Final Edits (Take One): Meier Family

Such a cute family.  Can't get over those chubby little toes and those first time pigtails!  Second portion of edits soon to come.  Enjoy! 










New Favorite

Now, every parent knows how hard it is to get a toddler to sit still for a photo. But two of them? Try impossible. You can bribe all you want (in this case with a stuffed puppy) and it’s still only about a 50/50 chance it will work. I absolutely love this photo of London snatching his baby sister Liliana’s puppy. Forget the side by side grinning shot; isn’t this exactly what a big brother would do? THIS is real. Both their faces are priceless, but his mischievous little grin … it made the picture. My new favorite!

Sneak Peek: Meier Family

London and Liliana, possibly the cutest siblings I've ever seen.  This Mommy has her hands full but seems to manage very well.  She had endless tricks up her sleeve to get these two smiling for the camera.  Songs, toys, treats, dances and even outfit changes.  I managed to get a couple shots of Haley and her adorable crew; in between her juggling act that is.  Our forecast sunny day turned into an overcast mess with threats of rain.  We missed the sunset we'd hoped for, but this weather turned out to be a perfect excuse for cute little hats.

Final edits soon to come.  Enjoy!

Sneak Peek: Halloween Session (Juliet)

I ordered this adorable Unicorn costume almost a month ago and although I've had it at arms reach hanging up ever since, today was the first day Juliet agreed to actually try it on.  Oddly enough it was the bodysuit that made her uneasy; she's always loved trying on the hat.  I'd been plotting my bribes to get her in it for a photo shoot for days now.  Turns out, she's a pretty spoiled kid so there's not much that will sway her.  The weather was absolutely gorgeous today.  Juliet was feeling a little under the weather so I was surprised when she said she wanted to do bubbles outside.  So as you can imagine, I was in complete shock when she agreed to my, "Unicorns blow great bubbles, wanna dress up?"  I knew this was a rare opportunity, so off we went.  I know my hopes of getting photos her and her baby sister together in their costumes is pushing it, but I may just be a fool to think I'll ever get her in this outfit again.  Violet ... you are next girl!  

Final edits to come ...




Final Edits: Miss Savannah Mae Turns One!

All the presents her little heart could desire, all the adoring fans a girl could ask for, and all the cake she could eat.  Happy birthday sweet girl!




















 And of course the aftermath ...



And that sweet tutu, finally laid to rest.

Celebrating Baby Brewer

It was so nice to get together with old friends and celebrate the lovely, soon-to-be Mommy Rose.  Thirty eight weeks along and she’s still all smiles.  I was a little relieved to have an afternoon baby free, but as soon as I got there I was desperate to hold my friends baby girl; ironic huh?  She was so “cute” (yup I said it) I could have kissed those cheeks of hers all afternoon. 
Thank you to Kaelah and Jackie for being such wonderful hosts and for all the amazing food.  Congratulations Rose!  Motherhood is amazing … welcome to the club!  Miss Sophia Rose is already one lucky little baby girl.
