Cora at the Loft :: 3 Weeks

admin — Wed, 01 Jun 2011 09:16:30 +0000

There is a trend happening right now… all of my clients are having their second baby! No joke! It’s like they all got together and decided to have baby #2 at the same time even though they don’t know each other. I love seeing all the newborns I shot a few years ago becoming big sisters and brothers!

Meet Cora, little sis of Audrey. I first met Audrey, Reba and Matt when Audrey was only 5 weeks old. It was so crazy seeing her hold her new little sister! How can they grow up so quickly?!? Cora is like Audrey’s mini me. When I first saw her she looked just like Audrey! Both were born with a gorgeous full set of hair and big bright eyes!

I was excited that Reba and Matt were up for shooting at my loft. I’m starting to get a studio set up and I love all of the natural light I get. It worked out well and I can’t wait to use the loft again! Here are some favorites…

Love this backdrop! It worked perfectly for both Cora and Audrey!

She wasn’t so sure about holding Cora but did a good job!

Love the color and her blue eyes!

Such a cutie and so grown up!

Precious…

A little, tiny smile.

Love this one…

A happy mom and dad!

Duncan :: 10 Days Old

I was so excited to meet Duncan last week! I teach skating with his mommy, Sara, and have seen her belly grow over the past 9 months. I couldn’t wait to see what he would look like! He was quite content in mom’s belly and decided to come a few days late. It was a fun shoot because I got to hold little Duncan too! He is so tiny and so wiggly! He’s already scooting himself around, not wanting to stay in his poses. Mom and dad are going to have their hands full as he gets older. =) Here are some of my favorites of little Duncan…

The hat didn’t last very long but it was cute for a few of his sleepy shots!

So precious…

Duncan posed himself for this one. =)

“hello, who are you??”

Why do I always think the crying ones are so cute? Love this…

Cutest little custom made robot outfit ever!

Yoga pose…

It’s tiring being a model!

Since Duncan didn’t feel like sleeping and Sara lives so close, I told her to call me when he was sleeping the next day. I had about 2 minutes of sleeping Duncan and this is what I got! Love this chair!

Since he was in a good mood we thought, why not put him on the mantle. =)

Welcome Addisyn!

I was so excited to spend some time with little Addisyn last Friday. She is being adopted by an amazing family that I have known for awhile. Kyra is an awesome mom who has a love for all children. She has a heart of gold and would probably take in every child that needed a home if she could. =)

Addiysn is about 4 weeks old and as healthy as can be. She is receiving so much love from friends and family… especially from her brothers and sisters!

Here are a few I love…

She was so content just hanging out with me, letting me snap a few photos. =)

Love this! A little smile here and there…

They had this adorable kid size bench by the front door. Addisyn didn’t like laying on the wood so I had to put down the blanket. She had no problem falling asleep after that!

So peaceful, so precious…

Big brother Adam was enjoying his breakfast while I was doing the shoot. Sometimes it’s more fun to play with the food!

I love this one. I asked Adam to put his hands on his face thinking he wouldn’t. Well, he did and he thought it was funny. =)
