i got to hang out with lucas last weekend for his one year photos. he was most definitely having a daddy day. he needed to either be held by dad or have some part of him touching dad. i have a sweet series of pictures of him where you only see dad’s arm or leg. i think one of my favorite parts of taking photos is getting to see the games that people play w/ their kids. lucas’s parents had several tricks that he thought were hilarious (see “baby on your head” below).
here are a few faves from a photo day that i did in poulsbo last weekend. it was really warm out but i managed to find a few shady spots w/ these cuties.
i had this idea that i was going to take newborn pics of gus really early so that he was still really tiny. well, turns out he was over ten pounds when he was born and mom was in labor for about forty hours. needless to say, mom needed a little recovery time so i got to meet him last week when he was almost three weeks old. the sleepy, snuggly baby part worked out in the end- it’s just that this newborn has some yummy chunks and rolls.
even though she fought it a bit in the beginning, sofia finally made my dreams of a snuggly, sleepy newborn come true. you should have seen her when we put her down on the fur- she all but melted like butter. her mom told me sofia had her dad’s feet and i didn’t realize how right she was until i saw them side by side.
i got to meet brecken last weekend at just twelve days old. it’s always fun to get to do maternity pics and then newborn pics. he was such a mellow roaster but, per usual, or so it seems lately- he was wide awake the whole time except for the last five minutes. i always have visions of sleeping newborns and then picture day comes and they are awake for the longest stretch ever. oh well, lucky for him he’s cute awake too. plus he’s got some pretty good chub potential.
since the last time that i saw tiny baby matteo, he has gained some sweet chub that has earned him the affectionate nickname of “gordo” by his mom. they were back in town from switzerland visiting grandma so we got to take some more pictures. i love the first three of mom and alicia that we got to take before baby brother woke up.
i got to meet up with hudson again. we took some pics of her by the cool wall of pictures again but this time there was no laying around- she was checking them out and rolling all over. she has this great smile and does this funny little scrunch of her nose. i love getting little things like favorite blankies in pictures.
i got to hang out at the visitors center again last sunday, this time w/ these two cuties. i had sort of forgotten how much of a character kate was and it was my first time meeting ms claire. she had decided the night before our photoshoot to start walking (at ten months!) so that was a nice little challenge.
i got to meet this little chunk last weekend. she goes by hampton, is only eight weeks old and is rumored to not be missing any lunches. she is known on the street as lil sis. also representing the cute factor was big sis sedona. another day, another adorable baby for this family.
i got to meet this little bug last weekend. we had the whole murphy’s law thing working- you know, the one where the baby doesn’t nap on picture day? she was pretty tired but luckily for us, we were able to keep bringing it back around. how cute is that quilt her grandma made for her? and her dog molly? super cute.
