Are ya’ll ready for Miss Lily’s 1 year photo shoot? It’s been quite the year documenting this little one. We started with a fun maternity session with Didi and Andrew, then a few weeks later Lily made her debut. At 6 months, we had a little fun in the studio. Lily was a real ham for her big 1 year session! Walking, smashing cake, looking for dogs…she was ready for anything! 

Happy birthday Lily! It’s been a real honor to photograph your first year and I’m excited to keep watching you grow!

Mary Kathryn | 2 Year Portraits | Samford University

May 1st, 2013

This little bit has been gracing the blog since she was 1 month old, so it’s so wonderful to welcome her back to celebrate her turning 2! I think we walked the entire Samford University campus, following MK’s navigation as fast as her legs would allow. As I looked through her shoot, I was really [...]

 

This little bit has been gracing the blog since she was 1 month old, so it’s so wonderful to welcome her back to celebrate her turning 2! I think we walked the entire Samford University campus, following MK’s navigation as fast as her legs would allow. As I looked through her shoot, I was really struck by the black and white images for some reason. Some of the in between moments make for the best portraits.

A Morning with the Platt’s | Vestavia Hills, AL Lifestyle Photography

March 7th, 2013

Last summer, I spent an afternoon with the oldest Platt children: Caleb, Joshua, and Mara Ruth. What you couldn’t see behind the scenes was that their mama was pregnant with their brother, Isaiah.

Last summer, I spent an afternoon with the oldest Platt children: Caleb, Joshua, and Mara Ruth. What you couldn’t see behind the scenes was that their mama was pregnant with their brother, Isaiah. I spent an eventful morning with the children at home; we celebrated Isaiah with a few portraits, mama lead their daily devotion, the boys played with legos, and Mara Ruth was all about her bee antennas and iPad game.

I absolutely love in home shoots. It’s such a unique way to look back as a parent (or child), at what life looked like with little ones running around your home. Eating breakfast, playing dress up, brushing tiny teeth; all such sweet glimpses into what life really looks like. Alright, let’s peek inside what mornings looks like for the Platt 4!

March Special | Baby’s First Year Plan

March 5th, 2013

One of the sweetest benefits of photographing baby’s first year is watching them grow before my eyes. From their mama’s belly and sleeping soundly at only days old, to being able to sit, crawl, and then walk; those important milestones deserve to be documented in a way that won’t be forgotten. For the month of [...]

 

One of the sweetest benefits of photographing baby’s first year is watching them grow before my eyes. From their mama’s belly and sleeping soundly at only days old, to being able to sit, crawl, and then walk; those important milestones deserve to be documented in a way that won’t be forgotten.

For the month of March, I’ll be discounting $200 off all Baby’s First Year Plans! One of the best things about this package is that you can be expecting your little one to arrive OR you can start your plan as late as 3 months old!

Be sure to like CBM on Facebook, follow me on Twitter, and Instagram for a peek at what’s happening now!

The Garner Family | Vincent, AL Family Photography

Photographing a 2 year old is an interesting experience. Any sort of concrete plan or poses go out the window. Independence is the name of the game for them, and being flexible is the name of the game for me. Charlie, in all his 2 year old glory, was Mr. Independent! Ideas were met with a firm [...]

Photographing a 2 year old is an interesting experience. Any sort of concrete plan or poses go out the window. Independence is the name of the game for them, and being flexible is the name of the game for me. Charlie, in all his 2 year old glory, was Mr. Independent! Ideas were met with a firm “No!”, so we worked for those sweet smiles and we got em!

The Garner family is so special to me and I’m always honored to photograph Charlie and beyond! Those beautiful outfits Charlie has on are the amazing work of his mothers. Be sure to check out her work here: Sweet Dreams Designs
