The Walters Family | Birmingham Family Photography

December 30th, 2011

Seriously, what could I possibly say with those big, blue eyes looking at you below?! Greta was a dream to photograph. That hair, skin, eyes, smile…that adorable name! It’s obvious, she won me over completely. We had a wonderful day in the Walters’ family backyard and I think the session reflects that. The Walters are [...]

Seriously, what could I possibly say with those big, blue eyes looking at you below?! Greta was a dream to photograph. That hair, skin, eyes, smile…that adorable name! It’s obvious, she won me over completely. We had a wonderful day in the Walters’ family backyard and I think the session reflects that. The Walters are such a fun and outgoing family. What a treat they were!

Hannah | Birmingham Newborn Photography

December 28th, 2011

One of the things I love most about newborn sessions are that they are at the family home. I get a peek at the nursery details, get to know the family even more & of course get shots that would only happen in their home.  Another favorite detail was that Hannah’s gender was a surprise!

One of the things I love most about newborn sessions are that they are at the family home. I get a peek at the nursery details, get to know the family even more & of course get shots that would only happen in their home.  Another favorite detail was that Hannah’s gender was a surprise! I love that!  Jake was such a sweet older brother to newborn sister Hannah. Jake thought it quite appropriate (and I couldn’t agree more) that this session needed more red cowboy boots.

Congratulations to this sweet family! I know you’re here to see the pictures, so let’s get down to it!

Before taking a break to celebrate Christmas with the family, I wanted to share this wonderful shoot with Emma. I first photographed Emma for her newborn session, here.  The 6 months flew by and I was so excited to see her smiling & sitting up! We had a wonderful time in the studio & I think Emma really loved being the center of attention.

We’ve got 2 more sessions to go in Emma’s 1st Year Plan & I know that she’ll bring the cute!

Welcome, Ellie

December 15th, 2011

That hair! I just can’t get enough of it. I don’t think I’ve ever spent more time combing a newborns hair! When I met Ellie’s mom, we were not surprised to find out that our husbands know each other from their frequented cigar shop. Ah, men and their cigars. Ellie is technically the first born, [...]

That hair! I just can’t get enough of it. I don’t think I’ve ever spent more time combing a newborns hair! When I met Ellie’s mom, we were not surprised to find out that our husbands know each other from their frequented cigar shop. Ah, men and their cigars.

Ellie is technically the first born, but does this girl have a protective older sister! Baylor was there every step of the way; watching, barking, licking, sniffing. Most likely wondering, what is this new little thing that has invaded my space?

Welcome, Ellie! So excited for this upcoming year!

For frequent readers of the blog, you’ll certainly recognize Mary Kathryn. She’s been featured twice this year, first for newborns and then for 3 months.

For frequent readers of the blog, you’ll certainly recognize Mary Kathryn. She’s been featured twice this year, first for newborns and then for 3 months. MK had a wonderful time showing off her new skill of sitting up and also eating leaves! Those leaves are just too tempting!

We spent some time at Oak Mountain State Park right before all the leaves decided to fall. The timing was perfect. We’ll be catching up with Mary Kathryn in February for her 9 month session. That first year is flying by!

Welcome, Sidney

Sidney made quite the dramatic arrival. Not only did she decide to come weeks early, she decided Halloween night was the perfect day to make her entrance. Certainly a girl after my own heart!

Sidney made quite the dramatic arrival. Not only did she decide to come weeks early, she decided Halloween night was the perfect day to make her entrance. Certainly a girl after my own heart!

Besides her squishy newborn features, what I loved most about this session was her nursery. Becky & Lara wanted something that wasn’t over the top and that would grow up well as Sidney gets older. So, the literary route seemed the perfect choice. The Wizard of Oz, To Kill a Mockingbird, Alice in Wonderland, The Giving Tree….the list goes on. The classics are represented well.

Sidney is a CBM baby plan and I’m thrilled to be documenting this special first year!

The Donohue Family | Birmingham Family Photography

December 5th, 2011

I’m just gonna dive right in and tell you how cute I think Tobe is, especially in that reindeer hat! I met the Donohue family on a Fall afternoon at Vulcan Park. Tobe had a cheering section throughout the whole session as BOTH sets of grandparents were there to watch. What a lucky little boy! [...]
