Jack!

This weekend I spent some time with this energetic little guy! A little over a year ago, I photographed Jack when he was just a month old. My cousin Brooke and her husband Bryan brought Jack to my place this time, and we reminisced about that shoot. Jack was pretty fussy that day, so they got out the vacuum (yes, the vacuum!) to soothe him and put him to sleep. It was the only white noise that seemed to do the trick :) Well, this time around, he was definitely in a much better mood... and instead of a vacuum, it was some yummy cookies that won him over!

A very excited face! "Did you say cookie?!"

Most kiddos aren't shy about getting up close and personal with my camera lens, and I just keep on shooting. Sometimes these turn out to be my favorites!

Now this is an ornery face...  :)

 

MaeLeigh: seven days

I had the honor of spending the morning with this sweet girl just one week after her big arrival! She set a new personal record for how long she stayed awake, but our patience eventually paid off. Once this girl fell asleep, she did great! I got so many shots of this beauty that it made it very difficult to choose which ones to share. Here is a look at some of my favorites, as well as a couple of announcement cards that were so much fun to create!

Announcement Cards:

Yes, she has this many shoes! And if you can even believe it, these are not all of them!!

We couldn't resist using some her dad's firefighter gear!

Thank you Jenni and Scott for letting me spend so much time with you guys to photograph your brand new baby girl!
