this sweet little guy was the first baby to my new studio and he was awesome!

i just LOVED his little nose with all the ‘dots’ (that’s the technical term, right? )

last week i needed a baby girl to model a set for me- i knew this little lady would be perfect for the job!

we had a mini-newborn session, and after she got settled in, she did amazing.

can you even handle those gorgeous lips and eyelashes!?!?!

sweet miss sadie bee… what a precious gift you are.

this precious little love was my very last session of 2014…and we definitely ended with a bang!

she was as feisty as she is beautiful and definitely made me work.

but in the end, it was so very worth it.

just look at all her tiny sweetness.

after lots of itty-bitty babies in my studio, miss aubree lynn came to me with her adorable rolls and perfectly chubby cheeks and i melted.

sweet aubree- you are such a little dolly.

i could have snuggled this beautiful baby girl forever.

pure sweetness.

this beautiful little princess made me WORK!

she was not very interested in posing for her first portraits, but with patience (and a pacifier) we did it!

and oh…. wasn’t it worth it? such a gorgeous baby girl.

lovely little eliana had some of the most beautiful baby lips ever

and the sweetest big brother i’ve ever photographed.

this sweet baby boy is extra special to me….

he is my nephew, the new son of my younger brother and sister-in-law.

but i can say without any bias at all- he’s pretty perfect.

jacob and stephanie and their kids live in fresno.

since i didn’t have my normal studio set-up, we headed outdoors to capture a few images of the entire family with their newest addition.

such a sweet baby boy

this teeny tiny beauty arrived much earlier than expected at just 33 weeks along-

we were actually scheduled to take her mommy’s maternity portraits that weekend, but she arrived before we got the chance!

she was already a month old when she finally was able to come to my studio, and still just four little pounds- the smallest i’ve ever photographed.

sweet giordana- you are such a gift.
