One of the best parts of being a photographer is getting to watch a baby and family grow… I’ve been with this sweet baby since before he was born! I can’t wait to see how much he has grown at our next session!

I have a few minutes break since the holidays and think I need to post something, anything! So here is one from yesterday’s session. This is cute little baby C… chubby little rolls and all! 🙂

Karen brought her beautiful grand kids to me for some fun and colorful portraits. I had a wonderful time interacting with the 3 of them. And I absolutely love the images of them looking at each other and laughing. What’s more authentic then kids goofing around???!!!

Baby E is here and he is as cute as can be. I had a wonderful time cuddling and getting to know the little man. I was so surprised when Kristine brought out her video camera to record E’s first portrait experience! She even got a couple photos of me talking to him. It’s so weird being on the other side of the camera. 🙂  Congratulations Kristine! You are just as stunning as ever!

Tara and Will brought their sweet baby boy over for newborn portraits. After getting a full belly and diaper change Baby A was more than happy to fall asleep and let us get these awesome images. Congrats to you all!

Baby Girl X is one of my favorite babies. She’s my childhood friend’s baby girl. It is amazing that I get to watch her grow up even though her mom and I are 800 miles away from where we grew up! Happy Birthday baby!

Lorena and Gil were absolutely glowing when they brought baby A to see me! We spent a few hours getting the best images and, or course, gossiping!

I joined Mr. C and family at the Dallas Arboretum this summer. We met as early as we could to try and avoid the Texas heat. Despite the scorching temperatures we had a great session that led to some fabulous images.
