Lizzy {Maternity}

 Meet my Lizzy. She's been one of my dearest friends since high school. We've gone through a lot together. Everything from boyfriend break ups, dating, engagements, both of us getting married, and now both of us having little tots of our own. It's so wonderful to have friends like her. You've known them for so long and you get to experience each other through different walks of life. While there has definitely been seasons in our friendship where we've been closer (literally-this girl lives in Africa at the moment & used to live in the Philippines over the summers) it always feels like nothings changed when we get together. I love that.

She's home from Africa for the summer to have this sweet baby. I was ecstatic to shoot her maternity. This is phase one. We will shoot a little more once her husband returns home later this month. SO ready for this sweet baby to be here!

Lizzy-I  hope you enjoy, thanks for being such a sweet friend:)

Miller H. Griffin {Newborn}

I met Valerie through blogging. And oddly enough, I consider her a dear friend. We've anticipated the arrival of sweet Miller together and shared many a texts about motherhood. I was so honored when she asked me to shoot his newborn. I love newborns, mainly because I've had one and the stage is just so precious. I'm a huge fan of lifestyle newborn sessions. There's something about just letting the baby be a baby in their natural setting without all the hats, gizmos, and backdrops that just makes me swoon. Don't get me wrong, sometimes, when done right, those kinds of sessions can be breath taking, and a baby is still pretty darn adorable no matter what kind of session. But personally, for me, I just love this style. So thankful Valerie did too!

Without further ado, meet Mr. Miller. He's alert. He's wide eyed most of the time. He's got an incredible tan. He's handsome. He's his daddy's hero. He's a gem. I really could go on and on;)

&&& just in case those weren't enough... I posted two more images on my personal blog as a teaser a few weeks back. You can see them here:)

Norton {Family}

Meet the Norton Family. Possibly one of the funniest families around. I don't think we stopped laughing their entire shoot. It was the first real day of spring and the weather could not have been more perfect. Oh, and baby B... don't even get me started on the heart breaker that he's going to be one day. Beautiful baby!


Thanks again Norton Family! Enjoy:)
