You might remember this little guy from last summer

I had the pleasure of photographing him again for his 1st birthday portraits.

You can see her past sessions here:

(we have the same color hair, but no, she is not mine, lol)

Very sweet little man! He didn’t even mind when I sat him in the wet grass. And look at this smile!

. . .my children agree to allow me to photograph them.

As fast as she is adorable!

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 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.
