Welcome Baby H! Lakeland Family Photographer

One of my favorite things is to watch good friends as their families grow. These two parents are dear friends of ours. The dad, Anson, is practically brothers with my husband. They've been through thick and thin together. Tom (my husband) and I were so excited when Anson and Brooke found each other. And now they have sweet Baby H., who will most definitely be good friends with our daughter. These pictures are only a sampling of how much they adore their new addition. I can't wait to see their love continue to grow and Baby H. continues to melt all of our hearts.

Baby E - Bundle of Love - Tampa Newborn Photographer

I love seeing new parents with their little bundles of love. How careful they are. How loving and sweet. It takes me back to those first moments with my little one. So sweet to watch. So wonderful to reminisce.

Meet Baby E. Those little hands. Little feet. Sweet face. This little guy was soooo much fun to meet. He did not want to sleep for his first photo session, but eventually he gave in to all of his mom's and my persistent efforts to make him comfy! I'm sure he slept for the rest of the day ... and honestly he deserved it. Being this cute is a LOT of work :)

A Moment. Baby J's 3-Month Session. Tampa Baby Photographer

Sometimes when I'm photographing, especially little kiddos, I have what I call a "moment." It's a special shot or a second when my camera is taking a photo, but so is my memory (and for those of you mushes, my heart too). It's a moment where everything stands still ... where my heart melts a little bit ... where I think to myself "this is why I do this." Every photographer experiences it, but I don't know if they cherish it as much as I do?

When I was taking Baby J.'s 3-month photos, I had a "moment."

Words cannot explain how much I love this photo. I'm not tooting my own horn. This has nothing to do with me or my camera. This is all about Baby J. This picture, that look, makes me want another baby. It makes me miss when my baby was this little and quiet. It makes me cry. And it makes me appreciate every sweet, special second that I've had with my own little bean.

Photography means a lot to me, and "moments" like these are what it's all about. So, what about the rest of Baby J.'s shoot? You got it.

Some of you may remember Baby J. from his newborn shoot. This little one has grown so much in three months, it's amazing. Take a look:

 

 

 

And just because he's so irresistible,  I had to share some fun photos of Little L. (Baby J.'s big brother).

 

 

All I have left to say is that this family is very blessed. Two great parents and two super awesome kids. I can't wait to see how their family has grown in three more months!

Baby C is Here! - Tampa Newborn Photographer

Meet Baby C.

Baby C. is a lucky little girl because she was welcomed into the world by two very awesome parents.

There is no doubt in my mind that Baby C. will grow up to be a sweet and funny little girl. Her parents are smart and humorous, patient and loving. I am so excited to see her grow and learn how to become as amazing as her parents are. Best wishes to Sophia and Josh as they journey through the wonderfully wacky world of parenthood. Your baby girl is simply beautiful - nice work!
