Adorable little Ethan was 10 days old for his session. I met him on New Year’s Eve – a lovely day for a newborn session! He has the best head of hair I’ve ever seen on a baby, which makes the photographs all the more better! He was a delight – thanks for spending New Year’s Eve with me, little man! 🙂

Wow, what an amazing year 2011 was for me! I met so many amazing people and had a blast photographing everything from marriages to babies to kids and families. I sincerely thank each and every one of you who touched my life this year and helped me to grow my business. I’m excited for all the possibilities that 2012 has to offer, and I hope to see a lot of familiar faces.
Here’s a glimpse at my favorite photos from this year!!

Earlier this month I photographed these darling little twins – Connor and Owen – at just eight days old. They’re the tiniest little babies I’ve photographed. Owen was a teeny four pounds at the time of the session and Connor was just five. They’re absolutely precious and I’m so incredibly happy for their parents. These two are just a blessing from above. I absolutely adore their photos, and they’re made even more special because family members hand knitted several of the blankets we used!

Beautiful little Grace was just eleven days old for her session. I love her name and I love how nicely she fits into her family of four. She has an adoring big brother and two special parents.
This last one warms my heart and makes me smile — the family’s feet! 🙂

Last month I had the pleasure of meeting sweet little Joshua when he was just 10 days old. He was one of the models at the newborn workshop I attended in Durham with Keri Meyers. He couldn’t have been more perfect for us – he was our little holiday model and ended up with all of our cute Christmas set-ups. I loooove how they turned out!!
I’ve had a few other newborn sessions this past month that I’m behind on blogging. I’m hoping to get caught up on them soon!!

I have to share this image that my friend Kathy snapped of me last weekend. I had a twin newborn session and she was gracious enough to come along and be my extra set of hands — I didn’t want to be outnumbered by the babies! Here I am soothing the babies into a pose. And in case you’re wondering, my iPhone has a white noise app and was helping me get them to sleep!
Thanks Kathy! 🙂

I had the pleasure of meeting sweet little Cash when he was just nine days old. I was fortunate enough to attend a newborn workshop with the amazing Keri Meyers, and Cash was one of our little models. I learned a TON from Keri and I’m so excited to share the amazing photos I took that day! Keri is so full of knowledge when it comes to posing little newborns and I left the workshop with a lot of new tricks up my sleeve. I have a lot more photos to share from the workshop, but first, here is sweet baby Cash!

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of meeting sweet little Avery and her family at their gorgeous home. She has one of the most beautiful nurseries I’ve ever seen. We had a great time and Avery is just stunning!
This next photo of Avery and Mommy in the nursery was amongst my very favorites. I simply adore it in Black & White, but I also wanted to show the color version so you can all see how beautifully decorated the room is.
