Dover, New Philadelphia OH newborn + family photographer | anna 6 days new

World, meet Anna. When I first met her in November, she weighed in at a whopping 4 lbs and was only 6 days new. Pure perfection. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t harbor the thought of keeping her for myself. 😉 And can’t you just tell by the love oozing from Mom & Dad that she is so wanted and adored? I can’t stand it! And just for giggles, check out all of her expressions!! Seriously.

Dover, New Philadelphia OH baby, child + family photographer | annual Christmas tree minis

Some of my favorite photos of the year always come from the annual Christmas tree mini sessions I hold at McFadden’s Tree Farm. I love getting out of the studio to shoot outdoors for awhile. This year we had a lot of rain and reschedules and more rain, and I was beginning to wonder if we could ever pull them off. But even with the mud and the rain, I was once again blown away by my awesome clients!! I cannot wait until next year to do it all over again!! And my favorite couple shots… 😛 hahaha Seriously. I mean, how FUN are they?!

Dover, New Philadelphia OH newborn + family photographer | 9 days new adalyn

Meet Adalyn, 9 days new (well, back in October she was). 😉 I loved that her parents brought along a special blanket that I believe a great-grandma made. 🙂I think that she liked this purple set up best… what do you think? 😉

Dover, New Philadelphia OH newborn, sibling + family photographer | gydan 5 days new

This family. They have gorgeous babies. 🙂 Seriously, big sister has always been a beauty since she was born and now baby brother is equally as perfect! Gydan wanted to be awake for their sibling shots, but I did catch a blink. 😉 He was a dream for the entire session. Even when he was awake he was so calm and content… until he was done, and then he was, well, done. ha! I think my favorite shot this session was the black and white conversion of the sibling shot. SQUEAL! Yes I love it! I want to hang it on my studio wall… and they’re not even my babies. 😉 And this is how you always know when a baby is finished with you… 😉 He’s still cute even with the sad face…

Dover, New Philadelphia OH newborn photographer | brynn 4 days new

Ahhhhh teeny tiny, 4 days new Brynn. Good thing you are so stinkin’ adorable. This newborn little girl may have stole my heart the second she was carried into my studio, but she also put up quite a fight for sleep. 😉 We grabbed some awake shots of her and then I finally won and she fell asleep. I am absolutely in love with her little scrunchy face expressions!!!
