Bittersweet... My last newborn session until my own arrives!

This weekend I had my very last newborn session before my own newborn arrives sometime around the end of May. It's very bittersweet. I'm going to miss being surrounded by beautiful babies for the next several weeks, but I'm so excited to meet and photograph Baby Drouet: The Sequel.

But enough about me... I'm sure you'd rather meet Miss Ainsley. Isn't she precious?

I love the pout :)


And for those that have asked, the adorable hat is from the talented Kim K. at From My Heart to Your Head. I love it!

Sneak Peek: Raegan

Sunday afternoon I got to meet again with an old friend... little Miss Raegan. I can't believe she's one already! I first took pictures of Raegan when she was just four months old. This was our fourth session together and even with an ear infection, Raegan was her usual sweet, happy self.

And just for some flashback fun, these pictures were from Raegan's first session. My how time flies!

Dylan's Day at the Park: Part III

Warning: Picture heavy! And yes, I said I have more to proof. Can you imagine? Scary!

And its wild iris season in Louisiana. It can't compete with the bluebonnets in Texas, but hey, it's the best I could do! :)

Dylan's Day at the Park: Part II

I finally got around to editing more of the pictures of Dylan from a couple weeks ago. And I still have more to go! Yikes!

Sneak Peek: Genevieve

Last weekend I had the pleasure of photographing little Genevieve. I just love, love, love me some newborns. :) Isn't she too sweet for words?

Sleepy newborn smiles are the best!

Something a Little Different...

Well, the day I have dreaded for so long has finally arrived... Dylan has come down with an acute case of PKS. For those not "in the know" PKS is Photographer Kid Syndrome. What this means is that my smiling, impish, fun-loving little boy now refuses to look at me if the "black box of torture" (aka my Nikon D300) is anywhere in the vicinity. And no amount of calling his name, yelling "uh-oh," singing the "Itsy Bitsy Spider," making silly noises, or other previously successful (albeit embarassing) tricks will entice him to glance my way - let alone smile. So this Saturday I decided to try something different. I took Dylan to the park and took non-smiling, no-eye-contact pictures. I've only processed one so far. What do you think?

My Little Man

These pictures are actually from back in January. I thought I had posted them back then, but I just looked around and I don't see them on the blog so... here they are! Better late than never, right? ;)

Isn't he a handsome devil? I'm hoping to get him out to the park again this weekend for some updated pics.

Sneak Peek: Triple Feature

Meet Meredith, her brother Noah, and their new cousin Connor. Meredith and Noah have appeared here on the blog before, but this is Connor's debut! :)

Sneak Peek: Jake

How cute is he?! Jake wasn't too sure about getting his picture taken, but stickers (as you can see in the third picture) helped! ;)

Sneak Peek: Jeanne-Marie

Well, as y'all may have noticed I'm behind in my sneak peeks again! So this is actually a post-peek, but I wanted to share anyway. So here's Jeanne-Marie:



Do you think she loves that giraffe? ;)
