For some reason I tend to get a lot more baby girl newborn sessions than baby boy ones. It was a fun change to shoot for a boy, especially in a nursery as adorable as this one. Every time I post anything about this couple I mention how much I love them. They just make sessions especially fun to be at and keep me smiling and laughing. Here are a few from their session.

A quick peek into a perfect newborn session this weekend with some of my favorite peeps…

Just a peek from this morning’s newborn session…

Although typically I’m not a morning person (as my clients would agree since they usually get emails from me at 3:30AM), I am totally thrilled when people go with my early morning sessions. You just never quite get this kind of beautiful light at any other moment in the day and there’s always a sweetness and peacefulness that comes across in morning sessions, and it makes me happy.

Had a great shoot the other day with a very sweet family. We did a lot of normal portraity photos of course, but truth be told I think these are my favorites and the type of artwork I’d hang in my house. Such beautiful, sweet moments. This is what I love to shoot.

Also…can I have her hair please?

This was one of those sessions where everything just clicked — personalities, sense of humor, location, weather, timing, etc. There was a lot of laughing and giggling going on, and they turned out beautifully. When I look at these, it’s obvious to me that it was a fun morning.

Plus who’s more gorgeous than this a month before their due date? I sure wasn’t, I can tell you that! I’ve been warned that I might not be able to handle the cuteness I’ll encounter at their newborn shoot, and you know what? I believe it.

(Side note to local photogs: if you know this location, please do not impose on the owners’ kindness by requesting shoots. I worked closely with them, and they were generous to allow me to shoot there but I would be sad if they started getting taken advantage of or bombarded.)

These siblings are going to have the luckiest parents this year at Christmas. Not everyone’s kids are so thoughtful and get their parents such awesome heirloom gifts for Christmas.

My favorite shot of the day. Love the spontaneity:

It has been quite a while since I’ve done a product post of any kind so I thought I’d give you guys a glimpse into some fun changes I’ve made recently with packaging. Ain’t it pretty? My clients often tell me they feel like they’re getting a gift when they get their products, which is exactly how I want them to feel! Now they get even prettier and better protected gifts!

I’ll try to squeeze in some more product posts for you in the future!
