it’s what boys do

Miss Sarah — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 04:36:53 +0000

This little guy belongs to a couple of my good friends! I just love babies with a little chub!

…and beautiful blue eyes…

And here was one from Nate’s newborn session. I love to see how they change! I think he still looks a lot like his newborn photos.

I have always secretly wished I had a thumb sucker. SO cute!

And those perfect little lips…

I always love this classic pose.

…we were all cracking up as soon as we got his clothes off. *shrug* I think his parents were a bit embarrassed, but it’s what boys do!

Pure sweetness!

meet owen…12 days new.

Miss Sarah — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 05:59:15 +0000

This time of year is always a busy, busy time for new little arrivals. I was so glad to meet this little guy…and he was tiny, even at 12 days…so adorable and just the.perfect.model. Hardly fussed, slept through all my messing with him, and I mean, really….how can you resist that sweet little face? His parents were oooohing and ahhhing over him the whole session…and who could blame them? Certainly not me.

David & Liz…It was so wonderful to meet you guys and I’m honored to have captured this special time in your lives. Owen is absolutely PERFECT! Enjoy each and every moment…I know you guys will!!

I had to share this one because I just love when they pose themselves.

PRICELESS!!!!!!

A special hat that grandma made. So cute!

He was full of smiles. I love how he looks so tiny here!

Miss Stella recently stopped by to see me for the second session of her Bebe Plan. You might remember her sweet face from this previous post. Oh.my.gosh…isn’t she just the prettiest baby ever? And I mean that will all sincerity…such soft and pretty feminine features….already a stunner!

One from her newborn session…

And here she is now…

I just LOVE her look in this one….

This stylin’ fella needed some updated photos for an upcoming competition so we got together for a quick mini session. We headed out to brave the chilly weather for images with more of an urban look. Jack was a natural..and such a trooper to put up with all my shenanigans! Winter light is always so magical and the snow reflects the light just beautifully….it felt sooooooooooooo good to be shooting outside again!

Good Luck Jack!!

Our Valentine mini sessions were a success, and as always, all the kiddos were so fun and completely adorable decked out in their Valentine’s gear!

Have a great weekend!!

sneak peek

Miss Sarah — Mon, 25 Jan 2010 01:34:28 +0000

This little man was SO handsome and had such pretty features (yes…boys can be pretty!) He was a wonderful little model, so squishy and cuddly, and he wasn’t going to let anything interrupt his nap time during our session. Gotta love that!

Meet Andrew on day 8….

L-O-V-E his little mouth here!

Last week I traveled to Omaha for this little lady’s session. They had some great natural light in their home, so I left my light in the van and decided to work with it. Miss Hadley was just absolutely delicious and such a great little sleeper! I could munch on those cheeks all day long. And those little lips…to.die.for!

We also utilized the nice light in their master bedroom…

And one when she was awake…albeit just for a bit. Such a pretty girl.

I just adore this pairing of images…Miss Hadley with big sis Harper.

perfectly piper

Miss Sarah — Sun, 17 Jan 2010 05:12:09 +0000

This little babe was just heavenly! Miss Piper came to see me when she was just 5 days old and was the perfect little model. Sleepy and squishy…just the way I like ‘em…and as you can see she is beyond beautiful and obviously adored by her parents (okay, okay, I loved her too!). I think she just might have daddy wrapped around that itty bitty teeny weeny finger already!

Sharing lots from this session because I couldn’t just pick a few!

This next one is my new favorite image ever!!

valentine’s day mini sessions!

Miss Sarah — Tue, 12 Jan 2010 23:51:17 +0000

Hi everyone! I am so excited to introduce my first ever in-studio mini sessions….a special just in time for Valentine’s Day! I have had my studio for nearly a year, and while I do the bulk of my sessions outdoors I have always thought it would be fun to offer something a little different (and a change of pace is always nice too!) so I will be offering a few in-studio mini events over the next couple months.

These mini sessions will be abbreviated sessions with 8-10 images posted for you to view in an online gallery. The images will be fresh and fun (like always ) and capture all of your child’s wonderful expressions. Choose from custom designed 4×5 Valentine Cards OR a 5×10 “LOVE” mini desktop collage. I have done custom cards for my girls the last 3 years and they are always a hit…and super fun for the kids to have cards with THEIR own images on them! The collages are perfect for those of you who might not be handing out cards or want something to brighten up your desk space at work…they are also the P-E-R-F-E-C-T thing to surprise dad (or mom!…HINT HINT) with on Valentine’s Day!!

Sessions will be offered one day only….Sunday, January 24th! Only 10 SESSIONS are available so contact me to reserve your session right away! Shoot me an email using the “contact” button above or call 486-9934.

A few more details:

- The session fee covers one child. Siblings will incur a separate session fee and time slot.
- Sessions will be limited to 20 minutes.
- Due to the nature of the mini-sessions, babies must be able to sit independently without toppling over.
- Images from the session will be posted within a couple days. Orders will be due Friday January 29th, and will be ready to pick up the week of February 8th.
- A variety of Valentine props will be available for you to choose from.

I recently had a couple little models come in to show you all just how ridiculously A-DOR-ABLE and FUN the images are….here’s Miss Katie and her “LOVE” collage…

She’s a feisty one if you couldn’t tell!

Heheheheee! I *love* this one!

And next up….Noah….the ‘lil Heartbreaker! *melts*

Too bad ladies…..this guy only has eyes for his mama!

*faints from the cuteness*

Geesh….hope everyone is surviving this brutal winter (at least everyone here in the midwest)? When did we move to Canada…eh? I’d like the mild Nebraska winters back please. Thankyouverymuch. I grew up in Minnesota, so I’m very used to the snow (and actually enjoy it quite a bit)…but this is just a little much…dontcha think? I knew you would agree.

Also, stay tuned for some fun announcements! Now that it’s a bit too chilly to head outdoors, I have a few fun things in the works for studio sessions!! More on that next week!

Anywhoo….this little lady was a feisty one…but I ended up winning in the end. So sweet and so perfect….perfectly adorable!

Meet Miss Hudson….

Miss Sarah — Mon, 21 Dec 2009 20:39:01 +0000

Talk about the perfect Christmas gift…a new little bundle! This little guy was such a sweetheart!

We started off the session with a few of the new big sis looking festive!

…and together…

Meet Sam….

He was wide awake for a few minutes before a little snack….so sweet!

fab four.

Miss Sarah — Fri, 18 Dec 2009 23:24:22 +0000

I always love working with this family….I mean…they are GORGEOUS….and always SO easy to photograph. We were able to get together for their session last month and it was no exception. Love, LOVE, them all!

I mean seriously…it does not get much better than this. The brown eyes….and fauxhawk….*melts to pieces*

…and…since I know the holiday cards have been sent out….:)…
