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!

Yet another CUTE one year old!

Boy, am I blessed, or what…two one year old girls in two days…it doesn’t get much better. Not that I don’t like boys, I love the boys as well, but it’s been so much fun with the girls the past two days…and what cuties they both are!

This morning I photographed Erica for her one year photos (she’s a little over a year) and have been waiting for her to turn one since she was born…I was fortunate to be able to do her mom’s maternity photos, then some newborn ones and a few here and there, throughout the past year…and now, this little one is getting bigger and a year old…it hardly seems possible! Erica brought her mom and big sister, Alanna, with her and we started out with some photos of Erica and Alanna before we lost Alanna to playing with my granddaughter (Jayden) since they so enjoy each others company when they are together. After that, the spotlight was on Erica and she was great…I absolutely love her adorable little faces she makes, it’s so darn cute and I confess, I’m even including a photo of her crying because I just love the expression…but she really didn’t cry much, just when we stopped her from what SHE wanted to do. One year olds are great…so cute, sweet and yet beginning to develop their own “independence” and mind of their own…what a wonderful transformation from baby to toddler…I’m truly blessed to be able to photograph these little ones! Enjoy the photos!!!







Okay, so this is the last blog of my sessions for a while…I’m headed out of town in a few days and off for a fun vacation with family over Christmas (more on that later)…I might update before the holidays, but if not, I want to wish everyone of you an wonderful Christmas that is filled with love and joy and time with those you love…because that is really what it’s all about, isn’t it!

A VERY cute "almost" One Year Old!

This morning, I had the pleasure of photographing Samantha for her one year photos. She is just adorable…no other description necessary, as you can see from the photos. She actually won’t turn one for a little over two weeks, but she is already walking…really well and seemed to enjoy exploring the studio and easily got around. I met Samantha…and her mom this past summer at the soccer camp my granddaughter was at…Becca (mom) nannies a little girl who became fast friends with Jayden and even after soccer ended, we’ve met up occasionally for the girls to play. I was honored to be asked to photograph Samantha for her first year photos…she was fun and VERY easy to photograph! At the end of the session, they stripped her down to enjoy a cupcake, but it was not what you would expect…she only eats Cheerios and would not put any of it in her mouth…though she did have fun playing with it! Dad even tried “dipping” a Cheerios into the frosting and she wouldn’t eat it…it was the funniest and cutest thing…loved watching (and photographing) her with it!

It was also great to have her mom and dad, Becca and RJ there…a really nice couple so have done a wonderful job with their daughter…you can see how much they are enjoying her and that she is thriving and will be a beautiful little girl (and busy) as she continues to grown. I will be anxious to hear about their Christmas…and how she does with the tree…that is the age that can be challenging, especially with the ornaments…but what fun memories for all of them!

I couldn’t resist working on some photos for the blog, especially since I’ll be leaving at the end of the week and will be “off line” until after Christmas…I just couldn’t make them wait that long to see some of the photos! Enjoy…she is a cutie!!

P.S. I have to mention this darling rocking chair they brought over…I offered to “store” it for them, but they didn’t take me up on it! Might have to find one for the studio!!
