This cute little baby is so sweet and mellow. He’s just a “go with the flow kind of guy” (complete opposite from my little ones, but I love them). He’s quite the ladies man too. Yeah, he’s got a thing for the ladies and the ladies have a thing for him. Poor little man wasn’t feeling too well when we took the photos, but he’s normally a smiley, flirtatious little dude. He may be sweet and mellow now, but I’m guessing his parents are going to have to keep a close eye on him when he’s older. :)

His parents just totally adore him. As they should.

Here’s just a quick sneak peak…

I love this one. He’s not even 10 months yet and can’t stand on his own, but with a little help from the wall, his arms out for balance, and some concentration and sheer determination, he was glowing with accomplishment. Too cute.

I love hazelnut groves. They make the best setting for photos. I like hazelnut coffee creamer too. Oh yeah, and nutella. Wow, hazelnuts are great!

And a few pics to share…

Stunning. Pure and simple.

Take a beautiful and loving family, put them in a gorgeous setting with fabulous evening light, add in a well coordinated wardrobe, and throw in a photographer who loves what they do, and you end up with some simply stunning photos.

I had the pleasure, and it was truly a pleasure, to photograph my friend Jackie and her boys. What a fun little session we had. I think it was only about 45min long and so much fun! Each of her boys, husband included, have such personalities, and they’re all different. Dad is super sweet and you can just tell he’s gaga over Jackie and their insanely cute kids. Their oldest son kept suggesting different compositions and posed like a perfect model. I turned him bright red when I said “If only I were 8 years old again.” Their middle son cracked me up. I could create a separate blog posts with 20 images of him – all with different expressions. And their baby has the sweetest most gentle soul and eyelashes that could sweep the floor.

This needs to be a canvas. A big canvas. I just love how the background looks like its wrapped around them.

What mom wouldn’t adore a photo of her four boys.

Dad was doing a funny dance behind me and the kids were busting up.

Gorgeous.

Photographer’s trick: let boys run at the beginning of a session. Its like taking your puppy for a long walk before attempting to groom him. :)

You know when you see a couple and you can just tell that they are truly and deeply in love? Yeah, that.

I’m not sure which photo I like more. :)

Another one of my favs. I had a hard time deciding whether to post in color or B&W.
