This past weekend my husband and I headed out to Tennessee for a long weekend to visit some good friends. And, it just so happens that they have a new granddaughter who is 3 1/2 months old. Abigail is beautiful and one of the sweetest babies I’ve ever seen. She is so happy and easy going and has eyes that light up the room…and her lips…so perfect! As you can imagine, I made sure we had time to get some photos in and it turned out that we worked in a few mini sessions with this little beauty. Abigail is her parents first child and it’s obvious they are totally in love with her and it was fun talking with them as they can’t imagine life without her, yet just three years ago (July 7th) they were married and spent the first couple of years enjoying married life. They are wonderful parents – so relaxed and just loving their new roles and “mom and dad!” I had the pleasure of photographing their wedding, so this was a real treat to be able to photograph their newest addition…I hope that I’m able to help them capture more memories of their life in the future!
This little sweetie woke up to me taking pictures of her…and this is what I got…what a doll!
She has the cutest nursery…and she was quite content just relaxing and taking in everything, especially the butterflies!
This ladybug dress was made for her and her cousin (a year old) and they were both so cute in them!
I love her eyes…they are the prettiest blue and just sparkle when you see them!
Tummy time…not real fond of it, but I am guessing she’ll be moving as soon as she can…she’s a strong and determined baby!
Michael and Allison…congratulations on your beautiful daughter…she is so precious and I can tell that you are a very happy little family! It was my pleasure to photograph her…enjoy these photos until I have the gallery ready for you…there are LOTS of photos…she was just too darn cute to not photograph! Love you guys and Happy Anniversary – a week early!!!
Have you ever met a family and felt like they were meant to be…that it just seemed like their life was destiny? This past weekend I had the pleasure of meeting a beautiful baby, Indy (love that name!!) and her parents, Katie and Jason and that is just how I felt about this family! What a treat it was to spend some time with them and to be able to capture some special memories for them! Baby Indy is three months old and it didn’t take very long to become charmed by this cutie and know that I would enjoy my time with her. Along with her parents, she has two “sisters” who are the four-legged kind…and what great dogs they are…both very gentle and calm and so good with Indy…it was fun to watch how they were with her…every once in a while, they would try to steal a kiss, but mostly they were just happy to be close to her! At the end of the session, they both curled up on the (soft and fuzzy) blanket that Indy had been lying on…I don’t blame them…I wouldn’t mind curling up on it myself for a nap…and of course, we couldn’t resist putting Indy back down on it, in the middle of her big sisters…it was so cute!!
I must admit that I had two great assistants this morning…my hubby and my daughter, who works with Katie…and boy, did I enjoy their help…what a treat…I’m wondering what it would take to get both of them for all of my sessions…thank you Rick and Jess!! So here’s a peek at the session on this cold Sunday morning…
Isn’t this a great looking family…and the two dogs, Lily and Roxy, are perfect bookends for this picture…they were so good…to have two dogs and a baby…all looking the same direction…very rare!
