Awaiting Baby H.

In the last two weeks, almost every one of my sessions has been maternity sessions... beautiful, blooming bellies... and all these bellies can only mean one thing: LOTS of newborn sessions coming up!!! This momma's belly was no exception... absolutely gorgeous. I can't wait to meet baby H!! Enjoy your preview....

Meet This Pretty.

Oh, do I have an amazing (and affordable) online boutique for you.

Welcome to our newest sponsor, This Pretty. This Pretty has the most sophisticated gifts for babies, toddlers and adults, including today's trendiest styles for onesies and shirts!

Introducing the tie shirt. Quite possibly the most adorable (and perfect) shirt for the big day of love.



This Pretty was founded by Mandy, a school nurse and a mother of two, in September of 2010. Mandy states, "I have always loved making things and being creative...This Pretty comes from something I used to say to my husband 'I want this pretty and this pretty and this pretty...' My first tie shirt was for my son, who is 3 1/2. He wanted to wear a tie like his daddy wears every day. But he is more of a rough and tumble 3 year old, and not one to wear fancy clothes for more than a minute. I cut up his crib sheet and made him his first tie shirt."



Crafting her ties to look as real as possible, Mandy designs all of her onesies and shirts to be completely kid friendly...no silk ties or real pearls for the little ones!



And for the little ladies? You must check out her Sweet Pink Necklace Onesie and the Embellished Baby Onesise in Pink Chartreuse. I get asked all the time what to dress the little ones in for the photo shoots.... This Pretty provides an excellent option for the little ones... from your new little peanuts to your toddlers.

Preview of Lucy.

Meet twelve day old Lucy. I traveled all the way up to Chicago to meet this little beauty and she is extra special because she is our new niece. Even at twelve days old, she slept as soundly as a five or six day old. Welcome to the world, Miss Lucy Katherine.

Spring Mini Sessions Announced!!

Preview of Kaelin.

Meet seven day old Kaelin. I am so excited that I will also be watching this little lady grow up during her first year. A&K, congratulations on your beautiful newborn...

Preview of Ella.

If there's one thing I love better than newborns, it's watching these newborns grow up. And I'm so very lucky to be able to see Miss Ella every three months... and she just keeps getting more gorgeous every time!

Ella at three weeks.

Ella turns six months...

Preview of Adyson.

So I'm a little behind on the big previews... and now I'm playing catch up.

Meet six day old Adyson... who is every bit as sweet as she looks. It's impossible to not fall in love with these absolutely perfect new little peanuts. Congratulations, D&J, on your gorgeous new addition.
