Happy Birthday | Fort Worth, TX Childrens Photographer

I will apologize now for the multitude of pictures in this sneak peek. I edited a TON of pictures from this session and had a hard time trying to figure out which ones to post. This was Little Miss L's one year session. She was a trooper in the heat and she even battled it out with balloons (but you'll see that the balloons won). We ended this session with a "smash the cake". She LOVED it, until she realized that she was messy and had to be cleaned up. Princesses don't get messy!

Katie- Miss L is precious and she rocked this session! You have many many more pictures to view! I hope these pictures bring you as many smiles as they have brought me editing them. Enjoy!

This is what happens when a balloon pops in front of a 1 year old.... made me laugh... made her cry.

Isn't she just an angel? And those cheeks! How great are those cheeks? I am pretty in love with this 1 month old... well maybe because it's my baby, Finley. 1 month already! What an amazing month it has been.

This was a product shoot for Creative Kiwi. I have photographed her hats before. She has cute hats and adorable baby booties! I added the bows to the hats in these pictures to show how you can change them up to match any outfit or photoshoot. Check out her site HERE.

Between diaper changes, snack times, diaper changes, meal times, nap times, errands, diaper changes... okay you get the picture... and trying to maintain a sense of myself I haven't pulled my camera out as much as I would like. It's the everyday moments that mean the most to me. Like capturing Harper's favorite place to "chill out". These are the moments that are going to make me laugh and cry years down the road...

And these are the hand prints and footprints that melt my heart....

And these are the innocent moments that I never want to forget...

And these are the times that I love to watch her explore her world...
I desperately need to get her out to do her 18 month portraits though... especially since she is about to be 19 months. Maybe this weekend? I love this kid!

As most of you know, I am a natural light photographer who almost always photographs outdoors. Well, I am now in the process of setting up my home studio at the request of many clients. I am very excited about it!!! We held this session indoors with my new backdrops. I love how they turned out! I had so much fun photographing this gorgeous 4 month old! We laughed the whole time. You will see more of this beauty soon beacuse we are doing another session with her, her sister and her mama. I can't wait!!

I can't help but laugh when I see this picture!!!

it's those eyes! | keller, tx child photographer

Don't these eyes just mesmerize you? I love them! This little 7 month old did so well during our session. This is my all time favorite age to photograph. 6 & 7 month olds are just happy happy babies. Life is good when you are baby!

I wish I knew what she was thinking here.......

Lisa- you have a beautiful family! I can't wait for you to see the rest of your pictures. Your daughter is a true beauty.

yep- more pictures | Cherished Memories Photography

Now that Finley is a little over 2 weeks old, I think it is time to wrap up her newborn sessions- I mean the kid has only had about 50 sessions now. I tried so hard to get pictures of Harper and Finley together. I even busted out the sucker bribe. The first two pictures are the only two decent shots I got of them together, but I'll take it! This weekend I start back with sessions, so check back for pictures of more cuteness!

The adorable pixie hats are from the wonderful Mrs. Jackie from Totz Hatz. Her products are all throughout my blog and website. Check out her boutique HERE, her ETSY site HERE and Facebook fan page HERE.

Since Finley begged me to take more pictures of her, I decided to set up another shoot. :)

my sweet addition | fort worth newborn photographer

She's here! She's here! My baby girl is finally here!!! Finley Jacqueline was born on April 23 at 12:23 weighing 8 lbs 2 oz. This delivery was even easier than my first! After 4 easy hours of labor Finley arrived with a full head of crazy black hair! Here are only a few of her newborn portraits... I am obsessed with the first one. I can't wait to post more pictures of my sweet girls- you know there are lots more to come.

You probably remember this cutie pie's beautiful mama.....

Well, of course she delivered a beautiful boy! Sawyer is absolutely perfect. He is lucky to be born into such a sweet family. His sister loves it when he wrinkles his forehead. She calls it his "old man face". This little man is going to be well taken care of by his big sister.

Kelli- congratulations on your beautiful family. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of this special time in your life. It has been a pleasure photographing your memories.
