Miss E., Three weeks new

February 21st, 2012

Oh what a fun session this was! I’ve known Mom for forever. Really, I started feeling a bit old once I realized how many marathons ago we had met! I have to brag on Mom for a bit: she’s truly the most active person in Pearland. If there’s a run or a bike or a triathlon–she’s doing it! You know you’re into multisport events when you say something like: “I just need to lose enough baby weight to fit back into my wetsuit”. So she can relay an Ironman event. Yes, she’s the bomb!

I got to try out some fabulous new fabrics and hair pretties that I got while raiding a prop destash from the fabulous Aimee Fuller Photography. One of the things I like so much about working with newborn girls is I get to play dress-up. With two boys, dress-up involves more swords and superhero-muscle-costumes than bows and headbands!

So I won’t make you wait any longer: here’s the good stuff!

When Mom came in and Miss E was awake she was worried because she thought we would only be getting sleepy shots. Nope! I truly LOVE seeing these babies’ eyes open!

Sweet, sleepy baby!

I saw these toes and immediately loved them! Mom says they are her Daddy’s toes!

This precious hat was created by a wonderful high school friend: Momma’s Creations

I think she looks like a Victorian doll!

She gave up some sweet, sweet smiles for us during the session!!

Just love those sweet lips!

Again, I just love an awake baby! (quiet, alert wakefulness, especially! lol!)

A crown for the little princess she truly is!

And dreaming of the angels! What a sweetie!

Thanks again, Mom, for coming in and sharing your darling with me!

Project 52 (week 7) AND Project 12: {LOVE}

February 16th, 2012

Love day has come and gone. It was fun. And Pinterest-filled for all except for this slacker mom. My kids survived. Sheesh.

This week and month’s theme both are {LOVE}. Two birds; one stone. I’m all for multitasking these days.

Here’s my image:

I could post so many things with the theme of love. My family. My life as a Christian. My new camera bag. But this really touched my heart and I knew it had to be this. My big guy was so excited last week to show me how to make a heart with your hands (he learned it at school). I made the “love” wallpaper/overlay as part of the “trying something new” that I’m wanting to get out of this year of challenges. Was pretty okay with how it turned out!

So go take a look-see over at Misty Seltzer | Lubbock, TX Family Photographer to get her take on {LOVE} for the Bloom Forum’s PROJECT 52.

And check out these links for the PROJECT 12 over at Newborn Goodness:

If you just want to see some pics of my boys frantically tearing into their V-Day gifts, enjoy here.

Maternity: {Glowing}

February 15th, 2012

There’s a challenge when you become a photographer to find your niche. Not just your style. But what you love to do. Who you love to work with. It takes some time and potentially some really not-your-favorite sessions to start to develop where you fit in (and where you don’t!). Lately, I’ve really felt that my calling as a photographer is to walk with families as they grow, taking pictures along the way.

This session was a great example of that for me. I was blessed to be able to take engagement portraits of this couple a few years ago and now am documenting another big step in their lives together–a new baby! It means the world to me to be able to work with families over the years and grow with them. It’s incredibly meaningful and special to me!

But enough about me. . .let’s enjoy this sweet, totally loving couple as they eagerly await their sweet little girl.

A little light reading. ..

Can’t you just feel their excitement? Such a loving couple. Little girl is very lucky, indeed!

Mom made this adorable pillow a la Pinterest for the session.

I think this one is my favorite from the session. Top three, at least.

I love when I ask a couple to get close and sweet and they are so truly in love and adore each other so much. These two are the most loving couple. Big pink puffy heart love!!
