Remember this family from last fall? We were back at the same park to take their last family portraits before the arrival of their newest family member. I just love working with them. They are one of the nicest couples ever and their son is just adorable! He was not as into taking pics this time but we got some wonderful shots. Thanks for a fun morning and I can’t wait to take new portraits in a few weeks!

I love this moment!

She couldn’t have picked a more coordinating outfit! She has just a perfect basketball belly!

I think she always looks fabulous in red…

And I had to mock this one up as a canvas. It’s just perfect!

Since big brother was sick when we did C’s initial newborn session, the family came back a week later to do some sibling and family shots. C was 17 days old when we were able to schedule another session. He was definitely more awake and more alert, but for family shots, it’s not as critical that he was sleeping. We got some great eye contact and very sweet shots.

So sweet…

Love that their arms are in the same position (we didn’t do that.)

He’ll never fit in the palm of his dad’s hand like this again…

And finally, he sleeps.

It’s the middle of December and I have yet to put up my Christmas tree or decorations. Time goes by so fast these days and I can’t seem to catch up! It was so nice to hang out with my sister and her family this weekend with their big beautiful Christmas tree! I took pics of my nieces and the family for their Christmas cards. Who knew that taking pics of them would be so challenging! I think because I know them so well, I knew when the smiles just weren’t quite them. We got some great shots, especially when we told my younger niece to strike a pose!

They weren’t dressed for the holidays, but my kids were wearing their Giants jerseys for good luck (too bad it didn’t work!)

You may remember the adorable T boys from September when baby brother C was born and I did his newborn session. I met up with them this weekend to do a quick mini session for the holidays. Big brother R just turned 3. It doesn’t seem that long ago that R and my daughter Bella were just babies when we first met! His mom is one of my dearest friends. Stay tuned in the upcoming weeks because I’ll be back with baby brother C for his next milestone session!

The G family was one of my first clients and here they are with their two adorable boys! I did younger brother O’s newborn pics a year ago, and here he is Mr. Independent walking around and not wanting to be held back! One year olds can be tough because they are mobile but don’t have any regard to listening at all! Older brother N was loving the camera though!

So serious, but catching them sitting and looking was a rare thing!
