Birthday Girl/Asheville Birthday Photographer

I did this sweet girl’s newborn pictures last year and her momma contacted me recently about doing birthday pictures, not knowing I was on maternity leave.  I just couldn’t turn down a session with this amazingly kind family!  They went through a lot with their baby girl and when I met them last year, I was blown away by how nice they were, so genuine and sweet!  I loved seeing them again today and getting to see this girl.  She’s so beautiful and maybe it’s my hormones, but I almost cried when they left.  I hope to see them again down the road!!  Here’s just one quick picture from today because I’ve got a hot date.  😉  It’s our 6th year anniversary!  More to come this week!  Thank you guys again!!

Big Brother/Asheville Newborn Photographer

This morning River kept kissing Piper on her head while I was trying to get him dressed.  It was so sweet!  I told him that I wished that I had my camera and he said, “Take my picture?  In your studio?”  Why yes!  So I took him and Piper to my studio but then he got all shy and didn’t want to kiss her anymore, not even for M&M’s!  Oh well.  These are just as cute.  Mya is up next.

Time Flies/Asheville Baby and Family Photographer

This evening I did my second to last session before maternity leave.  I’m so happy that it was with this family!  I hadn’t seen their sweet baby girl since she was a newborn:  here and here.  She was still just as easy as she was 8 months ago.  We did their session at the Biltmore House, a place that I have been dying to do a session at.  And it was great because we were pretty much the only people around!  I had such a great evening with you guys.  I’m looking forward to seeing you guys again down the road!

Love her little fish face!  hehe

Happy 2nd Birthday River!/Asheville Child Photographer

I can’t believe that my baby bear is turning 2 this week.  I feel like I just did his one year pictures.  Time went by way too quickly.  I love this little man more than I ever could have imagined.  I still can’t believe that I was so scared and worried about having a boy.  I love having a boy.  I love how he loves trains and dump trucks, and bull dozers.  I love watching him climb and jump and rough house.  And as much of a boy as he is, he is still the sweetest, most cuddly child on the planet.  I’ve never met a sweeter child, ever.  I love you so very much my little boy.  I sure hope that the next year goes a little more slowly.  🙁

I almost had to postpone these pictures.  Being the mom of the year that I am, I forgot to put sunscreen on him yesterday while we were out in the sun for the whole morning.  I guess spring is here and I need to start remembering.  On top of that, the balloons that I wanted to get from the party store couldn’t be gotten today.  The party store isn’t open on Sundays.  Boo!  But the weather was so perfect today, finally warm, so we had to take advantage of it!  I decided to do his pictures on the same bridge where I did his one year pictures.  I may do this every year, just for fun.  🙂
