Baby Sammy | Newborn

Baby Sammy is a little bit bigger now, but his parents are just as enthralled with him as they were the day he arrived into this world. When I have kids, I want to be as joyful about them as Deanna is about her little guy. I have such respect for these two; their positivity is contagious. Baby Sammy is bound to grow up the nicest and sweetest child there ever was.

And now my heart melts. That photo up there on the right? Geeeeez. So sweet!

Can we also talk about how gorgeous Deanna is? This was just a few days after giving birth! Wow, she is a pretty lady. :)

Baby burritos are my favorite thing. :)

Baby Braden | Newborn

This post makes my heart explode. See, Cyleigh (that gorgeous lady up there) and I went to college together and now I'm photographing her baby. What a crazy and serendipitous life this is. I could share some photos of us looking like babies ourselves from freshman year of college, but that would be embarrassing and so not the point of this post! The point is that Braden, Cyleigh and her husband Andrew's new baby, is the cutest little guy. He has such a sweet demeanor and I think his little nose is so adorable. See for yourself ...

Their pup, Baxter, is their first child. :) He is a fierce protector of his family.

That's Andrew's rattle that's been passed down to Braden. So cool!

Baby Beauman | Newborn

Baby Beauman's family is completely smitten with him. This little Italian Stallion is adorable and so laid back. His big brother Greyson is pretty curious about him and gives Beauman plenty of kisses. His mom and dad beam when they hold him. I'd say this guy is loved. :)

Beauman and Greyson's room is SO cute! Their mom, Amanda, owns Baci Designer, so obviously she's uber creative and artsy.

Meet Greyson. He might be the wittiest kid I've ever met.

Beauman looks so much like Greyson here!

Baby Soren | Newborn

This session has a really special place in my heart because this little family goes to our church! I was SO honored when Leigh and Tim asked me to document this new season in their lives. I've come to adore newborn sessions, but photographing a friend's newborn? It makes it that much sweeter.

Leigh and Tim are fantastic parents, and I'm already looking up to them. They both have such calm demeanors, and I'm pretty sure their relaxed attitude has transferred to Soren. I haven't heard him cry once in church! :) These two are also both so intelligent, involved with the community and have hearts of gold. I strive to be Leigh and Tim when I grow up! Soren is a lucky baby boy.

So peaceful.

That cradle is a family heirloom. And because of that, this is my favorite photo of the whole bunch. :) Congratulations again, Leigh and Tim!
