Its been a little while since I have done a newborn session and this little girlie was sooo good to me. She hardly peeped the whole session and when she did it was because I was man-handling her HEHEHE…She was such a trooper and soo alert! I swear she was posing for me. 
Enjoy your sneak peek Jesse and Sarah!
I had the pleasure of photographing one of the most amazing families today! In august I was contacted by a friend of this family, she wanted to purchase a gift certificate for a baby shower…She told me that it was for a woman who was expecting twins she also told me of their beautiful three year old daughter who suffers from a rare degenerative disorder called Krabbe Disease, Krabbe disease occurs in about 1 in 100,000 births.
“Krabbe disease is caused by mutations in the GALC gene, which causes a deficiency of an enzyme called galactosylceramidase. The buildup of unmetabolized lipids affects the growth of the nerve’s protective myelin sheath (the covering that insulates many nerves) and causes severe degeneration of mental and motor skills. As part of a group of disorders known as leukodystrophies, Krabbe disease results from the imperfect growth and development of myelin.”
Little “O” was not expected to make it past her second birthday but she will soon celebrate her fourth!! The purpose of my shoot was to capture these sisters together because unfortunately their time is limited…I feel so honored to be able to capture these moments and I just hope I did beautiful little “O” justice.
Newborn shoots are a blast but there are always obstacles …one of which is poop and pee my clients are almost always mortified that their baby just exploded all over my fur rug.
First there is panic and a mad dash for the baby wipes, then I am sure there is worry..”is this woman going to invoice me for a new rug”, then there are apologies, “I am soo soo sorry.” almost always they are the same..
Never fear! everything is washable..and your baby isn’t the only baby to leave their mark…and I am positive they will not be the last.
Here is an out take from my last session…Don’t worry no one was harmed during the making of this photo. hehe
You may recognize this mom from the maternity boudoir shots below…Well, her little bundle of joy came into the world on February 26. at 8 lbs 10oz, it is hard to believe that a baby that big came out of that tiny belly!! 
..and on top of all that can you believe that she is a mother to three children?? For crying out loud I wasn’t that fit after just one baby!
Anyways…back on topic I got the opportunity to photograph Kristin, her little man, and her beautiful four year old girl today and I loved every single second! While taking mom and baby shots her four year old waited not so patiently to hold her brother she was so excited when it was her turn and as you can see she is just in love with him!
Can I just start by saying that I love my job? I love capturing seemingly ordinary moments and showing people how beautiful they are. You may recognize this lovely lady and good friend of mine from the Henna Belly shots I did a couple of weeks ago. The moment I took her pregnancy bathtub shot I knew that I wanted to do a followup with her sweet baby…I bet this scene is pretty familiar to most moms..Cherish moments like this, because they grow up way too fast. Big Thank You to my friend Ingrid for letting me play out my visions.
I totally have baby fever right now. My guy isn’t a baby anymore and I miss when they are too small to fight your kisses off, I miss that fuzzy little newborn head, and I really miss that newborn smell! Baby M totally didn’t help cure the fever! I am so lucky to have lots of friends with babies so I can get my fix and go home! Don’t those squishy cheeks kill you! ….Sigh….She makes my ovaries ache..
Ok I loooove fat babies! Who doesn’t love a fat baby though? I have been lucky enough to photograph this little chunky monkey two times already and she is one of my very best subjects! She totally loves the camera. Can you tell?
