. I love the light, the lemons and granny smith apples. I adore the Matilda Jane clothing and my vintage props. It all came together yesterday with this little cutie. She loves to play dress up and was in awe of the plethora of hair accessories I pulled out of endless bags, tutus hidden in closets, and lots of pretty things that made her eye sparkle with curiosity and glee. This is officially the first “model” shoot of the year though there will be many more to come. I had so many amazing photos submitted of willing beauties that I’m going to be doing more than I originally anticipated–and that’s ok with me. I will be in touch with you all very soon with my concept and dates!
not sure if I like this one....or the next better?

Gosh I can’t decide -love them both! Beautiful!
