play time with {avery}
Avery is three and LOVES to pretend and play. She was more interested in having me there to play along with her dolls than to photograph her, but this made for some genuine expressions and captured moments of Avery being her creative little self. Her brother Liam is quite the character and joined in the fun too!
Photographing children constantly reminds me of the wonder, exploration, and unlimited creativity we all had ourselves as children. {s.j}Labels: children

{emerson} teeny tiny
Take a look at this sweet little bundle of innocence!! Isn't she beautiful!? Emerson was just 7 days old when we did this photo session. I was hoping for some sleeping photos, but she decided she wanted to stay awake for the whole thing so she woudln't miss out! So, we went with it. Don't let this precious yawn fool you -- she's not sleepy, yet!
Eventually, Emerson gave in to those heavy eyelids and fell peacefully asleep so I was able to capture some more shots I had in mind. Sometimes you just need that perfectly curled up newborn pose!! These next few are my favorite. 
A big thank you to Emerson's parents Eric & Melissa for having me photograph their beautiful family and amazing little bundle of joy!! {s.j}Labels: children

leo {brand new}
This tiny little ten-day-old peanut is Leo -- isn't he just PRECIOUS!? I don't recall the last time I SAW a baby this 'brand new', let alone have the opportunity to photograph them, so it was just a treat. Special thanks to Leo's parents Luke & Angela for letting me share these photos with you, and congratulations on your beautiful new bundle of joy! {s.j}

Meet Austin! I photographed his parent's wedding almost 3 years ago, and was SO EXCITED when they called to have me photograph their beautiful bundle of joy! He is such a little sweetheart, and such a great little model to photograph. I can't get enough of his baby blues!! {s.j}
