Jeannette’s Newborn Photos, Family Photography
It's always amazing to see friends you've known for forever become parents. Brittany and I have known each other since we were seven years old and little Brownie Girl Scouts! She met the love of her life just after Andy and I got married in 2007
Amelia’s 9 Month Bubble Bath and Easter Photos, Menifee Baby Photography
Rachel and I had been racking our brains trying to come up with something unique for the little miss' 9 month photos. A few times Rachel had mentioned wanting to get a photo of Amelia in an old wash tub—like a photos she had of herself as a child—so that inspired our outdoor bubble bath session! But first, we had to get a few photos in her Easter dress! What I love most about having these sessions every 3 months is capturing the ever changing personality of a child. Mia loves to clap and gives these amazing crinkle nose smiles! And for awhile now she's been standing up—when holding on to anything she can, but holding mama's hand is definitely the sweetest! And now time for the bath photos! Again, I love how these capture Mia so perfectly. She's so observant, always looking down to explore everything within reach. And of course, once that new found object is within her little hands, in the mouth it goes! These last few remind me so much of Mia's newborn session when she would not leave her mama's arms. So so sweet! Baby Mia
Rachel and Amelia’s Bedroom in the Trees, Mama and Baby Photography
This photo shoot came to being when Rachel and her little babe stayed the weekend at my house. Seeing them snuggled up together in bed sparked an idea to make a little outdoor bed complete with a wooden pallet headboard, a bedroom among the trees if you will. We definitely were just "winging" it the day we scampered about town looking for a location and finally found this grove of trees within a 5 minute drive from my house. In my head I pictured our little sleepy baby from Amelia's newborn and 3 month photos, but of course the little miss was wide awake

Oh how this little babe loves to sleep! When we took Miss Amelia's photos at 1 week old, she wouldn't wake up for anything
Amelia Celine, Newborn Photography and Birth Announcement, with her Mama Rachel
Miss Amelia made her debut a few weeks early, gracing us with her presence on June 8, just weeks after her baby shower. Rachel and I wasted no time in getting together for photos exactly on her one week birthday. The little princess did not want to show us her skin but I did manage to snap my favorite photo before we bundled her back up! She just loved being close to her mama
