Natural light, on-location photographer in Southeastern CT
Hannah. Complete with Princess Tiana shirt and Little Mermaid socks…staples in our house. She wanted to hold the canvas of her so I could take a photo of it. (You would think a photographer’s child would know better than CHEESE, wouldn’t you? Ahhh…4 year olds!)
I truly love this canvas of her and it makes me so happy every time I walk by it in my house. (It is a 16×20 for those keeping track and thinking about going BIG!)
So this weekend I pulled out my camera to get a quick shot of Hannah for her school valentines. Hannah was fairly cooperative and Leah was sleeping. Once Leah woke up, she also wanted to participate but really only on her own terms…which is not having to look at the camera or do what I say. I decided to bust out the valentine suckers and attempt a few shots together. They are by no means perfect – but I love them (the photos AND the girls).
Hannah in her heart tee and a pink petti. And showing off her cute new haircut!
Our little ragamuffin straight from her nap. Finally some eye contact! Check out her poor lip. We aren’t entirely sure what she does at night but her skin is a disaster. The doctor said she probably sucks on it while she is sleeping. If anyone has any suggestions, I would be happy to hear them. I almost laughed out loud when the doctor suggested a band-aid at night. That wouldn’t even last two seconds!
Sisters
I first met Megan a year ago while doing her 1 month photos. Then I got another chance to photograph her when she turned 4 months old. Now she is ONE! Time flies and I can’t believe she is running around already (and boy, does she go – FAST!)
We did a series of photos in her room and Megan played in her crib as the sunshine streamed in. I love them and it totally makes me want to capture Leah in her crib before she outgrows it or more than likely climbs out of it.
Michael also got in on the fun. He was quite easy to bribe with some chocolate. We also had fun jumping on the bed and reading dinosaur books.
I love this shot of the two of them. Look at those beautiful eyes.
We also had a blast with a birthday cupcake smash! Stay tuned for some frosting filled photos!
We first met baby Sam here during a stunning maternity session with his mom. Well, the wait is over and little Sam is here!!! He was very alert and didn’t want to sleep at all. He was also very strong – trying to lift up his head. Welcome Sam and congrats to the whole family!
This gorgeous blanket was made by a friend of the family.
The new family of four
Gotta love baby toes in the sunlight!
Hanging with daddy
The proud big sister! About thrity seconds before this photo, Sam was crying and we weren’t sure he was going to cooperate for the sibling shot. Then he must have realized he was with his big sister and he calmed right down.
All their dad wanted for Christmas was a photo of all of his kids together. So while the older daughters were in town for Christmas, we took that opportunity to photograph the family. There were a few hiccups along the way but hopefully everyone had fun! Here is a quick sneak peek of the 5 siblings.
This is Harper…isn’t she adorable?!?
I am sure Tripp is going to be a heartbreaker!
