New Little Miss G | Newborn Photos | Cincinnati Baby Photographer

Little Miss G's mom contacted me a while back to do her newborn photos, and I have been anxiously awaiting her arrival..and here she is!!  I love newborns!  Their tiny little features, that newborn smell, and of course their sweet little cry...yes I can say that because that sweet little cry isn't keeping me up all night:) Her cry didn't last long...Miss G was an angel and her photos are sweet as can be.

I love spring!!! | Cincinnati Child and Family Photographer

I love spring!  We have lived in our house for almost 10 years now, and I love seeing all of the plants and flowers I have planted over the years, come back again and again.  Everything is turning green, and my flowers are all coming up.  I love working in the garden.  Some people hate it, but I LOVE it!  I even love pulling weeds, although ask me in July and I might have different thoughts about that:)  All in all, my garden is starting to look pretty good.  Here is a shot from my beautiful crabapple tree.  Pure beauty.

Spring!!! | Cincinnati Baby and Child Photographer

Spring is here!  Finally!  I can now work in the garden, plant flowers, and most importantly, photograph outside without worrying if it still looks like winter in the middle of April.   I just love shooting outside.  Your background can change so easily, and everyone is more relaxed and natural outside. The possibilities are endless!

6 Months Already? | 6 Month Photos | Cincinnati Baby Photographer

Little Miss M is 6 months and I can't believe it!!  I know her mom and dad can't believe it either.  She is the sweetest, easiest little baby, and full of smiles.  Most of her smiles happened when her mom picked her back up and my camera was down, but that's ok.  She's adorable, smiling or not:)

A Brave Young Man | Cincinnati Senior Portrait Photographer

I was so excited to do N's Senior Pictures because I knew he was planning on bringing his uniform.  He signed up for the Ohio National Guard, which I think is so impressive for a young person to do, and he will report for Basic Training a few weeks after he graduates.  I am SO pleased with how the photos turned out.  I told his mom she would probably cry when she saw these, and she did.  I'm lucky to know such good people:)

Miss A | First Communion | Cincinnati Child Photographer

First Communion.  Such a special day, and Miss A looked absolutely beautiful in her dress and fancy hair do.  Too bad the poor little thing was freezing while we were shooting.  Mom stood just off camera with her coat, so between shots, she could warm up.  The sun ended up coming out and the rest of the day was beautiful! 

My Kids | Family Photos | Cincinnati Child Photographer

These are my kids:)  This is usually how it goes when I tell them I want to take their picture.  They moan and groan because I take "a thousand" pictures.  Three of the four will be looking while the fourth one is making some goofy face.  It is fun, and I love them with all my heart, but sometimes it can be painfully frustrating.  Thank God for digital because if this was film, I would have run out!  So, I am posting this for all of you whose children drive you crazy when all you want is one nice picture for your mantle:)
