If you’ve spent anytime following my blog I’m sure you’ll remember Madison from here and here

I love having the wonderful opportunity to capture a child as they grow up. Children grow up in the blink of an eye. It seems like one moment you’re watching them smile for the first time and the next you’re chasing them down the hall as they’re giggling and trying to get away from you. Photography is wonderful because it’s such a great way to capture memories that will last a lifetime.

Doesn’t she have the most gorgeous eyes? I absolutely LOVE this picture!!

Have I mentioned that I love working with newborns? I would never have guessed that itty bitty Tessa was a month old, I seriously wanted to steal her and take her home! I’m sure her mom wouldn’t mind right?

Meet Colin, he was AWESOME to work with!

This little sweetie was so perfect to work with. I love shooting newborns, everything from their tiny toes to that sweet newborn smell just makes me melt.

This little guy was all smiles when we met up and he did not stop running the whole time!

The M Family was a blast to hang out with. You might remember Ashley and Brent from a long time ago. This time I had the chance to meet all of Brent’s family too! Ashley has been waiting very patiently to see these so without any further delay!

I love this shot of Brent’s parents, it’s so refreshing to see marriages that stand the test of decades.

This family loves, loves, LOVES their sports. Just don’t try to get on everyone’s good side and name your favorite team because it’s guaranteed that someone won’t agree!

The G family was so much fun to hang out with, I almost forgot I had a ‘job’ to do while I was there.

Aren’t they such a cute couple?

This little darling was such a happy baby.

My FAVE from this session, you can tell she just adores her daddy.

Isn’t this darling just make you want to eat her up? She’s also an awesome dancer, oh and definitely has a sweet tooth!

Don’t you love those eyelashes?

This little guy was perfect to work with!

Big sister was so proud of her little brother and already helping take care of him.

Are you ever at work and wonder if you can pay them because you enjoy your “job” so much? That’s how I feel when I’m taking pictures. I love the interaction with people and having the wonderful opportunity to capture those rare moments and record them for years to come. OK sorry for the tangent, sometimes I just can’t believe how blessed I am that my clients will open their lives to me so I can capture and share those precious moments.

Another thing I love? I love shooting newborns, their sweet smell, their innocence just EVERYTHING about holding teeny tiny babies makes me remember that there is good in the world and makes me so grateful I have the best job in the world. I had the awesome chance of meeting Emma and Eli a week after they came home from the hospital. They were born 8 weeks early and were already a month old but were so tiny at just over 4 pounds each.

I love how Eli keeps trying to push Emma out of the way in this one, sibling rivalry has already started.

I think these next two would look great hanging next to each other!

I love the back wrinkles!!
