Baby Lucy | 3 Months

My very favorite thing about baby photography is getting to see these little ladies and gents grow up. It's SO cool comparing Lucy's newborn photos to these 3-month ones. It's only been THREE months and she's so much bigger! I really, really adore her and her family and am officially putting in a bid for Lucy to be the next Gerber Baby. :)

Lucy's actually still pretty tiny, but she does have some cute chunky thighs!

See, Gerber Baby. This one with her mom, Jen, is my favorite!

We took that same photo on the left during Lucy's newborn session. So amazing!

Tallmadge Circle Family Session

Want to see the two most adorable little girls? Well, scroll down because Clare and Maggie will just melt your heart. These two little ladies are so pretty in pink, and dare I say future Miami University students? :)

Fun story: I met Julie, their mom, at Scott Dining Hall on campus where we both worked. Yep, that's right. We mixed smoothies and twisted pretzels for the hungry students of Miami. How CRAZY that I'm now photographing her family! I don't think either of us would have called that one eight years ago!

Julie and her husband, Steve, are fellow Miami Mergers (you know how much I love Miami Mergers … here and here for just a couple examples) and are now doing such a wonderful job raising their two girls in Northeast Ohio. M family, I loved getting a peek into your life. Thanks for having me!

Clare is the most interesting 3-year-old I've ever met. While we were walking to the church in Tallmadge Circle she casually mentioned that it was "pitiful" that it was so cold outside. I couldn't have agreed more, Clare.

Sweet Maggie!

Family hugs are very important to the M family! :)

Baby Wyatt | Newborn

They were convinced it was a girl. Jeanna and Brian decided not to find out the sex of their baby while Jeanna was pregnant (because, as Brian says, "It's one of the few, true surprises in life") … but, still, they were convinced it was a girl. So much so that they didn't really agree on a boy's name before they went to the hospital. And then Brian saw the mop of hair and knew, somehow, he had a son.

Jeanna and Brian are smitten with Wyatt Nathaniel. His pouty lips and hair just like his dad's, his porcelain skin and baby wrinkles--what's not to love?? I so enjoyed spending a chilly February afternoon with these three. Enjoy my favorites!

I love this one. It looks like Brian's already imparting his wisdom on Wyatt.

Jeanna is a beautiful mom!

Love.

Baby Gabrielle | 1 Year

I vividly remember traveling to Karla and Cedric's house on a chilly February afternoon last year. They had just welcomed their baby girl into the world, and she was this tiny, little newborn sleeping in her crib. Already she had these eyelashes that you just knew were going to be gorgeous as she continued to grow. Has it really already been a year?? I can only image how time has flown for Karla and Cedric as they've watched their baby grow into this adorable and active almost-toddler. What a sincere pleasure it's been to keep up with this little girl and her kind parents. Here is Miss Gabrielle at 1 year young!

That personalized birthday book down there was a gift from Jen and Matt and Lucy. How fun is it that all my clients know each other??

So much fun. :)
