I love photographing children, love it. But teenagers are in their own category, and I have so much fun on shoots with them (even though they usually make me feel old; when did that happen??). Teenagers/high school students have the right blend of confidence and, at least for the one hour they’re with me, discipline. They will do what I tell them and look great doing it, but they also come up with their own ideas, which are usually pretty awesome…

For example, Blaise picked our location, and it was perfect. Go Blaise!

Check him out:

And I love this close-up:

One last shot, one of my favorites:

We also included Blaise’s 13-year-old sister, Mia, in the shoot – photos of her and the two of them to come.

Thanks for the great shoot and awesome location, Blaise!

Sydney is no stranger to my camera. Here she is at 2.5 weeks, 5 months, 8 months, and almost one year.

We did a fun New Year’s holiday card this time, but that I’ll save for another post. Here’s a peek at some of my favorite shots of Syd’s fall session. It’s so warm and cozy, especially that family snuggle shot…

I hope everyone had a happy, yummy Thanksgiving! I’m still in a food coma, I think…

Ben is such a happy-go-lucky guy. During our last photo shoot, when he was 10 months, he just grinned and sat contentedly. This time, he braved the cold and enjoyed watching the ducks and picking up leaves. 🙂 And he posed so happily with his adorable hat and blazer (maybe it was the wild kids taking a blow-up boat out on the pond that had him so entertained):

And my favorite family shots:

Brian, Ben, and Ali

Actually, this might be my favorite. How cute is this moment?

Ali, Brian, and Ben

Happy holiday weekend, everyone!

We almost canceled this shoot because little Rowan had a bit of a cold, but I’m so happy we went through with it! These three were so much fun and ridiculously adorable… and other than a sniffly nose, Rowan was a champ! They have spunky personalities and were great models on their own and together. Couldn’t have asked for better!

The kids played on the beach (still can’t get over that there’s a beach in Cleveland) in the fall sun… so beautiful!

Rowan, Maeve, and Colin

I feel like you can’t not smile at the sight of these three happy siblings:

Colin, Rowan, and Maeve

We also did a “precious parts” series of little Rowan. It must’ve been a funny scene, us trying to get him to show off his little body parts, but he was a great sport! I loved his mom’s idea of having him hold a toy that he likes – illustrates a bit of his personality. 🙂

I haven’t seen Jack since he was 7 months old (almost exactly a year ago). This year, at 19 months, he’s turned into a kid! – running around, laughing, pulling his wagon, attempting to play football with his dad, and very, very attached to his Elmo.  He still has a super cute smile and the softest, fuzziest hair you just want to rub.

Here’s Jack with his parents, Katie and Josh:

Josh, Jack and Katie

And toting around his friend Elmo and an empty wagon:

Jack and Elmo

Chilling and grinning in the wagon:

Jack

I had to include this one, too.  It amuses me. 🙂

Jack

Merry *second* Christmas, Jack! So fun to follow little ones as the time passes… and a bit sad considering how quickly it all goes.

These brothers are so, so cute and fun. Alexander is 3 and of course full of energy. He could’ve bounced on his mini trampoline for the entire session, had we not wanted some other shots! It reminded me of when our buddy Danni would jump on our bed for hours, yelling, “I’m jumping! I’m jumping!” Tireless, those guys!

Here’s the bouncing boy:

Alexander

And his 6-month-old brother Oliver having fun on the swing:

We managed to get Alexander to sit still for a few minutes to pose with his brother:

And lastly, the boys snuggle with their beautiful mom:

I didn’t even realize how many 15-ish-month-olds I photographed in Cleveland until I started organizing my shoots. I love this age! They’re competently and comfortably walking (or, in Alexander‘s case, running), so animated and interactive.

I can’t stand Claire’s cuteness. And that Anthropologie sweater… to die for.

Just look at this huge grin!

Claire

Isn’t she edible? (Her mom said she hadn’t done this pout in months – brought it out for the photo shoot. :-))

Claire

Lastly, I love myself some mama-baby moments… and Katy and Claire are so, so sweet together.

Katy and Claire

Such a great shoot on a sunny fall day with two beautiful girls!

Ella is no stranger to my camera – I’ve photographed this munchkin several times, but this was her last shoot as an only child! New baby brother or sister is due in January, so we had one more opportunity to take Ella’s photos before the little one’s arrival. And we finally got mom Laura and dad Ryan in some shots!!

Here’s Ella at 1 year, 7 months, and 4 months.

First, we took some holiday shots of Ella with a giant nutcracker and some other Christmas friends. She makes me laugh. 🙂

Ella

Unsure about this first snowfall…

Ryan, Ella, and Laura

But still looking so adorable…

Laura, Ella, and Ryan

This last photo is just too funny… Even though she loved being out in the snow during our shoot last winter, the only way Ella would smile outside this time around was if Ryan put her on his head (not shoulders) – and Laura cracks me up in this one, too. Super cute – and kind of random – family shot, I think.

Laura, Ella, and Ryan

Next time I see Ella and family, they will have one new member! So exciting. 🙂

I’m back in FL after a whirlwind week and a half in Cleveland – my busiest trip yet! I’m so grateful for all of my wonderful Cleveland clients. 🙂

I have been waiting to photograph this little munchkin since we had to reschedule our September shoot. Rachel is amazing… gorgeous, sweet, laid-back… so great. Her parents Lauren and Andy were awesome to work with as well! We had a very chilly day, but Rachel was a trooper and enjoyed watching the geese in Wade Lagoon (and playing with the leaves):

Rachel

Cozying up with her parents:

Rachel, Lauren and Andy

And lastly, I’m obsessed with this one… Is this girl not a model? Those eyes, the chin dimple, the expression…

Rachel

Happy almost first birthday, Rachel!

Wow has Alexander changed since I photographed him in February! He’s a walking (more like running) machine, loves to dance, and is still so adorable. After a snowy morning in Cleveland, we went in town to have some very chilly toddler photography fun (i.e. non-stop)! Alexander thought it was a game of tag, so we just tried to keep up – helped keep us from freezing, I think. 🙂

Alexander, Brad and Christina

And my absolutely favorite of the shoot:

Alexander

Thanks for another great session, Alexander, Christina and Brad! 🙂
