Owen & Annika

This was Miss Annika's three month shoot! Perhaps you remember her newborn portraits?

Look at those adorable cheeks this girlie is getting!

I like to shoot at the client's home, because I like the images I capture to match the memories people have of their habits and routine. I'm sure this mama has many memories of rocking her babies to sleep, and now she has some pictures of it too. :)

All smiles after her cap-nat!

For the whole family portion of the shoot, we went to the Bush library.

Annika can sleep anywhere (or maybe I bore her!)

Owen is the sweetest big brother!

Maxx

I've shot this little guy three times now, and every year he gets easier to shoot. (and he wasn't hard to start with).

Can't you just tell this is one animated little man?

Love this kid!

Jackson & Andrew

Shortly after we started this family shoot it started to rain...so we spent about 10 minutes under the overhang at the Bush Library hoping the rain would go away.... and we got lucky and it totally did! (this is not usually the case, ha!)

Andrew loves his mommy!

When we put Jackson down near Andrew for a brothers shot it amused me how he decided to hold him in place ;) Andrew was 6-months-old when we shot these and he's now 8 months and walking...so Jackson knew he'd need to hold him down to keep him still! That Andrew is a mover and a shaker!

Mama and her first baby

Oh man. Fat babies are the BEST! ...and despite how contorted Andrew's arm chub looks, it didn't seem to bother him in the least (except when he got his arms stuck under his body as he army crawled along).

This boy can move!

He was really motivated by block towers and his desire to knock them over. ;)

Nom, nom, nom, nom. That's all I have to say here.

Cole & Jackson

Do these two little guys look like a ton of fun or what?

 

I love the blue and orange color scheme the mama of this family picked out! Living in the town I do, I almost never get to shoot orange, and I do like how it photographs. (Except burnt orange, that shade isn't flattering on anyone ;)

Handsome Mr Cole!

This is his ball catching face! Haha!

Jackson working his best side for the camera ;)

And then we finished the shoot with a little muddy creek exploration! : )
