A recent precious newborn girl and the baby “bits” collage I designed for her. Collages are a beautiful and artistic way to display all of those tiny details you don’t want to forget.

Newborn Portraits Collage

Look at the cute little lips!

It’s always so wonderful to watch my littlest clients grow. The last time I saw this sweet little guy he was a newborn. Now he is 9 months old, sitting up and even doing the “diaper dance”.

I’m such a bad blogger these days! I have more sessions than I can count that have not been featured here on the blog and I am going to try and fix that very soon. In the meantime, I wanted to share a few recent maternity images. I have had an abundance of maternity clients in the past few months, which means very soon I will also have an abundance of newborns to photograph. I can’t wait!

Some of these were shot “in home” and some were shot in the studio. Where you have your maternity session really depends upon the look you are going for. I hope these images can give you an idea of the difference between the two styles.

This was not quite what we had planned. The image was supposed to just be hands and no faces. But I love how it turned out even more. Mistakes can be good things!

I belong to a wonderful organization called Operation Love Reunited that provides portraits for the families of deployed military members. Recently, I was thrilled to be able to shoot maternity  portraits for Ashley while her husband served in Iraq. When their sweet baby girl was born, Daddy got to come home for a few weeks to see her and I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing him as well.

It’s Christmas eve. The presents are actually wrapped before midnight this year. Soon we will light candles and begin our celebrations. But I wanted to share some recent family sessions before I go. I had the pleasure of photographing many families this year for their holiday cards. Each one was unique and each one was a delight. Here are some of my favorite images.

This little fellow was an absolute joy to work with. I’ve been trying to blog all day, but I had a such a hard time selecting images. They were all beautiful!
