Allie [Party Time!]

Sweet, gorgeous little Allie. What a babydoll!! Not only does she have the most beautiful, precious face (with the longest eyelashes I've ever seen on a baby!) but she's SO sweet! She was such a good sport while we played dress up with her!! I loved the outfits that her mom and dad, Michelle and Stu, brought with them. They were celebrating her being 6 months old! :) The miniature pink polka dot couch with pink balloons and a giant cupcake with hot pink (staining) icing, and "6month" sticker was more than the perfect touch! The cupcake was a funny experience for all of us -- Allie didn't know WHAT to think of it: she painted her legs with the icing, and then figured out she was uncomfortable with icing all over herself. Michelle and Stu had a great time trying to get the icing off with wipes.. And of course I had fun photographing it all!!  FYI to all moms who want to give their babies a cupcake -- MAKE SURE THE ICING ISNT DYED, because it will dye your skin!! LOL. Needless to say, I think this is probably one of the cutest shoots to date. :)

 

Lauren & Alan [Great Expectations]

Lauren and Alan are expecting their precious baby girl literally ANY day now! Her due date is September 10th, but neither of them think the little princess will wait that long to make her appearance.
I really enjoyed how this shoot turned out, especially after rescheduling 4 times because of rain. We had to get creative, and used a sweet little book store as our background. Fully equipped with the "A Survival Guide For Expectant Fathers" and a Whinnie The Pooh backdrop! :) Thanks for letting me capture this sweet time in your lives, Lauren & Alan.

Avery [Party Time!]

Precious little Avery! This was her day -- her 1,095th day, actually -- her 3rd birthday! She was the star of the show, the most fair of all the maidens in the land. Her birthday party was "princess" themed, with her as "Tiana" from The Princess and the Frog. She looked absolutely adorable - decked out from head to toe, literally. Chandelier earrings, tiara, necklace, rings, bracelets, fluffy and sparkly dress, and princess slippers! She was all dolled up for her big day. I couldn't get enough of her giant grin and little "miss priss" attitude. My  second shooter (husband) and I had a great time photographing the events of the "Royal Party," as the princesses got their nails painted, made magic wands, and played a few majestic games! Thanks, Angela, for letting us be a part of this day. I hope these photos are a great reminder of just how precious your sweet Avery is!
