All tied up in a pretty bow!

The spring/summer of 2010 has certainly been the season of newborn babies for us at the studio! I can't remember when we photographed this many newborns within a few months! It has been so fun!

You may recall Jane's maternity images that we posted back in April-and how Jane might just win the award for the cutest pregnant mommy-to-be ever! Well, Baby Ellie arrived earlier this summer and we couldn't resist decking her out in a beautiful lavendar bow-to match her nursery! How sweet is she?!? Even though Ellie is their first, Jane and Garrett seemed like old pros with their newborn! So relaxed and laid back...we think they should have 10 kids! Ellie is a much loved baby as the first grandbaby on both sides...we know she is going to be spoiled with love and kisses and who could blame them?!?! Congratulations, Jane and Garrett! We can't wait to watch Ellie grow!

Being three.....

Sam is well known on our blog as we have been photographing him since he was a brand newborn over three years ago! And guess what? Pretty soon, Sam will be a big brother!! Yah!! It was so special to photograph their family together for Sam's 3 year old portraits as fairly soon, their family of 3 will be a family of 4! It has been so wonderful for us to follow their relationship as a family and see them grow and blossom! We cannot wait to meet Baby #2!!! Is it a girl or a boy? We don't know so you will have to check back on the blog in about a month or so....

Positively Glowing!

Truly, Jane looks like a Greek goddess in these maternity images! Have you ever seen a more stunning mommy-to-be?!? We had an amazing time capturing these beautiful moments for Jane and her husband, Garrett, who are expecting a baby girl this June. Of course, their dog, Duke, had to be included and he couldn't have been better! (I can't wait to hear how he reacts to the new baby!) They are a lovely family and we look forward to meeting Baby Ellie when they bring her to the studio for her newborn session! Congratulations (and have a lovely baby shower)!

Family of 3...(plus 1)!

Jackie and Jose came to the studio a little over a month ago with their 2 year old son, Jose, for a family portrait of the three of them before introducing Baby Jax into the family sometime in April! We were delighted! What a striking family they make! We were going to post these super cute family images next week but we received the great news this afternoon that Baby Jax has made an early arrival, we couldn't wait to share their images! Everyone is happy and healthy...and we simply cannot wait to photography Jax in the next few days for his newborn session! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Waiting for Baby Bean!!

We first met this darling family when they were expecting Grae, who is now 4 years old. So we were delighted when they wanted to come in for a maternity session for baby #2! Grae has been referring to this baby as "Bean" for most of her mom's pregnancy and we are anxious to see if that name will stick or if they will choose something else (somehow I think Grae may always use the name Bean)! It was an awesome session with all of them...Alana is such a stunning pregnant mommy...we just love her belly!!
We can't wait to hear about Bean's arrival sometime this fall!!

Belly Time

A little belly time and silly time. This little guy just loved giving mom's tummy (and baby) rasberries! It has been such a blast being a part of your family as it has grown over time. Can't wait to meet the new addition. Not long now!

He not only loves being silly with his mom, but is geniunely a 3 year old in mind, body and spirit. We love when he visits the studio every January! It brightens my day everytime.
