Hello Hailey | {Puyallup Baby Photography}

This absolutely adorable little one is Hailey, who is now six months old. She first made an appearance here shortly after she was born and I so look forward to when the babies return during their first year. She was full of smiles and plenty of giggles (baby giggles are the BEST!!), during the session and such a relaxed and happy baby. It’s obvious her parents have totally fallen in love with her…even more than from the first session and are ever so attentive! I asked if Hailey was sitting by herself yet…something that is either something most at this age have either just mastered, or are working on. Hailey was working on it, but I think by the end of the session, I’d say, she had come close to mastering it…she had good balance and seemed pleased with herself for her new skill! You will see that this cutie has a great smile and I just love her sweet little nose wrinkle when she smiles…it’s the cutest!!!

These two photos cracked me up…in the first one, Hailey had such a serious look on her face and so dad tried to copy her in the second photo…I think she’s already teasing and playing games with her daddy!!

A mommy’s shoulder is the most comforting place in the world when you are little…whether happy, sad, tired or hungry…it’s always the RIGHT place!OH, how I love watching babies play with…and “eat” their toes…ahhh, the flexibility of a baby, amazing and something I can’t even imagine!! LOLAs you can see…this sweet one is SO very loved by her parents!!I LOVE LOVE LOVE these photos…her sweet smile and expressions will melt your heart!

Oh…shoes, something new and intriguing!!

Hailey was lucky enough to have the Easter Bunny bring her a few new “WubbNub’s” this year…and wow, something that is a great invention…much easier to keep track of and for the little ones…to hold on to!!I must say that these two photos might just be among my favorite from the session…so sweet…mommy & daughter…LOVE!And, Hailey sure loves her daddy as well…it’s heartwarming!!Tags…a fascination that definitely entertains her for quite a while!OH…the cutest expressions…it just never ended!!A big grin and lots of giggles…the best!!A girl and her pearls…starting her young…I told her daddy to start shopping!! LOLA beautiful and very happy family…I so enjoyed my time with Hailey and her parents…and I can’t wait until her one year session!!!

Abigail & Logan | {Puyallup Children’s Photography}

Watching little ones grow over the years, is a a perk of my job…and when the little ones are also friends, it’s even more of a treat to have the opportunity to photograph the stage…and ages! The Swifts have been highlighted here before and it’s always fun to put together their blog to share with everyone. Abigail is turning three…TODAY…she has been a blessing and a delight to her parents and family for three years and as you will see, she’s got quite the personality…that shines through in photos (you should see her in person…it’s even brighter!). Sharing the spotlight with Abigail is her baby brother, Logan who will soon be 8 months old and has added to this wonderful family! He’s a very mellow and easy going baby…who is quite content just watching his sister play and hardly makes a peep…unless he has something to say!! These cuties kept me on my toes and make me work for their photos, but the more work that goes into it, the more fun I have and the more I love the photos…and that is just the case with these!! 🙂

Can you see the sparkle in Abigail’s eyes?!? She is full of energy and lots of creative ideas…I can only imagine what the future holds for her!How can one resist the bare buns of babies…and this photo with Logan and his “new friend” is just too darn cute…of course, he’ll not be happy with this when he’s 16, but I’m thinking his mom and dad will love it!!

Abigail is a wonderful big sister…so thoughtful and caring and always concerned about Logan!She’s very proud to be THREE…and happy to show off her new shirt!Another one that Logan may not like later on, but I love it…and his bright smile is priceless!A special photo with her momma…who as you can see she closely resembles…such a special relationship between these two!!And baby Logan LOVES playing with his momma…as the smile on his face shows!!

What a wonderful family…it’s hard to believe that I knew Michael and Allison even before they were married…and now, look at this sweet family!!

Michael and Allison…thank you for trusting me to capture some special memories for your family…cherish your little ones for they will be grown before you know it! It’s always a delight so spend some time with all of you and to watch your little ones grow!!

HAPPY 3RD BIRTHDAY, ABIGAIL!!

Delightful Logan | {Puyallup Children Photography}

What a treat it was last Saturday afternoon to meet this cute and busy baby…Logan, just 8 months old is VERY active and quite the charmer. Beautiful eyes and long locks that most baby girls would envy…he charmed me from the moment he woke up upon his arrival! It’s not uncommon for a little one to take a bit to get comfortable with my studio, the lights, my camera and of course, me…but Logan was smiling and playing from the word GO!! He was awesome and such fun! I was amazed and impressed when at one point…he crawled a bit and then just stood up…and did a few squats!! For an 8 month old, that is huge and I can see he will be walking SOON and keeping everyone around him quite busy! This is such a fun age…they engage when you talk with them, play with them and their sweet personalities begin to shine through and this little guy definitely made my afternoon!

And, you can see just how much his momma adores him…obviously would do anything for this little guy!!

At this age, EVERYTHING goes in the mouth…and although I can’t imagine just how good it would taste…Logan seemed to really enjoy the wooden fish!!

Both Logan’s dad and mom adore him and it’s obvious he is truly loved…which is what every baby deserves…and needs!!

Is this not the cutest shirt…Logan looks like a little ROCK star…I can only imagine in 20 years that he will love these photos…And, Logan’s grandma joined him for his session and I can imagine just how much she loves this little guy…more than words can say!!SO sweet!!!!!!!!!
