Faith Like a Child

This is one of my favorite songs ever, by Jars of Clay. I have been dying to use it as a title :) When I started putting together a montage for my portfolio of children's portraits, I knew I could finally use it!

These kids are A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E!!!!! You might recognize them from the precious family shots of J & M's maternity portraits and newborn portraits. These are random shots I got during both of those sessions. They were perfect models, as you can see! They were not camera shy!! It made it sooo much fun!!! But more that how sweet and beautiful they are, they each already have a strong and precious faith. It shines in their eyes, you'll see. But that's what happens when we truly trust our lives to our Creator, an unexplainable peace and joy consume us, and it is evident to everyone. It's that "it" someone has that makes you realize they are different in such a good and enviable way. Enviable if you don't have it but they make you realize you want it. These kids got IT. Love'em!!





I loved how they enjoyed trying on all the hats at their mom's maternity portrait session! These were so fun!




Then they found ducks and were so excited!!!


They were just camera hams at baby sister's newborn portrait session. More to come :)

Beautiful Baby Girl A!

Goodness! I was so anxious and excited as I waited for this precious baby girl to be born! Her mother's maternity portraits were so fun, I knew the newborn portraits would be too! I don't know who was more ready for this precious baby to arrive... me or her mama.  LOL, Just kidding! Nothing compares to a mama's wait, but I sure felt it too!!!

Thank you J & M for sharing this precious time in your life with me and allowing me to capture the moments for you = ) Hope you love these as much as I loved shooting them!!!
