Nolan is one of my regulars – So much fun to see a family every few months… watch the baby steps (literally).

Since Nolan’s almost-one-year shoot was too summery for a holiday card feel, we met again in November to capture the season… and to finally get some family photos!

Here’s another of the trio that I love – they’re so happy (even whilst fighting colds):

Love the sheer excitement in this one. Why do babies love being scared so much?! (Or am I just projecting because I know being tossed in the air would freak me out…?)

His eyes are ridiculous! Like a crystal ball or something – They’re very magical.

Last one of the little guy munching on some bark… 🙂 Doesn’t he look like he knows he’s doing something he shouldn’t be…?

Merry almost Christmas, Nolan, Kari, and Kevin!

I still haven’t posted from some of November’s Cleveland shoots, so I’m trying to catch up!

Evan turned one in late October, just a couple of weeks before our session, and he is scrumptious. He’s the cousin of Ben, whom you may recognize from a recent post and a couple others. Evan, like his cousin Ben, has an awesome personality and was a great model (even though he kept yawning – and he had just woken up from a nap! I’ll try not to take it personally, Evan!!). He was so relaxed and easy-going and let us traipse around town, posing at different spots. And to top it all off, we were pretty sure we heard a first word: “Ball!”

So cute:

And having fun with his parents:

One last shot – I love this one of Evan and Stacey:

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:

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

Happy holiday weekend, everyone!

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!
