I love when parents choose to do a baby’s first year plan. It’s so much fun getting to watch the baby’s grow up and see how much they change. Last time I saw Jayden she was just a few weeks old. Now, she’s a big 8 month old! Sitting, smiling, and almost crawling! My favorite age! Next up will be her one year photos. Time is flying by too fast! For now, here are my favorites and a little slideshow!
Are you all getting sick of these cute newborns yet? I’m not!
Meet Baby Hudson. This cute little guy belongs to Courtney of Joyful Weddings and Events. Hudson was 8 days old when we shoot his session. Isn’t his full head of hair so adorable? Hudson really didn’t like laying on my tree stump (who can blame the kid?), but once we did get him to sleep I got some of my favorite newborn pictures ever! Can’t wait to watch him grow. I’m sure he’ll be just as fun as his big brother! Congrats Courtney and David and thanks for driving up so I could take his pictures!
My new favorite newborn shot
I typically have a strict rule that I only shoot “newborns” within their first 10 days. It’s when they are sleepiest and snuggliest and it’s much easier for me and the parents. Taylor contacted me and told me she really wanted to try the shoot even though her little guy, Cash, was almost a month. I had my doubts, but Cash was a doll! He really did a great job for not being a new newborn. It’s crazy what a difference a couple of weeks makes because he made so much eye contact and he was so strong. I loved working with him and his wonderful parents as well!
And one of my favorite shots to date
I am passionate. I am a mom and a wife. I am loyal. I am driven. I am a photographer… and not in that particular order. I included photographer in the “I am” list because photography is more of who I am rather than what I do. My connection to clients runs deeper than snapping shots of momentous occasions, but rather capturing the occasions that are momentous. My passion is to find those moments and document them frozen in time.
Yes, I am the photographer who will end up crying as you recite your vows and laughing as you joyously depart for your honeymoon. I’ve always felt the need to connect with my clients on a personal level to capture photos that relive the emotion of that singular moment, with the personalities that are spontaneously original and
completely unplanned.
My gift is capturing the moments that will eventually be momentous… because photography is part of who I am and not what I do.
