Mason

Once in awhile, I get the absolute pleasure of photographing a child who LOVES to be photographed, and Mason was one such child! He was SO cute, loved the camera, and actually giggled through most of our session. We did a few different background changes and clothing changes, but this set in my vintage chair was my favorite!




And here's one really cute one from one of the other sets we did.

Carter & Jack

Little Jack wasn't altogether sure he wanted me to take his photo. So, we started with a few of adorable big brother Carter. Love the freckles!

He still wasn't too sure about me, as you can tell by his expression here, but I still love how cute he is with his mama.
Then his mom brought out some sports equipment, and I was able to get some cute ones...
And he even started to have some fun during our session I think!


Crew and Cole

I have been photographing this sweet family for awhile now, and mom reminded me that the first time I ever photographed Cole, he was Crew's age right now! It is so much fun to watch as kids grow up right before my eyes, and to see how families grow right along with them! This first photo just makes me laugh...he's so cute!




And I love this one of big brother Cole!

Elliot & Kendall





Eleanora

Love these! Such a pretty little lady!







Owen

And my last blog posting in a string of one year olds is Owen!





I love this style of photo for Owen where he is looking up at me.  It really puts the emphasis on his BEAUTIFUL eyes.  Seriously, they are some of the sparkliest eyes I have ever seen!  Here is the same type of photo of him from this summer.  So fun to see how they change in a few short months.
What a cute little family!

Grayson

Here's my baby boy...I cannot believe he is a year old already. It literally does seem like yesterday we were bringing him home from the hospital. I know every parent says that about the first year, but I think the time flies faster with two big brothers and all that our family has going on. I sure miss outdoor photos this time of the year, but I have lots of ideas brewing for when the weather is nice once again.

Love the green jeans!



My favorite of the cake smash photos...

Andrew, Emily & Mason

More one year old fun (and big brother too!)...



Mary & Isaac

I have had an influx of one year olds lately! The next four blog postings will be all one year olds (my own included!). Such a great age and fun to photograph!


Big brother Isaac got in on a few, too. Love the purple!

Hayden & Tanner

It's been awhile since I have photographed twins, so I felt a little rusty. We did their session on one of the coldest and nastiest days of the winter, and my heaters weren't working the way they typically do (usually, my studio gets to a nice, toasty 80 degrees or more for my newborn sessions--for this one, I would have been lucky if it was 70 degrees in there!). All of that didn't seem to matter to Tanner and Hayden, however. They took it easy on me and were snuggly and sleepy for most of our session.

 I think it looks like they are telling each other a secret here...
