“Of all the rights of women, the greatest is to be a mother.”

~Lin Yutang

I just adore this beautiful mama.    I first met her when she hired me to photograph her days-old first baby girl, and I have had the opportunity to photograph sweet little N and her family many times since.   Traci is just so incredibly fun and we have found ourselves chatting for hours on end on more than one occasion.  She was the talent behind the amazing hair of all the models at our recent Alice in Wonderland shoot.  Check her out and give her a call if you want a new ‘do–seriously, she rocks!  You will quickly find that she is one of the sweetest things around, too.  I am SO very excited that Miss N is going to be a big sis, and I cannot wait to meet their new precious joy.  Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to be a part of your lives, I just love you all so much.  I look forward to watching your family grow! And to Dada S, I just haven’t gotten to the fam’ photos, but don’t worry–lots of fun ones with you, too!

Yay!  One of my photographs from the Alice in Wonderland photo shoot–styled by The TomKat Studio and featuring the talent of SO many fabulous artists–was a featured photo on the Martha Stewart Dreamers into Doers webpage!  SO fun and exciting that they loved it, too!  We had SUCH a blast at the shoot…don’t forget to check out my original blog post to see more of the shoot or visit The TomKat Studio blog!

I recently photographed some In the Rose Garden dresses and it was so fun to see these cuties in them!  The fabrics are so fun and vibrant and they are just perfect for your little princess.   Isn’t it SO much fun to dress up little girls?  I adore my son, and when I find cute boy things it rocks, but there is just something so fun to dressing up a little girl.  My Addison has even learned how to say, “Preee-ty”, and often says it over and over as she touches dresses and clothes.  It starts young, people! 

Check out the beautiful designs at In the Rose Garden for  yourself!

I recently had the opportunity to shoot the new line of vintage headbands for Classy Sassy Girls, and our model Miss Z was a custom request from designer/owner Danielle.  Don’t you think she just rocks these gorgeous headbands?  I first fell in love with the ahhhmazingly chic ruffle dresses from Classy Sassy Girls, and when I saw these stunning headbands, I felt the same way.  Aren’t they seriously to die for?  Love!!  Fan CSG on Facebook + check out more of her fab designs!

Quick, someone call a talent agent!  This little doll is just the cutest little thing, and she is so expressive!!  I get the biggest kick out of the many faces of Miss Z–all of them just so cute you want to squeeze her!  Her big eyes were so glassy and round, her curls were the perfect little ringlets and her sassiness was fit for a princess!  She is fabulous and she knows it! She recently celebrated her very first birthday, so our session ended with a fabulous cake smash…only she already is so posh that she didn’t entirely take to the idea of getting messy.  Loved it!  Thanks, B fam!

Happy First Birthday, sweet baby girl!

This little sweetie and her sis were just naturals in front of my lens.  I had so much fun their beautiful mama’s maternity session, and I was so excited to meet this little Addison Grace (it is, after all, a pretty special name to me!!).  She was just so darling–calm, sweet, beautiful and with the sweetest little serious look.  What a fun session!  Thank you so much, L family!  It was a pleasure!

I recently had the opportunity to photograph some items from the Sunsets and Fireflies new line.  Let me tell you, when I laid eyes on the adorable clothes I just squealed!  The ruffles, the fabric, the colors, the beautiful dresses…oh, the cuteness!  Buddies Addie + Alyssa were our cutie little models…so sweet!  Ambra is the talented designer behind Sunsets and Fireflies–head on over to her site or become a fan on Facebook to check her beautiful clothing out for yourself!

I was so excited for this session!!  The last time I photographed this little man, he looked like this…

Now, six months later, he is still the sweet little angel baby,  just with more smiles and all the cuteness. 

And I just CANNOT resist some baby drool!!!  I LOVE it!!

See what a happy, sweet baby he is?

Just in time for Father’s Day, a sweet moment between this father and his baby boy…

My oh my how this little man has changed!!  I am so lucky that I get to see these special little ones grow up right before my eyes!  I am absolutely looking forward to his one year session, too!!  Don’t grow up too fast, sweet boy!!  Thank you so much for another wonderful session–you have such a perfect little boy, and I am honored to watch him grow!   Enjoy your sneak peeks!

What a super fun session!  I had the pleasure of photographing one of our {mod babe} contest winners again, and this time I got to meet her big bro, too!  I had a blast watching the energetic little guy run and explore.  There were so many fun places to check out, and a ton of beautiful flowers for sissy to hang out in.  Little man was on a quest to find the fish, I tell you!  When we finally reached the water, I snapped away as he curiously and in awe turned his ear and then eye toward the running water.  Where were those darn fish?   Thanks so much, H fam!  It was great!!

Just one of this sweet baby girl for now…more to come!  Loved her session!!
