Alicia and Tim came up to the lake with their little sweetheart Brynn, for some with-baby and some without-baby engagement shots. She is picture perfect, can’t wait to see her in her flower girl attire! Oh and I think the wedding will be a lot of fun… : )

My friends Sarah and Steve’s adorable daughter:

Baby Erikson was born mid-January and is one of the cutest newborns EVER! She is so adorable, I couldn’t stop shooting her. See for yourself!

Baby Larkin was born in October – cousin to Taylor – and has some of the funniest expressions I have seen on a newborn… what a crack-up!

My friend Jennifer dropped by with her kids, and while our boys played outside her and 6 week old Olivia chilled on the couch – of course I couldn’t resist, so here are some unscripted impressions…

This session concluded Drayson’s first year documentary; it was a little past his actual birthday, but he got to have a cupcake nonetheless! It had been a while since I last saw him and I barely recognized him – he has changed sooo much, he’s walking and into everything.
Before the big messy cupcake we spent some time out front:

Baby Dray’s last shoot before the big first birthday! He’s sooo active and wants to explore everything now. And he babbles and babbles and giggles over every little thing… such a joy.

Baby Dray was back – boy, has he grown! He is now 9 months old and crawling – which means he doesn’t sit still for longer than 0.05 seconds – and he is oh so cute! And into Cheerios : )

One quick one, before I leave… I wanted to show more, but it is very late… from Drayson’s Christmas shoot, which was so much fun, to see the excitement and fascination in his eyes. So, here’s my favorite:

Have a happy holiday season – whichever holiday you may celebrate – and a great start into the new year!

Another month older, another hour at the studio – Drayson was back. No superman moves this time, but he’s almost ready to sit on his own! In the baby-milk-breaks I had fun with Ashlyn; and I love their are-we-done-yet faces in the very first photo we took!
