The P family and I met for our third year of photos in a row back in October. I cannot believe how big the kids have gotten and yet how it doesn’t feel like it had been a year since I had seen them. The kids were adorable running around in the side yard and I love seeing their personalities in these photos. I am always strictly forbidden to share images until after the cards have gone out so I am pretty sure now being January 3 that I am safe! 😉
When the W. family booked a session with me this fall, I knew that there were absolutely no worries to be had or instructions to be given. Every single session we have done together, they have brought their A+++ game. And they did not disappoint. 🙂 Miss L. is a year bigger now – hard to believe she was only a few days old when we first met (although technically she was still in her mommy’s belly when we first did photos!) But the family has remained beautiful inside and out. Love these guys!

My busy weekend ended this past Sunday with a visit to the S family. We did holiday photos last year as well as newborn photos earlier this year. This time it was back for more fall photos. Although I am not sharing any of the family photos now, I will definitely be doing it later – they were so gorgeous with the golden yellow of the leaves! (Have I mentioned I love New England fall?!?!) It was so great to see now only how big sister had grown over the year but how baby H. was no longer a squishy newborn but instead a beautiful super happy almost seven month old. We had a gorgeous day to work with and the girls did so so well!! I swear, you cannot look at these photos and NOT smile!! 🙂
I first met the P family last year when we did some photos down at the lighthouse in Jamestown. This year we met at their beautiful new house for just some quick shots of miss M. and her big four-pawed brother, Ollie (and a very few family shots). Although the weather was not ideal, the rain did hold off a bit to allow us to get outside for photos. I cannot believe how big M. has gotten – she is so much more big girl than little now. And Ollie? Well he’s pretty much the same. 😉 I had such a great time visiting with them – I think I stayed and talked for at least 45 minutes after we were done with M and her mom! M. sang songs for us, got married to a prince, danced like a ballerina and showed off some of her gymnastics moves – all AFTER I had put the camera away. All in all, a great Sunday morning!
This last shot was on a total whim. I was packed up and walking to the door when I glanced to my right and saw this. I just HAD to drop my bag, get out the camera again and snap a shot. Mr. Ollie looks *so* regal in this photo. I just LOVE it! 🙂
Although we did big sister’s four year old photos back in August, Bryleigh had a few more weeks to bake! After she decided to wait a few extra days and be an October baby, I headed out to do her newborn session last week. She was absolutely gorgeous with beautiful dark blue eyes and blonde hair. And she was a great sleeper for me too, though she did give me a few minutes of eye contact as well. And like most siblings I encounter, this big sister was not the hugest fan of a new small baby, but even the most hesitant can usually be convinced to lay still for some beautiful photos, which we most definitely got. We even got dad involved in a few shots!! Yay dad! 😉 It was so great seeing you, W family!! Best of luck with your move in a few weeks!!!
