Introducing Baby Tessa

I'm very excited to introduce baby Tessa Evelyn to all of you!  Over the weekend, I was able to visit with the Norris's and capture their first family photos together since Tessa was born just a week ago.  Of course, big brother Caleb stole the show and made me laugh out loud many many times!  He's so proud of his baby sister and did an awesome job holding her.  Here are a few of my favorites...

Look who's 3!!

Well, it's that time of year again....Bella's birthday!!  This year Bella turns 3 (wow, where has the time gone!?) and she shared her birthday party with her best friend Emma who also turned 3 this year.  I can't believe little Bella is 3 years old already. It seems like just yesterday that I was taking her 6 month old pictures and now she's grown into this beautiful little lady. Bella and Emma had a Dora themed party with lots of balloons, friends and fun at the park.  Here is a sneak peek of a few of my favorites....

Baby Kingston & Baby Ryker | Cousins!!

This weekend I not only got to take Baby Kingston's newborn pictures, but I also got to meet Baby Ryker and take his pictures too.  Ryker was born one day before his cousin Kingston and both are just way too cute!! Both of these little boys did such a great job for the camera.  Of course, Bella and Hunter (Kingston's big sister and brother) were there to enjoy the session also and I must say...they make a great team when it comes to being the best big siblings to Kingston.  :)

Here's Baby Kingston....

And the cousins... Baby Kingston and Baby Ryker

Introducing Baby McCracken!

I've never been more excited about a photo shoot in my life!! I had the great experience of capturing the birth of my dear friends' baby being born into this world yesterday.  It was absolutely beautiful and Lorie did an amazing job!  Everything was just perfect and I am very thankful that I was lucky enough to experience this magical moment.  Lorie and Jamie welcomed a perfect little baby boy and here are some of my favorite shots from the day...

{Summer Vacation}

Who doesn't love getting away for a few weeks on summer vacation!??  I used to LOVE spending a few weeks away (usually with my grandma and grandpa) during the summer and getting away from home.  I got to meet three GREAT kids who are doing that exact thing right now.  Sam, Ty and Jess are visiting from Georgia and their Aunt Meghan decided to have some pictures taken while they are here.  We wandered around the Cotter area and got some great shots.  These kids were a lot of fun and I'm glad I was able to hang out with them for a little bit.  Here are a few of my favorite shots...

 

 

{lucas's FIRST birthday!!}

Over the weekend I got to take pictures for Lucas's first birthday.  We got to play with balloons, rocks and water, but the leaves were his favorite. Haha!  He was such a good boy and smiled a lot for the camera.  This little guy is so sweet...he made this photo shoot so much fun.

 

 

Savannah Lynn

Meet Savannah Lynn.  I had the privilege of meeting this precious little girl on Sunday and she stole my heart!!  You might remember her mommy, Katelynn, from a maternity session I did with her not too long ago (you know, the one with the horses!?)  Savannah was such a little trooper for her photo shoot...she just looked around with those big eyes and even gave a few poses.  I'm pretty sure her mommy and daddy have a little model on their hands!!
