Sweet little Bree turns 1, and was perhaps the best cake smash baby in the history of all I’ve photographed!

When you’re a newborn photographer and your good friends have a beautiful baby, it’s cause to celebrate because that means you get to snuggle and love up on that sweet little boy. Meet Max, the third boy born to our good friends, and forever as cute as his big brothers!

I haven’t seen these two since they were way teeny tiny and they have grown so much! I do have to share a little funny story… I sort of pride myself on my ability to connect with children very quickly. To get to your child to open up and give real, silly smiles the first time they meet me… but sometimes that doesn’t happen. Sometimes someone may take a tumble .32 seconds into the session, and no matter what any of the adults do, there is no kind of happy face going to happen. Sometimes, you just have to know when to call it a day and try again. That’s what happened the first time I saw these little ladies, but we wound up meeting up a few days later – moods were better, the weather was warmer, and we got some of my favorite images of all time. This first one, and the black and white below of the same set up are some of my favorite images ever!

Does anyone remember the baby with the cutest hair in the world? Turns out, she’s now a beautiful almost toddler with even more beautiful hair. How stinking cute is she with her adorable little shoes?

I love me some little Jake. I’ve been photographing him since he was a wee little one, and he’s so full of energy and jokes now. I always look forward to spending time with him, and his dapper wardrobe and perfect politeness are just a bonus!

And for sillies… here Jake is demonstrating Spiderman’s amazing webs for me.

Please take this post as an example of my love for the sitting-but-not-walking age. When I met Audrey, I could not get enough of her. The smiles, the rolly chub of a baby who has yet to master movement, the hair, the sparkly eyes! Oh, I could gush forever… suffice it to say this was a “mini” session that wound up with a gallery a lot more like a full session. Sometimes, I just can’t help myself with the cuteness. Again on this one, I’ve tried to hold back on sharing my very favorite shots in respect of the almighty holiday card. ;)

One of my favorite little peanuts… I’m always a little bummed when my Baby Steps clients complete their first year, especially when it’s clients like these… don’t get me wrong, I celebrate the first year right alongside them, but I know I’ll miss seeing them grow every few months. Addie is obviously absolutely adorable, but what I hope you can sense through pictures is just how awesome her parents are too. From the very first time I met them, I blogged about how comfortable being in their home was. How it just felt like being with old friends, and that feeling has never changed. If anything, it’s grown. They know about my life, I get a little peek into theirs, and this time we chatted about our mutual love of all things pumpkin. If you know me at all, you know these are my kind of people! So to some of my very favorite clients, thank you so much for having me in your lives to capture your beautiful little girl’s first year!

When you cross a referral from one of my favorite families, two gorgeous parents and a sweet little two year old boy on a perfect October morning, you get this. A quick sampling, and I’m going to be honest… I saved most of my super favorite shots for the family’s viewing only since I know holiday cards are right around the corner. Enjoy!
