Ruffles, Bows and Mommy! - Woodlands Child Photographer

I have had the priveldge of taking Miss C's portraits since she was just a few days old. And man, I can not believe she is already 6 months old. She has such a personality already. That is one of the greatest parts of this job is to get to see all of these kids grow up into their own little people. But Miss C, came by with Mommy and we had such a great time playing with the bouquets, tutus and hats. Now that she is crawling, it is so much more fun! Just throw something her way and she is off to explore it. There were so many good shots I could decide. Enjoy!

1.10.10 1st Birthday - Woodlands Photographer

I can not believe that is has been a year, since I met my little miracle for the first time. I remember that first day so vividly. Waking up in the middle of the night in labor, welcoming him after 5 hours, waiting 6 hours before I could hold him due to him being in the NICU. Oh it was a long day, and a long night, as I just held him close to me, once I did finally get my hands on him.

And now, a full year later, we have gone through and learned so much. Being a first time mom, I was so green at so much. But we made it through and we are still standing!

For all of you moms that are still in the middle of those sleepless nights, hang in there. They will end. You are headed for some fun times ahead. Today was a great example of that. We had many moments of laughter this weekend. He is getting so smart and fun to be around. Here is a few photos from his first birthday today.

And in honor of my little monster, I have two specials!
  • I'm waiving the sitting fees for maternity and newborn sessions for February and March! So if you know of any mommies to be, send them my way.
  • And because Caden was born on the 10th, the first 10 people to book in February will receive 10% off of their entire order. (This does not apply to Tippy Toes participants)
Enjoy those little ones, they grow up way too fast!

I have had the pleasure of getting to see Miss S grow up. When she arrived she fit in her daddy's hand, see her newborn shoot. Now she is such a happy little one. We had such a good time playing in the tutu's and taking pictures. Here are a few sneak peaks from her 6 month photo shoot.
