Baby Sam is ONE!

I got to hang out with this lovely crew in their beautiful neighborhood around Lake Harriet. For the second year in a row! Same babies, same spot, but a trip around the sun later. You can go here to see how tiny Elle and Sam were last year.

Elle is so full of energy, spunk and life. You can see it in her mischievous smile. I know she’ll be doing big things and going places - literally and figuratively! Sam was just a little nugget a year ago. Now he has a full set of curly blonde hair and sports the best toothy smile!

These images are reflection of why I love capturing family portraits, for the days are long but the years are too dang short!!

Meet Baby Maude!

How sweet is Maude and her ocean-colored blue eyes! Her mom and dad call her by Mimi and I think that's about the cutest thing. We had a blast having the Rose Garden all to ourselves and just loving on Mimi girl.

Betty and Steve, you have the most darling baby girl! Thank you for having me capture this precious milestone of Mimi being 6 months!

Psst! leave this lovely family a note here and if they get 10+ comments, they will get a special snail nail from me with a couple of my favorite images!

Mellum Family - Introducing Sam!

Emily and Nick welcomed baby boy Sam into their lives and are now the proud parents of two little ones. Doesn't Emily have the most radiant new momma glow and smile? It was so sweet to watch Elle give her baby brother Sam so much love throughout the session. With those gentle forehead kisses, she already has this new big sister thing down!

Psst! Leave this family some love here, if they get 10+ comments on this blog post, they will receive a complimentary 8×10″ print of their favorite image!
