one thing i love about repeat clients is being able to see the changes in the kids and families.  this sweetie wasn’t even sitting up last time i saw her – now she’s on the move!!  

these are the luckiest kids  -they have one of the coolest chicks i know as a mom.  it was so fun to spend time with my dear friend and her fabulous family!!   i hope we get to hang out again soon – and so does my three year old – who is in love with “miss thang” pictured below – who wouldn’t be, right?

this was my second session with this family – and i was so pleased they chose me to photograph the newest member.  he’s such a peanut and big sis is just as sweet as ever – look at those big brown eyes!!

Another one year birthday to celebrate and another cake-smashing!  This little guy really got into it – once he had a taste of the frosting that was it!!

This little one was so much fun!  She was so smiley and would stop what she was doing to look at the camera and smile – so cute!  She also had so much fun giving her big furry friend treats.

like i said in my previous post – a ton of blue-eyed babies lately.  also, lots of babies turning one this month – and many are doing the cake-smashing which is always fun to do.  i think me and the parents usually have more fun watching!!

this sweetie was smiling and laughing her entire session.  she knew exactly what to do and was totally hamming it up for the camera!!

if you’re in chicago – you know what i mean!!  although, it didn’t get me down today.  actually, it was a great day – spring has finally arrived!

playing catch up this week!  i’ll admit, i’ve been getting distracted lately and haven’t been updating the blog like i should!!

anyway, check out the blue eyes on this beauty!  there’s been a run on blue eyes lately – so many babies with these huge, saucer-like blue eyes.  love it!

enjoy the sneak peek mom and dad!

i was telling the parents of this sweet boy that i can’t remember ever seeing a newborn with so much blond hair!!  i know many women that pay a lot of money to get their hair like this (ok, i’m one of them!)

this little guy was such an angel (and only 9 days old!) – he slept nearly the entire time and let us pose him however we wanted!!  i think he really liked my bean bag with the heating pad – what’s not to like?

this little guy was so sweet – he fell asleep mid session so we were able to get some sleeping and awake shots. while he was awake he was so smiley – love that! mom and dad were smiley, too!

This was a great studio session from this past weekend – such a fun family! Mom and Dad were so cool and baby was just a dreamy little guy!
