Smash Cake Birthday Session!

Happy 1st Birthday "N"!!!!!

This session was my most favorite session I have ever experienced! Of course I love all my sessions, but this one was so girlie...and right now being in a house with so many boys, this is just what I needed!
Mom and Dad were so creative and had so many fun ideas...and their baby girl was just perfect! So for her 1st brithday we did a "smash cake" celebration!


Here is the beginning...







Yes...she has a cupcake on her booty. I could barely handle the cuteness! I am around too much blue! I loved all this pink!!!!



Just moved back to the States from Japan. She already knows how to use chopsticks (and rumor has it she loves sushi)!


the aftermath...


Time for bed! Snuggling up to Mom while there is still some room around her belly :)

Holiday Season!

Oh the holidays are here...and I will NEVER complain about being busy :) I have been so lucky to work with so many families lately for their holiday card shots. I have been behind on my blogs and wanted to show off a few of my favorites from .
Big happy family :)


Of course I am partial to this one...my cute little nephews! "K" is seconds away from wrrestling down his little brother :)



You may rcognize these girls from a shoot earlier this summer...they are naturals!



This shoot ended up being a great distraction from a terrible Bears game! Right when we headed outside it started to snow...do you see it?




Seroiusly...look at that face! Awwwww. Bailey you are the cutest!

Good Old Dogs...

Such old dogs...and so sweet. They just wanted to relax...and for an instant everyone was sitting :)





"M" could not have been more beautiful! She was so perfect to work with.

Ahhhhh...2 year olds. It is truly my favorite age. So tough to photograph, but once you get comfortable with the fact that they will always be moving...I began to make a game of it, and I think I won with this shot. What a little man!
