Baby Session // Garrett

Meet Garrett.

While in Utah, I had to get my baby-fix.  And nothing fits the bill more than little nephews. (In this case, Sharlyn’s.)  At a few weeks old, Garrett was wide-awake and unwilling to miss anything.  But he was also one of the calmest babies I have ever met.  The whole session, he just hung out, waiting for me, his mom, his auntie, or his older sister to entertain him.  (I’d like to think that we succeeded at that task.)

With a small army of women waiting on his every need, we were ready to start the session.

Cute baby?  Check.

Gorgeous window light?  Check.

Nice warm room, perfect for near-naked babies?  Check!

I loved his hair.  LOVED.  I wish mine would do this.

Okay, maybe he got a little bit sleepy toward the end…

Thank you, Christiansen Family, for inviting me into your home, letting me hang out with you all afternoon, and for feeding me wonderful Mexican food.  Yum!  It definitely was a big part of The Best Roadtrip Ever!

On a quick trip to Utah in July, I got a chance to catch up with my brother and his kids… holy cow!  They grow so fast!  This here is little Carson… the laughingest, happiest, drooliest, and arguably the cutest baby I’ve ever met.

You may remember Brittany and Sydney from a while back… a beautiful mother & daughter of whom I managed to get a few frames in a mini-session.  Her husband, Jason, loved the images, but was super bummed not to be in any of them with his two favorite girls.  So they scheduled a session with me  to get some photographs with their WHOLE family for their home.

Brittany and Jason brought a friend to watch Sydney so we could get a few of just the two of them…

Brinn & Family… One year later!

April 29, 2009 Posted in baby, family, kids 3 comments

Some of you may remember little Brinn from her newborn session. Being that she was born three weeks early, she was so tiny – small enough to fit into one of Dad’s baseball caps. Fast forward a year and you will find one of the happiest little girls ever to grace this earth. She loves to explore the world around her and she has one of the biggest, most infectious grins I’ve ever seen. On the morning of Brinn’s birthday, we headed over to Old Town, Temecula to commemorate her special day.

Brinn has some of the longest lashes I’ve ever seen! And those baby blues are a heartstopper for sure!

For Brinn’s birthday, her parents went all out. Mom even planned this awesome Candy Bar with all kinds of neat treats for the guests. For the shoot, they presented Brinn with the most perfect lollipop I’ve ever seen. However, it didn’t stay perfect for long!

And, last but definitely not least, one of the whole family…

Congratulations on one whole year of being a family! Stay tuned for a post about Brinn’s party… it was awesome!

And new baby makes five!

February 24, 2009 Posted in baby, family, kids, lifestyle, personal 3 comments

My recent trip to Utah was a last-minute decision, but one that I was so happy about it working out. I got to see my (not so little anymore) brother Jared and his sweet, sweet family, including my newest nephew, Carson. I was thrilled to be there for Carson’s blessing, but being able to spend some time with my family made it even more special. Jared’s wife, Tanya, gets mad props for her fantastic baking skills and keeping my tummy stuffed with cookies. We went sledding, we watched movies, and we talked and laughed way past my regular bedtime. Thanks for being such wonderful hosts!

While I didn’t take too many pictures during the weekend, I made it a point to get a few of little Carson… and by a few I mean that I had about a half hour as I had mistaken my departure time and the relaxing afternoon I had planned turned into a very frantic hour or so. Usually newborn sessions are quiet and take as long as Baby needs to settle down and fall asleep. This time we had all the kids in the room playing, about six adults and a very wide awake newborn. It made for an unconventional session, but I think it fits my brothers’ family more than the traditional way.

As the resident big sister, Caitlin loves to snuggle with her new little brother…

This last one is special in that now all three of their children have been photographed in this blessing outfit with this handmade blanket. They already had a frame for this shot…

Thank you so much for letting me come and hang out with you guys! I can’t wait to see you all again this summer! :)
