ELLA

Sweet little Ella decided that she wanted to see what all the hype was about with newborn photos when she first arrived to her session. So she came wide awake and looked around a bit. After a few more feedings, swaddles, and sucks on her paci she was OUT. I just LOVED this little gals session. So girly and fun!

KAYLEE

This session meant SO much to me. My beautiful best friend is welcoming her SECOND little boy in to this world! I can't wait to meet him in May. :)

KATIE & MAKS

This shoot has to be one of my favorites ever. The light was perfect this evening, the models were to die for, and Momma styled them perfectly! Can you believe she actually made Katie's flower crowns with fresh flowers the day of the shoot too!?! EEK! LOVE!

MARK

Mark was definitely one of my biggest newborns Ive had in the studio! But he fell fast asleep like one of my tiny ones:) Such a sweetheart!

LUKE & STEPHANIE

So I need to go in to detail a little bit on this one. Stephanie contacted me months ago to set up this session. I thought all along this would just be a maternity shoot! Boy was I wrong. When we first arrived to our first spot to start shooting Luke asked Stephanie to put his keys and wallet over by my bag. While her back was turned for those maybe 30 seconds it took her to do that, Luke leaned over to me and said "I'm going to propose to her so be ready". I must have looked like I saw a ghost because I said "WHAT!!? NOW!??" He nodded and I QUICKLY composed myself in time for her to return over to us. I took a few maternity shots and then waited for Luke's nod it was go time. I took a few steps back and then shot like rapid as I captured every frame of his proposal. It was seriously SO sweet.  I have no idea how we finished the shoot because her excitement over the ring made maternity photos look not so exciting anymore. haha! THIS is one shoot I will never ever EVER forget. Such a memorable evening:) Congrats Luke and Stephanie! Cant wait to meet your little Liam in a couple months!
