Thanks to the wonders of technology, this post is appearing while I’m 30,000 feet in the air, on my way to Las Vegas. (For geeky photography reasons. WPPI!) I couldn’t leave without just a little sneak peak at yesterday’s session.

Aren’t you excited about what’s to come!? I am!

This little girl is a pretty lucky baby. Her parents are funny, really funny. The love they have for each other and for her already is indescribable. And they may not be a baby out there whose parents are more excited to me her.
Kori and Brian met at a party in college and from the details I’ve heard, they knew almost immediately that they were meant for each other. And really, I’m not sure I’ve met a couple more perfect for each other. From the jokes they told to the stories one would start and the other would finish, they just had a way about them. They were game for anything and everything I asked them to do, and never complained when I stuck them waist deep in wet grass. (I love it when clients trust me!) We dodged rain, dark clouds and freezing wind, but I am so excited about what we got. And Kori, you are simply stunning. You make a gorgeous pregnant lady!
Thank you Kori and Brien for being game for anything and everything. I had a blast in our makeshift flower patch.

Ms. Madison and my baby, Grayson, share a birthday. Because of this fact alone, I knew I would like her. I felt like Renee (her mother) and I have a bond. Labor, childbirth, recent first birthday parties…. We totally did those things together! (Even if we weren’t actually together.) I do also realize that I could just be a stalker wanting people to like me!
We got rained out of our first attempt at shooting Madison’s 1 year portraits, but luckily, we came up with an even better, and even more fun location for the make-up session. Canyon Creek Ranch. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. (And I’m holding myself accountable for taking Grayson there when he is old enough to get on a horse!)
I had a lot of fun with you guys, so thank you Renee and Jason, for being willing to follow me and my crazy antics. I think the photos we got were worth every mud covered shoe!

There must be something in the water in 2010. I’m getting a wave of newborns and LOVING it.
Baby E was one of the sweetest newborns I’ve ever seen. At just under 2 weeks old she was wide awake and taking in the world around her. Despite the white noise, rocking, feeding and cuddles this baby girls just wanted to soak in the day. She was so sweet and calm that it didn’t matter.




The day of her session was storming and wouldn’t you know that the clouds broke the moment she fell asleep. It’s was just spectacular.

It made my heart smile when T told me that she wanted to do some mommy and me pictures with her little girl. As I look back on the last 11 months of my son’s life, I realize that as both the mom and the photographer – I’m all too often behind the camera. And most of my clients tell me they same thing! It always seems to be mom behind the camera.
My favorite part of the shoot, was that T brought her little girl out to Clayton to the very spot where she and her husband were married. T’s face lit up when we got there. I love when my clients pick meaningful locations for the pictures. I think the emotional attachment always shows through.



Thank you T for spending the afternoon with me!

One of my absolute favorite things about becoming a photographer is capturing newborns. Since having my son and really understanding how quickly those first few days/weeks/months truly go, I just cherish getting to spend time with brand new babies. I love seeing their flaking new skin, the tiny tiny hands and feet and just seeing how amazing these little humans are. When my good friend Jenni asked me to take pictures of her baby Blythe, I was not only flattered, I was excited!
Jenni and her husband have wanted a baby for a long time and little baby B is just perfect. It melts my heart to see them with her.
Here are just a few shots of little baby Blythe sleeping peacefully. She couldn’t have been a better baby!



This dress was special to Jenni, so we took a few shots of it. I thought Blythe looked so cute!
