Better & Better....

What a GREAT newborn session this was!!!

Although this session "looks" like a wonderful peacefully sleepy session it was full of cuddles, swaddling, noise machines, space heaters and feedings to keep him asleep!!

Some babies don't like to miss a moment of their big debut!

We had a laundry pile by the time we were done that afternoon but it was ALL worth it as I am in LOVE with these images!!

The story behind "The Dad" image is Mom really wanted some with father and son but Dad just had some surgery on his face from a baseball accident! He looked better then what Mom had described so it wasn't too hard to just turn him sideways and capture the un-bruised side of his face! I think it's one of my all time favorite shots now!!

ENJOY!!

All grown up....

So I found this toddler bed at a garage sale for $5 and just HAD to use it right away!! I did some tweaking to the bed to make is stable before I used it but I'm in love with it!!

This session was a 6 month session and we carted that bed down to "The River" location! We only got a few shots with the bed but it was worth it!!

You may remember this little man from his newborn session!

Grandma joined in the fun again and she was just oh so sweet with her grandson!!

She was visiting all the way from Nigeria!! (Safe travels home Grandma)

Grandma kept telling me he was SO smilie in the car ride over but only gave me mainly serious looks!! We cracked a laugh out of him here and there but his eyes are what drew ME in!!

I hope you like this session as much as I do!!

ENJOY

(oh and did I mention I LOVE his fau hawk??!!)

Anoka Madness....

What a GREAT session this was!!

It was VERY eventful ....from the Abby Roads cross walk ...to rock tower.... to falling into the Rum River!! LOL

I took a different approach with this family as I knew the kids like to explore....I acted more or less like a photojournalist and followed them around with a few stops for a group family photo's!!

I must also mention that the Mom is my daughters Daycare Provider!! She is amazing and has such a heart for pre-school aged children and ROCKS at it!!

My daughter just can't wait to go to "Monique's Little Munchkins" in the morning!!

Check her out!

ENJOY
