Little Jackson arrived safe & sound two weeks ago, and I had the pleasure of photographing this little bundle at exactly one week of age! His very proud parents are a little bleary-eyed, though, since Jack has his days & nights mixed up. We did this session in the early evening & COULD NOT wake him up! I know, I know, all of you mothers are wondering if we were insane trying to wake up a sleepy baby, but I do like to get some with their eyes open. Didn’t happen here. I’m still delighted with the way these images show the love of new parents for their precious newborn!

I swear I never get tired of Seniors. They are so beautiful and graceful, and sometimes, like Brittany, don’t even realize how STUNNING they really are! Her eyes are a gorgeous shade of green, so you know how much I loved doing this session (’cause I’m all about the EYES!!!).

Ray’s mom has had a gift certificate for pictures burning a hole in her pocket since her baby shower, and has been patiently waiting for just the right time to get images of her little sweetie. We had his session exactly on his 1st birthday! He could stand but not yet walk, so we were able to keep him in one place! And I think you’ll agree that it was, indeed, the perfect time to capture these amazing blue eyes.

I have photographed Ryan every year since he was an infant, and now this handsome guy is turning three (how did THAT happen?). He is always a joy to be around, and I think these images captured what a happy and lovable little boy he really is. And who could resist those soulful eyes???

Stacey & David were home for Jessica’s wedding this weekend (yes I’ll be posting pictures…I have 450 to go through!) and I snapped a few of Gavin, who is now 10 months and really going through an attachment phase to his mommy!

I just realized that I never shared any wedding pictures from Jeff & Dana’s wedding. I am SO crunched for time this week, with Jessica’s wedding coming up on Saturday, but I’ll share this very cool shot that Jason got:

This is an image of the Webb family that I did in June, on their 50th wedding anniversary…you may remember Jean & Mike’s couple session that I posted in May. How amazing that every single child & grandchild were able to get together in one place, at the same time, to share this special day with them! What a treasure! Jean got this BIG for over her mantle:
