    James and the giant cupcake

     When I first met James, he was just days old.  Fresh and sweet and teensy weensy.  He had the sweetest toes and perfect little nose.

    I recentlly got to catch up with Sweet baby James and you wouldn’t believe the changes.  He’s got this belly laugh.  It’s so sweet!  And oh how he smiles.  It melts me.   James was in awe of the snow.  He has wide eyes to the world.  Full of wonder and magic.  Oh, and  he loves peek~a~boo and his mama.

    So, After a minute outside we decided to warm up with a cupcake.  You might think this little guy might take his time with a giant cupcake, but he was so quick to smash it I barely got a shot in!  So much fun.  James’s mom Christie went to Butler like me,  so we had lots to catch up on and lots of laughing.

     

     

    I adore this family. I am so grateful to get to photograph the first year of James Patrick’s life.  And I have to add. . . while he’s not quite on the move, James is doing my absolute favorite baby thing!  The SWIMMER.  Love it and you guys!

  • My passion

    This is not my job.

    Being a mommy is my job.  The most important job.

    No, this photography thing is my passion. . . My tears swelling~jump up an down~cheeks hurt from smiling~drive my husband crazy~obsession.  I want it to show.  I want to show you the images from our experience and have you gasp and laugh and squeal~ to have you yell things like “that’s so HER!”  So sure, we’ll get your Christmas card everyone looking, traditional portrait.  But we’re gonna want to print that one of no one looking and everyone laughing on a huge canvas!  You’ll see!

    Let’s have a moment together.  I already wanna do the happy dance.

  • Hogan Family

     

     

    Sometimes it all just comes together.  I first met the Hogan family last summer and we had lovely weather and such a great time.  This time around, we had planned a chilly winter session and look at the day mother nature gave us!  It was 50 degrees and sunny in January!  Karly had just woken up from an afternoon nap and was all smiles right away.

     

    Karly is such a sweetheart!  We had fun singing songs and giggling with her Mommy & Daddy.  Such a beautiful family!

     And as we walked through the late afternoon sunlight, I couldn’t help thinking how fast the magic of childhood goes.  I am so happy I get to capture it.

    Thanks Hogan Family!

  • This Fall

    This fall was a beauty.  It was busy and bustling.  Windy, and hectic.  I met and photographed lovely people.  I probably took on too much to be fully present with in my own mommy moments, but that’s another blog post entirely.  As I revisit the fall I can feel the sunshine on my face as I took these images.  The early morning magic had us aglow in sunshine and joyfulness.  This boy was shy for a second.  but his wide eyes and wider smile took over quickly.  His mother’s face gleamed at him as he played in the leaves with his father.  Proud.  Look closely at their faces.  Their expressions.  Love can stand still.
