grace at 6 and 9 months
Portraits, Children, First Year > April 2, 2012

Doesn’t she just look like a little doll?!  It has been so fun to photograph Grace over the past year…she has already turned one and that post will follow but I had to catch you up on her earlier sessions first!   We’ve taken each of Grace’s sessions at her home which has the most beautiful light!  I always like to try and so some shots outside but the timing of Grace’s sessions made it a little more difficult to do so.  It was either too chilly or damp…and then when we got a day that we deemed tolerable we found that Grace HATED being outside!  We tried her everywhere and the unfamiliar yard was just too much for her then ;)

Grace’s mom always chooses the cutest outfits for Grace…very girly but not overwhelming.  And pink is most definitely Grace’s color!

Is there anything cuter on a little girl than ruffles on the tush ;)

At nine months, Grace had become more active  and was crawling everywhere!  I love noticing the changes in their actions each time I see them.  Grace was so much more outgoing and playful.   She was also donning more pink ruffles and this time added some girly pearls to complete her ensemble!

Can’t wait to share her one year session…….and it just so happens we got some of her outside!!!  Stay tuned :)

killian is one!

I think I have THE cutest nephews that ever existed.  They are my middle brother’s two boys and they could not be more different.  While big brother Rogan is a tornado that literally runs from one thing to another, this younger version is anything but.  Killian is quiet.  He is thoughtful.  He’s content and reserved.  But don’t let that fool you…he still has the Curry temper ;)  I love that he’s a snuggler since Rogan was not….from the day he was born, I have made it a goal to get Killian into climbing into my lap and taking a nap with me.  Is there anything better than a kid falling asleep in your arms?!  Killian and I have snuggled many afternoons on the couch while the rest of the family carried on without us :)  It’s been a joke that even with out snuggles, Killian would rather go to anyone else but Aunt Erin!  I’m not sure why but I swear, he picks Tim over me every time!  Now that he’s one, I’m thinking I’ll have to start bribing him for our naps!

Killin celebrated his birthday in January and we waited until February for it to warm up a bit to snag a few images outside.  Who knew if we had waited just a few more weeks, he could have been running around in shorts for his pictures!!!  He was just figuring out how to stand but had no desire yet to walk.  I’m actually wondering how that may change as he learns to keep up with his big brother!  I am in love with his chubby little legs and big blue eyes…and get a load of those incredible lashes!!!!

Much love to our sweet little Killian :)  Can’t wait to see all the new things you will learn and show us in the next year!

levi turns one!

Yes, I am still embarrassingly behind on the blog.  So much so that if I didn’t get this post up before leaving the house this morning I was going to punish myself with refinishing our hardwood floors…wait…I’ve been doing that for over a week already ;)  Sorry…back to the point.  LEVI!  Yes, this adorable little man turned one last summer and has already transformed into a blonde haired little man, walking and talking up a storm.  And just this past week he became a big brother!  So that’s where I’m headed this morning.  To visit Levi and family and photograph their newest addition!  But for now, Levi has the spotlight all to himself:

He was infatuated with his shadow :)  So cute!

Oh my goodness, he is so squishy :)  At church this past Sunday was when I first noticed his strawberry locks had turned into blonde curls and I kinda missed the baby  version of his hair;)

Yup, my favorite!  He was NOT  a fan of the grass….

What a sweet Birthday Boy!  I’ve heard he’s being a little “overly” helpful as he adjusts to life with his new brother and I’m looking forward to seeing this for myself…could be interesting!
