{Silk and Flowers} Frisco- Dallas- Highland Park Family Photographer

I was lucky enough to meet this sweet girl in her mama's belly, then at her birth and her newborn session. I couldn't believe that she was six months already! Time goes too quickly. We did some of just her and some as a family. We even squeezed in Grandma and Grandpa. We had a lovely afternoon with spring flowers blossoming everywhere! Not to mention she was wearing silk. Did you know silk has to be dry cleaned? LOL! We think she knew that, as she decided it was the perfect outfit to get dirty. Babies are the best. Enjoy!

{Sleeping Willow} Mckinney- Allen- Frisco Newborn Photographer

I had the joy of photographing her mama's maternity session as well as her birth, so I was so excited to finally get to snuggle and love this sweet girl. She was an angel for our session and I was so glad her mama and daddy were flexible as I was called to a birth the first time I tried to do our session! It worked out though and her session is one of my favorites to date!

Just one little sneak...

{Mama's Love} McKinney- Frisco- Plano Maternity Photographer

I was so excited to see this family again! I was blessed to do maternity and newborn photographs for their first and again now, as they are expecting number two! This isn't a maternity sneak peek, but I loved it so much, I had to share it. His mama just loves him so much and he adores her. What a blessing. I promise actual maternity images are forthcoming!

{Beautiful Ava} McKinney- Frisco- Plano Newborn Photographer

This little girl threw everyone off and decided to come early! Thankfully I was able to work in her session anyway and I was so glad I did! She was just tiny and beauiful and slept so wonderfully for us. I can't wait for Mom and Dad to see the rest of these, but in the meantime, I thought I would share just one with my favorite new hat!

{Windows to the Soul} Arlington- Irving- Dallas Baby Photographer

This sweet little girl does not like to smile for me. I even went to her house and played with her toys and crawled around on the floor acting like a goofball. No luck. While I know mom was disapointed in the lack of laughter, I always come away from her sessions feeling like you could reach down and touch her very soul. Her face and eyes are so deep and she conveys great emotion even without a smile. I just love her to peices!!!









The only smile we got was in the swimming pool... our last ditch effort!!

{Spring is here!} Dallas- Garland- Plano Child Photographer

Sping has sprung and we had a lovely session at the Arboretum with my smilely girl. She is so sweet... 6 outfit changes, numerous positions, flowers and three hours later we finally finished our session! The amazing part was that she was teething. You could hardly tell. What a trooper.

We were blessed with some lovely images though. And once again, we got her to sleep. I will be shocked if we accomplish it at her one year session too! Enjoy this sweet girl and her smile!

{Sleepy Smiles} Frisco- Mckinney- Plano Newborn Photographer

I wouldn't normally say that my newborns are smiley. Usually they are sleeping! However, this sweet little man blessed me with a great big smile as his parents kissed his head, and I CAUGHT IT! You can imagine my glee! Not only that, but he was just wonderful and sleepy for our whole session. I felt very lucky. This little man was born early and spent time in NICU, meaning that he was older than normal. But he did wonderfully. Not to mention he has wonderful and loving parents whom I thoroughly enjoyed spending time with. Enjoy these, you guys and congrats!

{Naked is best} Mckinney- Allen- Frisco Child Photographer

Maybe it was the weather this last week. Or me? But I walked in the door to See Eli again for his three month session and he immediately burst into tears! I was a little worried about what that meant for the rest of the session. He did cheer up though (after giving us so seriously cute pouty faces) after we discovered that he was much happier... naked! We were great with that and happily did the session with him that way. The chub was too much! Enjoy these!

{Where are the smiles?} Frisco- Mckinney- Allen Child Photographer

I was so excited to see Miss Ella again. She has gotten SO BIG! However, she seemed a little unsure why I had invaded her house, dressed her up and stood in front of her with a toy acting like an idiot. ;) So she decided to stare at us for three hours. I think we got her to crack a few half smiles, but nothing like a real smile. I figure we just have to wait for the 6 month session. Either way, we got some beautiful images and the best part... a sleeping shot!











And last but not least, an example of how much she has grown...

At her newborn session:



At her three month session:

{Wide Awake} Plano- Allen- Murphy Newborn Photographer

I had the joy of photographing one of my great friend's new addition. It is always so fun to cuddle a baby, but even more fun when you know his little family! This little man has slept well every day... except the day I come! Figures. The great thing though is that he was totally great. He was happy to just lay there while I did my thing. We did eventually get him to sleep. Oh and you all have to watch for some new additions from his wonderfully talented mama. She does my knitting!! I have an amazing new hat coming up soon!

We'll start with the silly one and one of my favs! This was the beginning of a sneeze.











This well loved pouch was made by his mama!

{Baby Fever} Dallas- Garland- Richardson Child Photographer

Baby Fever is what I got from this little man. Seriously, I could have snuggled him all day! I was there 4 hours, so I sort of did. He was all smiles and cooing at me as long as he was in someones arms. The minute we set him down... no way! But I am a smart photog and we got around it. I hope you love these as much as I love that little man of yours!



The mobile was supposed to make him smile and be OUT of the image, but I loved it in.



A little blue processing to match those incredible blue eyes just for fun...





Too big for baskets...

{So Yummy} Highland Park- Dallas- Downtown Newborn Photographer

So this lovely little girl was 8 weeks old by the time I got to her to do her newborn session. While that isn't the ideal time, she was so great! The thing I love about older newborns is their skin. It was so creamy and smooth that I didn't have to do anything to it! She was an angel and but up with a lot, even kisses from her older brothers. Thanks guys for sharing your sweet family with me!

I couldn't decide how I liked the image best...













Those sweet brother kisses...
