I’m so excited to share this maternity session with you!  Meet Nicole & David.  Nicole is an incredibly talented hair stylist (check out her beautiful salon http://www.harperonmelrose.com/) She is kind, energetic, fun-loving & creative.  David is genuine, sincere, caring & protective.  The chemistry these two have is undeniable & watching the way these best friends interact was pure magic.

**BIASED AUNTIE ALERT**  I’m pretty obsessed with this session.  Not only because my niece & nephew are ridiculously adorable & photogenic but because we had so much fun making memories in while freezing & playing in the snow.

How adorable is this family??!!  My favorite thing about photographing kids is making the session as interactive as possible to showcase their personalities.  As soon as they arrived, Noah & Zoey went straight for the tee pee, & immediately climbed in & started posing.

Congratulations Joe & Ivette!  I couldn’t be happier for you two and this little guy Jai melts my heart!  Love adding this little bambino to the crew!

Let them eat cake.  Sometimes we all need a little extra motivation to get through a photo shoot.  So the cake not only served as a great prop for Logan’s first birthday photos but also as a great bribe to encourage him & his brother to smile at the camera.

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!  I hope you all have an amazing day celebrating LOVE … and eating tons of candy of course!  

Life has a beautiful way of reconnecting people.  I’ve known this beautiful Mama since I was in elementary school.  We lost touch for several years, but reconnected recently & I’m so grateful we did.  Meet my friend Amanda, her husband Andy & their beautiful daughters.

Jennifer is one of my dearest friends.  We’ve been involved in each others lives since elementary school & have remained close for over 25 years.  We’ve been through so much together … from playing dolls to crushing on boys to taking college classes together, to being her maid of honor, to celebrating the birth of her 4 beautiful children!  She told me she wanted to celebrate their 10th anniversary with a photo shoot & I couldn’t have been more excited to start planning this session!

I’ve known Chris & Anna for several years now and was beyond excited when they told me they were expecting and wanted to schedule a newborn session. They told me that they wanted to be surprised so they wouldn’t be finding out the gender until “baby Fry’s” arrival. Little miss Lola Grace decided to make an appearance  just 4 days after Mommy & Daddy’s maternity session!
