Isaac is 3 months old!

Hard to believe it's been three months since I photographed Isaac's newborn session. He is growing like crazy, but so, so adorable. He was such a little trooper for his session - and smiled through the whole two hours. Even when we dressed him up in hats and a giraffe costume. Just adorable! Very difficult to pick my favorites, but here goes:

I believe this is the new Gerber Baby





That is Dad's brand new Jiu Jitsu blue belt - so we couldn't resist getting it in Isaac's session






Jason and Jill, you guys have the most precious baby! He gets cuter every time I see him. I could seriously bring him home with me. Thank you so much for sharing him with me. To see all of Isaac's 3-month session, click here. - Cheryl

Carson is 1

I met Carson's Mom and Dad last year at a wedding, and then met Carson when he was four months old. It was amazing to see how much he has grown. He's a pretty handsome little guy. I photographed him Sunday on the occasion of his first birthday. Here are my favorites:

How cute is he?!?


He has just started walking in the last week. So cute walking up on his tippy toes.



He had too much to investigate in the grass to be worried about me.

But then he had to come in for a closer look.

And then he got his smash cake!

This is his innocent look!

Doesn't everyone get icing on their toes when they eat cake?


I think he had just as much fun with his sink bath as his cake. Sadly I think Missy had just as much cake on her by the end.

Oh my gosh, he is just too cute.

I had so much fun photographing Carson. He is just too funny, and he had to show me all his tricks. I seriously could have brought him home with me. Missy and Eric, he is beautiful! Thank you so much for asking me to capture his first birthday! I can't wait to photograph his new baby brother. You can see all of Carson's portraits here. - Cheryl

The First 24 with Landon

After weeks of anxiously waiting, my friend, Amanda, had her beautiful baby boy this morning. I was really excited to get to photograph his very first hours of life in the hospital. It was so sweet sharing this time with them. I just love these First 24 sessions so much. Catching those first few hours of life is just absolutley amazing.


Landon was not a big fan of his first bath!



And, you can see that birthing babies is just exhausting!


Landon is really lucky because he's going to have the coolest big brother ever! Ben, had a big kiss for Landon


One-on-one bonding time with Mom



A little father-son bonding (isn't this just the sweetest thing ever?)





Amanda's parents checking out the big boy

Aren't they just a beautiful family?


Amanda and Ronnie, I am so happy for you guys and that everyone is healthy! Enjoy this precious little boy! - Cheryl

Emeri

At the beginning of the year I shot a maternity session for Rhianna. We all anxiously anticipated to arrival of little Emeri. Now she is 3 months old! Man time really flies. This weekend we shot her three-month old portraits, even though Emeri was teething and not really in the mood to be a supermodel.


But with a few breaks for little naps, we managed to get some great images.



And, in the end Emeri was pooped. Being a supermodel is hard work!
