So for a few months now, every Sunday on the way to church we have passed this building, and I know Michael has been so tired of me mentioning, I really want to have a session there. So, you know, every week I had been just waiting for someone to put on their contract that they wanted a downtown session. When this sweet mama filled out her contract, I was so excited! I knew this would be a perfect spot for their family, and so I contacted the owners and got permission to use the space. I love, love, love the way these turned out – just the pretty neutral background of the building was just perfect, and the colors they wore just popped next to the background. I also love that it was a super unique spot and not just the normal kind of downtown background. Also, we weren’t close to a busy street where you have to worry about little ones every single second. It was also pretty quiet – not a million people walking all around us which can be a struggle when you are downtown. (You really don’t want a million photobombers in the back of your family photos, right?) We also found a few props and an old door on the sidewalk.I have sooo many favorites from this session, and it is so sweet to see their little ones’ personalities in each and every image. They chose a pretty field for the background of their session last year, and I love that we were able to find something new and different for this year’s family portraits.
I can’t believe 2014 is almost over. I’m still amazed that I was doing all of this last year just a few weeks before Harrison was born. (How did I do it?!? I don’t know!) The Free Holiday Mini Sessions start this weekend (Free when booking a 2015 session) and I have one spot left, so if you’re interested in more info, let me know! Also, I’ll be sending out an e-mail soon with a lot of exciting information about 2015, so if you aren’t on the e-mail list, click the E-mail Signup tab on my facebook page here!

So the day of this newborn session it poured. I mean – completely crazy pouring down rain. It was a super dark day with all the rain, and it’s not secret that I love dark days for newborn sessions just as much as sunny ones. I love the beautiful moody light on rainy days. This session is beautiful in color, but wow, do I love the black and white images, too. This session was just so sweet – capturing the love they have for their baby girl. And, wow, she is just beautiful and such a content little one. We also discovered that the dad had just met my brother in SC while traveling for work a few weeks before the session. (Small world!)
Love that we were able to photograph her nursery, and it was most important to mom that we got some great family portraits. Love all of the sweet family images, especially that we got a few with the blanket that great great grandma made. It’s just so special to have newborn portraits at home – in your space surrounded by what has meaning to you.

I can’t believe it’s almost time for the 2014 Free Holiday Mini Sessions! (Free when booking a 2015 session!) You can read more details in a previous blog post here. It was so fun looking through images from last year to make this short little video. Since it is a yucky, cold day with both of my sessions being rained out, it’s a great day for coffee and editing. I can’t believe Halloween is over and it’s almost time for the holidays!! (Yay!) Don’t miss your chance to book one of the Free Holiday Minis – Contact me for more information!

Owen’s favorite song this year has definitely been “Rocketship Run” by Laurie Berkner. Ever since he heard it at the library, he is constantly counting and blasting off all over the house, park, grocery store, etc. I totally forgot that I had gotten this costume a few years ago on clearance after Halloween. Owen found it by looking through different closets in the house. (which is often hilarious because he finds things I forget we have. A week or two ago, he found a big bag of brand new play doh so he, of course, was ecstatic.) So we had to find an astronaut costume for Harrison, right? (Because, you know, this is probably the ONLY year this is going to happen) The smallest astronaut costume I could find was 24 months and it totally fits him right? Maybe a little big in the arms but it was difficult even getting him in it. (He’s 10 months. My little 6lbs, 15 oz 5 week early baby is a big boy rocking his 24 months costume)
We will be out trick or treating tonight. Looks like the weather is still at 0% chance of precipitation (yay!) unlike the forecast for tomorrow, which is not looking good. Stay safe and have a great time tonight, Oh and Happy Halloween!

Oh, he is growing so fast and you know this is so hard for my Mama heart. This summer I was thinking about his first year, how fast it was going, and the milestones I wanted to capture. I knew I really wanted a Mommy & Me session – just me and him, to capture his sweet little personality at 9 months. We had already planned a fall family session, but I knew I would want to capture images that focused more on him and his sweet little personality at 9 months. So I was beyond thrilled that Amy of Sunshower Photography was going to be driving through here and would be able to stop by for a session with my sweet baby boy. And, these are absolutely perfect, just perfect. The first image of him giggling while he’s crawling away (and me chasing him..) that is our everyday. He will get up and start walking soon and these days of chasing those sweet chubby crawling legs will be gone. (It will turn into running to catch him, right?) The facial expressions, his personality are in each and every image, and oh I love that so much about these. And the one of him twirling his hair, oh so precious to me.
This little one is such a gift…truly. I treasure these images of our Christmas Day baby so much. I’m so thankful for this sweet baby boy that brings so much joy to our lives. I know I’m about to blink and his first year will be over, and I’m super thankful I took the time to plan something for just me and him. Thank you so much, Amy!! These are such a treasure!
