Don’t you love all of S’s hair??  It does make it a little difficult to put in headbands sometimes as you can get funny wisps of hair poking out all over the place!

Her mama is from the Philippines so it was a lot of fun to talk to her about it!  I lived there for a short time several years back and the conversation made me yearn for mangoes and pineapple.  I even left with this amazing little mango desert a friend brought back from the Phils.  It was so tasty!

Thanks for letting me play with your perfect baby for the day! (and thanks for that incredible gumbo too!)

I did Kristen’s maternity pictures and baby Emma’s newborn pictures 3 weeks apart!  I never got the chance to blog her maternity pictures, so here’s one that I really liked.

Introducing Emma!

They had this Christmas hat and ornaments so we put together a little Christmas set-up!  I think it turned out really cute :).

I glanced into their yard and loved this one little shaded corner.  I knew we had to do a shot out there!

After the maternity session (here) I should have known the newborn session would be such a joy!  G (or E, depending on what you want to call her) was just so precious.  Look at that smile!

And those lips!  Oh, those lips.

This is my favorite!  I LOVE all these colors together.  That headband is a new favorite.  They wouldn’t let me take it home though, so I had to go buy my own :).  She just looks so peaceful too.  Love.

So fun to see you again and meet your little beauty!

I got to photograph Connor when he was right at about a week old and he was a great client!  I’ve photographed so many blue-eyed babies lately and Connor got to join that club :).

See?  He’s such a good poser.

I love this hat!  I wish more people chose it :).  It looked so good on the green blanket!

We got a sweet little smile at the very end of the session!  So glad I decided to do a few more shots.
