I’ve said before how much I love photographing siblings, and Spencer and Morgan were no exception. They made each other comfortable, brought out the other one’s silly side, and even got on each other’s nerves (just a little – good time for solo portraits!) – all of which make for great photos.
Here’s the giggling duo:

They were great models on their own, too:

And some more sibling fun:

Like Madden, Brennan, and other friends, Rafi turned one this August. I last photographed him when he was 6 months old, and although he’s definitely growing up, Rafi is still such a sweet-tempered, snuggly little guy… and is still rocking his big brown locks. 🙂
The boy loves snuggling up with his parents…

Look at these cheeks, that amazing skin, those eyes…!

And here’s the adorable fam:

Happy, happy 2nd birthday to Eli!

Here he was last year, just a baby, turning one:

And here is the grown-up boy, sporting an amazingly adorable grin, serenading his mom and dad, blowing bubbles, sharing a family hug, and loving the underdog on the swings…

The singer-songwriter and his family band:

Thanks for another great session, Brett and Stef! Eli is crazy cute, and I hope he has the best second birthday!

Jack was born in the middle of our Cleveland visit, and I photographed him and his adoring family about a week later. Jack is an absolutely adorable newborn, and his sister Haley is such a princess and not afraid of the camera. While we waited for Jack to get cozy, Haley was an excellent model, posing proudly in her princess chair:

And here she is again, showing off her gorgeous locks and big green-brown eyes.

Jack did eventually fall asleep. Check out the little prince:

Getting love from his big sister and dad…

…and smooches from his mama:

And one last shot. The little man almost crawled out of this basket at one week!

I love photographing siblings, especially rambunctious tiny ones! Ryan is a 4.5-year-old little man, huge “Brownies” fan, and a ham for the camera. I love hearing kids say, “Can you get a picture of me doing this?” His only frustrations during our shoot were when little peanut 2.5-year-old sister Kate would somehow get in the way of his photo or activity plans. Kate is tiny but fiesty; such a sweet little girl but also a tough cookie. They are also super adorable – he’s got an amazing head of red hair and a great, big smile, and she has crystal-clear blue eyes and the most delicate white-blond hair. I love these two!
Check them out, sharing a squeeze…

Can you just see the adorable mischievousness in their eyes?

I love this setting:

…and this one:

Here’s Kate, worried she found a bug, and Ryan, taking a break on a branch:

And just a couple more shots:
They were dancing, barefoot on the beach. Amazing…

…and then Ryan was done. 🙂

Ella is one of my “long-time” baby clients – “long-time” is a relative term when you’re working with a one-year-old’s entire life span :-), but I photographed her at 4 months in the crispy fall leaves and then at 7 months in the snow. Now we had a summertime shoot by the water, and Ella loved getting her feet – and whole dress – wet.
Check her out – in a mini “trash-the-dress” session:

Playing in the sand:

And then we had some time on the playground. The girl loves to swing!

Happy belated first birthday to little miss Ella! In her next shoot, she will be in the role of big sister! 🙂

How is it that every trip to Cleveland seems to fly by faster than the last one? We’re heading to Boston today, and while I’m excited to spend 10 days there, I have been loving our time in Cleveland and am not ready to have to go whole days on end without seeing E. 😦 I’ll post some E shots from this visit soon, but for now, I have some preview photos from Brennan’s one-year session.
I last photographed Brennan on a snowy February morning when he was seven months old. It’s amazing how in a few short months, they turn from babies to toddlers. With his long curly locks and toothy smile, he looks so much more grown up these days. We had a fun outdoor shoot on a beautiful morning.
I love this moment…

And some more snuggles for his mama:

Getting a push from his dad:

One more shot – the handsome boy showing off his adorable smile:

See you soon, Cleveland! Will post many more from this trip’s sessions in the days to come.

Little Brian is one of my long-time subjects. Now two and a half, I first met and took some shots of him when he was just about six weeks old. Here he is last fall, and here he is with his adorable cousins Cadence and JT in February. I’ve been hearing about his other cousins, almost-two-year-old Amelia and five-year-old Nora, for quite some time, and I finally got to meet them and photograph the three together last week. Although we were hit with a torrential downpour for about half an hour, we had a great time at the most beautiful gardens and the weather cleared enough for us to get plenty of shots of the gorgeous kids.
Check out these models…
Amelia:

Nora:

and Brian:

Nora giving Brian some love:

And making silly faces:

Sisterly tickles:

One last shot of the three on a swing together (Amelia wasn’t thrilled about it…):

Last week, I met 20-month-old Tommy and his parents, Charity and Jim, for a session in the very warm, sunny weather Cleveland was having last week. Luckily, the evening sun was not too harsh, and we had some time outside doing a lot of Tommy’s favorite activities – riding his bicycle, playing with trucks, examining the tiny crab apples in the grass, and kicking balls around. For this preview, though, I’m going to focus just on the session’s little moments…
Here’s Tommy on the go:

He stopped for a second or two to smile with his parents:

And one last shot… I love father-son matching!
