I want to wish everyone a Happy New Year and all the best in 2012!

Thank you to all of my clients for making 2011 such an awesome year! I truly appreciate your business and loved every minute photographing your bellies and babies! I'm so blessed and lucky to be able to do what I love full time!

I look forward to new and exciting things coming for 2012 and plenty more babies to photograph!

One photo from each of this year's shoots (minus the 2 babies that waited to arrive until the very end of the year - so my last baby photographed this year got 2 photos in the collage!)

Is there anything more adorable than this little one?

She came to my studio this week with her (very patient) parents for what ended up being a bit longer of a photo shoot than expected! She was just so awake and alert. Even right after falling asleep she was soon wide awake again when I tried to move her!

We still ended up with some incredibly cute shots though! Even the most awake babies need to sleep eventually!

How exciting to be expecting a little one on Christmas Day!

This beautiful Mommy-to-be came over for her maternity session and braved the chilly winter air for some stunning outdoor photos! After warming up a bit we ventured into the studio and got some gorgeous photos that incorporated some holiday props!

I'm so excited to meet your new little one soon!

It feels like just yesterday I was posing this little guy as a newborn during his newborn photo session!

A customer coming back for another photo session is such a compliment for a photographer and certainly very appreciated! Not to mention that I just love seeing the adorable babies I've photographed as newborns growing up!

This little man's photo session included a variety of photos to capture him at 8 months of age as well as some Holiday themed photos!

He was a challenge to photograph only because he might be the busiest little guy I've seen at this age and was constantly on the move! However, the smiles were plentiful. He was such a little ham laughing away as him Mom and Dad sung songs and did everything possible to bring out the smiles! :)

It was such a pleasure working with you guys again! Thank you!

This little guy is just way too adorable! He is so tiny and cute and I was so in love with his fluffy hair that I couldn't resist giving him a little baby mohawk for a few pictures!

I think it's time I start spreading some holiday cheer! I'll start with a Christmas themed picture!
