First time for everything!

Well, like just about anything in life, there is always a first time in photography. My first "official" photo shoot. My first PAYING photo shoot. :) My first engagement shoot. My first bridal shoot. My first wedding - then I quickly decided I'm not QUITE ready for that yet. lol. Well, I am honored to show you my first official newborn shoot. Now most newborn shoots can happen really anytime in the first few weeks of a child's life. The purpose is to capture what the baby looked like at birth because they change SO QUICKLY!

Emmalyn was about 7 weeks when we took her pictures and was just perfect! Well, except she was super sleepy and probably mad we were keeping her awake. But other than that, she was perfect. Even though she cried most of the shoot, I think we still managed to get some great shots! I felt bad we were keeping her awake when she wanted to just go to sleep! Sorry Emmalyn! Look how cute she is though!

Newborn!

Here's a little sneak peak of what I'm working on lately. This was my first official newborn photo shoot! Don't you just love baby feet? They are so tiny and cute! More to come soon!

Alicia's head shots

This past week I had the best time taking one of my best friend's pictures. Alicia needed new head shots for her job and asked me to take a few. We ended up heading downtown and found a cool red brick wall and had a mini-session. Alicia had me laughing the whole time! Here are a few shots from the session.

These are a few of the head shots that she sent to her job. I love them all! I couldn't pick just one.


Check out more of her head shots and others here on my Flickr page.
