Hello, tiny

This sweetie was the answer to my model call for an outdoor newborn, and I’m so glad she was because her parents are SUPER nice! We met up at one of my new favorite spots for a session, Ashford Manor! If you’ve never been there, you HAVE to see it. The grounds are flat out stunning and the guys that run it are amazingly nice too. Anyway, This little tiny girl arrived sleepy but woke up while we were getting set up. Thank goodness mom and dad are good with bodily fluids, because she got them both with just about everything. We were patient though and finally she was out for good. I was able to get everything I wanted and a few bonus shots!

Another graduate!

You’d think that of all the times I’ve been to this girl’s house for photos, she’s remember me and I wouldn’t get the “Oh, you’re scary!” face for 20 minutes when I walk in.. but no. She flirts and smiles like a champ when mommy is holding her but if I look like I’m coming too close that smile vanishes! She’s now a Tales From the Crib graduate! Thank goodness we already have two more sessions on the calender or I’d be going through withdrawals. I need my dose of cute curly-headed baby! You can see her sitting up session, her heads up session and her newborn session!

Little boy, very blue

Okay, where on earth did those curls come from?!? His 7 month session and his 4 month session didn’t have those and of course his newborn session didn’t either!! We met up this morning for his session at Ashford Manor in Watkinsville. Have you ever been there? I hadn’t, and holy cow, I wish I had earlier! I can tell you, I’ve already looked at booking that location for my own wedding (eventually) and I plan on calling them up and begging them to the able to shoot some princesses there. It’s just begging for some little girls. That john-john from Southern Belles and Beaus is cute though! OH, and how is he ONE already? ::sniff sniff::

We then went quick quick over to her parent’s house just down the road because I wanted to do some sudsy baby shots and her mother had a washtub we could use! Well, no one notified this poor guy that he’d been signed up for this, and he was NOT happy with it at all. He went from unsure to VERY MAD in about 2.5 seconds. Poor thing. Cuddles from daddy fixed everything though, and he was down for a nap before I even got out of the driveway.

Princess in the pears

This sweetie’s mommy drove all over Athens, Winterville and Watkinsville looking for places for a session in some Bradford Pears. I LOVE the place she found. It was SO windy and cold that day that I was glad I brought my cloak with me to go over the dresses.Kept this girl a little warmer and smiley for just a biiiit longer.:)

Little Miss Happy

So, last time for this little sweetie’s session, she was sooo mad at us, and I swore to mom and dad that the next one would be different because she’d be so thrilled with being able to sit up. I’m not sure they believed me until I was leaving the day of this session. Thank goodness I was right (this time) and she was a lot more thrilled with us than last time. Check out her heads up session and her newborn session!

Pajama Jammy Jam

Oh, how I love this family. I see them at least twice every year and I just love them more and more every time. This year for their holiday photos they wanted a photos in front of the door like they do every time, but they also asked for something more fun and unique. I suggested a bed jumping in pajamas theme, which they all thought was pretty fun. Big sister sure is the best jumping, littlest brother was short a nap and so not into it, poor guy.

Oh, the cute.

Oh my goodness, this girl.  Check out her hair! They say they can’t do a thing with it. Who’d want to? Big brother’s eyes are amber colored, big sister’s are ice blue. She got a mix.:)Plus everyone knows my love affair with babies on beds! This family is SO awesome.  I hung out after the family photos on the porch for some fun talking about booger pancakes and some flying.
