This little one was just 8 days old for her newborn pictures. She was soooo sweet and cooperative! And of course, she’s perfectly adorable. Here are a few favorites:

At first, I was disappointed with the weather for not cooperating for this shoot, as I prefer outdoor sessions. However, I had no idea how gorgeous the church is inside and how much I’d love the indoor shots! These little girls could be professional models–they are beautiful, comfortable having their portraits taken, and very well behaved!
We did a couple of quick shots outside before heading in. It was cold and WINDY.



They are pretty in color, but I love how the black and white shots bring out those beautiful eyes!

Inside…


Love this one:











I am guessing that many of my readers will recognize this couple. If not, you need to get to Crossroads Community Church in Morrison! I had the honor of taking their maternity portraits this week. I have to say they are so much fun that I spent about as much time laughing as I did taking photographs (admittedly I had to a scrap a couple of shots because I was laughing too much to hold the camera still). The baby that will join this couple in the next few weeks is one of the luckiest babies alive. I can’t wait to meet him!
Since they were looking for relaxed images in their gorgeous historic home, we played a lot with natural light:

from a lot of angles…


They are such a happy couple, and so blessed, and they deserve every bit of it.


A couple of snuggle shots:


Here’s the WHOLE family:

Then, we headed up to the nursery and took some shots there, where I captured my favorite image:

along with a few other fun shots:



There is something I really like about this one. I usually prefer maternity images in black and white, but this one I was feeling the color version more:

Stay tuned…you will be seeing more of these two + one in March!
