Infant Session: Adeline

Sweet Adeline had the best attitude about her photo session. She was so easy, especially for all the propping and changing that we did to her. Her Mom wanted to get some Christmas shots for card purposes, but also wanted to get some shots in Adeline's cute nursery. Her Mom put so much thought into her nursery and it showed. Until next time Miss Addy!

Infant Session: Lorelei

Took pictures of precious little Lorelei recently. Mom, Dad and Big Brother Ryland got in on the action too. Whenever I do an infant shoot I will tell the Mom to include any fun outfits that she thinks might make for good pictures. Well, Lorelei's Mom did not disappoint. She brought a whole bag of outfit changes for Miss Lorelei and they were all so cute.

Family Session: The G Family

We recently took some family shots of the G Family, as well as some newborn shots of their new son Blake. I took pictures of Big Brother Kaden before when I took product pictures for Progeny, Inc. I was thrilled when I got an email from Blake and Kaden's mom asking me to take their family shots. I remembered Kaden being such a cute kid with these amazing blue eyes, and I was certain little Blake would be just as cute. We had a good time taking shots all over the Arboretum.

Kaden was really into using his Dad's blackberry as a toy. When we gave him a play break he took the phone behind this tree. I guess he had some deals to work out in private.

Infant Session: Tristan

I took some pictures of Baby Tristan recently. His mom and I were in the same sorority at Baylor (Sic 'Em!) but hadn't really been in touch since the good 'ole college days. So I was very excited to get an email from her asking if I would take some infant shots of their soon-to-be son! And I guess Baby Tristan got excited about his photo shoot as well because he ended up arriving about 4 weeks before his due date! We had such a good time during this session and I enjoyed getting to catch up with Tristan's Mom and Dad.

This is why I think he got so excited about his upcoming photo shoot. Look at those baby model skills! Thoughtful pose, intense eyes....male model in the making!

Infant Session: Camille

A month or so ago I took maternity pics for my friend Jen about a week before sweet Camille made her debut into this world. Jen wasted no time in asking me to come over and get some infant pics of Camille, Big Sister Ellie, and the rest of the family. I could take pictures of this family ALL day, much to the chagrin on Camille's Dad. Thankfully, he obliges my indulgence.



Big Sister Ellie never fails to crack us up. She has definitely got the system down too. Every time she sees us she thinks it is time for a lolly-pop because that is her reward during photo sessions. Five pictures, two licks on the lolly-pop. And repeat.

Infant Session: Benjamin

We had such a fun time at little Ben's newborn shoot. His mom works with me and I was so honored when she asked me to take Ben's newborn pictures. I also had the privilege of taking Mom's maternity pics as well, so I've been with Ben throughout this whole pregnancy process. I was so happy to meet him and snap some pictures of him.

Ben's nursery is very funky and retro-cool. All oranges and browns, owls and giraffes. I couldn't resist putting him on his orange rocker because I suspected it would make for good background. Little Ben couldn't resist taking a small bathroom break on the orange glider! Oh well, such is life during an infant shoot!

I think we know where that cute head of red came from!

Cutest little diaper cover ever!

Can't wait to watch you grow up, Ben!

Infant Session: Rory

Met up with a great client of mine last week to take some newborn pics of her little girl. Normally, I take newborn pics at the client's home, but this particular Mom wanted to get outside and take advantage of all that great natural light! So one quick trip to the Arboretum later and we have some really great newborn pics!

Of course, we had to get Big Brother John in on the fun. He is already such a sweet and caring Big Brother. I can remember taking his infant pics when he was just a little older than his little sister. How time flys!

We thought we were done for the day, however, while we were leaving we passed another row of the gorgeous pumpkins on display at the Arboretum right now. We hadn't intended on this being a "fall" shoot, but we just couldn't resist having some fun with these fall wonders.

Happy Fall everyone!

Infant Session: Jacob

Took photos of little baby Jacob last week. His mom was a referral, so it was great getting to meet her and take pictures of her precious newborn. I took husband/assistant along and he was happy to see all of the stuffed monkey's that adorned little J's bookshelves. Evidently Jacob's dad bought him a stuffed monkey when they found out they were pregnant, and the monkeys just kept coming!

The session started out like so many infant sessions do. A few moments of tranquility...

...followed by some fusiness. Modeling is hard y'all!

Then after a quick feed and some soothing...sweet sleep.
