Lauren- All dolled up!

This evening was Lauren’s newborn session.  You may remember here from her birth a few weeks ago. I’m not usually a big prop kind of girl, but Lauren’s mom brought everything a little girl’s dress-up trunk could ever want! From bonnets to bows, wings to hand made quilts, she had the works! Needless to say I did some out of the ordinary shots for me and here they are!

Any girl who can get in a bikini while pregnant (or at all for that matter) is deserving of my envy. 🙂

Josiah 22 Months

So since Autumn has been around and smiling I am noticing less and less great pictures of Josiah for a number of reasons. #1 He sees my camera and makes sure to avoid eye contact with it. #2 Autumn lunges for the camera, smiles and loves it. #3 I am just trying to document everything and don’t get a lot of alone time iwth him to just concentrate on getting good “portraits” of him. #4 He hates to be made to stop what he’s doing to look at the camera and stay still for even a moment.

SO I have lots of picture of him, but I have just been craving some better portrait type stuff. During Autumn’s nap we went outside right after the rain to snap a few before the heat and bugs became unbearable again.
