Baby Bella

Here's a few more of sweet Miss Bella. She is such an alert baby already at 16 days new. We did manage to get some sleepy pics, especially when she was snuggled up. Her mama and daddy love her so much and have taken to parenthood wonderfully. Such a sweet family!

Mommy's Girl

One of the things I love about what I do is getting to see relationships unfold and being part of some very special times. This mama (and daddy, too) has to be one of the most laid back, loving, and stylish people I know. I was so excited to do her maternity session and even more excited to do baby Bella's newborn pics. At 16 days new, she is one of the most alert newborns I've ever seen. Her mommy is such a natural at the whole motherhood thing and I think you can tell Miss Bella knows it and loves her all the more. Really, I just couldn't wait to post this image. More to come!

Warm and Cozy

It was quite a blustery day in these here parts the day of this session. To top it all off, Mother Nature couldn't decide if she wanted to drop rain, sleet, or snow. This couple sure made things warm and cozy with their excitement and cheery home. Their bitty boy will be surrounded by so much love when he arrives. I truly enjoy being welcomed into my clients' homes for these maternity and baby sessions. I believe that being photographed in your own space adds such a wonderful element to the images, especially at such a personal and joyous time. Thanks for a bit of sunshine on an otherwise gloomy afternoon!

If only....

I looked half this good three days before giving birth. This mama (and papa) are so amazing and Miss Bella (yes, the "?" is now known to be a girl) is one very lucky girl. I hold her mama personally responsible for any inkling of style my hair has had in the past three years. Don't these two just exude a sense of calm happiness? Congrats, B and K, on your new package of perfection. This seems so long ago now, dosn't it? I'm sure she'll love her teal room and doggies!
