Baby K's Infant Shoot

Hi Guys, if you have stopped by my blog I want to say thank you!  I really appreciate it!  I haven't really mentioned much about the blog formally lately. It is actually my old blog so I am missing some entries from the middle time frame of my business and went back to the "old" blog for reasons...that are well..probably boring so I won't go there :)

  I am still working out the kinks but I wanted to keep you all up to date.  I am working on getting better as a "blogger" but I really love it.  I love it because it helps me tell a story...ya'lls story :) and to me that is so important!

So without further adieu......
 I had the opportunity of stopping by the Buckner's house to take a few shots of Miss K recently.  Her Mom wanted to capture her lovely christening gown that she was recently dedicated in. :) 

 Look at that sweet smile!

 And those eyes!

Some might say this isn't in focus but I actually love the softness here. :)

 And here below is a side by side comparison of Miss K and her Momma...LOVE IT!

Thank you Lori for letting me capture such a special moment :) You baby girl is adorable!

Baby Caleb

You may remember a few months ago when I did a maternity session with Katie and Christian, well now they are proud to announce the arrival of their beautiful knew baby boy, Caleb!  What a great name huh?  (For those of you who don't know that is my husband's name.)  Anyways, back to this beautiful baby.  I first met baby Caleb when he was just over a week old.  He was so precious and so good for us!   Here are some of my favorites...

 We started out the session right!  Dad's already getting in there on the diapers...Good job Dad!!

Look at how cute this "little man" onesie is! 

I think this must be one of his favorite places...Momma's arms!

Dad's got that hang of this thing too!

Proud Mommy and Daddy.

Don't you just love baby cheeks?

Not a care in the world!

 Aren't babies miracles??!!

 

 

Great Grandpa and Great Grandma came to visit!

Grandpa and Grandma joined in on the fun too! 

I kept saying, "Look at all that hair!!"

God is good!  Congratulations Katie and Christian!

Mini Session - Baby Cody

Colt and Amy are long time friends of Caleb and I.  We go way back to the elementary years.  Now, Colt and Amy have recently added a 3rd little addition to their family - Cody. 

These were actually taken during a visit to our house..I had to grab them because it was a great moment and Daddy wasn't present for our mini-session.

Here are the other two little angels...they were so good while I was there.

 

 

He's already getting the hang of being a big brother.

 

 

And big sis knows how this works!

 

 

 Smile!

 

 

Colt and Amy have carried a neat tradition on in their family (A tradition carried on from Colt's parents).  All of the girls names start with an "A" like Mommy and all of the boys names start with a "C" like Daddy.  I think their children will appreciate this tradition when they get older.

 

 

Ok, this one and the next were oopsy's but I like them anyways...

Baby's always look so cute when they stick out their tongue!

See?

Everyone needs a good stretch now and then.

He was putting up with a lot from me!

I think this must be his favorite place!

I was definitely impressed with Amy's ability in taking on her new role as a mother of three (which I must say from experiences is NOT an easy task!) just two weeks into the "job" :).  I look forward to our second session with the Martin's again soon!
