On yet another beautiful, warm, sunny day in Cleveland this past trip, I photographed adorable 16-month Makayla. She is such a sweet girl, with the silkiest hair and awesome cheeks. 🙂

I haven’t seen this little man since he was 2.5 weeks old (well, in person – I’ve been following his adorableness on Facebook), and he is just as edible as he was then, if not more so. Brody is a happy, happy boy and absolutely scrumptious.



Happy belated first birthday to Brody (and Sarah and Mike!)!

When we did this crew’s session last fall, we got a near-frigid, wet day in Cleveland – but 15-month-old Alexander had no problem with the chill, and we had a really fun shoot anyway! Now, Alexander has a 5-month-old baby brother, Julian, and we got a beautiful, unseasonably warm October day!








Can’t wait to watch Julian and Alexander interacting and having brotherly fun together in shoots to come!

I met Madden when he was just a few weeks old, and it’s really crazy to watch these little ones turn from squirmy, tiny babies into kids, talking, running around, and understanding so much I can’t even handle it. Every stage is so cute and fun, and Madden is such a great model – putting the pressure on for his baby brother or sister, who’s coming in just a few months!






And lastly, one of my favorite photo moments ever:

Can’t wait to meet the new addition to the family in the spring!

I’m loving the newborn fest that’s happening these days. Photographing newborns is such an amazing experience – meeting these babies when they’ve been out in the world for only days or a month, and seeing the elation (exhaustion, maybe, but the elation always overpowers) of the new parents… I love it!
Maren Vera is an absolutely gorgeous girl, and although she took some coaxing – with patient rocking by her parents, she is a beautiful little model.






Welcome to the world, Maren! And congratulations Autumn & Mark!

I am in love with little Wesley. Such a handsome, cooperative newborn model – and, let’s be honest, snuggling newborns as we get them into cozy, photo-ready positions is one huge perk of the job. His big sister Addie is so adorable and already takes such good care of her baby brother. So cute to watch. And we got another perfect-weather day in Cleveland (finally, an entire week straight of beautiful, sunny, outdoor-shooting weather!) – just the right temperature for tiny Wesley to sleep comfortably and some crisp leaves to make for a very fall-like shoot!









Congratulations to Amber, Matt, and Addie on their scrumptious new addition!

Since Jess is in the hospital right now delivering the newest addition to their family, I thought it was fitting to post a preview of her last-minute maternity shoot from last week. Jess was looking amazing at full term, probably in part due to keeping up with their adorable, rambunctious 2-year-old Max!





Thinking of Jess and family today and can’t wait to hear their great news – and hopefully meet the new little man in November!

This shoot combined a few of my favorite things in family sessions – little, adorable siblings, Rocky River Park on a beautiful day, cute outfits, and big, big smiles. 🙂 Caroline, Matty, and Ava are super sweet and packed with energy, not to mention really, really cute… so much fun to photograph.

I met these two when Jack was just one week old. He has grown into such a happy, handsome little boy – and Haley is a proud big sister. She practiced her modeling for me, and Jack showed off his grin and standing skills… Basically, the two were great subjects!






Looking forward to seeing Haley and Jack (and their parents!) again at their aunt’s wedding in November!!

More Ella – and Jack! I love these two. My Cleveland visits don’t quite feel complete unless I’ve had some time photographing Ella, and now her little brother Jack, too. They are just so adorable – Add mom Laura’s amazing outfit selections, and I can’t take it.



Obsessed with Ella’s Toms…



🙂 Hopefully more Ella & Jack photos to come for the holidays!
