Charlotte’s Cake Smash

After our family session, Charlotte got to taste her birthday cake. Her Mom warned me that Charlie is a little “foodie” and will probably love her cake and she was right! We didn’t anticipate her picking up the plate and dumping the cake on her lap but it made for a good shot! Happy 1st…

Cake Smash | Arabella

After our family session, we brought out Arabella’s cake for her cake smash and this little girl had a blast! She got her fingers in the frosting right away and when she couldn’t get enough cake with her hands she just went face first. She was so much fun to watch and really one of my most successful…

Arabella: 1 year

I spent my Labor Day evening with this sweet girl and her family. Arabella is changing so much, she’s getting more hair and walking now. She loved looking at the apples last night in the orchard. I can’t believe she’s already one. It’s been a fun year watching you grow up little miss!

Oliver Eugene

I’ll be honest, usually when I have a newborn session with an older sibling, I’m lucky to get one or two keepers. Today, Lillian was AMAZING. That girl deserves every treat in the book. She was so patient and kind and held her sweet little brother so gently. I have several fun shots of the two of…

Leo: 1 Year

Leo is 1! From the day I met him I was smitten with his calm and easy going demeanor. Now at one, he’s grown into the happiest, most personable little guy and his smile can light up a room. I met Leo and his parents for their session tonight at a beautiful Alpaca farm. This barn…
