This little nugget was pure eight-day-old perfection. She was calm and sweet and I can tell she is the third baby – at least for me, she was very chill. I just could not love my job more.
Meet Bailey!








Isn’t she sweet?
Love,

Hello to all my blog followers (all two of you – hi, Mom!)!
My apologies for the lack of posts recently. Between a cruel winter when someone at my house was sick nearly every day since the beginning of December and the busy life of a mom of three, as well as photo shoots and editing, my blog updates fell by the wayside…but I figure it is time to start up again and revamp my business…watch for a new logo and a fresh look to my web site soon. And what better subject to blog on than a fabulous recent learning experience I had?
I had the pleasure of traveling a little over a week ago to the studio of the AMAZING Kelley Ryden just outside of Omaha, NE. She is one of the top newborn photographers in the country (and world!). I have been adding more baby posing to my newborn sessions (but never fear, I will always offer my more photojournalistic-style shooting, too), and figured it couldn’t hurt to learn from the BEST about ways I can improve, so I signed up for her workshop. She did not disappoint. I was so impressed by her ability to calm and pose the newborns (along with her equally impressive sister, Tracy). A few people have called me the “Baby Whisperer” after watching me in action with newborns, but these two really are amazing. I hope I can get to their caliber of baby whispering some day. :)
It was an awesome, overwhelming, super informative day. Without further ado, here are some photos I took of the two SWEETIES we photographed that day.






Oh, so much fun!

I am finally returning to my blog, after quite a hiatus. But the hiatus was for good reason: January 17, Ryan and I welcomed our much-anticipated third baby, a girl, who we named Vivienne Kate. I was extremely surprised, as I was expecting a boy. I cried and cried tears of joy when the doctor handed her to me. She was so tiny compared to my boys, and such a content little newborn. Now she is six weeks old and is still proving to be easy for the most part. She likes to sleep (though not quite long enough at night for my liking), has smiled at us several times, and her parents and brothers are just smitten with her.
Introducing my sweet little girl…
Daddy and Vivi meeting for the first time.

So tiny.



It was much harder shooting newborn photos of my own baby than shooting them for my clients…but of course, I still managed to get some!








Yes, I have a thing for newborn feet…they are just so adorable!

I am sure there will be more to come!

Maybe it is because I am anticipating the arrival of my third baby in a couple of months and a new niece OR nephew sometime this month, but this newborn session was such a joy for me…I loved holding this tiny, sweet little girl and hanging out with her awesome parents (I went to college with her dad!). She arrived early, and though she was three weeks old for this shoot, she was still so tiny. Everything about this shoot was great, and I am so excited to share these sneak peeks with her parents!

So cozy!

This girl has some cool parents who definitely adore her!

Don’t miss the bloomers. Precious!

Love these shots of mom & dad taking in their little girl…


One final close up. Perfection.

Zach and Francine, I can’t wait for you to see the entire collection – very soon!
Love,
