When C’s Mom contacted me about taking his newborn pictures I was super excited!  She had some wonderful ideas and I looked forward to seeing how we could bring her ideas to fruition!  A BIG key was the weather…a newborn outside?  You need warm weather, especially if you are going to do anything without clothes!  Although our day ended up being breezy, it was warm and for that we were all super thankful.

The location chosen for this session was the family farm…I was in heaven!  A newborn AND so much to work with around the farm – ahhhh!  In addition to taking C’s newborn pictures, extended family photos were also desired.  It was a lot to work into our time together but we made it happen!  Although I will do a separate post for the family pictures, you will see some of them with little C in this set.  Isn’t it wonderful that he has entered this world surrounded by people who love him and want to be a part of his life?  What a blessed little boy!

His little boots are so cute!!!!

These were taken with a family football – love the sentimental value of such things!  🙂

This picture makes me laugh and think it is how C felt about taking the pictures you are about to see:

He did not care for going without his clothes!  It took some creativity and working quickly to capture the shots with the saddle!  (but doesn’t he look so cute laying there?!?)

We were able to snag one more shot before he was completely done with not wearing clothes…but just “barely”.

Here are some pictures of C with his family.  There is something sweet about seeing C with his older sister…what great friends they are going to be as they grow up together!

C was such a trooper through all we asked of him – he was amazing actually!  I am so honored his parent’s wanted me to take his pictures!

I look forward to posting the additional family aspect of this session soon.  🙂

 

 

A baby…so small, so snugly, so smooth, so innocent…I simply love it when I get to work with a new, little one!

Believe it or not, I had the privilege of taking pictures for this couple when they became engaged and am honored that they also wanted me to capture pictures of their new daughter!  It is so much fun to document the changes and growth of friends and family in this way!  Sweet baby J was a dream to work with and her parents were amazing as we worked indoors as well as outside!  I loved watching Mom and Dad interact with and love on their daughter – she is one blessed little girl to have them as parents!

This family enjoys the outdoors a great deal…I loved being able to use a some camo with this little lady!

(We kinda like camo in our family too! 🙂 )

Sometimes, when a picture like this is caught, I can’t help but wonder if it is a subtle signal saying, “Enough already…can’t we be done with taking pictures now?”  🙂

J and T, thank you for letting me hang out with you all for a while and take pictures of your adorable, little girl!  I loved every minute!  🙂

Isn’t this little one a cutie?!?  I had such a great time with A, her Mom and her Grandma…here is a glimpse into some of what we captured during A’s time in front of the camera.  🙂

After anticipating the arrival of this little guy, it was my privilege to see him for a bit at the hospital and then hold and take pictures of him at his new home!

He is such a sweet little guy, so alert with his watchful eyes!  His nursery is super cute and done in such fun colors…  It was awesome to work with the various options D and E’s home offered, I especially liked the light on the brown chair with the white cushion.  I am thankful the weather enabled us to take some pictures outside as well…we captured some lovely shots for this great family!

The above picture was take with items used in D and E’s wedding…I am naturally sentimental and love things that contain meaning like that!  🙂

This blanket was made by one of H’s Grandma’s…it is super soft!

Check out these pictures of “Gorgeous”, the cat…she is still adjusting the the newest member in her family!  I think the second picture is so funny…Gorgeous just had to reclaim the spot H had used for some of his pictures.  🙂

I am going to wrap up this entry with a few black and white images…special thanks to D and E for continuing to open up their lives to me, enabling me to share in their joy as they embark upon the journey of parenthood!
