Six Months and Growing

I'm back! Well, sort of. Wally (escorted by Daddy) came with me to Emmeline's six month photo session. I can't believe it has been over half a year since I photographed her birth! Six months is one of my absolute favorite ages -- they're sitting but not mobile, cuddly, and curious. Emmeline was no exception. She has these eyes -- deep, dark brown like her mama's -- beautiful creamy skin, and of course some serious chub that makes a person just want to SQUEEZE her all day long. I managed to restrain myself (most of the time) in order to get some fun photos at a GORGEOUS Marysville park. (I can't wait to go back in early November for her nine month photos. The trees at that park will be amazing!)

Poor Angel and Eric have had to wait a whole week for their sneak peak because my computer has been terrorizing me, so without further ado, here's Emmeline!

On Daddy's drum. If you remember this shot, you can see how much Emmeline has grown.
Love the hint of baby bum in this one.
Ahh, toes.
A quietly happy moment. See what I mean about those eyes?
Love from Daddy.
Squish kisses. I never get tired of these.
Baby in a basket.
Angel and Eric, what are you doing here? I didn't see this until I started proofing. I'm imagining a conversation along the "She's YOUR daughter" lines. Whatever it was, I love this shot! I couldn't have asked for a more fun first session back. Thanks for being flexible, Angel and Eric. I'm so glad this worked out! Enjoy!

Three Months Old

How can three months go by so quickly? Remember Emmeline's newborn photos? Well, Sunday we shot her three month pictures -- the first of four sessions that will follow Emmeline through her first year. I'm so excited to get to help Angel and Eric document their daughter's milestones. It's amazing to see babies change in that first year. If you have a new baby, or one on the way, consider signing up for a First Year package and receive four sessions at 20% off the session fees and 20% off all prints or digital images purchased from each session.

Emmeline has gone from an adorably plump newborn to a smiley, squishy three month old. I had forgotten how fun this age is -- everything revolves around seeing those smiles. Here are a few favorites from our session.

I love the red.

One of my favorites! Look at those cheeks, those lips, those eyes! (Sigh.)

Angel and Eric, it was a pleasure to spend the afternoon with you and Emmeline...again! Enjoy!

And a note to anyone out there considering a session -- you have until Friday to take advantage of session fees before they go up! Click here for details.
