Baby M {Redding, CA Newborn Photographer}

Baby "M" is what this adorable little boy was called for the last nine months because he was a delivery day surprise! He has two beautiful big sisters, such a lucky boy! Thanks for letting me meet and photograph your precious son today, S family! More to come!

My Family {Redding, CA Family Photographer}

Ben is 10 months old and the family portrait we have framed on our mantle is still from 2 years ago! So last night I grabbed my camera and tripod and we walked to the river trail access in our neighborhood to take an updated, complete family portrait!

A few more! {Redding, CA Newborn Photographer}

I just love the way these turned out, I had to blog a few more!

As promised... {Redding, CA Newborn Photographer}

I really loved taking these newborn photos outside, it was a first for me and definitely something I am going to do as much as possible now! Thank you R family for bringing me such a sweet and sleepy baby today!

Big and Little Brothers {Redding, CA newborn photography}

These brothers are absolutely gorgeous! Check back for more of them, tomorrow we are taking shots outside!

Little Baby "C"

This morning my photographer friend Anne (www.decamp-photography.com) and I photographed baby C. She is an absolute doll baby and made us both realize just how big our own babies have gotten!

Summer Nights

This is our first summer of spending the evenings riding bikes and having light saber wars with the neighborhood kids. Mostly it's just Nick joining in on the fun but Courtney is slowly working her way into the group, a group of 4 boys! We love these evenings!

I also took tonight as an opportunity to work on being more spontaneous with my photography. I tend to be very organized and planned with my photoshoots, especially with my own children. So tonight I ran in and grabbed my camera and started shooting and I love the results! Even the falling out pony tail and dirty shins, but what did I expect, they were outside playing!
