What a dream! Â Sweet baby Leighton slept so well for us. Â Â It helped that we had the studio a toasty 85 degrees and the space heater blasting. Â I have so many favorites that I just can’t choose….so I’ll post all my faves. Â A few new hats too. Â Found the big chunky cream one at a Holiday Bazaar last month and I knitted the new striped one.
 
Little Evan is missing his mama, who is out of the country serving with the military, and can’t be here for his first birthday. Â It was an honor to photograph him! Â Shyness was the rule in the beginning of the session, but I won out and got some smiles. Â Â We had great fun!
Â
I often joke with clients that I’d be happy if they come for their newborn session straight from the hospital, but never quite get any takers. Â This beautiful family was from out of town and preferred to not have to come back to Olympia a few days later for their newborn session. Â Luckily we were able to make it happen (you know how unpredictable those babies can be when it comes to being born at a certain time). Â Â And while I was CERTAIN that we’d get a million sleeping baby shots as he was so young, this little one had other ideas, and stayed awake for us the entire time. Â I have to say he was the most alert newborn for being so young. Â Â Older brother participated too and we also concentrated on a family portrait.
I posted last month some of the images we got outside from Miss Kendall’s one year portrait session, but I never got around to posting the ones we captured in the studio. Â She is just the sweetest little girl, and it makes me sad I won’t get to photograph her any more as her family is moving out of state. Â Â Its been a joy getting to know you Kendall!! Â Here’s one also from her newborn session a year earlier.
It was a nice break to have off over the holidays, but finally getting back to posting sessions again. Â This is a family wanting to update their family portrait because they have a new addition to their family! Â
