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:

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!

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

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

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

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. 🙂

And my absolutely favorite of the shoot:

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

On yet another overcast – and very chilly – day in Cleveland, I photographed brothers Cooper, 6, and Finn, 1. Five years is a cute age difference, because the bigger sibling feels like a caretaker – and they really are in two totally different stages. Cooper is very loving and protective of Finn – minus some accidental pulls and shoves (he is 6, after all). Finn, poor guy, was not feeling so great but pulled through for our session – with some blanket-covered snuggles and time with his pacifier sprinkled throughout.

You’d never know he was sick, right?! Here, we did a sneaky pacifier trick – Cooper would let him have it for a few seconds, and then we’d do a countdown for him to pull it out for a couple quick frames. Worked like a charm!

Cooper, the budding quarterback, already trying to get little Finn interested in the game:

And some solo shots of Finn, in his glory, toddling around in the damp grass:

Lastly, Cooper showing off his new skateboarding skills (I think Tony Hawk has a new model for his kids’ line…):
