B Family and Mini Newborn Session

3 kids in 3 years! AND we got TWO great family photos with ALL the kids looking with pretty darn good faces! Such a cute family, even with all the wiggles and blank stares we got some pretty darn cute photos. They were a great kick off to the family session during the fall!

 What I love about giving families ALL the pictures, even unedited, that they are not gonna really ever use, is that they get to see all the funny outtakes! This picture below of these sister is super cute, right? Well right before I got this was an identical one with the younger sister upright picking her nose, it was comical for everyone. Not a forever keeper but worth seeing.

 A couple months previous we did a little newborn shoot for her sweet little baby! I don't get to do many newborn photos outside, so when it was warm enough we ran outside with this cute boy and the light was beautiful! Love that sweet sleeping little baby face and lips!

3 days old! How sweet is she! I was amazed how awake baby girl wanted to be but we went with the flow. Mama just wanted a couple sweet newborn photos so a mini newborn photo shoot it was!

Oh how I loved this mini session with Amy and her family! She chose the mini 5 picture session and came totally prepared with ideas exactly what she wanted which I didn't mind one bit! That baby girl was practically dripping honey she was so sweet!

In her choice of 5 pictures she got 2 great family pictures, mom and baby, dad and baby, parents and baby. As always a quick painless session that turned out fantastic photos!

It is so fun for me to watch brand new parents love and adore on their brand new baby. Seeing that its their first, they've never experienced all these emotion before and it's so fun to freeze those small moments in a picture that will last forever. Welcome to the world baby girl!

How sweet is this baby face! This family is some close friends of ours, it was so much fun to get to photograph their new baby boy. He was wide awake the whole time I was there and very interested in all the new things happening. The love in that house was overwhelming with a newborn around. Here are a few of my favorites from our little mini session!

//The prettiest baby blessing dress you ever did see\\

Normally for my mini sessions I offer them to only families. But when a friend asked if I would do a mini session with her newborn in her gorgeously handmade blessing dress I thought to myself "Non moving target? CHYA!" So here's the cutie pies newborn/blessing dress mini session/ She was an angel the whole time with not a single cry. Here's a couple of my faves!

// hospital newborn session: baby king \\

i've never understood the term baby hungry until this session. these parents were oozing happiness, joy, and pride. the birth of a new baby is so special and magical that you have to experience it to truly appreciate it. because it was almost exactly 1 year to date since my son had been born, this session was very dear to my heart. all these smiles are the most genuine faces ever. i couldn't believe how overwhelmed i was with joy for them. it was my most favorite session to date for sure. 

welcome to the world baby king!

ps- this hospital had queen size beds, queen size!  it is so marvelous!

 below is by far my favorite picture.
