I have been a bad mommy photographer and rarely take any session photos with my own baby anymore. I take weekly snapshot photos with my awesome pocket point and shoot camera (which unfortunately broke at the beach this last week!) but I was overdue for an actual session with my almost 16 month old boy! This session focused on putting Heath to work modeling the adorable, warm and cozy winter hat and scarf set from the incredible Puntebella store (on etsy – http://www.puntebella.etsy.com/) This is for her upcoming fall and winter line and Heath loved putting the hat on and running around with the scarf. He’ll look adorable this winter wearing this with either a brown corduroy coat or a navy raincoat, and this totally puts me in the mood for fall!

Check out Puntebella‘s site for more of her incredible items and check back for new fall and winter items coming soon!

This family and I first met over a year ago for their maternity portion of their bellies & babies package, and their session is still one of my favorites because of how sweet and excited they were to become parents, because we had some awesome rainbow sunflare going on, and because of the amazing vintage bridge location! Then (as if it could even get better) I photographed baby Daniel for his newborn session, which became one of my favorite newborn sessions to date because of how much of a perfect dream baby he was to photograph, and it was such gorgeous weather we were able to go outside and capture some outdoor newborn images which are still some of my favorites!

One year later this beautiful, adventurous, super smart and funny one year old walked (and I should say RAN! – this one year old is on the move!) around our studio location and checked out the trees, the leaves, the grass and the pebbles on the path. It was a perfect sunny day and Daniel is so hilarious – he really already has such a great sense of humor…I couldn’t have asked for more! I love watching my baby clients grow up in front of my camera and see how they change and become such beautiful little kids. Happy birthday Daniel!! Enjoy your sneak peek little man!

I mean seriously – look at this cute little face!!!!

Family kisses!

On the move!

He loved cuddling with mama…

But this expression is totally just like his daddy’s!

I wanted to share this absolutely beautiful newborn album from this Frederick, Maryland newborn session I did recently. This was a bellies & babies client so we did about half of the album in maternity images and half with the newborn images – so perfect to document this amazing time in their lives. This client wanted shabby chic and beautiful patterns and colors to compliment the stunning colors from her sessions, and I think it came together perfectly. She chose a gorgeous pale blue designed brocade cover and the whole thing was perfection. Enjoy the images below of this awesome album!

This is product share month around here because I have been packaging up fun orders like crazy! Below are some images of two different items – from organic bloom frames to some of my pretty packaging.

A few of my pretty boxes about to ship out to a client:

Here’s one of the Organic Bloom frames that I offer in white. LOVE!

And a close up:

Make sure to check back soon to see one of the prettiest albums I’ve ever seen!

I was soooooooo excited to put together a custom coffee table book for this gorgeous session because I knew exactly how I wanted it to look. We wanted fun and whimsical design elements to compliment the youthful and fresh images we captured, and we loved how it turned out. This gorgeous album is included in a collection, and includes 30+ of your favorite session images with a custom image cover. The album lays completely flat and is flush mounted, and so so so beautiful. Perfect for little hands to flip through now and to last until they’re grown and want to show it off to THEIR kids down the road. I love everything about this!

Here are just a few of the pages from this album – love!
