  • Olivia :: Newborn

    Olivia’s mom, Kalee will always be special to me! She is now on Baby #2 and ‘Grow With Me’ round #2! She is the one who called me over a year ago and told me I should start up a Growing Baby package! Well I took her advice and I can honestly say it’s been such a blessing to get to photograph so many beautiful children throughout their first year! It has changed my business for the better.

    I’ve enjoyed getting to know this group and it’s been a treat to watch their family expand! I had so much fun photographing Olivia, she has the chunkiest little cheeks! I could have eatin’ her up! I’ve never photographed a baby who smiled that much, I swear there was a good 5 minutes were she just kept doing it over and over again. In photographers land- it was perfect and I was in hogs heaven snapping away! Looking forward to watching Olivia grow up over the next year, we are going to have a BLAST! ;)

     

  • Madison :: Newborn

    I photographed little Miss Madi on Wednesday! She is cute as can be, I love her dark brown hair :) She is a new member of the “Grow With Me” club and I am so happy to have her aboard! She is the sister of Mason and cousins with Beau & Adele, you may remember their sessions from not too long ago? It is definitely alot of fun to get to work with so many great people all in my neighborhood. It truly is an honor to photograph their kids.

    Here are some favorites of Madi!

    She could quite possibly be playing air guitar?Big brother Mason giving Sissy a kiss!Love this one!

  • Lainey :: Newborn

    I photographed Lainey’s newborn session this past Thursday. She was soo incredibly good for me, she slept the whole time! I really don’t even remember her crying at all. Her brothers Hunter & Quinn were the most lovey, affectionate big brothers to Lainey. I couldn’t have asked for a better group of siblings to photograph. I am so excited that Lainey’s mom, Dianna has signed her up for the ‘Grow With Me’ Package!! Really looking forward to watching her change over the upcoming year.

    I hope you enjoy my favorites from our shoot. She was sweet at a button! Here is Lainey girl:

  • Tripp :: Newborn

    My friends Larry and Leslie welcomed their little bundle of joy into the world on April Fools Day! Knowing both of them, when I read the post on facebook that their baby had arrived, I really thought they were joking ;) I had a great time photographing Tripp last week, he totally worked the camera! His Dad Larry went to High School with my husband Randy, so we’ve all been friends for a long time! I still think it’s crazy how we’re all grown up now. I can tell you that seeing Tripp last week really made me happy, there is just something about photographing newborns! When you see your friends and how they are adjusting to their first born- the world just seems brighter. Newborns are so innocent and sweet, how can you not just want to hold them all day long. His mom Leslie is good friends with my friend Bridget, and I just took Bridget and Ryan’s little girl Agnes Mae’s newborn photos last month. So this is Agnes Mae’s boyfriend and his name is Tripp ;) HAHA!

    So here he is…. the little cutie pie!

  • Adele Phae :: Newborn

    I had the pleasure of photographing my childhood friends little girl recently! Ali, Steve and Big Brother Beau welcomed Miss Adele to this big ole’ world just a couple of weeks ago! I think she looks so much like Beau when he was a baby, something about those eyes and lips! Even though I don’t get to see my BFF Ali that much, nothing has changed. I can go months without chatting with her and the next time I run into her; it’s the same old friendship we had way back when. We still goof off and make each other laugh. Her kids are a direct reflection of her sweet and bubbly personality. She always has a smile on her face! I could go on for days about how much her friendship means to me and how far we go back, but it might take me a while. haha!

    So here is the new addition to the Curtis family…. Adele Phae :)
