My, it's been a while since I'd actually gone out with the camera for a session! But I couldn't have asked for a better day or a more photogenic couple! Thomas and Lauren are expecting their first baby girl, Camden, in just a few more weeks! Session took place at the small pond in Binsfeld during the evening light and the pictures just came out fabulous. I tried to pick just my favorites to post on here, but there were TOO MANY!!! Enjoy :)

I had the honor of hanging out with the Noe kids again today for a few... their mother requested that I capture their feet while they're still young (you know, before they turn all old and smelly!) It was tough... I fought with blankets and tables and angles and AGE (lord knows a baby doesn't sit still and hold their feet just right! Fortunately, a little photo shop and a lot of imagination went a long way. :)

Looking forward to warmer weather and playdates so I can get her gorgeous kids outside in a natural setting and capture their award winning personalities all over again :) Thanks guys!

My maternity session with Paul and Carrie was frustrating to say the least. But THANK YOU for being so patient and understanding! I always tell my clients that indoor photography is not my best friend. I'm far from experienced... In fact, I'm not. My camera is a huge, alien thing to me, full of buttons and gadgets that I don't understand at all (and frankly, I'm too lazy to learn how to use it!) I SO love the point/shoot ease of outdoor photography on a dry, sunny day! HURRY AND COME BACK TO ME SUMMER!

I feel like I captured some angles that are worth saving, but I did advise them to keep more experienced photographers in mind just in case I couldn't deliver what they were looking for. Anyway, here they are! I hope you like them.... Good luck with the baby, and if you like what you see - call me back for a newborn session :) I can't wait to meet him/her!

Oh. My. Gosh. Welcome to the world Adelyn and Ashlyn!

This was by FAR one of my favorite photo shoots to date. I'd googled images prior to this session, and dreamed up all of the wonderful things I'd do with these babies (and didn't even touch the starting line of what I wanted to do!) *cry* I was so overwhelmed with how tiny and cooperative they were for the most part... I'd done newborn shoots before - but this time I had twins. TWO BABIES! So tiny, and ultra precious and perfect. I'm still gushing with ooo's and aaaah's. In the end, I just wanted to sit and cuddle them and listen to them squeak while asleep.

I didn't do these babies justice... but I'll share what I think were the best shots captured during the session :) Enjoy!

Here are several of my favorite shots that I've captured of my girls over the course of their short lives... Unfortunately, they've rebelled against their photographic parents recently and REFUSE to be great subjects for the camera :( Ava is such a strong willed, stubborn 2 yr old, and Stevie... well, she just wants to know when she can stop posing and go play. So thanks to all my clients for helping me continue my experiences with photography as my own personal subjects have decided to retire early!
