I truly love that my clients come back to see me for special moments in their lives. For this gorgeous momma, she was having another adorable little baby!! I was able to capture newborn photos for her little boy just over a year ago, and now...baby belly photos of his soon to be little sister. So exciting to watch this family grow. 

Here are just a few of my favorite images from this beautiful studio maternity session.

I am so glad this this adorable little girls momma signed up for a Growing Baby portrait plan with me. I am in awe at beautiful she is, and how fast she is growing! This was her 6 month sitter session, and she was SO proud of herself sitting up like a big girl. Absolutely the best! 

Here are just a few of my faves from this adorable growing baby session...

Oh the fun of a Cake Smash session! The cake, the decorations, the sheer joy on a little one's face as they make a HUGE mess. Ha!
It is all SO much fun! 

This beautiful little lady had a blast, but what made this session that much more special....
Photos with mom and dad. 

There is nothing better that a few one-on-one images with your child, or even getting a family photo done for their birthday. It makes the photo session that much more special, and shows your child just how much they mean to you. That they are SO loved. 

Well, Miss Nicole...you are definitely the light of your parents world, and your images show it. 

I hope you enjoy just a few of my favorites from this ADORABLE Cake Smash session here in my cozy little home studio.
If you are interested in learning more about the sessions I offer, just drop me a call or email anytime. I am happy to help!

At the end of December this last year I ran a special promotion for a 5 Free Family sessions. We had a HUGE response and found five amazing families withing a few days. This adorable couple is one of those families, and they wanted a January outdoor photo session.

Come to find out....they had a special request. They are becoming Foster Parents and wanted to make a very special announcement in their session to tell their friends and family. I, of course, was more than happy to help them out with this request. It's always so exciting to be apart of special announcements like this. I'm honored they chose me to capture this special time in their lives. 

So, with the help of their two sweet puppies, we did some amazing shots out at Bader Park in Chapman, NE. Several shots to announce their big change coming. Then several stunning images of the love this couple shares. They truly radiate so much love between them. I can't wait to watch their family grow.

Check out just a few of my favorites below.

Little Miss Camille is so squishy cute! And she was in my studio for some amazing newborn photos this week. I couldn't believe how much she had already changed in just under 2 weeks! But she still had those precious little rolls that I love so much to photograph. There are just so many images that I want to share with you all, so please enjoy the bunch I have listed here. They are some of my favorites!

This sweet little girl has been quite a handful from the git go. Momma has had a rough pregnancy trying to keep her in, as well as a few complications towards the end of her pregnancy. It has been a fingers crossed type pregnancy for sure, but they made it. And today is the day to meet their precious little girl.

Now...the "due" date has been in my calendar for almost 8 months. Not really moms EDD, but her estimated C-section date. Since I knew it was going to be a Cesarean, I didn't plan anything that day or anything that whole week just in case. However, little did we all know that there would be health issues that would bump up her c-section a whole week early to a day that I already had a session scheduled.

I was so worried I would miss this birth! I had been planning to be there for the whole pregnancy practically. Been praying for a healthy momma and baby since the moment she told me she was expecting, and now I might miss it if they schedule her surgery too early.  Oh no!  Luckily though, the time was set for noon and I could quickly go in the early morning for a family session with plenty of time to get to the hospital for this wonderful 'birth'day. Yay!

When I get there, mom is just chilling out in the prep room. She kept saying "I can't believe this is real." and "I can't believe we are going to have two kids."

Then the moment came...and the hospital nurse sadly said I wouldn't be able to go back for the birth. I was so sad, but had already prepared dad that he may have to take my camera back with him. The look of terror on dad's face was priceless, but he did amazing and captured his daughters first couple of moments.

After an hour, the grandparents and I were allowed back to meet this new little princess...and daddy was more than happy to hand me back my camera to finish this beautiful birth story. And I was more than happy to oblige.

I had never seen a baby with such dark, long, THICK hair at birth. But on top of all that gorgeous hair...she had mile long eye lashes to match. She was truly a beautiful little peanut weighing in just over 5 pounds. A petite princess.

But I think the best part of my day...seeing her big brother's face as he met his little sister for the first time. It was perfect! Hit just lit up with sheer joy on his face. Or maybe he was just excited about the balloon in the room? HA! Either way...he was super smiley.

Last year, I got an email from a momma in Alaska wanting to do some maternity photos here in Vegas. Awesome! The session went amazing, and then this year, the same momma and her beautiful little family are back in town visiting. So we had to do some fun family photos. And can I just tell you how adorable this little bub was!!! Just too cute!!

Photos were taken out at Sunset park in the early morning...perfect light for this perfect family.

It is so funny what brings people together. Just a while ago I was just selling some cloth diapers our son wasn't going to use, and this lovely momma contacts me to purchase some. Great! When she comes over to pick them up, we start talking. Turns out her husband is from Nebraska. Hey, me too! 

In fact, her husbands family lives just 15 minutes from mine! Say what!?!? Such a small world. Here we are all the way in Las Vegas, NV...and our families grew up just down a dusty road from each other. So funny!

So, then she asks if I will do their newborn photos. Ummm...OF COURSE! I was so honored. And when they showed up just a couple weeks later with this ADORABLE big sister and precious little Miss Maja...it was like a dream. They were so perfect to photograph.
