I’m 1!/Asheville Baby Photographer

I haven’t done a cake smash in a while and was really excited about this one.  I’ve known this baby girl since she was in her momma’s tummy!  And now here she is one year old.  I loved doing this session because I love this age and think that cake smashes are so much fun!  This little girl was a huge fan of the cake and kept saying, “Mmmmmm.”  😉 But when she was done, she was DONE!  She wanted that icing off of her right then.  lol  Thank you guys for letting me do pictures for you again.  By the way, this momma is a cast member of many of the shows at the Flat Rock Playhouse and I hear she’s pretty darn talented.  If you’re feeling rather generous this holiday season, they are trying to raise money to keep the theater around.  Check out their link where you can donate: http://www.flatrockplayhouse.org/supportfrp/

This was after her much needed bath.  😉  I felt like a fool after I took this picture because her mom was singing to her and swaying with her and I just started crying!  Such a really precious moment and it tugged at my heart strings.  I blame all things on hormones right now, not the fact that I’m a sensitive Pisces.  😉

Happy Half/Asheville Child Photographer

Mya just turned 4 1/2.  I wasn’t going to do pictures this time around because we just did some at the beach, but one day out of the blue when I told her that she would be 4 1/2 soon, she said, “Oh yay!  That means we get to do pictures, right?”  So I found a cute little outfit for her and have been holding onto it ever since. My sweet little client that I was supposed to do a session with today was sick so I thought this was the perfect day to do Mya’s pictures.   I had to wake her up from her nap to get her ready since the sun is now down by 5:30 and she was not happy.  I almost said, “Forget it,” but once I told her that we needed to get going before it got dark so that we could take her pictures, she was up and so happy!  She was the cutest thing ever when we were out there.  Every person that passed by, she said, “I’m 4 1/2!  We’re doing pictures.  This was my idea!”  😉  If you know my girl, you know that she is very outgoing and loves to talk to adults, much more than her semi-shy momma!  And it just so happened that we went to a birthday party today so she wanted to bring her balloon, perfect!  I love this girl more than I love Mexican food.  Now that’s a whole heck of a lot.  LOL  Happy 1/2 birthday my sweet girl!  You rocked it tonight!

Her face is just so perfect to me, so angelic.  🙂

Boys Rock/Asheville Family Photographer

This evening I did a session with this family and they were a ton of fun.  There little boy has so much personality and had me laughing so much.  He was so, so sweet too.  I just have a love for little boys.  I want to pick them up and give them a big squeeze because I think they are the cutest things ever!  I really loved doing pictures for you guys and can’t wait to keep on editing your session.  But it’s past 9:00 and that means snooze time for this party animal that I’ve become.  lol

Lil Pumpkins/Asheville Baby and Child Photographer

Yesterday I did Halloween pictures for my Meetup group.  Yeah, I know, I normally post about my sessions the night of, but this “morning sickness”, as they call it, is really kicking my booty at night!  And my muscles are so sore, especially my abs, from laying on the ground, trying to get those perfect shots.  Man, sessions are going to get tough the further along I get with this pregnancy.  Or maybe I’m just getting old and out of shape.  lol  But I had the best time with these kids.  I love kids so very much and love that I get to still work with them, even though I’m not teaching anymore.  What a perfect evening spent with some very cool parents and some super cute kids!  Thank you guys!  Hope you all have a fun Halloween and hopefully it warms up because right now it is fr-fr-fr-freeeeeezing out!!  😉

This might be my favorite picture of all time that I’ve taken. I love everything about it.  Her momma is the most creative lady ever and Ava is the sweetest little girl who is the perfect model!

This is River’s little buddy.  I just love her!!  Her personality is like a huge ray of sunshine.  I had so much fun with her, playing in the leaves and carrying the pumpkins around.  She had a blast and so did I!  Isn’t her costume so cute?  Her momma made it.  These mommas are starting to make me look bad with my store bought costumes!  😉

These three are so cute!  And it’s so easy to get them to smile!  It just amazes me how easy it is to get them all to look and smile at the same time, a photographer’s dream!

The cutest baby costume ever!!

Remember this cutie from a recent session?  We got her to smile!  Yeah!  But she still made us work for it.  😉

I haven’t seen this little man in so long!  He’s still the happiest thing but I was expecting him to still be this immobile little baby.  Well, duh, of course he isn’t that little baby anymore.  He’s a very active little boy who wants to walk!  Everywhere!  😉  It was so great seeing you guys again!

Happy Halloween everyone!  Hope you get lots of treats!

The Lewis Bunch!

So, yes, we’ve gone crazy and have decided to add another Lewis to the “bunch”.  😉  We’re very excited but I won’t lie, we’re very nervous too!  I think we just finally figured out two.  lol  But like my mom always says, my favorite phrase has always been, “I’m bored!”  Gotta add something to life to keep me and my ADD self on my toes.  haha  In all seriousness, we feel very blessed to be able to have another baby and can’t wait to meet this new little one!  So if I have gagged at your session or have looked a little frumpy, it’s just that first trimester fun happening.  😉
