Sleeping Beauty Rylan

Ok, so I have to admit that I am a little bit late in posting Miss Rylan's 6-month session. About 3 months late, actually, seeing as just last weekend we had her 9-month session. Oops! ;-) But...even though these are a few months behind schedule, they are still too adorable not to post. Here are a few images from Rylan's sweet 6-month session.

Sweet "Sleeping Beauty"...she didn't let the camera keep her from her nap! This might be my favorite image from the session. So precious...


Little Angel...


What a cutie!

And props to Rylan's mom for making that adorable flower headband!

The Best Dressed Boy on the Block

It was smiles all around for this handsome little guy. Even after several wardrobe changes, he was still a happy camper!

How cute is this hat??



And the bowtie...what a well-dressed little man!

The Doctor Will See You Now...

Each year, my sister dresses my nieces in their daddy's scrubs and has me snap a few shots. This is such a fun tradition--partly because we can see how much they grow from year to year, and partly because it's just too funny to watch the little girls play doctor!

Here are a few images of the little doctors in training...say ahh!!

Too Cute at Two Weeks...

Many parents have asked me how long they should wait after their baby is born to have a newborn session. To get the sweet (and a lot of times sleeping) newborn look, I would recommend two weeks old or younger. After two weeks, they will start to move more, which makes it a little bit more challenging to get the cuddly newborn poses. And because they will be sleeping a lot, it's a great time to capture their little hands and feet--they'll sleep right through it!

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of photographing this precious newborn baby girl. She was right at two weeks old at the time of the session, and she was a great model. It was a really neat session. Not only was she adorable, but I went to high school with the new (and beaming!) Mom & Dad so it was fun catching up in between shots.

What a sweet baby girl she is! Just look at those little fingers and toes...

Rebecca & Tim's Engagement Session

This past weekend I had the pleasure of photographing an engagement session for Rebecca and Tim. We managed to beat the heat by starting the session fairly early in the morning. The weather ended being really pleasant--and we were thankful for that! I've posted here a few of my favorite proofs--they're such a cute couple I just had to share. Next on the agenda is designing their wedding announcement using a photo from this session. I'll post that design once it's finished!









Have a great week,
