Tie Dye Birthday
Zander turned 1 this month and since dad has been making tie dye all his life, what better way to celebrate than with family pictures where everyone is wearing tie dye! This little guy has grown so much since he was in as a newborn… it’s always amazing to me how quickly they change. [...]
Wyatt’s 1-Year Photos
It’s been a pleasure to watch Wyatt grow up over the past year. I can’t believe he is already a year old! Now I’ve done a fair few of these first birthday cake disaster shoots and they are always interesting. Typically, you have to hold the baby back from destroying the cake before you get [...]
Photographing Babies’ New Tricks!
One of the biggest rewards to me as a portrait photographer is seeing babies grow up. It is just so fun to watch them get bigger, learn new tricks, and interact in exciting and different ways. I love seeing the world anew through the eyes of each child. That’s why I’ve been so lucky to [...]
November Girl – Newborn Photos
This lovely little girl was such a champ, her mom and dad brought her into the studio and although I’d been there for 3 hours trying to warm it up, it was hardly 60 degrees in the room and just would not warm up! We had two space heaters on her and wrapped her in [...]
Dynamic Toddler Photo Session

First Birthday Cake
Kids change so much during their first years, and the first birthday is an exciting one because the whole experience is brand new! I was expecting a bit more mess, honestly, but she ate like a princess… for the most part. I did manage to capture some frosting on her darling face, though, and we [...]
Baby Photography Is All About Toes Today!
There is something delightful about toes to a baby, and about a baby playing with his or her toes to a parent. Photographers are not immune to this! One of my favorite ages to photograph a baby is just after they discover their toes. Many parents do newborn pictures and then they do first birthday [...]
Two-Year-Old Twins Portraits!
Few things are more challenging than pre-speech twins, but if you know the right moves they can be a blast, and the portraits can be so cute!
Summertime Newborn Portraits
Summer is such a great time for newborn babies, which of course translates to this newborn portrait session. Newborns are a challenge, because you are completely on their schedule. Ixa did a beautiful job, and mom and I got a lot of good chatting in while she fell asleep. I loved how mom had flower [...]
