Happy Birthday, Little Man!

I can't believe a whole year has gone by since I did little K's newborn photos. I've been so lucky to get to see him several times this past year and watch him grow through my lens. This little guy LOVES to smile. :) Just look at his happy little face. Can't help but smile back, can you?

Thanks so much for letting me be the one to document his first year, Amy and Kyle! I've loved getting to know and look forward to many more sessions to come. :)

Fashion Saturday and Happy Valentine's Day!

Ok, so I didn't make Friday this week for the fashion ideas. But I'm only a day late. :) So in celebration of Valentine's Day, this week's clothing ideas all have a red theme.

I love the new Villa collection from The Gap. I actually just picked up some very similar pieces at our local GAP outlet. However, the outlet pieces are in white, green and blues rather than the red. But the designs are the same and the cuteness factor is still high. :) Besides, I love green so I was not disappointed!

The boy clothes this week come from Gymboree. Very stylish!

Expecting....

Michelle and Troy are expecting in April! I am so excited. Not only is he sure to be as cute as his big sister, but I get to be the one to capture his newness in those first few days...I am so lucky!

Michelle was such a great model this weekend! I had so many ideas and she just went right along with me. It is so fun to photograph expectant mommies. Sometimes, I don't think we realize how truly beautiful we are when we are pregnant...even when we feel like a house! But what is more beautiful than the promise of new life?

Thanks you guys. It was so fun to spend the day with you! Love you all and I can't wait for the little "man cub" to arrive! xoxo

Fashion Friday

One of the questions I get asked the most is "What should we wear?" And it's true, what your child wears to a photo session is very important. After seeing a fellow photographer post something similar on her blog, I have decided to showcase some clothing and outfits that would be perfect for photo sessions. Hopefully, this will get some ideas flowing for you! This is just a starting point, but if you like what you see I will provide a link to the store.

Spring is on its way. The spring lines are in the stores now and oh my, there is some CUTE stuff!

This week I have chosen clothing from The Gap and Old Navy.

First, for little boys (size 0-5T) from Old Navy. They are having a great sale too!



and for little girls, also from Old Navy. I was hoping to find a cute pair of rubber boots to pair with the striped tights and skirt, but Old Navy didn't have them... that would make this outfit to die for!



Here are a few more adorable choices for little girls, this time from
Baby Gap. These are from their Lawn Party collection in their toddler girl line.




and for toddler boys...layers are key. Baby Gap




Oh how I love green. This little green top is just too cute... paired with the yellow short cardigan and bright white capris. Does this scream Spring Is Here or what? For bigger girls, from Gap Kids



and the ultra cool, older boy in your life... most from Gap Kids. The polo shirt and bracelets are from American Eagle kids line 77 Kids. Cool stuff there!



Hope these were helpful. I will be posting more in the weeks to come. Remember, you can always email me with questions! :)
