I first met this little guy when he was only five days old.  Needless to say, he’s changed A LOT in nine months!  :D  He is also absolutely adorable.  I just wanted to pinch his cheeks during the entire session.  Can you blame me?

You know you want to pinch those cheeks, too!  :D  This little guy was so serious in the beginning…I couldn’t get him to smile at all.  He would just look at me like “Lady, are you crazy?” or I would get the stunned look:

I think the flash startled him!!  LOL  After a while he started to warm up to me.  He has such an adorable giggle.  :)

And a few more of my favorites:

It was so great to see you all again!  K is turning into quite the handsome little guy, and I can’t wait to see you all again.  :)

As soon as I met J and P I knew this maternity session would be a lot of fun.  They were both laughing and smiling and just so friendly!  We had lots of giggles and laughs, and J makes an absolutely stunning mom-to-be.  :)

She loved the blue wrap I use for maternity sessions, and I can understand why.  She looks gorgeous in it!

I’ve been trying to mix up my maternity sessions a bit by throwing in different poses and props, and I am loving these shots with the fabric in motion.  I was torn between the color and black & white version of this photo, but I think I prefer the black & white.

J and P were also very affectionate which made for some seriously sweet photos…like this one…aren’t they cute??  :)

And these silhouette photos are always some of my favorites.  So simple and elegant.

I believe Baby Girl made her appearance shortly after this session, so congratulations you two!!  I can’t wait to see her.  :)

I realized I don’t share enough personal photos on this blog, so I thought you all might get a kick out of this portrait session.  Why?  Because it’s my sister.  :)

She and her boyfriend came in with their two “kids”:  Maggie, the yellow lab, and Toby, the one who looks like a Rottweiler.

I was a little nervous about this session because my sister hates to have her photo taken almost as much as I do!  And I wasn’t sure how she’d mange with me being the photographer.  :D  But she was a total champ and we had so much fun!

I think Toby might disagree with me, though.  That poor puppy thinks I’m trying to steal his soul every time I take his picture, and you should see the looks he gives me!  It’s hilarious.

Anyway, if you know my sister you know she is anything but traditional.  So we had a crazy fun session, and I can’t wait to photograph them again.  :)  Without further adieu, the photos…

My sister, Tricia.  Isn’t she a cutie patootie?

The “family” portrait.  And yes, that’s Toby sneaking off in the background.  LOL

My sister with her nieces and newphew.

This might be my favorite family portrait ever.  :D

Aren’t they just so freaking cute?!?!  This session was a lot of fun, and I really do hope they’ll come back in the studio more.  Hey, Trish…call me!!  :D
