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!

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. :)

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 Lane | 18 Months

I'm not so sure Lane is a baby anymore, but I've called him "Baby Lane" for so long it just seems natural. :) Let me just say that I am so grateful to this little family. They were the very first ones to book me for newborn photos, and during newborn baby Lane's session I learned that I love doing lifestyle newborn sessions! These three, sadly, just moved away from Northeast Ohio. They came back for this fall session, and I was super happy to see them again. Enjoy my favorites of this handsome guy ...
