That’s probably how all of their friends think of their house, as “The Fun House”, because they are just so much fun.  Big brother C is full of laughs, mainly brought on by his funny and very silly parents.  I had a great time this morning just listening to them talk to each other and try to make each other laugh.  Dad was even off to do some very fun things later, and Mom and C had big, fun plans, but they still managed to have a great time just hanging out with each other this morning.  And, then there is the baby.  Sweet, loveable, handsome baby B.  What a love this boy is.  He is handsome and cuddly, and a baby who seriously did whatever we wanted all morning, without even as much as a tiny cry when he was hungry.  And the whole family, as you can see, are gorgeous.  (Do you find yourself singing some Black Eyed Peas when you look at Mom?  Me too.) Okay, so they’re either the fun house or the perfect house.  Either way, I had a great time with them today!  C and J (and C and B), you guys are awesome!  I hope you enjoy the sneak peek.  Can’t wait to show you the rest!

I spent Sunday morning with the sweetest and hungriest one month old cutie!  His mama and grandmom were on hand to feed this boy many bottles as we all marveled at his hungriness!  This boy is definitely growing; at this rate, he’ll be a basketball star in no time!  His mom was great at keeping up – she sure seemed more like an old pro than a first time mom.  Baby D is one loved and lucky boy.

Don’t miss the awesome mural in his nursery, done by his very talented aunt!  S, I hope you enjoy then sneak peek!

And, my favorite from the session.

This morning, I got to spend some time with baby J and his parents.  Finally!  Our original shoot date had to be switched after we got an additional oh, 20 inches or so of snow!  So, I was glad to finally get to meet this smiley man and his parents.  He was a delight!  What a darling little boy you have, R and J.  It was his parents quick thinking that got me there earlier than we had originally planned, but just in time to capture all of the happiness that this darling little guy was beaming out!  There was definitely a lot of love going on at this place!  R and J, it was great meeting you and talking mohels.  I hope you enjoy the sneak peek.

How could you not love this smile?  So cute!

I was thrilled when S asked me to do her maternity photos.  She’s an amazingly fun, sweet person to whom I just happen to be almost related.  Her late hilarious, sweet father was best friends with my uncle for most of their lives, so I’ve known her nearly as family for her whole life.  And, now she’s going to be a mama in a few short weeks.  I know that she and her husband will be the best parents!  They’re already great parents to Oliver and Scout, their rescue dogs.  Can’t wait to meet the little one, guys.  (And, I’m still betting it’s a girl!)  Hope you enjoy the sneak peek.

My favorite from the session!

Pretty In Pink (and Skulls)

January 31, 2010

I met Ms. O today along with her very cool parents.  Her dad had me laughing the whole time and it felt like I’d known her mother forever.  And, as usual, I had to rush home and check out the pictures right away!  How could I not?  Between this pretty girl and her cute little upside-down-heart-mouth and her dad’s awesome tattoos, I didn’t know which pictures to look at first!

J and M, enjoy your sneak peek!  Can’t wait to show you the rest of them!

and my personal favorite

I’ve known M for as long as I can remember.  And for as long as I can remember, she has loved horses.  When I was a kid, she would drive me to the barn in her orange sports car to babysit for her adorable daughter while she got her riding fix.

Today, she runs a farm with horses, an emu, chickens, pigs, two dogs and a very cute chinchilla.  She is an amazing, gentle soul.  She is incredibly kind and incredibly strong, she is beautiful, and is someone I admire and enjoy talking to.

I had the pleasure of watching her with the animals and photographing her with them.  You can see how much she loves these animals, and how beautiful they are.  She says that they are like her babies, and you can tell that they know it!

Today, I returned to the home of a recent maternity client to photograph their gorgeous 17 day old son.  He was as darling as a baby can be!  I could not get over his precious little lips, his long eyelashes, and most of all, his little swirl of hair, right in the middle of his forehead.  Once he was asleep, he was sound asleep, and as long as he was kept warm until settled, he mostly let us do what we wanted to.  He didn’t like his beauty sleep being disturbed, but it’s not like he needs to get any more beautiful!  E and R, it was great to meet your little man today.  I hope you enjoy the photos – I knew I wouldn’t be able to wait!  I can’t wait to show you the rest of them.  :)

Yesterday, I met this 13 day old cutie and her parents.  Her dad had come home all the way from overseas just to meet her!  He’s in the Army and came home to meet his newest sweet pea and spend some time with his wife and family.   This little sweet pea must have wanted to spend every waking moment with Dad, because I sure couldn’t get her to sleep!  No matter, though.  With Mom’s gorgeous ink, we got some stunning photos anyway.

She did sleep a little bit, but she only wanted to snuggle her cute little face into the pillow.  So, she wasn’t happy with me moving her so that I could see her cute little face.

Eventually, though, she gave me a million dollar smile.  What a lucky capture!

And one of all three of them.  Love.

It was so nice to meet you, E and T.  Enjoy the rest of your time together!

I had the pleasure of spending the morning with young Mr. X and his lovely parents today.  A mutual friend spotted his mama’s tattoos and passed my name along.  As luck would have it, his daddy has some tattoos too!

This boy was so awake and giving me such intense eye contact, I didn’t want to put him down.  He was such a sweetie!

He didn’t want to sleep, until he discovered the magic that is my space heater.  Then, he was putty in my hands.

I think his parents my have to invest in a space heater of their own!

D and E, it was great to meet you and your little man today.  You guys make excellent photography assistants.  Hope you enjoy your sneak peek!

Today, I spent the morning with the S Family.  First, I hung out with Big Brother S, while Baby Brother M snoozed.  Big Brother S taught me all about Bakugan, and also about the difference between bugs and insects.

Then, it was outside with Big Brother S for some time with Daddy.

Then, sweet Little Brother M woke up and was ready to join us!  He was flashing his million watt grin all over the place!

What a fun family these guys were!  Mom had us all laughing with her stories, and Dad was the best assistant a photographer can have – he got his baby to smile!  Thanks, S Family!  Hope you enjoyed your sneak peek!
