Wyatt…6 Months Old | {Puyallup Baby Photography}

Wow, it’s hard to believe that it’s already been six months since I first met little Wyatt and his parents, Dianna and Rob, late last summer! Now, Wyatt is 6 months old and is so stinkin’ cute…and such a sweet little guy, I can only imagine how much his parents have enjoyed watching they beautiful son grow and become a little person since his arrival! I’ve said this before and will continue to…I love my job, and meeting such wonderful people and the fact that I get to play with the little ones, is the BEST…and I can only imagine how much fun Wyatt’s one year session and cake smash will be…this little one has personality just popping out everywhere! I had the pleasure of seeing Wyatt a few days before his session when he came with his new little cousin, Lincoln, for his newborn session. It’s wonderful that these little guys are so close in age and how much fun they will have as they get older…they are both such blessed babies and both have great parents!!

What a neat family…I am really enjoying getting to know all of them!!

SUPER cute dinosaur hat…Wyatt was totally rocking it!!



This little guy is definitely the sparkle in his mom’s eyes…I love seeing this!!!

As well as his dad’s special little guy…how lucky is Wyatt!!


A favorite toy is always a plus during a session…since it’s all about play, anyway!

 

His outfit was great…right down to the feet…LOVE these little shoes!!



Check out Wyatt’s eyelashes…O.M.G. they are the longest and he has the most beautiful eyes…heart breaker, already!!





Maybe a little bashful?!!??





I love the little chubby arms and hands…this little one is just perfect!



We are getting a bit tired…



And, he was done…ready for a nap!

Wyatt was a delight and I so enjoyed talking with his mom and dad again…and hearing all about the first 6 months of Wyatt’s life. It’s a joy to follow babies during their first year when they are a part of my Babe’s First Year plan…and it warms my heart each session to see how happy, beautiful and healthy these little ones are – and how lucky each one is to have such loving and caring parents!

Dianna and Rob…so great to see you again and I can’t wait until Wyatt’s next session!!

Baby Lincoln | {Puyallup Newborn Photography}

There’s nothing more exciting than a new little addition to a family…and this little one, Lincoln, was welcomed by his parents, Phillip and Shawna, and is truly a blessing to them as well as their families! He arrived about a week early and is just perfect…10 little fingers and 10 little toes…the cutest nose and the sweetest, soft little cry. The day I met Lincoln and his parents, he was just 12 days old and was sound asleep upon arrival. I so love the little ones…I get to cuddle, snuggle and smell these sweet, precious babies and each and every one is a delight and I so love watching “mom and dad” with their new baby…it’s always an amazing sight…one that I will never tire of seeing! Such a precious gift and such love beaming from the parents…and these new parents are truly in love with their new son!

Oh, how I LOVE a mother with her new baby…melts my heart and brings tears to my eyes every time!Safe and protected, in his daddy’s arms…little Lincoln is content and peaceful!A beautiful new family is created!

From the tippy top to the tippy “toes!”

Hmmm, if only we knew what he was thinking!!

Is this not the SWEETEST little face, ever!!

Oh, how I live the “little bits” of babies!

Peaceful and innocent…

You can just feel the love these parents have for their new son!Lincoln brought along his “big” cousin, Wyatt, and we couldn’t resist a couple of photos of the two of them. Aren’t they adorable in these owl hats?!!!

And, these super cute ties and diaper covers were made by Wyatt’s mom…what talent and perfect for Valentine’s!

It was great to see Wyatt, I hadn’t seen him since his newborn photos and he will be next up on the blog as he came in later that same week!

Sleep tight, sweet Lincoln!

Phillip and Shawna…your new son is beautiful and I was thrilled to meet all of you and capture some memories for your family…I look forward to seeing him grown during his first year and capturing some more memories for all of you! Congratulations!!!

Aaron & Elizabeth…At Last | {Puyallup Engagement Photography}

Aaron and Elizabeth…at last is their moto and are they ever excited about the “at last” part! They are finally getting married and as you will see from the photos, they are so in love with one another, it just beams through in their photos! I had met Elizabeth a couple of years ago when I shot her business portraits as well as their darling daughter, Aryianna! Elizabeth is a realtor and so when we met last summer to talk about purchasing a rental home, she share that she was engaged…and the wedding is set for this coming August! We talked a bit about the details, but then went on to the house discussion. This past fall, we started talking about the details and planned for some engagement photos after the first of the year. We met up in South Prarie and then headed out past Carbonado to this great old (one way) bridge for the photos. After a week (or more!) of fog, cold and even some rain…we had a dry day and even some sunshine, although it still was quite chilly! A gorgeous location and the view of the river below was spectacular! I hadn’t met Aaron before, so it was nice to get a chance to visit with him and to see Aryianna again…she’s a sweetheart and very excited about her “job” at the wedding as a flower girl…she will be the CUTEST one ever!! This couple is so grounded, they know what they want, what’s important in life and truly value their family and friends…I loved spending time with them and am so excited for their big day this summer!

This is their motto…AT LAST…as they’ve been together for 12 years and everyone is finally say “at last” you are getting married!

Such a special part of their lives, Aryianna, is not only a beautiful girl, but very sweet and bright! Their dog, Jersey, also joined us for some of the photos…the complete family!It was definitely chilly, so I tried to give them every opportunity possible to snuggle to warm up…and they didn’t seem to mind it a bit!!

Couldn’t resist Aryianna and Jersey together…the “kids” and since Jersey is getting older, I wanted to be sure to capture some photos of Aryianna with Jersey!I LOVE the look of total adoration that Elizabeth has for Aaron…it’s a beautiful thing to see!The smile and sparkle in Aryianna’s eyes is the sparkle that I love seeing in children and this cutie has such a great personality…I could spend an entire session with just her!And, Aaron has that same look for Elizabeth…complete and total love!!

At last…the date has been set, plans are being made and it’s going to be a beautiful and fabulous day…not only for Aaron and Elizabeth, but for all their family and friends who are there to celebrate this wonderful occasion with them! I can’t wait!!
