so cute | folsom children’s photographer

Do you think as a mom it’s possible to ever grow tired of hearing how adorable your child is? I honestly don’t think so, but if I were to ask an expert, I would ask {T’s} mommy because I know she must get told how stinkin’ cute her little boy is all day long! I know I said it probably over 100 times during our session. Every grin, smirk, and interaction we had left me saying, “He is soooo cute!” And he really is! I’ve had the privilege of photographing {T} several times over the past year and I honestly didn’t think he could get any cuter than the first time we met, but he keeps proving me wrong with each session we have. Don’t you agree?

happy birthday | folsom infant photographer

When this little gal showed up for her one year portrait session I got so excited because I knew that I had the perfect backdrop and chair to match her adorable spring outfit. And I love that Mom also brought along her older sister’s dress that she wore when she was {A’s} age. What a special way to document her big day!

Mom–I had a great time with you and your beautiful family today! I hope you love your sneak peek!

we all scream for ice cream | folsom children’s photographer

I get all giddy when a client is willing to do something a little different. Though I absolutely love working in the studio, when a mom suggests doing something more edgy I get really excited. I love being able to get creative (or even a little messy) with a session and this Tuesday we did just that. When Mom said it was okay to spoil the boys’ dinner with an ice cream appetizer, I knew it would be an awesome shoot. But how could it be anything but awesome with these two cuties in front of my lens?

And yes, we did get some traditional shots for the relatives. But I really love these ones that tell a story. And just look at those eyes! I have a feeling that these little guys will get out of many situations throughout their lives by their adorable puppy dog eyes alone. I know they have me wrapped around their little fingers!
Mom–thank you again for such a wonderful afternoon. I have so many more great images that I just can’t wait to edit. I’ll let you know as soon as your gallery is up!

cutie pie | folsom baby photographer

If you look up “cutie pie” in the dictionary (that is, if it were an actual word that was really in the dictionary), I’m sure you’d find these images of six month old {E}. That’s exactly the phrase that comes to mind when I think of this sweet little girl. Those chubby arms and legs, those big brown eyes, and those tiny, adorable two teeth. Cutie pie.

Mom–I had a great time hanging out with you and {E} yesterday. You both were so much fun to be around and are the reason why I love my job. I hope you love your sneak peek of your little cutie pie.

finger paint | sacramento children’s photographer

Paint…check. Sand….check. Water…check. Toddler boy willing and ready to get messy for the sake of photography? You bet!

I had a great time meeting up with {Z} for his two year old session this week. We decided to meet at Artbeast, a local children’s art studio in downtown Sacramento. It proved to be the perfect setting with all the bold colors and fun activities for kids. I just love these images of {Z}–especially the last one with paint and water all over his face. It’s difficult to get two year olds to sit still for formal portraits at this age, so I think this is the perfect place for toddlers. I’m all about creative locations for children’s photography and I think Artbeast is one of my new favorites.
