Spring Minis #2

Here are some more favorites from this spring's mini sessions!

Sweet L

I'm hoping to play blog catch up this month, so to begin, I want to share some sweet images from an adorable little boy taken earlier this spring. This little guy was a doll baby with the sweetest disposition. I don't think he cried once through a couple of outfit changes and even being stuffed in a basket! And I love those chubby cheeks! But then again I'm partial to chubby cheeked babies :)

Spring Minis - finally!

This poor blog is always the last to be updated when I'm super busy. But just because I haven't been blogging doesn't mean I haven't been shooting, creating, and editing, editing, editing. I have a couple of adorable sets of twins, a squishy newborn boy AND a girl, a small wedding, and a few fun families to update soon. Phew! No wonder I get behind on blogging. But if you're worried you're missing out on all the fun, I do update my Facebook fan page more often than this blog with sneak peeks and session updates. So come check it out!

Today, I want to update some of my favorite images from this year's spring mini sessions! Leave it to me to pick the HOTTEST weekend of the spring (and even really the summer so far) to hold my sessions, but that didn't stop me or the awesome families who came out from braving the heat and coming away with some precious shots. I don't have time to give each family a formal and individual shout out on here, but to those that see this, know how much I appreciate you and am grateful to you for trusting me with the images of your beautiful families and growing babies. Here are some I love.

I'll update with a few more favorite soon! I have too many for just one blog post :)

Baby M

It has cracked me up recently, as a mama of 2 precious boys, that literally every newborn client I've had in 2011 has had a baby girl! And it is SUCH fun for me to take a break from blue, trains, blocks, and boys and immerse myself in all things pink, frilly, and girly. And adorable baby M was no exception! M's mama (who had maternity images done earlier this spring) planned the best and most colorful accessories for baby's session. And she even did what very few mamas (myself included!) dare to do at just a few days post-partum and joined her daughter in a few family shots, and I'm SO glad she did because these precious images are some of my new favorite family images to date. As you'll see, I had a teensy bit of trouble deciding on my favorites.

M family

The M family, and OH, these precious M girls. I was so excited to meet this family and their twin girls because, let's face it, two adorable girls are quite often better than one - at least as far as capturing great images goes. In real life, I'm sure it's much tougher on Mama! It was SO fun to meet these cute twins and to see their unique looks and personalities. Little M's red hair and blue eyes are beyond precious (and obviously I'm a little partial to red-headed, blue eyed children :)), and sweet D is just stunning with her dark hair and eyes. M warmed up to me right away and had no problem giving sweet smiles and radiated contentedness, while D took a little longer to get comfortable. Although you'd never know that from these images because once she warmed up, she was just as smiley as her sister if not more so. I could just eat them up! But instead I'll just share my favorites from our time together in Atlanta.

Sweet C *newborn*

This newborn session was a special one, not only because I felt a little like a superhuman for pulling it off since Knox was only a few weeks old at the time, but also because precious C's mama is a sweet friend of mine and we got to walk through our whole pregnancies together. It was SO special for me because I didn't know any other preggo mommies when I was expecting Hayden, so sharing cravings, aversions, hopes, fears, and endless name options was great fun for me! And even though the C family now has 2 girls, while we have 2 boys, I know we're going to remain great friends who just happen to shop on opposite sides of every children's store :) Here are a few to share of this pretty little one (the first of which is one of my new all-time favorite newborn shots!):





With big sister L, who is one of the best-dressed toddlers I've met.
