Baird + mom + dad

i had such a fun session with Baird and his mom and dad.  can you imagine a more beautiful family?!

we hiked and raced and played in the tall grass at the park.  Baird has a little sister coming soon - 

i cannot wait to meet her!

hello christopher!

meet christopher, just six days old!

before our session i had no history with christopher's parents, just a string of emails from his mom while we waited for him to arrive.  we talked about the kind of newborn photos she was hoping for - soft, natural photos of the new family around their home.  it sounded like a perfect fit for me and when i finally got to ring their doorbell, i was sure of it.  

adorable adell

here's a quick glimpse at adell's adorable 9 month mini session.  i'm so happy to get to photograph her!  as with many of my clients,  my relationship with adell's family began years ago when i photographed her mom and dad's wedding.  jennifer and john are never short on smiles - something that is easy to love about them.  i am grateful to know them and tickled pink to photograph their family as it grows.

for this little session i chose the location, mommy chose the dress, adell brought all the smiles   :)

WILLIAM . six months old

i am so pleased that i get the chance to photograph William.  he has been a total joy - both at his newborn session and his 6 month session - and i cannot get enough of him!  (his mom and dad are lovely too!)
enjoy the photos :)

baby collins

the photo above is one of my favorite images i've made in a long time.  collins was a perfectly perfect little sleepy head :)

bourbonais family

i met this great family when their oldest daughter was a goalie on my husband's soccer team.  you may remember brooke from her striking senior portraits.  it's a year later.  brooke is playing soccer at a college she loves.  and her younger sister, kali, is playing goalie for andy's team!

i was very happy to get the chance to do a fast, fun mini session of the whole family while brooke was home from school.
