Portrait of a child…in 17 seconds

Unamused.  Extremely so.

We got her!

I had a few minutes to visit my brothers family back in December, most of which were spent taking pictures of Halle.  I wish I remember now what we did to make her smile, but that first picture cracks me up.

Baby Sale!

No, I’m not selling adorable, scrumptious babies.  I’ve had so much fun photographing my 6-9 month old niece and nephew lately that I’ve decided to have a sale to hopefully encourage some more photo shoots of babies that age :).

So if you have (or will have) a baby 6-9 months old and you live in Houston, the session fee is 50% off for the next 7 days!  Email me at kelli@kellinicolephotography.com before Wednesday, February 17th 11:59  pm (CST) and send in a deposit and signed contract before the end of the month.  Session must be completed by the end of July.

And to put a face to this perfect baby age, a couple more pictures of Max.  In the last few days he’s mastered the art of crawling (while stealing girls’ hearts).

And he started to make this face all the time.  A little blue steel anyone?

B Kiddos Sneak Peak

I have barely been able to look at the pics from this shoot so I just grabbed a few that caught my eye.  Such happy kids!  I love the way little Lily clasped her hands together here!  She started cracking up and not even her mom had ever heard her laugh so heartily.

What little girl doesn’t like to dress-up?  This one of Evie was particularly adorable.

LOVE this little outfit and that eye contact!  Such a perfect little round face and pink lips.

He Melts My Heart

Crazy to think that this little guy was the same one that I watched come into this world the day I graduated last year!  He was much more wrinkly and old-man-ish back then.  He is such a perfect baby; he’ll eat anything, entertain himself for hours, and never gets frustrated when he’s working on something (such as pulling out everything from the bottom shelf of the freezer while mom is putting away groceries). Not to mention those California-surfer-boy good looks.

We got these shots RIGHT after he woke up.  I wanted to capture that look, bedhead and pj’s and all, and since he was still in that just-woke-up daze he sat still for quite some time :).

I just love love love this face and that crazy bedhead.

He’s started crawling, but a lot of the time it’s this funny side-winding army crawl.  It’s so adorable.

If I could photograph 6-9 month old babies everyday I would be so happy.  Love you Max!
