There is nothing like a new baby all sweet and cuddly. Kynley was only 11 days old the day of her first photo shoot and such a doll to work with. What a fun job I have to meet wonderful families and their sweet new babies!
Looks like she already has daddy wrapped around her little finger!
I love this beautiful bunting her great grandma made for her!
She must too – look at that adorable little smile!
I’ve known Brian since he was a kid playing football with our son Chad so he almost feels like one of my kids. He now has a sweetheart of a wife, Laura and two beautiful children Hagen & Addison. I loved being able to spend some time with them recently and welcome baby Addison. Congratulations to a wonderful family! Feel free to leave them a comment on the blog.
Hagen is very proud to be a big brother!
Amazing what a bribe from dad to go to McDonald’s will do for a smile!
Addison was determined to stay awake and not miss a moment of her first photo shoot, but we did get a few sleepy baby shots. She is just precious!
Congratulations McAFee Family!
I had the pleasure of photographing two great families recently. The Wunderlich’s at their home near Hermann and The Bushong’s in Old Town St. Charles. Both families have two adorable little girls. The girls are all so sweet – I can’t stop smiling as I go through the photos from their sessions!
Grass in your toes is the funniest thing!
I’m a Little Teapot
I love sessions with dancers, and this session with Scott & Melissa was no exception! Scott was one of my students many years ago. He met his wife, Melissa while dancing on a cruise ship. They both now dance in Myrtle Beach. It was so much fun to hang out with them and their daughter Molly to get these shots.
What fun – jumping with mom & dad.
And rolling down the hill with dad.
Thanks Scott & Melissa for a great shoot!
Here is part 2 of John & Jackie’s awesome wedding! I’ll be posting a slideshow tomorrow to include some of the reception shots. I’ve been smiling (and laughing) all day looking at those!
So glad the rain held off for the outdoor ceremony – it was beautiful!
The children’s vows and watering the family tree were both such special touches!
John & Jackie’s wedding was beautiful! Every detail from the music, to the setting at Wine Country Gardens, to the special touches in the ceremony fit them perfectly. Here’s part one of their sneak peek. Part 2 and a slideshow coming soon!
The swan even posed for this one.
I always love newborn shoots and sweet baby Alaina was no exception! The session was even more special because she is the granddaughter of some great friends Greg & Angie. She was just precious, sleeping and posing like a little doll!
She even gave us a smile!
It was so much fun to be able to incorporate all the purple!
And her special blanket with her name on it!
Big Brother Justin is very proud of her!
What a cute nursery!
And I love the way her hair curls around the back of her head!
