Baby Wyatt…LOVED | {Puyallup Newborn Photograhy}

Another very handsome little guy gets to make his debut on my blog! Little Wyatt was just 13 days old when I met him…and his parents. He was asleep when he arrived, but soon woke up and it was obvious he didn’t want to miss a thing during the session. He was awake most of the session, and seemed just happy to be observing everything…as long as he was cozy and comfortable.  A lovely evening in August, there isn’t much better than hanging out with a new baby…and of course, his parents! I’m sure blessed to have the opportunity to meet and photograph these new little people. And, better yet, when I get to watch them grow up…oh how I LOVE it!!

Mom and dad are sure beaming with pride and joy as they look upon their new little son. Wyatt was loved before he was even born, but seeing the bond that has developed in such a short time with his parents…truly amazing and such a gift for both he and his parents!Just look at how alert little Wyatt was…he was like this a majority of the session!When he finally gave in and fell asleep…he was OUT…as you can see, so relaxed and cozy!!!I can’t tell you just how many smiles this little guy gave me during the session…more than I’ve ever had from a newborn…such a happy and content baby, he was the best!!LOVE the long eyelashes…the little details are the sweetest!!Baby Wyatt…loved and adored by his mom and dad…and although he’s changing their lives forever, I know they wouldn’t change a thing about it.

Rob and Dianna…I thoroughly enjoyed meeting you and Wyatt and look forward to seeing you all again in a few months…to see your little guy grow and change makes my job the BEST!!

Sweet Logan is here! | {Puyallup Newborn Photographer}

If you haven’t figured out in the past few months just how much I enjoy babies…then maybe you haven’t see all my posts on BABIES!! And, here is another one…just as sweet and adorable as all of the others…oh, boy (boy, this time!)…do I ever love my job, especially when I get the little ones! This little guy was just a week old the day he came to visit me (with his family in tow!) for his session! Logan Michael Swift arrived on July 24th and was welcome by mom, dad and big sister, Abigail! Of course, you’ve seen Abigail here before, she’s had her own “staring role” here, but this time, little brother gets the headline!! This family is special to myself and my family…we met dad (aka Michael) when he was about 4 years old in Tennessee and have been GREAT friends with his family ever since. We’ve been through such great times in their lives and this is another highlight that has been wonderful to share with them! I had the pleasure of meeting Logan the night he was born and capturing a few photos for them to share with their families…who live in Tennessee.

Little Logan is precious and so sweet to cuddle…and loved EVER so much by his parents and big sister. A new life for this family and such a blessing to them, a beautiful and healthy baby boy has now joined this happy family…to add even more happiness and joy to their lives!

I think I might even see a smile on Logan’s face…he’s obviously quite happy to have joined his parents!OH, how I love when parents cuddle their new babies…there isn’t a sweet sight…it’s so tender and heartwarming!Love this little face…so innocent! A side note…near the end of Logan’s session, he lost his umbilical cord…glad we got some photos with it in!!Bottom to top…literally…the cutest little bum…and SO much hair!!!
Abigail now has to share her mom and dad, but I think she will LOVE sharing with Logan…she’s so excited to be a big sister!!
See what I mean…a ton of hair…oh, how jealous the little girls with hardly any hair will be!!A very special visitor came out to meet Logan…his Nana, who is a dear friend of mine and I couldn’t let her leave without a few photos of her with her grandbabies!!I wonder what he’s thinking…..Little toes…I’m a sucker for the “little bits” of babies!!!One of my favorites…such a tender moment.Welcome Logan…I look forward to capturing some more memories as you grow!

Congratulations Michael and Allison on your very handsome little boy, he’s a cute as can be and I am so happy for all of you! Enjoy and cherish each and every moment…for they grow up far to quickly!!

Welcome to Ava | {Bremerton Newborn Photography}

The best gifts are those that are unexpected, or maybe not expected when you receive them! This beautiful little baby, Ava, came about 3 1/2 weeks early, not what her parents expected, but what an incredible blessing she is to them! Besides her parents, she joined her big sister, Brylee, who I had the pleasure of photographing over two years ago for her newborn photos as well. I had been on vacation and while I expected to come home and soon be planning a trip to meet Ava, I was surprised when I received an email saying she was here already…wow, this little girl certainly had her own idea of when she was going to enter the world! This family is always a delight to be around and photograph and on this happy occasion, it was even better to share such a joyous time with them. It had been just a week before I left on vacation when we did mom, Jessica’s, maternity photos…boy, what a good thing we did them early, or it wouldn’t have happened! Life with two precious little girls will keep mom and dad, Rick, busy, but oh, the love, memories and the blessings they have ahead of them are truly priceless! Big sister, Brylee, certainly loved little Ava and is very tender and gentle with her…I can see that besides being sisters, they will become great friends and that special relationship with last a lifetime…what wonderful adventures and memories they have ahead of them!!

Meet Ava Joy, just 13 days old!

Congratulations, Rick and Jessica, your new daughter is beautiful and so very sweet! I loved the time with all of you and can’t wait to capture more memories for all of you in the year ahead! Enjoy each and every day, they are precious and you will see just how quickly your “babies” will grow up…cherish it all!
