Had a wonderful time with the fam down in North Carolina this past christmas! Here are a couple photos I took of the sweetest family of four (I’m super biast…after all I’m related). Enjoy!

OH MY GOSH!!! This little guy is so cute all I wanted to do was cuddle with him during the whole shoot! He was just so happy and such a love I couldn’t take the camera off him! He smiled and man! He is wicked charming!! One of my favs is him playing with the drumsticks and the pot- how cute is he?! Enjoy!!!

I LOVE this family and I am so lucky to be able to photograph them! We last saw them back in August (See here) for a fun summer session. You can see the difference in just a few months- they are really growing up! Here we still played outside, and though it was a beautiful day, it was chilly! We had fun in the leaves, and playing around in the back yard. They all had a great time, but little Sebastian & Gaby had so much fun, they could barely keep their eyes open by the end, they were so tired! Enjoy!

It was a gorgeous morning when I met up with one of my favorite families to photograph! I worked with them a couple years ago (see post here) when they were only a family of 3. Now with a fourth member, they were even more fun to work with, and, if it could be possible, even more adorable! We took a little family walk through the woods out in Maryland, played with some leaves and captured the two little ones having a fabulous time together and with mom and dad. There’s nothing like good ole family fun- and the it certainly shows. Mom and Dad certainly got a good work out in, running around and entertaining their kids. All in all, it was a wonderful shoot!

I make it up to Massachusetts maybe 4 times a year or so for work and this time happened to coincide with hurricane Irene. I had a shoot scheduled on the day she hit us up here and we didn’t let the weather or the loss of power in half the town stop us from getting some fun family and baby portraits (inside of course). Quinn was just the sweetest little model as she babbled her way through the session. We had her in and out of several different outfits, in and out of baskets, sitting next to giant teddy bears etc, and she was just so pleasant and curious through out the entire session. I’m sure I can speak for the family when I say we all had a great time observing little 5 month old Quinn as her expressions changed over the 1.5 hour shoot. You’ll see some fun one’s below. She is just a chubby bundle of joy and she passes it on through her expressions…you can’t help but smile when you look at her!

This was my first session with beautiful baby Mesa and her parents. We went to a park, set her up in some fun little settings, and I photographed while her mom and dad did their best to make this baby girl smile. She was so well tempered and just fun to photograph. It was great to see her interact with her parents…she is a nuzzler! Not only that but she was so fascinated by the grass as this was one of the first times she’d been so close to it that we had a tough time getting her to look up. Every time she looked up though, she had such a great expression…have a look!

It was most definitely the perfect morning for this family photo session with Carolina and her two darling kiddos Sebastian and Gaby. They are just so precious and I am so lucky to have the opportunity to photograph them a couple times a year! It’s amazing to see these little ones change so much in just 6 months! This time we played in the back yard and just had a grand ole time! Carolina is so gifted with making these kids laugh- you can just see the love and playfulness they share within their family. It’s a joy to be able to capture that and as you will see, the photos really do speak for themselves

I have had the wonderful fortune of watching beautiful Niamh grow up over the past 3 1/2 years and I have also had the excellent opportunities to photograph her over the past few years as well! To have a look back at  one other photo session we did a couple years ago you can refer to my old blog: Niamh in Summer .

Photographing her this summer was a joy and let me say, 3 1/2 is a tremendously adorable age. In these photographs, you can really begin to see her young adult shining through. Niamh is certainly an excellent little model and so much fun to work with! I look forward to capturing her lively big personality in the future! Here are a few sneak peeks from our most recent session. We actually did the session at a beautiful home in Massachusetts with lovely gardens and a gorgeous front porch. I love a good porch and garden- they are excellent settings for photos and fun!!!

And of course, what three year old doesn’t like a fairy costume? She’s so etherial looking in the images below

Summer is my most favorite time in Massachusetts, and lucky me, I got to be up there for a couple of weeks in July for work and play! While I was there I had the absolute joy of photographing sweet gorgeous little Calleigh. She is a super fun and expressive little 10 month old who I just had so much fun with! She was a fabulous little poser, who just babbled away through the session. We had a great time, and got some sweet smiles. Enjoy!

Beautiful smile!!
