Lucy Freels Newborn {Brewster}

One of the parts of my job that is probably my favorite is getting to share people’s most memorable days.  No matter if it’s a wedding day or one of a newborn’s first few outings I get to be there and I don’t take that for granted.  Getting to meet a brand new little person that is just starting to figure out the world and getting used to life is amazing.

Lucy was incredibly sweet and so content.  I love that her family wanted to keep things simple and neutral.  That idea keeps the focus on the innocence and perfect features of this little girl and there is nothing better than baby details.  Not only is Lucy one of my favorite baby names but this one is extra special because she is named after her great grandma, which just makes it even better.  We of course had to include the proud big brother,  and even if he doesn’t quite know how great it is to have a sister I’m sure he will figure that out very soon!

Gebbers Family {Brewster}

Since this winter seems to be never ending, I'm going to start showcasing some of the highlights of the fall and maybe even the summer.  This family session was only a couple minutes away from my house and I absolutely love the location that Abbie found for us.

  Being surrounded by rivers makes it possible to have water views and backgrounds in almost every possible location that I use. That is one of the unique aspects of where I live that I just can't get enough of.  Plus, we get 300 days of sun a year, which I take full advantage of.  Now most of the time that means warm sun and less grey days.  However, today is a grey, dreary looking day that is really trying to be a stereotypical Monday.  But, in exactly one week we are supposed to get to 50 degrees so I'm holding out hope that spring HAS to be on the way!

  

To fight all the grey, this colorful session with beautiful girls seemed to be the way to go.  Getting to put all of these fall colors together just makes me wish for summer even more.  Until then, enjoy these highlights from the session!

Fawkes Kendrick {Brewster}

Every baby I work with is special but this boy is one that I have been praying for since his parents first talked about wanting a baby and being able to meet him for the first time was absolutely amazing!  He is perfect in every way and I loved getting to document these first moments.  The Brown family lives close to us and Kamden has been regularly trick or treating at their house all year long to help prepare them for what life can be like with hilarious little boys!  I'm so excited for more adventures with this precious boy and know that our boys will be good friends with him. :)

Miles' Newborn Session {Kennewick}

I have known Miles' family for the last 8 or so years, but my husband has known his dad, almost his whole life and basketball was one thing that they have always loved.  When Lauren asked me to do pictures with Miles I was so excited because I have had the chance to do pictures with their other two over the last several summers and getting to meet the newest member of the Berg family only days after his birth was even better than I imagined.  He was so easy to work with and let me do pretty much anything I wanted with him.  The last photo is extra special because his big sister picked out a little friend that she wanted him to have included so of course we had to do that!

Purvis Family {Manson}

Whenever I get to work with a big family it's always a reminder to me how amazing it can be to have a lot of brothers and sisters, as one of 5 I know that having built in best friends is the way to go!  This gorgeous family was so willing to do whatever I needed for the perfect shots and even going out in the rain to make sure we accomplished the session.  The three littlest were completely charming and by the end were all about posing it up for me!  Being able to live near a place that many come for destination vacations means that I get to meet so many different people and the Purvis family were incredible to work with!
