lucky you | south bend family photographer


It's Christmas card photo time, so I am trying to be careful with what I show here.  Lucky you!  You get to see individual pictures of these three darling sisters.  Such a treat to visit these three (and their parents) every fall.  Mom always does a fantastic job at coordinating everyone's outfits.  So cute!

honeydews and moos | elkhart children's photographer

This sweet family always has some giggle tricks up their sleeve and I absolutely LOVE that! Like little family inside jokes. Last time it involved Honeydews and this time it involved pigs and moos. Or was it horses and moos?? Either way, it worked!! This session documented year 4 for that pretty little gal above and 18 months for the handsome gent below. Loved the look they put together, too. A little fun pattern. A little coordinating colors. Throw in a coordinating stripe. And voila. Picture perfect.

I can't forget to mention this former Baby Steppers return to the blog, either. You know I love these visits.

it's a good day | elkhart, in baby photographer

Oh, goodness...where do I begin?! First of all, I can't help but smile as I drive up the tree-lined lane to this girl's gorgeous farmhouse. Just visiting makes me feel all warm and fuzzy. I can't imagine waking up there every morning. As I walked in the door, I was greeted with a sweet baby snuggling up close to her momma as she slowly woke from her morning nap. More warm fuzzies. Momma got her girl dressed and then we were ready to go. We sat her on the bed, momma popped out her pacifier and, friends, the rest is history. I shared on facebook the first (very.first.click.) image that we captured. Let's just say it was a good day.

Photographers everywhere are buying faux wood-plank floors and distressed brick wall backdrops. This, folks, is the real deal.

It's taking everything I have not to share the entire session with you. Just know that there are more gems where these came from. And let me tell you why I love what she's wearing. There's no collar to hide her little neck. No sleeves or socks to hide those soft little arms and perfect little toes. There are ruffles for texture. A yellow sweater for a pop of color. The polka dots and stripes mixed together are just the cherry on top.

Now, Sweet Hazel doesn't have an ornery bone in her body, but it looks to me like she's saying, "Babies...that's how it's done" in this outtake.


Finally, I'm thrilled...no beyond thrilled...for an upcoming announcement regarding these beautiful frames. Eek!

warm and sunny? | south bend family photographer

No, we didn't fly down to the warm and sunny South. Is it even warm and sunny in the South these days?? I met up with this gorgeous family at our very own Potawatomi Conservatories, after rescheduling our first session due to the 3 ft of snow that got dumped on South Bend earlier this month. It's always a bummer to have to reschedule, but I tell my clients that it will be worth the wait. And it was true, again, in this case. Totally worth the wait!

I absolutely love what this family put together in terms of coordinating their outfits. Don't they look sharp?! It may take a few trips to the mall to get it right, but it's so worth the extra effort.

Loved my time spent with you guys! Thanks for a fun session!

it's fall ya'll | south bend family photographer

It's Fall ya'll. Even if the thermometer reads Summertime temps. I had such a fun morning with this beautiful family. Don't they look terrific?! You guys keep spoiling me with the great coordinated (not exactly matching) outfits. Love that!

This family knows all about teamwork. Especially when it involves 3 babies, one girly-girly and their darling smiles. Thanks so much for all your silly work behind the camera! They even brought an extra sillyman to help. Way to think ahead! I think it paid off. Don't you??
