Claire – 7 months – ish

There are 3 great (crucial even) times to photograph children – newborn, when they are sitting and when they are walking. Baby Claire easily sits unsupported but still doesn’t crawl – so it’s an ideal time for a baby shoot! One of my friends once told me that this stage was her favourite – they are at peak ‘baby-ness’ – chubby legs, chubby cheeks and full of smiles. Claire is so ideal to shoot – I came back to shoot her in the orchard, but that’s another post

Quinn – 1 year

You need to be on your ‘A’ game to keep up with this guy! Quinn was all over the park, running, crawling, climbing, and eating what he could find – HILARIOUS! So glad he managed to freeze long enough for a good shot His older brother, although not nearly as busy is equally as cute. It’s always a pleasure to capture these sorts of childhood moments.

Isabella – 10 days

When I saw a message in my inbox from Isabella’s mom, I thought we’d be booking a 1 year session for her daughter whom I shot as a newborn last year. Imagine my surprise to see a request for another newborn session 13.5 months after our first newborn session! It was a pleasure to see mom and dad again and Isabella’s big sister! She has grown into a very cute dark eyed, curly haired little toddler. Both girls are adorable and it was great to capture this special time in this family’s life.

Congratulations again M&B! Your girls are beautiful and I enjoyed my time with you all.

Noah – 8 Months

Baby’s First Christmas

One more session before the holidays. Totally AH-DORABLE!

Aiden is one!

Among the major milestones of life (Engagements, Anniversaries, Weddings, new Birth, Graduations etc) is TURNING ONE. That first year is so full of rapid changes and growth, not mention sleepless nights! Last year we captured Aiden’s birth HERE and a quick one year later I present him to you again, happy as ever.

This portrait is a new fave – love his expression!

Life, Beautifully Captured.

A New Brother

7 days fresh! He is positively angelic and his big brother seems quite pleased to with this new addition to the family. We were able to get plenty of images of him sleeping for the birth announcement – in fact I know I can’t decide which I like best!

K&B it was a pleasure to meet you and your family! It was a fun morning – I’ll see you later this week

Turning One

The prefect session. Perfect. Such a fantastic milestone to capture too, turning One! Truly one of the most joyful little girls I have ever met. She makes me want to shoot one years olds every day.

Fabulous session M&J and baby C – so glad we made it happen when we did.

He’s happy to be here!

What a very easy newborn for me to shoot! He’s 12 days old and this was the 2nd shot out of my camera….

but he wasn’t done with the smiles,

I think I will make him my newborn spokesmodel.

Great to meet you both! Thanks for allowing me to capture your happy new little guy.
