adore this family.  I have photographed the boys a few times in the past and always love seeing them.  This time was definitely easier lol.  They are 5 now…or almost 5. (oops, my memory is slipping!)  They came in to celebrate their baby sister’s 1st birthday!

N and A are the sweetest little boys and hung around me like they’ve known me forever.  Well, I guess they HAVE, but they probably don’t realize it yet.  :-)  They were so sweet to their little sister - I hope they are forever!

I love her little cake face!

This is something a little different for me, but it was a lot of fun.  Lodi Community Hospital contacted me to photograph patients of theirs for a marketing campaign.  The models and the hospital were all so nice to work with!  The story told here is very true; Rich told me himself.  How cool is that?!

Miss S has such amazing eyes!  She was pretty quiet and calm so she was easy to photograph…Center of mommy and daddy’s world…I love it!

It’s so obvious this family really cares for each other.  They were all considerate of the other, making sure everyone was photographed and everyone was happy.  You all were such a joy to photograph!

Baby C came into the studio with her mommy and grandma.  She was so laid back and quiet, which made my job a little easier.  :)  C is just so cute and yummy - I could cuddle her for ages!  Her mommy and grandma love her so much and it really shows.

Isn’t he just so adorable?  Mom and dad are so crazy about their cute little boy.  I just loved watching them talk to baby C - especially dad as he gushed the entire time over his son.

I have never seen a baby play peek-a-boo like this before.  It was so cute and funny that I was practically crying with laughter!

OK, back to editing for me.  Yes, I know it’s Friday night, but I’m really just that cool. 

Here is a quick sneak peek of a maternity session.  Clearly this couple is going to have a gorgeous baby! There are several awesome images, but I have to make sure mom-to-be doesn’t mind sharing. 

It certainly wasn’t THAT long since I last saw S, but she has changed so much since the last time.  Just look at those chubby cheeks and dimples!

S has such amazing eyes.

Just a reminder that the charity model search is still going on for families until March 15.

This sweet baby came in to celebrate her birthday with me!  Her mom had all sorts of adorable outfits for her and that made it even more fun.  P wasn’t too interested in her birthday cake…she was very dainty about sticking her little fingers into the frosting to get a few licks.  I love messy cake faces, but also love to share in some frosting with the baby…I think it gives the baby good luck or something. 

I think the first one is my favorite out of the whole session!
