    6 months of cuteness training paid off…

    Posted inbaby,baby's first year,family

    It was almost 3 years ago I started working with the D family. Back then they were a cute new family of 3, just getting used to the little lady that had quickly become the center of their universe.  Then I got to capture the family moving to my very own little town with their beautiful new home. And just recently it was my pleasure to capture the newest addition of the lovely miss Ellery! For real, I love these guys. Well the family is back, to celebrate the 6 month mark for little Elle.  She was a beautiful newborn, and she has gotten even cuter! I had the two little ladies up to the studio last week and I have to say I am excited to share these! Smiles and giggles all around.

    Here are a few of my favorites so far:

    These girls are CUTE right!

    Little miss E has some seriously sparkling eyes.

    Miss Addy turned 3 just a few days after our session. So big already! And look at her smile, heart melting.

    Ellery has some delicious toes to go with that sweet smile.

    :)

    Gah I dare you not to smile back.

    Such a sweet little girl. She was so good for me.

    Shhhh don’t tell mom but I might have encouraged someone to jump on the bed.

    We also brought out a certain favorite doll.

    And one last shot of little miss E with that killer smile.

    Amy thanks for your flexibility and for trekking into Portland for our session. I had a great time playing with you all once again. You make some seriously cute babies! I will have the whole gallery very soon. But.. you know what time it is right? Comment challenge time, this time for a cute little brag book. Lets say 30 comments this time shall we, and see if we can break your time record? Ready, set go! Leave some love people.

    and then there were 4

    Posted inbaby,baby's first year,family,newborns

    Quick look up, you see the rotating banner on this very blog? If you wait long enough there is a ridiculously cute little girl in a pink sweater against a green wall. See it? That was last October, and allot has changed since then. That very girl is now a BIG SISTER! Exciting stuff. It was my honor to capture the new little brother and family of four. Simon is just as cute as his big sister. He was such a boy for me too! I had a great time with the whole family.

    Here are a few of my favorites so far:

    Meet Simon, he is already such a dapper little lad. :)

    And yes Claire did get cuter, as if it were possible. :)

    These two were so sweet together. Miss Claire is already such a loving big sister.

    The whole family was just adorable, and clearly in love with the newest addition.

    Once the group shots were over we did a few of just the new guy. I love this hat that is daddy knit. So sweet.

    I love me some baby bits, and Simon’s little lips and bed head was really the best.

    He also woke up for a bit there. I think he was trying to tell us how great his eyes would look against this blanket his mama made for him.

    Sweet boy, I love all his chub here.

    He’s just smooch-able right.

    While Simon took a nursing break I got a few of Claire and Daddy. These make me smile. And back to baby cuteness. Oh that mouth so sweet.

    Such a sweet boy, he was so good for me!

    And a few with mama of course. I am pretty sure these arms are his favorite place to be.

    And one last shot of the whole family. I love Claire’s little face here. So much love in this foursome. :)

    Crissie thanks again for having me out to meet the new little guy. He was such a sweet boy, congratulations again on the addition to your sweet family. I am so looking forward to seeing them grow over the next year. :) I hope you enjoy your sneak peek. I should have the whole gallery done for you very soon.  And of course I know how you love your little brag book.  Lets get another in the words with this little guy. If you can get 30 people to comment on this post, I will throw in another set of cute little books.

    Sweet Talia at 6 months

    Posted inbaby,baby's first year

    I am not going to pontificate much today. My entire family has been battling the flu, and I am rushing trying to get out last moment holiday print orders. Oh and there is the small matter of our own holiday cards and gifts to attend too. Either way it is nuts in the G household these days, but I just had to share a few from my session with the always adorable and sweet little Talia. You remember her baby session in corvallis a few months back right? Well she is back and even more adorable than ever.

    Here are a few quick favorites so far:

    So big already!

    Mama made this hat, how cool is that.

    This one is hands down my favorite of the day. :)

    Such a sweet family.

    Bonnie and Matt thanks again for trekking all the way up to Newberg and being down with all of my ideas. I have the whole gallery almost finished and will be sending you that info again shortly. :)

    Liam the king of cute

    Posted inbaby,baby's first year,newborns

    While I always love meeting new people, one of the other  best parts of my job is being able to capture special times in friends & loved ones lives. I have know Jaime for a long, long time. It was my honor to capture her wedding not too long ago, then her beautiful belly, then visit her in the hospital when a certain little one arrived. Well of course Mr. Liam the king of cute got his own special photo session. Gah I love the newborns, even if the make me work for it. All of the shushing and rocking paid off, I am really pleased with the photos we came out with.

    Here are a few of my favorites:

    such a beautiful boy!

    those little feet get me every time.

    Such an alert boy for only 1 week old too.

    His beautiful mama.

    Such a smoochable face too.

    :)

    I love the way Will talks to him too, you can tell these two are going to be close.

    The whole family.

    Clearly there is no shortage of love here.

    Liam welcome to the world, I can not wait to see you grow up. Pretty soon I am sure you and my Giffin will be wrestling and running around the house. I can’t wait!

    Erica + Mike + Banks!

    Posted inbaby,baby's first year,family,kids,love!

    You may remember a certain little squishy faced baby last year, well baby Banks is having his first birthday! He is such an adorable big boy, I can not believe it was just last year we were doing his first session! Banks being one is not the only reason to celebrate, there is also a very important wedding of a certain Mommy & Daddy coming up next month! So to celebrate all the big events and joy going around we arranged another session this time outside in the beautiful fall weather. Erica & Mike were great sports tromping through the weeds and bugs with me. We had a great time, and Banks ran his little tush off. Here are a few of my favorites from our first year/family/engagement session.

    Check out the big birthday boy!

    The whole lovely family, smiles all around. :)

    Erica and Mike are pretty adorable just on their own.

    Banks is even cuter these days, who knew that was possible.

    We had fun running around can you tell.

    I can not wait to shoot their wedding next month!

    I just know it is going to be a super fun event.

    And one last shot of the star of the show. Gah that smile kills me!

    Erica & Mike thanks for joining me out on the trail, and for the Latte! You guys are the best. I am so looking forward to your wedding next month! Of course I know how you love the blog challenges. If you can get 30 comments on the blog I will throw in your choice of an 11×14 or another set of wallet brag books. :) So leave some love people.
