Baby Michael {Puyallup Newborn Photographer}

On a wet and dark afternoon earlier this week, I had a wonderful session with a beautiful little one that certainly made me forget about the dreary weather! Baby Michael is just three weeks old and it was a pleasure to meet him after I had taken his mom’s maternity photos earlier this spring. Michael started out awake, but we were able to quickly “lure” him asleep and he did great through the whole session. It truly is amazing just how strong such a little one will be. He was picking up his head and moving it wherever HE wanted it…a very determined little one who I can see already will be a strong and confident individual. Here’s a preview of our session…he was sooo good…I just love newborns!!
Aren’t baby toes and feet the cutest thing ever!

Miss Abby turns one…

Earlier this week I had the pleasure of photographing Abby who recently turned one! She is a beautiful little girl with the sweetest smile. I will say that she made me work for these photos…she wasn’t her usual happy self as she’s working on cutting several teeth and who can blame her…I sure wouldn’t be happy if I had a bunch of teeth breaking through my gums…I don’t even like a cleaning at the dentist…so she’s go my sympathy! Once she did cheer up and smile…she had me…I just melt when little ones give you a beautiful and natural smile…it’s the best! So, here are some previews of our session…and thanks to her mom, Kristin and her aunt, Kerry…we had a successful session!

Photo Award…

Just wanted to share that a photo I entered in a contest at BetterPhoto (http://www.betterphoto.com/) has received a second place award. This photo has a special place in my heart as it is a photo of my granddaughter who was at her first ballet class and was a bit nervous about joining the other students, so stood by her mom until she was ready to join the others. She is now quite comfortable in the class and fits right in with the others!
