Baby's First Year

Off-the-Clock Photos {Indiana Nature & Pet Photographer}
Posted on January 10, 2012
What am I photographing when I don’t have a cute baby, kiddo, or gorgeous high school senior in front of my lens? My own children, of course, and nature and scenery, too! I’m always wanting to share some of my own personal photos, but usually never get around to it. Here are a few I snapped this past weekend. On Saturday, the twins and I went to our awesome library (just down the road from us!) for reading with Smokey! Isn’t he gorgeous?
His owner generously shares him with young children and nursing home residents. The twins really enjoyed reading to him.
We kinda wanted to take him home. : )
He’s a well-read dog! : )
It was so beautiful on Saturday, that we decided to go hiking that evening. As far as nature photography goes, I’ll admit that winter is
my least favorite season. But even winter has it’s natural beauty!
I’ll close with one more photo I took last weekend, of our cute little kitty, Tiger. He’s just as adorable in person! : )
I love animals and photographing them, and I’ve been considering offering pet photography mini-sessions sometime this year if there
is enough demand. Let me know if you’d be interested!

Introducing Ani Grace {Jasper, IN Baby Photographer}
Posted on January 2, 2012
This just might be the fastest sneak peek ever. I couldn’t resist taking a peek, myself, at the images captured at cute little Ani’s session today—after first taking an impromptu nap in the living room chair after getting home. : ) Yes, baby Ani wore me out today. She is one curious little girl and was so alert today. Ani made her debut just before Christmas! Here are a couple favorites of my sweet, inquisitive little friend at 12 days old.

One, Going on 11! {Ferdinand, IN Baby Photographer}
Posted on December 29, 2011
Last week I had a wonderful time playing with, hugging on, and capturing portraits of the adorable Miss Piper. Born on New Year’s Eve, last year, she is just two days away from one whole year! Any parent will tell you that the months fly by. As this family’s lucky photographer, I can tell you that is so very true! I can still remember Piper’s newborn session (here and here) like it was yesterday! I can still remember each of big brother Cash’s sessions like they were just the other day! (Do a search for Cash and/or Piper on my blog and you’ll find plenty of cute posts. : )
Miss Piper is a very entertaining, BUSY, active, sweet, delightful baby girl. I’m sure her Mommy & Daddy are soaking up the last of her baby days before she turns into a toddler on the run. (I don’t give her long–she’s already a stable walker and never sits still.)
The post title is in reference to this little “pose.” Too funny and too cute!!
Piper’s 1st Christmas!
This baby girl wears angel wings well! : )
That cake stood no chance. She happily DEMOLISHED it–and ate a couple bites, too.
Stay tuned for MORE BABIES coming to the blog! I love winter baby sessions at home!!

‘Tis the Season to be Jolly {Ferdinand, IN Baby & Children’s Photographer}
Posted on November 28, 2011
.
And sweet little Liam was definitely jolly the morning of his session! When we were planning his session, I was thrilled that his momma mentioned that she likes the diaper-only photos as those are always my favorite kind of photos at the 6-8 month age! It is perfect for showing off all that beautiful baby perfection and keeping the focus on baby and all those adorable expressions! I love creating pure, simple, beautiful baby photos. Liam’s session was done right at his Grandma’s house where he was visiting for Thanksgiving. In-home baby photo sessions are also perfect for photos in baby’s nursery, on Mom & Dad’s bed, in the living room, with the family pet, etc. And the best part of all? You don’t even have to leave home and it’s so easy to break for bottles and diaper changes.
While I was editing these photos, my husband walked into my office and asked “What do you want for Christmas?” I smiled and said “One of these.” : )
It’s no secret I’m baby crazy. I guess I always have been–if you ask my Mom what was at the top of my childhood wishlist for Santa year after year,
she’d tell you: A baby brother or sister. : )
I adore this sweet photo of Liam & his Mommy!
And Liam was the perfect model for this adorable little tie & vest onesie made just for his session by my very talented sister, Leah.
(No, she doesn’t sell them, but they can of course be found in abundance on Etsy.)
Did this guy dish out the cuteness or WHAT?? This is the first photo that I posted on facebook the day of his session.

That’s so cool that Smokey comes to the library! And that the library is so close! Looks like the twins really love reading to him.
The collection of other scenic photos…..WOW! I really like them all. Can’t pick a favorite!
As for Tiger, well he just looks so soft and fluffy. It must be nice to sit outside and just pet him.
Where’s the other kitty?? Too busy playing on the playset?
Looove the winter water/branch image and the succulent one! Wow!
I love them all! I really love the winter branch and the one right after (I agree completely about winter!). Reid loved Smokey as Santa Paws! Forget the real Santa…he wanted the dog!
Ohhhhh these are just fantastic! I love them all… It is so awesome to get a glimpse into your daily BEATIFUL life. PLEAS post off the clock whenever as often as possible!
Yay! We finally get to see one of your new additions! I saw you had this post a few days ago but couldn’t get it to pull up on my phone.
So just remembered to come by. I LOVE the winter branch and the one right after that. How did you get a dog in the library?? I always love your non-session posts too!
