this winter day was oh so cold… our lips may have turned a shade of blue but these images were so worth it. i met Lauren a couple of years ago, she’s a rock star school counselor at my kids high school. her heart is so full of love for all the students she works with on a daily basis inside and outside of school. there was no doubt she was made to be a mother.

little miss Hadley was due in 3 weeks so we felt we had plenty of time. we chose this day, the only day that had no rain in weeks. lucky for us… huh? totally! luck was on our side for sure as sweet little Hadley came 3 days later… yes 3 days!

while shooting i told Lauren about another client of mine who went into labor pretty much during our shoot. i could tell her belly was dropping during our 2 hrs of shooting and at 1am i woke up to a picture of her beautiful baby. what? yes, that really did happen! cross my heart.

hope you love these photos as much as i do…

almost forgot to mention… these are edited with my new preset collection coming soon.

 

“WOW”…. what a FUN senior session. Jayda, along with her mom and grandma came to the Coast for her senior experience and ROCKED it! We had so much fun shooting, laughing and chasing the light. 

Who doesn’t just melt when you see a 2 year old in lumberjack clothing? Seriously, check out those suspenders! He’s ridiculously cute.

But don’t let that cute attire fool you, he was not going to let me catch that smirky smile easily. This is what happens when his mother is a photographer… bonus… my second shooter. Over the last 2 years it’s been a pleasure watching him grow, capturing his special moments and having so much fun with creative shot ideas. Now he’s turning “2”!
