i have so much to say about this darling little boy and his family, but that will have to wait for the full post, as i am about to run out the door… for now i’ll leave you drooling with these

The minnie lola site has JUST launched!!! My dear friend Lisa has been working very hard to get this site up and running, but it’s proven to be well worth the wait!! Her site is fun, easy to navigate, and fabulous!

I worked with her on some product shots a while back, and I have done photo sessions with her beautiful baby girl, Violet

Without further adieu, click on the photo, and check out her site! Christmas is just around the corner, and if you know anyone who is expecting, or has children, Lisa has some awesome gifts!

Newborn sessions have a special little place in my heart. If you know me, then you know that I was born a mother, and for as long as I’ve lived I’ve looked forward to being a mother. (In fact, when I was 5 I remember telling my mom that I wanted 100 babies when I grew up. I imagined having them in a hospital-nursery-like setting. Of course, that was before I knew how babies came into the world…)

A lot of the photographers who inspire me the most are newborn photographers. So to say the least, they are always some of my favorite sessions!
This little bundle of love was 7 days old on the day we had his session. I couldn’t believe all of the hair he had! Such a darling little baby boy. His name is Evan Grey, and I could just eat him up! Congratulations Rachelle and Brenden, your little baby boy is perfect

And my personal favorite from the session… it was a tough call, and the monkey pic is another fave… but this one makes my heart melt…

This post is LONG overdue, but too awesome to forget about!

I got to shoot with this family a while back when their little newborn baby was just 2 weeks old. With two older sisters to help take care of her, this little baby girl has a good life ahead of her. A family with 3 girls, all close in age is so similar to mine, I couldn’t help but to fall in love with them Thank you all for a very wonderful shoot!
I’m loving this set in black and whites for some reason.

Here are some of my favorites from our session, enjoy!
