Cass Lake, Minnesota Wedding + Lifestyle Portrait Photographer
I don’t remember if I ever mentioned that I loooooove baby feet. Well. I do. Baby feet are the softest, gushiest, squishiest little bits.
Now, I love them even more! This little man’s grandma made him (and his older brother, when he was a newborn) beaded moccasins. I forgot to ask if they are in a traditional Cree pattern, or what they are beaded in… but they are completely loveable.
As was this little baby, Z.
Meet ZaZa
Look at her! You can smell that sweet, soft baby skin and sense all the mama love just from this image. I love capturing moments that are to be remembered. Posing and props are fun, but this. THIS is where the treasure of photography lies. It is a beautiful instant of newborn care, that a parent doesn’t want to forget.
The fact is, they just don’t stay tiny long enough.
But, here she is! The 13 days new baby girl, long awaited by two older sisters and an older brother. He said he doesn’t want to be a big kid yet, so we’ll just refer to him as a little boy who is a great brother to E! Mom and Dad, and Monty the dog are also enamored with this little darling.
Tell you what, our Lord gives and gives when it comes to His love for us. I am so thankful for this couple and their family of SIX! Tim and I have been mentored and loved on by these two for so many years. In high school, Tony was our youth leader, and Laurie the BEST youth leader’s wife. We’ve learned so much watching these guys live life. They are wonderful examples of living for Him. Raising a family for Him. And for them, I am grateful!
This was such a treat to spend the afternoon with these guys and get our kids (the boys!) together.
Welcome, too, to their newest addition. He was only 8 days old in these pictures… He’s adorable, and looking at mama, you’d NEVER guess she JUST had a baby! Go Babe!!!
Back in November, I had the opportunity to photograph this sharp looking family for their Christmas Card picture in a Christmas Mini Session. What fun! We were playing around with ornaments and Christmas decorations in front of my mom’s log cabin fireplace. It was SOOOOOOOOOOO cold out though, so we rushed around and snapped some keepers in front of a stand of pines. 🙂
Yesterday, I got to meet this sweet family.
The two girls are over 6 years apart, which was so fun, because big sister got to help out a lot with baby sister! This little seven month old was a total ham, and loooooves that she can sit up on her own! Her seven-year-old counterpart wanted to get over with everyone else’s photos so we could focus on her 🙂 Pretty mama and her Mr. were excellently flexible, and got some of the indoor shots they wanted before I forced them all outside… into snow, cold, and good lighting. Thanks you guys!!! Little baby girl Avery was obsessed with the grass and snow combo and didn’t want to go in when we were done!
This is our littlest man a couple weeks ago, for his one-month pictures.
Love him!
