Mommy & Me | Chelsey & Barret

Good afternoon everyone!!

I wanted to share this mommy and me session with you all because I think it is so important to have these pictures.
Moms, lets be honest, it is always you who is pulling out your phone and capturing these precious times. It never occurs to the dads to document the moments when you are going on an adventure together or just sitting and playing with them in the living room. Subsequently you are left with no pictures of you and your babies together.
This is where I come in. I will take you and your babies out for a fun session and document you loving on them. You will have beautiful pictures to look back on and remember all those little details and fun times.
Pictures may not be the most important thing but they can be extremely special and timeless. Give yourself and your child those heirloom pictures that will never be forgotten. ❤️

Studio Family Pictures

Good morning! I am delivering Silas’s beautiful gallery this morning!

Many of my clients have asked to see the studio and baby Silas was sleeping like a champ so I asked if we could do a few extra wide shots to show off the studio a little bit.

I love the lifestyle look of family and newborn pictures while having the ease and comfort of the studio. This is just a little taste of what your pictures will look like in the studio :)

Amaya | Sitter Milestone Milk Bath Session

Milk bath sessions are one of my favorite things to do!

If you have never seen a milk bath session before, here is a little about them.

Milk bath sessions can be used for many different types of sessions; maternity, milestone, newborn, and mommy and me. The outcome is soft, organic, beautiful, timeless photos that will be able to cherish for years to come. The photos can be done in a small portable tub or in the comfort of your own bath tub.
I use warm water mixed with organic milk to create the soft effect. Mixing flowers, bath bombs, feather or anything creative we can think of makes for a very fun session!
In this session Amaya’s mom brought a beautiful set of flowers and flower crown to match. We also did a few milestone photos before hand. The outcome was just gorgeous! Mix that with Amaya’s personality and this stellar session happened!
I hope you enjoy the photos as much as I do.

Sibling Love | Tiny Human Tuesday

It’s tiny human Tuesday again! For this Tuesday I thought I would give some love to the tiny humans who aren’t the newborns, the older brothers and sisters.
Together they create priceless photos!

I LOVE when the siblings come to the studio, it gives me someone to play with when the babies are eating or getting a diaper change.

Here are a few of my favorite sibling shots from this past year!

Psalm 127:3-5 

Children are a heritage from the Lord,
    offspring a reward from him.
Like arrows in the hands of a warrior
    are children born in one’s youth.
Blessed is the man
    whose quiver is full of them.
They will not be put to shame
    when they contend with their opponents in court.

Copy of Josie is ONE!!!

Oh how time flies! I feel like I just met Josie and her awesome parents yesterday at her newborn session!
I have been lucky enough to take Josie's pictures every 3 months! This is always bitter sweet for me. I love seeing them grow up but it makes me sad knowing I wont being seeing them every three months now :( BUT Josie is the big ONE year old now and man, was her session fun! Her cake and tutu were made by her very talented mother. She absolutely loved her cake and I can't wait for you to see the photos! 

Here are a couple of my favorites from each session right up until the cake smash! 

Thank you for stopping by!
