Wow – Ms {C} is already a year old!!! Where has the time gone???  My little girl is growing up so fast.  For my clients that hear me talk about her all the time – this is my BABY!  I had all these grand ideas about what I wanted to do for her 1 year old session.  Well, she wanted NOTHING to do with it.  Every time I put a hat on her head, she pulled it off.  Every time I sat her down, she stood up and walked away.  I put a cake in front of her, just just poked at it and got up to leave.  She cracked me up!  Even though I didn’t get exactly what I wanted we still go some GREAT shots and they are all her.  Here are some photos from our session this weekend.  Isn’t she such a cutie pie….okay I may be a bit biased here.  Hehe.

Well, 2011 has come to an end.  Wow, it went by fast!  I have had the pleasure of photographing this little one as a newborn with my first session of the year, so it is only fitting that I end my year with her cake smash session!  She is such a doll and I am really going to miss seeing her throughout the next year.  As much as I love watching “MY” babies grow up – I really do miss them once they are out of the “Watch Me Grow” program.  Anyway, here is my last session of 2011 and one of my favorite little girls!

Miss {A} is growing up on me WAY too fast!!!  Her Mom was saying that it seems like they were just calling me to schedule her newborn photos – I agree.  Where does the time go?  I just LOVE my Watch Me Grow babies – it is so much fun to see them grow and change from visit to visit.  Miss {A} is now 6 months old and is sitting on her own and getting ready to crawl any day.  Watch out Mom and Dad – they get FAST really quick!!  Haha.  Anyway, here are a few photos from our recent session.  She was so much fun, smiling and laughing the entire time.  Such a joy to work with!!!

I was working on a different session this morning and realized I never blogged about this family.  Well, it was my last official Christmas session of the year and was a lot of fun even if we were battling some HARSH sunlight the whole time.  The {R} family makes me smile!   I just can’t help it.  The boys were cracking me up and I just adore their mom.  Thank {T} for spending part of our day with me!!

I just LOVE Ms {Z}.  I met this family when I did their Maternity photos and have looked forward to seeing {Z} every 3 months since she was born as one of my “Watch Me Grow” kiddos.  {Z} is now 6 months old – she sits well and is already crawling!!!  And as a special treat for me, we took some photos with big sis {J} this time as well!  Here is a Sneak Peek!

Ms {E} has got to be one of the cutest babies every!!  She is adorable!  She was all smiles through our whole session.  We were able to get a few pictures of the whole family and then spent some time inside capturing Ms {E}’s 3 month photos.  Here is her Sneak Peek – Isn’t she a doll!!

The {W} family is just amazing and Little {Z} is such a doll!!  I got to meet them when I did her newborn photos and I cannot believe how BIG she is getting.  She is such a cutie pie!  Here is a sneak peek from the family session we did a couple weeks ago.

I had the pleasure of meeting the {L} family a couple of weeks ago.  They are an adorable family and I can’t wait to spend more time with them in the Spring.  But, for now, here is their Sneak Peek!!

I feel like I say this a lot…but I LOVE my families and the {S} family is no exception.  Little Ms {M} is just adorable and {L} is a wonderful big brother!  Here are a sneak peek from our session.

I just LOVE this family.  We have been blessed to call them our friends for the past few years.  I just love watching their family grow!!  The boys are all getting so big.  With the newest addition of baby boy #4, the {P} family is definitely a ton of fun!  Here is the sneak peek from their recent session.
