Turning ONE is so much FUN! | First Birthday cake Smash | Lake County Ohio Photographer

I've been a terrible blogger.  I admit it.  But I've been very busy spending time with adorable babies this year.  Some of whom were celebrating their first birthdays!  With their first tastes of CAKE!!

 I really love it when I ask parents if they want to include a cake smash with their first birthday portrait sessions.  Because what is cuter than a baby digging into cake?

 Maybe twins digging into cake?  Or one twin digging into cake and one totally freaked out about frosting touching him!

 Every baby is different.  Some dig right in!

 And some are quite skeptical and don't give it a try.

 Most babies, even if they don't taste it, will get their hands and feet into it!

 And three babies and a cake....adorable!

 I love when they are all smiles!

Or when mom and dad join in on the fun.  After all, when you give a baby a whole cake, there is bound to be a bit left over to share...maybe even with your photographer!  :)

Happiest baby on the Block | Chagrin Falls, OH Baby Photographer

This little girly girl was napping when I came to her house and despite being woken up from her little snooze, she was all smiles!

Having fun with mommy and daddy definitely brought a smile to her face.

She was making all kinds of cute faces actually.  I love to capture those and put them in a storyboard.  I know I never wanted to miss one cute expression so this way they are in a little collage so you can see them all at once!

And Baby Makes Three | Wickliffe, OH Newborn Photographer

This little guy was one of the easiest newborn sessions I've had.  He was such a wonderful little sleeper and didn't mind being posed a bit!  We got the cutest photos from his session.  Like this one...

Seriously adorable right?  And this one...

Could he be more perfect in every way?!   And I love this timeless photo of him.  I would stick this one on canvas for sure.  He's just gorgeous!

And of course, photos of the new mommy and daddy with their sweet little guy.  Radiating with love huh?

Sweet Baby Boy | Mentor, OH Newborn Photographer

I LOVE photographing newborns.  Getting to see and hold these teeny tiny babies, so fresh and new and just beautiful!  The sessions take a lot of time, sometimes up to four hours, but the results are gorgeous.  Everytime I 'm editing a newborn session I see these photos and think ART!  I would stick this photo of this sweet little baby on canvas and hang it in my home and its not even my baby!  :)

Like this sweet little guy...

Beautiful huh?  Or this one of his sister giving him a kiss where he has a tiny little smile.  So precious now but imagine how precious it will be they are all grown up and have been lifelong friends and can look back on that day when he was only a little over a week old and she loved him so much already.  ♥

And I love black and white but a pop of color is so beautiful too.  Such a sweet little man in his colorful tie on the red background.

And of course taking photos of the newborns is amazing but I love the photos of the newly expanded family.  In this case, baby makes 4!

I've been way behind on my blogging but I had to get some pics of these beautiful kids up!

This was the first time I used this brick backdrop...yup, its not real brick...and I LOVE it!  Looks absolutely gorgeous with the hot pink and orange!

 They were stunning in purple too!  What great kids and what a great family!

Sweet Baby Girl | Chagrin Falls Newborn Photographer

I had the pleasure of photographing this sweet baby girl and her family recently.  Isn't she gorgeous against the gold rosette background?  So feminine without all of the pink!

As was her almost two year old sister, although she wasn't quite interested in being photographed that day. (What 2 yr old is really?)  Look at those lovely eyelashes.

I loved the teal and chocolate set-up so we tried not once, but twice to get a picture of this beautiful babe in this adorable hat.  The second time she was just sleepy enough to make herself comfortable.

And of course we got mom and dad in front of the camera too, with their beautiful baby girls.  (Two is still a baby right?  I have a two year old and he will always be my baby. ♥ )

Triplets Turn One | Painesville, OH Cake Smash Photographer

I've met a lot of cute babies but three adorable one year olds at once!?  How fun!  Their mom made them not one, but two sets of the cutest onesies and matching tutus.  How one has time to be crafty with three one year olds crawling around I'll never know but I have a feeling organization and a schedule plays a part.

The girls really enjoyed their cake and were perfect little ladies keeping the mess to a minimum...

They were so sweet together too.  And when mom and dad broke out the toys that sang, they started dancing right on cue!

All in all I think they are going to like being one!  And the birthday cake wasn't bad either!  :)

Inquisitive Four Month Old - Baby Photographer | Madison, OH

You will probably hear me say this about every stage of babyhood but I LOVE the stage where their personalities start to develop, they get a sense of humor (mom is always the most funny), and you can see the wheels turning when they see new things/people. You know, around four months old! Like this little guy that I had the pleasure of photographing last weekend.

He was a bit skeptical about the lady with the big black box in front of her face (that would be me), sticking hats on him and putting him in baskets.

He just stared right into my eyes (and into my lens luckily!) to try to figure me out.

But when he smiled, well, the room would just light up!

Great to meet you little guy. And your too mommy and daddy!

This little princess was as sweet as can be and obviously just adored by her two big brothers!
