3 Months of Sweetness

Love Love Love my 1st year clients. I love babies, and what an awesome job to get to document the big milestone's of sweet little ones first years. I get pretty attached to my 1st year babies...and this little sweetie is no exception. She was a complete angel at her newborn shoot....and at 3 months, yep...pretty darn perfect. 3 months for me is the hardest age to shoot, they usually don't do much at this age and smiles are sometimes hard to come by. Well, this sweetie proved me way wrong....smiles....tummy time...exploring her hands, she was a treat to "shoot".

She was pretty sleepy when she first arrived, and took a little snooze in my basket. LOVE this outfit, I ooohhhed and aahhhed over it quite a bit.

Mommy & Daddy trying to coax her awake. This is the easiest family to get those "real life moments of" they photograph so beautifully together.

Yep, she is awake and happy as can be! See what I mean, a complete dream boat of a baby.

I am so glad I was able to get a good shot of her eyelashes. Holy Moly, they are sooo long. Lucky girl :) Usually it is the boys with the long eyelashes.

I LOVE these next set of pictures. She was all about putting her hands in her mouth...but I LOVE it. It warms my heart. Having experienced all the little things they do that don't last long...I know this is an exciting new discovery for her and it will be one that is short lived. So fun to capture how much she enjoys those hands :)

I did zero touch up to her eyes...just some amazingly reflective beautiful blues!

What a great shoot! Thank you guys again for asking me to

be part of your 1st year as a family. It is an absolute pleasure!! I can

not wait until 6 months :)

See you soon!

Clara - 9 months

If you follow me at all on here or Facebook, then you know I have the cutest baby niece who I just adore. I am loving the chance to capture her first year! Something I wasn't able to do with my own girls because I wasn't a Photographer quite yet. So Clara gets to put up with me taking her picture every 3 months. Because of my insanely crazy Fall schedule...we had to sneak her 9 month shoot in on Thanksgiving. Lucky for us we had pretty mild weather and my Aunt and Uncles house served as the perfect spot (after stuffing ourselves with Turkey. ha ha).

Get ready to be mesmerized by the cutest little blond hair blue eyed girl around!

How about that darling turkey shirt...love that Jess ordered that and that I was able to get some pictures of her in it.

She was doing this thing with her lip were she sucks in her bottom lip. In editing these pictures I noticed she is doing it in almost every single one. She doesn't do this as much...so I am happy I was able to capture it so much. Babies grow so fast and the lip suck thing is just a little bleep on her life's big picture. One of the little things my brother and sister in law might forget in 15 years that she even did it at all...the beauty of pictures :)

We cheered "Yeah Clara"...and she of course had to clap for herself :)

Don't you just want to squeeze her?? I know I do.

Then my Aunt brought out a very old rocking horse, she was able to do it on her own for a few seconds.

But she was much happier holding on to mom's hand. My biggest smile I got out of her for the day.



Clara Boo,

Your Aunt Lisa LOVES you sooo much! Being your and Kearsten's Aunt is the 2nd best

thing to being a mommy. I can't believe your going to be 1 in just a few weeks. Where does

the time go!?!

Check back for Clara's 1 year shoot...I will be doing it tomorrow and I can't wait!

xoxox,

Aunt Lisa

Baby Sweetness to End the Year

I was a lucky girl, I got to spend my last afternoon of 2011 photographing this new beauty! She was about 3 weeks old when I met her and just the cutest thing. And oh my, such a good baby!

I love watching new parents, especially first time parents with their babies. The love just oozes out of them :)

From a couple to a family...love it!

She had an extra special visitor that I was glad I was able to meet too. Her Grandfather was visiting her from England. Here she is holding his finger....I am in awe of the size difference. LOVE this one.

A little tribute to her Daddy :) Her mommy's co-workers gave her some of the neatest gifts. Including the outfit above with matching doll.

The most perfect feet, this is one of my favorite newborn feet shots. She could be a foot model :)



Thank you all for opening your home to me and asking me to capture

such a special time in your lives. Your a blessed family! Enjoy this first

year, it is so magical and goes by sooo fast.

Best Wishes,

Lisa

A Rising Star

I have had the pleasure of "shooting" this young lady before. We met for some "head shots" last summer and I enjoyed my time with her. She is such a sweet heart, the same age as my Abby :) Things have gone well for her in her in her quest for modeling.

She has changed a lot since this summer and has learned what the Industry is looking for, so we met up for "round two" of head shots. She had a fabulous Make Up Artist do her make up (Hi Frenchie!).

I had so much fun with directing her into poses, she really can work a camera and didn't need much direction. Gorgeous girl!!



Your a shining star and I know you will go far! Please

keep me posted and I know I will see you in print some day :)
