Chase, or as his mom would call him, Chasers, is 3 months old already!  He is super cute, super sweet and super cuddly!  I have been able to photograph him even before he was born, in his mommy's belly!  Meeting new people and them turning into friends is one reason that I love my job!!

The only smile he gave us, because his daddy walked into the room!

I simply adore this photo.  Cute little Chase and his very happy mommy!

This was not a posed photo...but I saw them laying there and had to take a shot.  Love it!

Fell asleep right in daddy's arms

Baby feet!

The whole family!

 

I can't wait to go outside next time for Chase's six month photos!!

 

What an absolutely beautiful, perfect little baby girl!  Charlotte was as sweet as can be and so adorable.  Her super soft skin and chubby cheeks need lots of kisses.....thankfully her mom and dad are there for that!  They love her so much.....which I doubt is very difficult :)

I was so excited when Dorothy contacted me about photographing Charlotte in her first month of her life.  Dorothy was one of the bridesmaids from one of our weddings this summer, so it is always nice to catch up and talk on a more personal level then we can on the wedding day. 

I can't wait to see this little one grow through the coming months.  I have no doubt that she will be gorgeous!

LOVE little baby feet!!

Fun angles add so much interest to a photo!

I adore this photo.....mom, dad and their sweet little baby :)

 

OH MY GOODNESS!!  When I first met Brooklyn, my heart instantly began to melt.  She was so little, so cute and so prefect in every way!  I could have sat and held her all day long. 

I traveled to Grand Rapids to Merrisa and Robb's home to photograph their new addition.  From the second I walked in I knew I would love this family.  Although little Brooklyn was quite a surprise, her parents couldn't possibly be happier!  They love her so much and couldn't stop kissing her.  She is one lucky girl!

I say it all of the time, but I love photos of new mothers and their babies!

.

This may be my fave photo ever....her little face is sooooo cute!!

 

What a little cutie!  That is what I kept on saying all throughout this session.  Chase was about 2 weeks old during this session and wide awake!  You can just feel how much he is loved by walking into his home.  His happy parents, Elizabeth and Mark, and I were able to meet before the little man made his grand appearance into the world during their maternity session this fall.  They are a super sweet couple who are head over heels in love with their new addition!  Congratulations you two on this handsome lil' guy!  He is perfect!!

 

These little dolls are very special to me!  They belong to my beautiful best friend, Heather!  It was a fun and emotional experience being pregnant together, but now it is an entirely new experience watching our little girls grow up alongside one another.  Their big brother, Austin, is very protective over them and loves his little sisters to pieces!  What a perfect family my friend has been blessed with!!  Love you guys!

 

Luke and Emma are so funny and really good looking kids!  Our little girl, Addy, is so lucky b/c she gets to spend 2 days every week hanging out with these two!  I am absolutely in love with the images of Emma in her cute tutu that her momma made ..... and Luke is so funny and handsome with his million different faces!  Here are a few of my many favorites!  I could post a ton more, but this is just a preview ...... right?

Tiny little Liam is my newest nephew!  I am so excited to share his photos and finally meet him!  He ended up being several weeks early, so he was so little!  I am absolutely in love with his cute nursery and adorable bedding!  All of the green and brown is just perfect!  Greg, Kara, Nate and I met up at their home on a beautiful late-summer evening to photograph this cutie pie!  We took a few indoors, then ventured out to soak up some of the warm sunlight going down behind the trees!  Absolutely gorgeous!!  Here are some of my faves!

 

Jamison is such a cute, sweet little guy.  I was fortunate enough to photograph him while he was still inside his mommy's belly this past winter and I was so excited to finally photograph his little face :)  He smiled constantly .... even when his mom made him wear adorable little cowboy boots!  Troy & Liz - thanks for having me take pics for your handsome little man.  You two are so lucky to have such an amazing little gift!!

 

Ashlynn and Makenna are Addy's best friends!  They also are the twin daughters of my best friend.  I cannot wait for my little girl to grow up with great friends just like I did with Heather!  They are so sweet and so cute...all you want to do is pinch and kiss their cheeks!  Enjoy these lil ladies!!

My little nephew is a stud...enough said!

Cody and Jasper are such cute little boys.....both full of life and lots of great expressions!  I took so many photos of Jasper and none of his facial expresssions were ever the same...he was simply adorable.  Cody on the other hand was full of energy, full of spunk and full of being a little boy!  He chased me around the yard with his toys, then when his granpda showed up with the tractor...he forgot that I was even there :)  They were so much fun to be around!

Jasper & Cody's mom is Julie, who owns The Tasty Cakery in downtown Fremont.  She makes some delicious cakes, check her out sometime!!

Here are a few pics of those little cuties!!

 

I had so much fun with Jordan and Jax....and their mommy too!!  Casey and I met randomly online (facebook of course) and quickly became internet buddies!  Casey is a talented photographer in Oklahoma.....it is always nice to have friends in the photo business!!  When she told me that her famliy was coming to Michigan to visit with family, I was beyond thrilled!  We decided to meet up and swap photo shoots for eachother....I can't wait to see what she comes up with!

Jordan and Jax were so much fun, so full of life, and so stinkin' cute!  They had fun playing in the snow, throwing snowballs at one another (and a few at me!)...

Here are some fun shots from their session!!

 

Beautiful momma & her kiddos

Aren't they cute...?

Meet Jax.....2 years old....and so full of life!!!

Meet Jordan....5 years old.....and super sassy!!

LOVE!!!

Thanks Casey for the cute pose idea!!

 

Winter is coming to an end here in Michigan......Yeah!!  Only a few more weeks and the snow shovels, winter boots and warm gloves will be no more!!!  Here is a photo of our little girl in the last bit of her first snow!!  Enjoy it :)

Ashlynn & Makenna are such little cuties!  My best friend Heather and I were lucky enough to be able to be pregnant together......due only a week apart.....both with girls!  She had twin girls.....and they are adorable!  I think that their oldest child, Austin, may just be the proudest big brother ever!!  Here are some photos from their newborn session....enjoy all of their cuteness!!

 

We had so much fun with Kayleigh & Ethan!  It was freezing out....but we still ended up having an amazing time!  It was Kayleigh's birthday.....and the birthday girl did not want anything to do with photos....along with her big brother Ethan!  Until a snowball fight broke out between us and the kids!!  We just chased these two cuties around snapping photos as we played....and let me tell you....this was sure difficult being 8 months pregnant!  Enjoy these two little ones and their bright, fun faces below!!!

This is where Kayleigh was telling us that she saw "one" deer.....

Look at her cute little Uggs!!

Aren't they sweet!!

And this is where the fun begins....

Joe was a good sport.....at least it was making the kids laugh!!
