This little guy came with mom & dad to the studio a few weeks back for his newborn session.  He was perfection for his session and he’s just about as sweet and cute as they come!  I love the little sleepy smiles we captured.  That’s one of my favorite things about newborns, when they’re in that REM sleep stage and they have those sporadic little smiles…they’re perfection. :-)

L & N, I had a wonderful time meeting your new family of three and I was honored to be able to capture these images of little O.

This breathtaking little beauty was the first little newborn to break in my studio since I’m typcially on location with newborns, but it was wonderful having them come out to the studio for their baby girl’s newborn session.  The first thing I noticed about Miss P was her fabulous hair!  It was amazing and so soft and spikey at the same time.  I think she had more hair than my toddler!

At first she wasn’t too keen on getting all sleepy for us, but we eventually won her over and got some great shots of her.

Sometimes I love awake shots as much as the sleepy ones!

This shot on the left, mom and dad had done a similar shot with their older daughter to display their matching tatoos.  I love how this turned out with our own take on it.  And we worked HARD to get the pose on the right.  I think we managed to pull it off!

D&T, I can’t thank you enough for letting me capture your gorgeous baby girl.  Thanks for being so patient and fun during our session!  I had a wonderful time meeting you all and am so excited for you to see the rest of your images!

I had the pleasure of meeting this gorgeous little girl and her sweet family last weekend as she turned just 6 days old.  She was an a-m-a-z-i-n-g sleeper for us, which is always a nice surprise.  She didn’t disappoint in the cuteness department either.  I had been wanting to get some outdoor newborn shots for quite sometime now, but living in Minnesota, that’s not always a possibility.  But, fortunately this time, it was hotter outside than it was inside, so we headed out to their beautiful garden in the backyard and got some great shots among their garden.

I loved using this blanket that was hand made for Miss M, isn’t it beautiful?  A perfect heirloom to have!

B Family, it was such a pleasure meeting you all and especially your sweet baby girl.  Thank you for the opportunity to photograph her!

I had the pleasure of first meeting baby L’s mom & dad at the Baby Expo back in April and was so excited when they contacted me to do the newborn session for their new baby boy!  This little guy was a fabulous little sleeper and even though he woke up for the second half of our session, we got some wonderful awake shots of him.  Isn’t he a gem?  He’s about as cute as they come!

Thank you H Family for choosing me to capture your little guy during this special time in your lives.  I had a wonderful time photographing him and hope you love these images as much as I do!

So, start sending your photos!  I can’t wait to see all of your adorable little ones faces!

I’m sure I’m not the only one that is SO sick of Winter already.  It’s always this time of year that I think we all start getting spring fever!  Warmer days (aka – 40 degrees!) begin to appear and the snow slowly starts to melt.  It won’t be long before those little crocus flowers are peeking through the last little bit of snow. 

March is already upon us and with that, our calendar has been filling up quickly with Spring sessions!  So, if you are hoping to get a session scheduled in the next couple of months, you’ll want to act quickly!  We only have one opening left in March and two openings left in April!  We’re also taking bookings in May and June now as well.

Worried about the weather?  No reason to worry now as we now have indoor, natural light studio space at my home in Rosemount.  Of course, we will prefer to stay on location for most of our sessons, but it’s a nice alternative in case the weather is an issue.

Of course since no post is complete without a photo, here’s a recent one of some snowflakes that were on my car window one morning. :-)

Prepare yourself for the cuteness!  There’s nothing I love more than a sweet little girl to get all dressed up and girly.  I LOVE these kinds of sessions where we bust out fun props and backdrops.  Sweet Miss A’s family contacted me to have a 9 month session for their little peanut and she was as cute as could be!

She had the most gorgeous sparkly blue eyes.

And we had SO much fun with her in the tutu!

I just couldn’t resist her adorable little toes.  This is one of my favorite shots.

And I love that mom and dad wanted to do some shots in her room with her favorite book.

And we braved the outdoors in one of the snowiest winters I can remember in a LONG time and took a few outside.  She had the most adorable little fur coat and matching boots!

Wow…you guys are going to LOVE these!  One of my new product offerings for 2010 are these stunning Custom Image Boxes.  These photos just do NOT do them justice, you have GOT to see them in person to appreciate their true beauty.  They are part of our new Meadowood Lane Collection offering (and can be purchased as an add on to your a la carte order) and are an awesome choice for when you want to get all of the images from your session.
