The Page Family {Lifestyle Session}

When I first spoke with Kellea about the location of her lifestyle session with her husband and 8 week old son, we talked about a few beautiful outdoor locations but also discussed inside their home as a location possibility.

These images, once again, prove to me, that there is no better place for a new family to have their time together captured than inside their home.  I love the intimacy of these images.  Everyone is comfortable, happy...even sweet little Mister B.

Home is where the heart is.

Mister V - The First 5 Months {Birth & Lifestyle}

What I love most about being a birth & lifestyle photographer is being able to capture the story of a little human in the making with my camera.  And that is exactly what I've been able to do with sweet Mister V.  Included below are a few never before seen images on his birth day all the way up to our lifestyle session in his home last week.  He is growing so fast and is turning into such a handsome little man full of personality.  He melts my heart each and every time I have the honor of photographing him.

This, my friends, is what photography is all about.  For me, being able to capture a moment in time for my clients to hold dear and cherish for years to come is my passion and a privilege.  I get to create those images.  I get to become a part of my clients' lives in this amazing way.  Little ones grow up so fast.  One day they will have children of their own.  And Mister V's parents will have images like the ones below to look back on and use to reminisce about years past.  Being a photographer is so much more than taking pictures - it's about creating memories.  And it is my honor to do so.

May you always smile so willingly and love so deeply in 30 years as you do now, little one.  I'm looking forward to watching you grow into an amazing young man.

The Lane-Walsh Family {Portraits}

This is the second year I've had the honor of photographing this sweet little family for their Christmas cards.  I am always excited to see what they show up wearing because mom knows just how to pick out the right outfits!  My heart did a little flip when the two little ones jumped out of the car.  Could they seriously be any cuter?

I also had the pleasure of photographing Melody's amazing dad, Buddy, and his wife, Glenda, who are newlyweds!  These two lovebirds are such a fun couple and are deeply in love.  *swoon

I always have a great time with this beautiful family during their sessions and look forward to photographing them in 2012!

Lindsey {Portraits}

It wasn't that long ago that I had the opportunity to photograph Lindsey, husband Josh, and their two four-legged "children."  (That shoot was to die for!)  This time around, Lindsey decided she would go it alone, as she will be using her portraits as a surprise for someone in her family this Christmas.  (Shhh!)

Recently having finished her very first marathon, she showed up to her session looking amazing!  And thankfully, she was up for anything...including lying in the middle of the street...because her images turned out spectacular!

I want to thank Lindsey for supporting my Images for a Cure campaign, in which 100% of her session fee was donated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation!  During our session, I learned that her grandma is a breast cancer survivor.  Lindsey's donation will see to it that in the near future all women will be cured of this disease!

 

Kim & Marvis {Family Portraits}

Meet Kim and her son, Marvis!  I must admit - at first, I wasn't sure just how into this session Marvis was going to go.  But after the first 5 minutes, two things were clear: Kim and Marvis have an amazingly awesome bond...and Marvis is the sweetest, most fun 13-year-old I have ever met!  He was quick to get in on helping me pick out some poses for his mom and him - and all of them were great!  (New Jennifer Leigh Photography assistant in the making?)

Enjoy a sneak peek into the awesomeness that took place during this shoot.  And thank you to this dynamic duo for supporting my Images for a Cure campaign, in which 100% of their session fee was donated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation!
