Mr. Blake & Miss Abigail | Twins 10 Months

I just have to say it took no time at all for these two to warm up to the camera. {well maybe a little} They did GREAT and it is hard to tell they were in the NICU for TWO whole months!! They are happy and healthy and Mommy and Daddy couldn't love them more. I loved them too ;}

PS. As most little ones do, they LOVED pulling fuzz from the rug and then trying to eat it... I can't imagine it would taste as good as it looks...

Harley and Iris | Siblings

These two gorgeous littles were so fun to have in the studio!! Little Iris is SO sweet and she was one of my Birth sessions that I LOVED. I was fortunate enough to photograph big brother since he was a newbie too and I am so happy I got to see him and his new baby sister again too ;}

Henry 1 & Jack 2 | 1 Year Twins & Cake Smash

These little guys just crack me up! I had so much fun with them and I can't wait for big sister's photos!!!! One did NOT enjoy photos as much as the other, but I still think they are cute even if they cry ;} They both really like Mommy and its hard to just start posing for the camera especially when the camera lady isn't Mom!! 

Thanks guys for giving me a few laughs. I really enjoyed watching you destroy your cakes!!! :}

PS You can't see it here, but the cakes actually had blue cotton candy to look like Thing 1 and Think 2 hair... ADORABLE. 

The secret to these cake smash sessions is totally easy... the cakes are AH-MAZING... That is TOTALLY how I feel when I have one of these cakes in front of me! I totally want to dig right in... I don't of course... unless no one is watching ;}  If you need a cake just give me a jingle or e-mail and I will send you my cake lady's contact info!!! BEST $$ you will EVER spend on cake. Seriously. Just ask half the clients that try the cakes and have called her to make one for other occasions. I call her for ALL of my cake needs :}

Conner | 1 Year And Farming Like A Pro

Gosh I love this little man!! It was hard to keep him in one spot, but boy oh boy is he cute!!! I am pretty sure I can say he 100% liked his cake too... I could have been a little messy, but thats just how a 1 year old should eat his cake!! I couldn't help but snap a quick pic of after cake... he really enjoyed the little sink bath we gave him!!

Oliver | 6 Months

This handsome little guy and his parents came to visit me not too long ago and I just LOVED seeing them again!! He is SO loved by Mommy and Daddy and so lucky to have them as parents!! I got to photograph his newborn and as much as he has changed he is still SO cute and sweet. 

PS I almost love catching the sad faces as much as the happy ones... he is still so cute even when he cries. And thats life folks! ;}

Ellie | Sweet As Can Be At Two Years

WOW how this little babe has grown!! I was fortunate enough to be able to take her newborn photos TWO whole years ago and I am amazed at how she has grown into an oh-so-sweet and adorable little girl!!! I really couldn't get enough of her little chatter. It is so funny, but she reminds me of that adorable little voice of "Boo" on Monster's Inc and she just adores that movie!!! Everyone in my house loves it too - it was one of the first movies the girls actually sat and watched!! She even brought her little friends to visit me... How cute right?!?

Aria | Happy & Smiling At 6 Months

Oh, Aria. You always give me great smiles every time I see you! I just LOVE how animated you are!! I don't think you could get any cuter :} 

PS I get to see her soon for her 9 Month photos... I am excited, but I CAN'T believe how fast time is going!!! She is one of my one year babies... I got to see her in the hospital and I get to watch her grow. That is one of the BEST parts of my job.

Sassy Taylor | 4 Years Old

This girl ROCKED her session. She totally fooled me though when she got to the studio... she acted SO SHY and then after about ten minutes she was all about smiling and posing for the camera. I loved it! She is one sweet and sassy girl ;} I think she could have modeled for me all day! I forgot to mention her little outfits were just ADORABLE... I know that is what you were thinking....

I just loooove this family sooo much. Momma is very crafty and has always had some awesome ideas for photos! They have also been in the Fargo Forum for her great decorating skills... I will have to have her come over when we re-decorate ;}

PS Big brother Hendrix is such a fun little man and a great big brother.

Little Lucas | 3 Months

Awww I think this little guy is so adorable!!! He has such awesome blue eyes and looked so darn sweet with his little bow-tie and vest onesie and AWESOME bulldog hat I think Grandpa got him?? His adorable Mommy and I had fun getting some good smiles from him ;} 

I have to give a shout-out to his Daddy too. I went to high school with him and he is the owner of 3 awesome hangouts... Dave's Southside Tap in Moorhead, Bulldog Tap in Fargo {hence the bulldog hat - how cool right??} and Red Hen Taphouse in Dilworth. I may be missing one... If I am forgive me!! lol I can say I have been to them and they are ALL great places to get a drink and have a bite to eat!! Go check them out!

Thanks for letting me have some fun with your sweet little man. You guys can come back any time!!!
