Holden + Cooper

November 9, 2009 – 9:47 pm

Sweet, newborn, tiny, scrunchy-faced, sleepy, super-tolerant, 8 day old Cooper came to play today, and brought his older brother Holden and cute parents along to help. I was lucky enough to photograph Holden as a newborn as well (almost 2 years ago), and was honored to be asked to document this new little life.

Mr Holden has decided that he’s not too sure about his little brother. Scratch that, he IS sure…and he’s not thrilled. So we got a little creative on the big brother front (Thank you, leftover Halloween candy!):

And we were even able to snag a few family photos before blue-eyed Holden decided he was ready to go outside and play:

The rest of the time Cooper slept…he let us do a myriad of crazy photographer things to him, and was as cooperative as his name might imply:

See how sweet and snuggly he is? (And how gorgeous this mommy of 2 boys is? Say it with me…It isn’t FAIR. No one should look this good with an 8 day old.)

Welcome to the world, Baby Cooper. And welcome to the land of Big Brothers, Sweet Holden. Soon you two will be the best of friends…I just know it!

Sean, Christopher, Andrew + Michael

November 7, 2009 – 8:25 pm

This morning’s romp through the fields was in honor of this sweet family of six. Baby Michael joined the pack seven months ago, and his brothers (8, 5, and 2) give him a lot to look forward to!

I laughed as we traipsed uphill, trying to keep up with Sean and Christopher, trying to keep Andrew moving forward…and couldn’t help but remark that keeping the boys moving in the same direction was like trying to herd crickets. Dad quipped “What we need is a sheepdog.”…but boys dashing in opposite directions or not…we still managed to capture these four boys loving on one another and having a good time:

I mean, when this is your first capture, you know it’s going to be fun!

Of course, we had to make sure that every boy had his chance in the spotlight…

Lila + Juliette

November 5, 2009 – 9:29 pm

Meet sisters Lila and Juliette. Lila is known as a miracle baby around these parts…she was born with a part of her aorta missing, and had open heart surgery at 3 days old. See her little scar?

She’s grown into a gorgeous, healthy, blue eyed 16 month old ball of sass and love. Miracle.

I love these two girls together…we ended up using a lot of bribery and have quite a few both-looking-at-the-camera-and-not-strangling-each-other images…but it’s this one that melts my heart:

Big sister Juliette was beyond thrilled when her mom gave her lip gloss to play with during our shoot. Which meant, of course, and little sister Lila had to get involved. And I didn’t notice what she was doing with her nose until I downloaded these. Yes, I laughed out loud :)

We had to recreate this from Juliette’s one year Sugar shoot…I love this mural SO SO much!

Hmmm…do you think Juliette is finished with this whole photo session dealio?

I’m going to take this as an emphatic YES! (LOL)

Izabella

November 5, 2009 – 9:14 pm

Last year I had the best time with Izabella, and was thrilled when her mom called to book a session for their holiday cards again. She had the cutest clothes last year, and this year’s wardrobe certainly did NOT disappoint!

Her parents are pretty stylish themselves…

…but just look at this tiny fashionista:

Iza knows where to find the very best snuggles…right between mom and dad :)

Dylan, Libby + Ella

November 1, 2009 – 10:37 pm

One of our weather-rescheduled sessions from last week was of this fashion forward, full of love, family of five (say that four times fast).

Dylan, Libby and Ella are the trio of gorgeous girls that calls Sugar’s own stylist Mommy. Mindy has an amazing sense when it comes to finding that perfect outfit for your shoot, and once again, her girls were dressed in drool-worthy clothes. Take a peek:

I love these girls because they truly do adore one another, and it shows. Of course, we tried to keep Miss Ella in the middle of each grouping…she IS the star of the show, dontcha know!

I snapped this one at the end and have GOT to get my kids photographed…I would kill for a photo of my 7 year old looking as tender, wise, and on the verge of girlhood as Libby:

Of course, I MUST show off this entire gorgeous family…LOVE LOVE LOVE!
