The holidays are here!

I last saw this family when the youngest one was a newborn - my how she's grown in 9 months!

It's hard to believe the holiday season is starting, when it has been in the 90's all week and you still need the a/c in the car sometimes. But the holidays are definitely here, as you can tell by the festive outfits in this shot. Somehow it's hard to get into the holiday spirit when everyone is still wearing shorts, but there are little signs that winter really is on its way.

Welcome, baby Elizabeth!

Elizabeth was born on October 29, and I got to meet her when she was only 2 weeks old. What beautiful little hands she has, and the most expressive eyes. Congratulations to her family, what a wonderful little girl she is!

Niyema's baptism

I just saw this little sweetheart a couple of weeks ago for her Halloween photo (she's the little bee from October 26). She was recently baptized and her she is, looking absolutely beautiful in her Christening gown.

Happy Halloween from a busy bee!

Happy Halloween from little Niyema! She's certain to get lots of candy and goodies with that sweet little face and precious smile.

Baby Annie - 3 months old

Three months can be a difficult age to photograph a baby - they aren't sleepy newborns any more, but they aren't yet old enough to be able to be entertained very easily. Baby Annie was such a great subject, though - she was full of smiles and was so easy to work with. Here she is safe and sound in her daddy's arms.

Playing catch-up

I've been so busy with the start of the holiday season that I've fallen sorely behind on my Blog! Anyway, I loved this little girl's outfit, so retro but so perfect for her. She wasn't too happy when we started our session, but I'd like to think we were friends by the time she left. I love this silly expression, it's so typical 4-year old girl!

Happy birth day, Tatum!

Tatum is such a precious little girl - so cooperative, and she pretty much slept through whatever I did. She did open her eyes for a few shots, and what beautiful eyes they are. When she wasn't sleeping, she was certainly interested in everything that was going on around her. She's only a couple of weeks old, and what a beautiful addition to her family she makes.

Maddox - a bundle of energy

Maddox recently turned 2 years old, and he had his birthday photos taken at Sun City Grand. He chased rabbits, met a cute little girl, threw rocks in the pond and generally had a good time. Happy Birthday, Maddox!

Will - two years old.

Doesn't he look thrilled to have his very own birthday cake? Will is 2 years old and came in for some birthday portraits. The fake cake looks nice but wasn't nearly as much fun as the REAL cake he got to play with later on!

Welcome, little Brady!

Isn't this little guy just the cutest? He was so easy to work with, such a happy baby! Congratulations to Brady's mom and dad, he really is a bundle of joy.

Cousins!

These three little ones are cousins. The youngest one is visiting from back east, unfortunately he's here in the midst of a new heat record for Arizona! Hot weather or not, I know my kids love to hang out with their cousins.

Gorgeous blue eyes


This is Kaden, and what a little cutie he is! I have loved his blue eyes since his first session when he was 4 months old. He's a bit older now and has grown up a lot in that time, but his eyes are just as beautiful as ever.

A precious little bundle of joy


This is baby Hayden. He was born July 30, and I got to meet him when he was less than a couple of weeks old. He is definitely the most mellow baby I've ever worked with, sleeping almost the whole time. He looked so precious and peaceful, and really was a pleasure to photograph.

First Holy Communion

This is Travis, he's the son of one of my friends from work. He had his first holy communion back in April and she wanted to get some portraits done before he outgrows his clothes. That happens so quickly at his age, it seems like nothing fits for more than a few weeks. Anyway, Travis is a pretty cool kid and he follows directions so much better than all of the newborns I work with. I think his marroon shirt was pretty cool too...all the kids wear white shirts, but he was a little different with his outfit.

Welcome, baby Steven!

I got the chance to meet little Steven this past week - only he's not really LITTLE Steven! He was a big guy, born at 9lbs 11oz. He's got the most beautiful skin and hair and was wonderfully alert during our session.

Welcome baby Shanaiya!

Shanaiya is the cutest little girl, isn't she? She has beautiful curly hair and the most expressive brown eyes I've ever seen. She was quite cooperative as far as newborns go, and she was so much fun to work with!

Welcome Gavyn!

This is Gavyn, born July 20. He was so well-behaved and cooperative for our photo session, and such beautiful dark eyes!

3-month old Avery

Avery is the newest member of the Little Lovebugs VIP club. She's three months old and already a little cutie! I love her blue eyes, they are such a gorgeous color.
