Here's what I mean-sister is 6+ years older than baby brother and I'm starting to think that this is the perfect gap in ages (at least for photography). Big sis did it all--made him laugh, posed with him, posed on her own and can you tell that the baby boy was feeling under the weather? Me either! Loved this pair and loved how mom prepared for the shoot--with clothing and hair and location all thought out.
Because he's got two older brothers who are gonna keep him BUSY. Thankfully, mom is highly energetic and super easygoing. :) And baby #3 is a dream--he just slept and slept and slept. We moved him from bean bag to basket to sling (the trendy sling is the Serene Sling, btw) and he just kept on sleeping. And thank you to my good friend, mom of this adorable girl, for the referral-did I mention that I love my friends? (If you follow my blog, it's all over the place).
Oh-this little boy is going to be a heartbreaker because not only is he cute, he's got two older sisters to make sure he has a leg up on understanding women. Mom is amazing--she's got 3 kids under the age of 5 and is still smiling. :)
I love it when the kids are playful--it allows me to capture them in their natural element and meeting this pair at the park was perfect! I've got lots of catching up to do so here are just two to whet your eyes.
Because he just did not stop smiling. And they weren't the quick, lip quiver kind of smile--he just kept smiling BIG. I think it's because he was born into this world to the nicest people ever. This couple was referred to me by one of my clients and I almost turned them down because they live outside my travel radius. But mom was so sweet and persistent, that I couldn't refuse. Totally my gain. :)
When mom booked this session with me, we were trying to decide whether to meet at a park or at her home. We finally decided to have the shoot at her home because she was afraid that this little one year old would be shy. But look what we got instead--a happy, smiley baby all the way through. The first image was pretty much the first image out of my camera. I must have a pleasant demeanor--or there was food in my teeth. Whatever works. :)
This baby boy can sport it all. I love the colorful Korean outfits that babies wear for their one year party! It's quite the effort to get into (see 3 adults below dressing one child), but SO worth it! I would have helped but as you can see-there was no room for me, so I just snapped away. And it's always an honor to shoot my friends' child! Happy Birthday I!
I love all my clients, but I have to give this family a special heart for providing my business a steady flow of shoots through gift certificates, extended family shoots, and referrals. Plus, the kids are adorable! Just so easy to please. And I had to show Big Sister breaking out the chicken dance. Every time I see this photo, the tune gets stuck in my head.
Until Mom and Dad snuck off to smooch. :) It's exactly as you see it--we were busy taking pictures of this little man and then decided that Mom and Dad needed some pics together so we put the poor guy inside. I think he was stunned by the banishing. But he perked up quickly when it was his turn again.
This baby boy is naturally beautiful! Mom's a fantastic make up artist (check her out at www.traceyyuen.com) and specializes in wedding makeup. But she did not need any brushes to make this beautiful baby. Here are a few favorites from our session. And I have to give them special props for keeping baby's nose squeaky clean-no photoshopping out boogies. In fact, their home was just as immaculate.
Being the fifth of five kids, I'm gonna bet that this little guy grows up quick. All his siblings (including him) are ADORABLE! His older sister was actually one of my very first clients. Thanks for inviting me again to your home to meet your newest addition!
And I just couldn't resist showing this one. Funny lil' guy!
Our very dear friends welcomed a new addition in January and I got to be the lucky photographer to document their journey. This easygoing couple will certainly give their new baby a wonderful home. We also sadly bid farewell to their beloved dog, Kody. Thankfully, Kody was able to meet the baby although I did not make it in time to capture it. Baby is one month old in these pictures and slept peacefully for his first photo shoot.
It's a good thing that I don't make a living out of writing because I am running low on creative titles.
Funny story about this shoot--or rather, prior to the shoot. I went to the wrong house, and the guy who answered the door actually let me in. I stayed for about 5 minutes, chit chatting with the guy when his mom finally showed up and set us all straight. I don't know how I could mistake a high school BOY for a dad. Do I have no concept of age??
Thank goodness it was the wrong house because my client's home was VERY well lit and how COOL is the calendar marking their son's birthday??
Enjoy mom. I'm thinking you need this sneak preview right now. :)
