My sweet baby cousin

So, you ask, where have I been? I've been entertaining children (my own), cleaning for guests and playing with Sweet Baby Gavin. Gavin is my baby cousin. His Mommy is my first cousin. My Dad's older sister's daughter. We don't get to see each other very often and when we do see each other, it's never for long enough (in my humble opinion). 

I feel so honored to have been given the opportunity to take Gavin's very first professional portraits. I actually wiped tears from my eyes as I processed these pictures. Seeing his Mommy with him was very touching for me. Seeing him with his Mommy and Aunt was even more touching.

Here is Gavin with his family (minus Daddy who was at home). I know that my cousin does not really want to be plastered on my blog but she has to deal with it. I love her and I want everyone to see what a beautiful Mommy she is (forgive me, C?)
I love this collage!

I think that this is one of my favorites! I won't tell you what they were laughing about!

Sweet, sweet cowboy! 
Gavin lives out of state so I won't see him again for awhile. I can hardly wait to see him again!

 

Lovin' Natural light

I had a rare Sunday session today. No, I don't usually book sessions on Sunday so don't get any bright ideas. Haha! This was an exception for an old friend. Her sweet hubby only has one weekend day off and Sunday is it. These are family pictures and they have an elementary aged child so you understand.

The boys (all three) were so well behaved. I think that it was painless for everyone involved. I, personally, loved getting some more natural light shots. It was an easy session for me. I didn't have to pack up my lights, or any props. I just grabbed my camera and we were ready to go.

Here's a sneak peek from your session. I hope that you love them as much as I do! Enjoy! The rest will be up tomorrow!

Look! Everyone is smiling!


Does it get any sweeter?

Look at those eyes!

Watch out, girls! These are going to be a couple of heartbreakers!
