I photographed this beautiful woman’s two older children together when I was first starting out, so I was really excited when she called me to ask for a maternity and newborn session for her soon to be third baby, a little girl. I do maternity as mini session add ons to the newborn session. You receive 5 to 10 proofs from which to choose; enough to remember how you looked, how you felt, and capture some sweet moments between the mama to be and her husband. Then I’ll be back in a few short weeks to photograph the new star of the show! I’m so excited to meet the newest member of this family!

This one is my favorite from the session, I think.

What is better than having a photo you love of your child? Nothing, right? If you’re anything like me, you have them all over your house, you feel joy when you get a great one, and you’re probably the one who is always snapping away.

But, that’s also a problem, because it means that you are usually the one behind the camera and thus, there are not many photos you love of you with your kid/s.
I remember on my first Mother’s Day, the only thing I wanted was some photos of me and my son. My husband hired someone as my gift and three years later, that photo is still something I walk past and smile about every single day.

With that in mind, I knew that I wanted to offer that same feeling and that same special gift to all of the mothers out there who need a photo or an updated photo of themselves with their child, so I created the Philadelphia Mommy and Me Sessions just in time for Mother’s Day gift giving (and gift requesting!).

There will be two days of sessions, one in Center City on May 22, 2011 and one in Delaware County on June 4, 2011. The sessions are 20 minutes long and will yield 5-10 proofs from which you can choose. They cost $100 and will include 2 5″x7″ prints. If you want to purchase additional prints, there will be two packages from which you can do so. Session times will run from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m and then again from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m.


You will receive a gift certificate to present on Mother’s Day, too.

When I heard that this couple had had another baby and that they wanted me to photograph him, I was thrilled!  I photographed his adorable big brother when I was just starting out, we did a session with him and his mama as a surprise gift for mommy.  They were both so sweet and so much fun.  And, they still are.  There is so much love and joy in this family, you cannot help but smile when you watch them interact.  They genuinely enjoy being with each other and it truly shows.  Baby brother L is a lucky boy indeed to be joining this family.  Big Brother N is already loving his new role, helping with the baby and zooming trucks around him happily.

D and K, it was my pleasure to get to spend some time with your family.  I only wish that we’d been able to get baby L happy by himself so I could have documented his sweet baby peachiness. Congratulations to both of you on the birth of your second son!  You are truly a blessed, lucky family.

This sweet little peanut just couldn’t wait to celebrate the holidays and ring in the new year with her parents. So, she decided to make her appearance a few weeks early. Her parents were thrilled to make her acquaintance and set about snuggling her right up! And, how could you not? She is just as sweet as can be. This little lady didn’t get her mom’s beautiful hair color, but it seems like she got her pretty blue eyes. And she did get gorgeous, dark hair that will look stunning with those blue eyes – which might be the same color as her cousin X, a regular on this blog. Mr. X baby’s mama and Ms. Sugar and Spice are brother and sister, and I’m sure that these cousins will be having a blast together in no time at all.

And, true to form, I left something behind (my cell phone) as I do at nearly every session I have, and Mama F was kind enough to chase me down with it. Plus, Daddy F carried in nearly all my gear since I couldn’t fit down their street in my car. (He says they have a special, small trash truck for their street. How cool is that?)

F Family, it was my pleasure to meet you all this morning. I hope you will enjoy your sneak peek and I can’t wait to show you the rest of the photos of your sugar girl.

I’m always impressed when parents have the restraint to be surprised by the sex of their baby in the delivery room. But this family was really surprised, to even be there in the first place! This little girl decided to make her entrance three weeks early! She just couldn’t wait to meet them! And with good reason, quite honestly. They are awesome – such a great, supportive team for each other already. Mama has this mommy thing down, even her own mom was impressed. Daddy, too. And, he is just in love with his little girl, too, there was no hiding that. It was easy to see all of the love in this house!
Anyway, thanks, J and J, your baby is darling. I know you know that, I only told you ten million times. And, thank you, baby H, for waiting until I was done! Can’t wait to show you the rest of these. And there are a lot! :)
