Sweet Baby {A}

Sweet Baby A is finally here!!! Remember Renae's maternity pictures? They now have a beautiful baby girl =) Here are some of my favorite pics from the newborn session.



The bottom image has been a run-away hit! We're currently considering submitting it into some kind of military photo contest =) I'll be sure to update if anything cool happens!

I Heart Faces Challenge: Red

This week's photo challenge at I Heart Faces is: RED. Perfect for Valentines Day and perfect for the maternity session I had this weekend!

This adorable couple will be welcoming their little Buckeye in about 6 weeks!

Stop by I Heart Faces to see other interpretations of RED!

The {W} Family Downtown Maternity

Last weekend the {W} Family and I braved the cold to walk around "downtown" and find some beautiful backdrops for their maternity pictures! When you live in a town of less than 20,000 people the "downtown' area is a definite figure of speech ;)

I was so pleased with the beautiful areas we did find!!!





I was also thrilled to be able to present Jill and James with their images at the baby shower for their little girl just last night =) Can't wait to meet her!

{M} Mini Maternity

I had my first mini-session the other day. My friend, Renae is due to have her 3rd baby any day now! (gender unknown- not for lack of trying)

Our schedules are so busy that we finally were able to squeeze in a mini-session at her home this week. I'm so glad we did, they turned out beautiful!




So dramatic and beautiful!


Gotta love selective coloring in these moments!

Renae had the most wonderful red chaise. We definitely had to use it!




Who knew 9 months pregnant could look so great!


One last shot of Renae and her youngest child.

I can't wait to meet their newest little one!

The {T} Family Maternity Session

My Arizona trip was full of wonderful experiences. I was so honored to do a maternity session for my husband's brother Ryan and sister-in-law Marissa! They are expecting their first child, a little girl in January! Yeah for me...a new niece!

They were a joy to shoot! Even puppy Harley got in a few good shots!








Lena will be on her way soon!








HA HA! I loved this! Sorry, Ryan ;)



Obviously, Marissa thought it was funny too. Ryan...not so much =)



Marissa looking beautiful!



I really love how this session turned out!

I'll hopefully be back soon to take some pics of Lena too!

Lydia's Maternity Preview

It has been SO extremely hot here in Oklahoma over the past few weeks. So when my friend, Lydia, asked me to do some maternity and mom/son shots for her I knew we had to stay inside. It's not really my ideal situation, but we definitley made it work!!! She had some nice natural light through a sliding glass door and I had a few tricks up my sleeve to soften my flash.

Enjoy the preview of Lydia, Diego and baby Isaac due in September!






She's beautiful! And her eyes are amazing!!!






Diego needed those Cheerios! Gotta love it!


Sweet kiss for Mom.





We definitely had a lot of fun with this shoot! I can't wait to take some pics of little Isaac when he arrives =)
