Family Love! | Defiance, MO Newborn Photographer

February 28, 2010

Had such a fun time photographing the B family today.  Seriously, what’s not to love? First, I love the drive to Defiance. So pretty, peaceful and relaxing. Sure, it’d be prettier with some leaves on the trees, but it’s still great! Second, they have the most well-behaved dog. OK, mine are pretty good too, but this dog sets new levels of standards for all canines out there. Third, lots of natural light streaming through the house even though they literally live in the woods. And finally and most importantly, the family is just the sweetest, fun-loving folks that are photogenic to boot! Angel of a baby, adorable brother, caring and loving parents . All of these things just simply make a good day!  Enjoy the sneak peek!

Today’s Find – Ruffle Butts!

February 24, 2010

I’m always on the search for cute bloomers for my lil’ girl and today I found the cutest ones ever – Ruffle Butts! They have so many cute options for girls sized newborn to 4T – diaper covers, bloomers, pants, jeans, swimsuits, beanies, tees, swing tops, dresses, etc… These are seriously the cutest things ever and I can’t wait to pick up a bunch of bloomers and swimsuits for my daughter.

When my daughter was a baby, I hated the bloomers that came with her dresses and I really detested her diaper showing – especially since I was taking her picture all the time! I really wish I had found these back when Lily was born, but at least she’s not too old for me to grab some of these ruffle pretties. You see, now that she’s three, most dresses don’t come with bloomers, but she’s not at an age where she knows not to pull her dress up and to sit like a lady, so I always worry about her undies showing. I’ve made a few bloomers, but they’re not nearly as cute as these! Also, those ruffle bikinis are too adorable! I can’t resist.

If you have a lil’ girl, you should really check out Ruffle Butts and think about purchasing a few bloomers. Not only are they practical, but think of how cute your pictures will look with these cute ruffled bottoms – WAY better than showing off a diaper and timeless to boot! As a baby photographer, I really like taking portraits of lil’ babes in the buff or in sweet diaper covers since most clothes swallow them when they’re first born. I think I found exactly what I was looking for to cover those diapers at my custom photo sessions. Now I just need to find some solutions for the boys…

Three Months! | O’Fallon Baby Photographer

February 8, 2010

It was a delight to see Ms E yesterday and capture her evolving personality and sleepiness. This was her second session as part of the Baby’s First Year Program and I’m just amazed with how much she’s grown in such a short time. She has so much strength now and lights up a room with her smile. I have to say, I think her parents are doing a fantastic job.  She’s on a great schedule, she sleeps TEN hours at night already and seems to be happy as can be! What a dream!!! So, without further ado…here’s lil’ Ms E. Enjoy the sneak peek!
