I love babies. To all who know me this is no surprise! Every time I hold one of these little bundles I am ready to jump back in and have one more. This sweet angel was sleeping so soundly, she didn’t wake up once. A huge congrats to her mommy and daddy!
I was so excited to meet Manraj and her hubby Sukhpreet. When they stepped out of their VW I was secretly hoping I would get to photograph it… well I didn’t even have to ask as they were hoping for the same thing I was!! Manraj had four outfit changes, she had earrings, necklaces, a sari, and shoes. It was so fun to get so many different looks and hats off to her because she was pregnant doing all this!! I think I love everything about this session, the lighting, the settings, ahhhh LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! Welll, I can’t really say more, I think the photos will tell the story. I am so excited to meet their sweet little baby boy or girl, thanks you two. ;)
Did I mention that I love this session!?
A gift for their sweet new baby.
My fav…… :D
Again….. love…..
I just love this baby, my Brynny B turns one today!!!! It’s so bitter sweet as she may be our last child….. might be…. ;) I’m so excited to celebrate her birthday with all of our friends and family. After looking back on the year there have been so many memories, finding her voice…( more like screaming), learning to crawl, how she did NOT like eating rice cereal and moved stright to finger foods, and so much more.
To my sweet B, you have brought us so much joy in this first year with you. I can’t wait to watch you grow and change into a toddler and a little girl. Your sisters love you and you are one tough baby being carried around by Hadley… even though mommy says she’s not allowed. Thank you for being my baby, I wish you’d never grow up.
All the mommas out there, if you have children… hug, squeeze and kiss them because they only stay tiny for so long.
I was so pleased when Sara contacted to me to photograph her maternity and newborn photos!! It was such a honor when she said that she had been following my work and was excited to book with me. The weather was rainy which is typical for the valley but we managed to grab a couple shots outside of the studio…. umbrellas and all! Soon enough little Karter came along, and he is such a handsome little man. He was such an angel during our session, he slept when he was supposed to, and was awake when we needed him, overall he posed like a pro. I was excited to get so many great shots!!
I love this shot of Sara! She had such a cute baby belly!
He is just too, too, too sweet!!!
Little details…
Proud daddy and mommy.
This my first ever Tuesday’s Tips, I want to share and help!! This is for brides to be, families, moms, and learning photographers. Every week you can check here to keep updated on the Tip of the week. Well here it goes!!
If you’re getting family photos taken you know finding an outfit for the whole family is a huge task! Everything has to be perfect, the colours, is there a pattern, are we too matchy?? Ahhhhh! It can be overwhelming. Here are a couple of tips when picking your clothes for the shoot.
I LOVE these combos!! Something simple, yet has that pop of colour!
I love the colour in the clothes in these two photos!!! It really gives them character, they really stand out. I also really like primary colours!
Well that is it for this time! I hope this helps for our next session on what to wear. See you soon!
