Lucky Lincoln | {Tacoma Children’s Photography}

It’s finally Lincoln’s turn to star on the blog…and although he had to wait a bit, hopefully, it was worth it! This cutie with beautiful eyes turned 6 months old and with being in my “Babe’s First Year” plan, this is his second time up here! As with his cousin, Wyatt, who was up just before him…I’m so lucky to be able to follow him for his first year and watch him grow and change…what a joy! This little guy has the sweetest disposition and although he’s not quite moving around yet, I can tell it won’t be long before he’s exploring and learning all about what has been just out of his reach so far! Lincoln is very observant and will probably be soaking up all that he can learn in his early years! His eyes  will grab you, but I’m guessing his heart will win you over…I can’t wait to see him for his one year session early next year! On this day, he shared the time with Wyatt and the two of them are together are great together…being cousins so close in age, they will have such great memories to share as they grow up together! Mom and Dad, Shawna and Phillip, are very in love with this little guy and it’s fun to watch them all together! Okay…it’s time…check out this cutie!!!!

So great to see you all again, and I can’t wait until Lincoln’s one year session…and to hear the news of your newest little one’s arrival!!  🙂

Wyatt turns ONE | {Tacoma Children’s Photographer}

It was a real treat to see this family again…it had been six months since I last saw them and OH…how I love seeing how the little ones have grown and changed during that time! Wyatt has starred here two times already -as a newborn and then again at six months of age. One of my “Babe’s First Year” baby’s…these little ones become so special to me and not only am I honored to be asked to capture some special memories for the family of their little one…I fall in love with each and every one of the babies…it has to be one of the BEST jobs ever!! On this day, a few days before Wyatt actually turned one…we met up with more than just his parents, Rob and Dianna…Rob’s older son, Dakota, came along as well to join in a few of the photos (love the one of Rob with his “boys!”)…and his aunt and uncle and baby cousin also came along…so we blended them together for some of the photos as well as capturing their own photos. I can hardly believe Wyatt is already one…as I go back through is past sessions…he’s grown so much and has just gotten cuter…okay, I guess I should say “more handsome” to be correct! His sweet little personality is a delight to observe and seeing how he adores his parents and just how tender he was with his cousin, Lincoln, who is 6 months old (coming up in the next blog)…what a treasure it is to see how happy he is and what a joy he is to his parents…I’ve so enjoyed following this little guy during his first year…  So without further delay…here’s WYATT (and his family!)…

Wyatt, I wish you a lifetime of love and joy and Rob and Dianna…you are so blessed with such a wonderful little guy…enjoy and cherish each and every day! Thank you for trusting me this past year to capture some “memories” for you as well as Wyatt!!

All in the FAMILY | {Tacoma Family Photographer}

Families…full of love, joy, sharing and lots of laughter! Well, let me introduce you to this family…of families! The two littlest one are cousins…Wyatt just turned ONE this month and his younger cousin, Lincoln, is 6 months old! Oh, the joys of cousins, being close in age and able to grow up together! It’s one of those amazing things about childhood that carries over to later in life and besides being related, they often end up being close friends! Now, this family is a little more unique than most where they have little ones around the same time. Mom’s of these little guys, Dianna and Shawna, are sisters and twins…and to have children – boys so close together, what a special bond they share as well as their sons! To add to this unique family, the dads, Rob and Phillip, are also related…they are brothers!! I don’t know how much closer you can connect families…such a joy for both families – sharing so much – and so many joyous occasions for both families! I met Wyatt and his parents a year ago shortly after he was born and then when he was six months old, I had the delight of meeting his new cousin, Lincoln, and the pleasure of capturing his newborn photos. Both of these little guys are part of my “Babe’s First Year” and it’s been so much fun to see them so often with the connection!! On this day, not only did we photograph both families together, we also captured Wyatt’s one year photos and Lincoln’s six month photos…watch for those blogs coming up later this week!!

I LOVE this photo…what a wonderful time for sisters/moms/aunts to share the joy of their little ones!!

These cuties were so much fun and I’m excited to share photos with you from each of their sessions…they both stole my heart and I loved watching them together!!
