Cute and Precious Gift : A Baby | Cass Lake – Bemidji MN Newborn Photographer | Amy Kate Photography Orange Basket Baby Photo

Newborn Photographer in Bemidji MN Minnesota Newborn PhotographerAKP Newborn Photographer MN MN Newborn Baby Photos Baby Lifestyle PhotosThis lovely newborn baby girl had some of her first photos when she was just around a week old. She was beautifully alert, precious, and didn’t want to leave her sweet mama’s side. She was nursing, and wanting to be held quite a bit, which made her little pumpkin-of-a-self suuuuuper cute. I loved shooting at her sweet little back rolls, those tiny fingers and toes… Ah! She was so special to get to spend some time with!

Family Fall Photography | Fabulous Finding Fun and Full Foliage For Fotos. (or something like that)

The colors of Autumn are in full swing here in Northern MN. So, we had this family over to Grace Lake, near Cass Lake, MN to take some family photos near the lake. We got some pops of red, orange, yellow, green, and brown. They meandered from the hill with pines down to the narrow sandy beach on Grace Lake. It was the perfect setting for an afternoon photo session.

Here’s one quick one from this good day!

Handmade Beaded Baby Moccasins | MN Newborn Photographer Canadian/Oklahoma boy born in Montana

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.

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!!!
