Baby Lucy | Newborn

Baby Lucy came into the world a little earlier than expected. She's a tiny little thing--especially at 8 days old when she was photographed--but curious and feisty (check out that karate kick down below!) and sleepy, of course. She is a lucky lady to be born to Jen and Matt, who so obviously adore her and want to make her the happiest little girl on earth. I love these soft, light photos and think they're perfect for this baby girl.

What a sweet babe.

This little girl is Baby Lane's cousin. I bet they'll grow up being the best of friends.

Baby Belen | Newborn

It was a cold and snowy December day when I arrived at the E family's house, ready to take pictures of their brand-new baby girl. Inside the house it was warm and oh-so-cozy, just right for little Belen. This little lady was just a few days old when she was photographed. She was SO easy to work with, and I had fun capturing all her facial expressions. I'm also convinced she's going to be a dancer or a gymnast because she kept her legs moving and her hands were constantly poised (see above … all you gymnasts know what I'm talking about!).

Every time I do a newborn session, I love it more and more. Enjoy my favorites from Miss Belen's session, with appearances from her brother, Logan.

I love when newborns are awake for some of their session. You can see a little of their personality already forming!

My heart melts.

Thank you E family!

Baby Ethan | 5 Months

Let me introduce you to Mr. Serious, also known as baby Ethan. This darling 5-month-old couldn't figure out why he was outside in the chilly weather with a camera in his face but he went along with it, bow tie, cardigan and all. What a sport. :)

I met up with Ethan and his parents on an unseasonably warm November day right in the middle of Wade Oval. (I love that spot. Note to all future clients planning sessions!) Baby Ethan got cuddled and kissed quite a bit. I'm pretty sure his parents loved having an extra excuse to cuddle him. As if they need an excuse!

THAT is the definition of a little man.

The only time Ethan broke his seriousness was when his parents lifted him high in the air. Who wouldn't giggle at that??

You three are beautiful!

Baby Nora | Newborn

Baby Nora is so loved and adored by her parents. It was such an honor to witness that outpouring of love from behind my camera, and it makes these pictures so sweet. What a lucky little girl Nora is. This tiny lady was just 10 days old when we did these photos. She was a champ and just did her thing while I worked around her. Thank you for being so wonderful, Nora!

Hand shots are some of my favorites. I love the contrast between mom's hand and baby's.

Nora, I see many good hair days in your future!

Sweet baby. My job is the best.

Nora's dad, Jacques, is from Haiti and speaks French, as well as English. A French onesie is only appropriate.
