Content…

I can think of no better word to describe this little boy than content.  When I arrived for his session he was sound asleep which gave me an opportunity to visit with his mom and hear the story of baby “N”.  At one point in the conversation she pulled out some old family photos explaining that she had been looking through them to see if there was any resemblence to anyone from past generations.  I found the photos so intriguing and was inspired to re-create the vintage look of her treasured heirlooms on one of the shots from her session (see image 5).  Also, see if you can spot a little something poking through his bottom gum in image #1.  My guess is that it won’t be long and baby “N” will have a new tooth!

Ruffles and frills…

Frilly dresses and lace socks…it doesn’t get much more “girl” than that.  Little Miss “A” has a closet filled with the most beautiful clothes.  It’s always such a treat helping her mom decide what to dress her in for our sessions.  I had to laugh though because we picked out the frilliest, prettiest dress in the bunch and what does she do (see image 1)?  Classic!

Charmer…

This young man is quite the charmer…so full of personality with a dash of sweet innocence.  A perfect combination if you ask me.  Based on the time I spent with him, I predict he will go far in this industry.  Keep up the good work kid-o!

Paper Goodness…

What an honor it is when clients entrust me with designing and creating pieces to announce special events in their lives.  This particular client wanted a custom birth announcement showcasing a few of the images from our newborn session and oh, the fun I had working on it!

Here’s looking at you, kid…

There are those who simply delight being in front of the camera.  This little girl is one of them!  She stepped up on her “stage” and put on the performance of a lifetime.  Take a look at how she responded when her brother wanted in on the action.  (See 4th image)  Ha!  Could she be an Academy Award-winning actress in the making?!  You tell me.

The image that earned the “title”:

Not only can she dance…

but she can pose as well! Yes, folks…she came up with this all on her own:

Then it was her brothers turn…

Even though he took her spotlight for a moment, secretly she still thinks he is the best big brother in the world.

376 days old…

This session was supposed to take place on this little girl’s 1st birthday but the Minnesota weather forced us to reschedule.  Instead I captured her at 376 days-old and let me tell you…I don’t think we could have timed it any better if we tried.  Oh, the fun we had!

The following image earned a spot as one of my all-time favorite images after her Mom told me the story behind the book.  A sentimental treasure to say the least.

Eye Smiles…

It’s not very often I meet someone who can smile with their eyes, but this little girl has it down to a science.  She is obviously a very happy baby whose parents absolutely adore her.  I wish you guys the best as you make your way back to California!

Nostalgic…

I’m not sure what it was about this beautiful little girl but I was struck with an overwhelming sense of nostalgia during her session. Maybe it was her Jackie O.-inspired sunglasses or the blanket her Great-Grandma made for her?  At any rate, she definitely had the look of a child from the days gone by and what a joy it was to have an opportunity to photograph her.

Belly Laugh…

Some of you might remember this little girl from a family session I posted last fall.   Well…she just celebrated her birthday so we met again to document her at the busy age of 3.   It was raining and freezing cold that day so we ended up at the loft where she made herself right at home.  Throughout most of the session she kept looking over at the bag her mom brought along as though there might be something very important hidden within.  After a while, I asked her what was in there and without missing a beat she ran over to the bag and pulled out a hat.  She sat down, put on her hat and broke out into an honest to goodness belly laugh.  She was so excited about her little green hat.  So fun!

Curly Top

Surely, there could be no title more fitting for this little guy than “Curly Top”. Those blonde curls were unlike any I’ve ever seen before and don’t they suit him well?!
