Baby J's newborn session

I got to spend an hour with one of the sweetest little men ever. Baby J was so alert for his newborn session. Just checking me out, watching his momma, and trying to eat the blankets. I love when the baby stays awake. It definitely makes them difficult to pose but their eyes make the photo. Thank you to Mom and Dad for allowing me to be part of their newborns first days!



 True to form for a baby boy, he wanted his mommy. So mom had to hold him for most of the photographs. I love this picture. It looks like he's blowing her a kiss.





 


Cannot believe how handsome he was. Beautiful dark hair and perfect skin. 



Mom is obviously doing a wonderful job nursing. This little man is already clubbing out and he isn't even two weeks old yet. 



He tried to convince his mom that he needed to nurse. She wasn't buying it.






This is where baby J wanted to be the whole time.




 


                     
Big Brother came over to check out my camera. Had to snap one of him also. Momma will have her hands full with a 1 year old and newborn, but there isn't any doubt that these two will overwhelm her with love. Two very handsome boys with a loving mom. What more could you ask for!?

Extended family session

 I first met this family when I did this gorgeous baby girls newborn session three months ago. I was asked back to do portraits of the whole extended family. We were having storms, so I was ecstatic that it let up enough to have a few shots taken outside. 

 

 

Grandparents! Both were so sweet. Very happy I got to meet them. I love the way their casual couple shots turned out.



 Any large group shot is challenging, but it helped that they were such good sports. Some of these are composites of multiple photos. Kids were picking noses, eyes were closed, heads turned, but I think we have some winners! haha!



 

These two just got married back in October. Im sure they have had their fill of photos but they indulged me. Good looking pair!








 All little man wanted was to play some lego ninja. He was a trooper. No one likes an hour and a half of getting there photo taken when their are lego villains on the loose!





Grandma with her daughter and granddaughter. All the stockings on the mantle were made by Grandma.

She is too pretty

 




The quote from these two was "Im not sure what I should be doing with my hands."

Pretty sisters. Baby Z was ready to eat. Glad we were able to sneak one in before she got upset.
