I am so amazed my the amount of beauty and personality that shown through this little person during our session together. When I was editing the sessions’s images the song “This Little Light of Mine” came to mind because she seems to have such a beautiful “light” emanating from her! She’s so cute and tiny, and she has this wonderful smile and such happiness just bursting out of her. I love that she really opened up and had a great time during the session and I was able to capture so many cute little expressions. So, with that in mind, here are some session highlights from our first birthday portrait session.
What a beauty this little girl is! I put a “casting call” shout-out a few weeks back on my facebook page to see if I could get someone in to my studio quickly to model a few lace rompers for an etsy shop. This little one’s mom was the very first to respond. Did I get lucky or what?! She looks like a little Gerber baby model!
This was also my first real session at my home studio. It went really well! We had plenty of room and it was so nice to just set up everything and not have to travel with all of it!




And blowing me a kiss….does it get cuter than this?!


This session was my first newborn twin session. I couldn’t have asked for better little babies or more easy-going parents! The session was so peaceful and the little ones slept so nicely. Mom and dad already seemed like pros and had such confidence! It was really amazing. These were also the teeny tiniest little babies that I’ve ever worked with. The little boy was only four pounds and his sister was almost 6 pounds. Teensy weensy little people! Working with newborns is so amazing, I am always at awe of these little people with all their perfect little features.
So…meet the little ones, Sam & Isabelle.





Happy Birthday to sweet little Kai! We started the session with some classic portraits and ended with a fun cake smash portion! It’s funny to watch the little ones since this is usually their first time experiencing cake. Most don’t like the feeling of it on their hands. Kai was almost ready to cry because she didn’t like the messy icing, but once she starting tasting the actual cake (which mom snuck into her mouth just in time) she started to “double-dip” with both hands right into the cake! It was classic, I loved it!
