Baby AJ – Maternity Shoot

I have another sweet family to share with you, starting with their very colorful maternity shoot taken at Lake Quannapowitt in Wakefield. Eileen and Fabio had Year-In-The-Life Portraits taken back in 2009 as they welcomed little Delia into their family. (Check them out here!)

I love this rustic-ish bench among the green. So pretty!

And of course, big-sister-to-be Delia could not be left out!

The expression. The jelly bracelets. This little lady is already channeling her inner-adolescent! :)

Having so much fun!

Already loving on her baby brother! So sweet.

And now they are a family of FOUR! Come back on Friday to meet baby AJ!

Baby Cameron – One Year Portrait Session

“Baby” Cameron is not such a baby these days! Krista met the family in Gloucester for Cameron’s final Year-in-the-Life session. And what a stud he is at one year old! They started at the Eastern Point Lighthouse, a lovely New England location near Wingaersheek Beach.

He’s still got that awesome furrowed brow look!

Look at how big he is!!

It was a crazy foggy day by the water!

Whee!

I promised a fedora…

And drool!

Dancing fool on the beach!

I mean, come ON! He even brought his own guitar.

I LOVE this shot with the sand flying!

Coolest family ever! :)

Oh Cameron, it has been SO fun watching you change and grow!! Happy first birthday, buddy!! And many thanks, Christina and Terry, for allowing Krista to document this past year! Be sure to let us know when you are ready to do it again! ;)

Baby Cameron — Six Month Portrait Session

So Krista caught up with Baby Cameron when he was six months old at the family’s home. From there they took a walk to the park for some perfect New England Fall foliage shots. Cameron was not all that interested in smiling, but I think you’ll agree he’s so stinking cute that it doesn’t matter!

I mean the lips. The hair. Can’t take it.

I almost forgot the eyelashes!!

Trying some moves on Krista! :)

They found some fabulous fall color at the park!

Nom nom nom. Just tasting the foliage… No big deal!

Best eyebrows ever.

Such a serious little heartbreaker.

Think I’ll just casually move this leaf to my mouth… no one will notice… :)

Such a beautiful family!

Apparently daddy is very funny! Basically all of the shots with Cameron smiling involve goofing around with his dad–love it!

I know I sound like a broken record, but as crazy as it sounds, Baby Cameron only continues to become cuter! I’m not kidding. Come back Friday to check out his one year shoot in Gloucester. Little dude will be in boat shoes and a fedora. THAT’S RIGHT FOLKS – not to be missed!

Baby Cameron – Newborn Portrait Session

I promised an amazing little man, and I’m confident that Baby Cameron won’t disappoint! Krista visited the family in their home soon after Cameron’s arrival. There really is something incredible about a baby who is only days old.

Check out all of that hair! (Just wait until you see how quickly it grows as he gets older! It’s awesome!)

“Oh, hey mom!”

Aren’t they the most relaxed looking new parents ever??

Serious milk coma!

The lips I was telling you about…

LOVE the expressions on these two!

I know it seems impossible, but Baby Cameron is even more adorable at his six month session! Come back Wednesday to see!

Baby Cameron — Maternity Session

Meet Christina and Terry. They were so excited for the arrival of their first baby, they decided to do a Year-In-The-Life portrait series! So Krista met them last year at the Crane Estate for some maternity pictures just before Baby Cameron’s arrival… Get a load of all this cuteness.

Such a beautiful mama-to-be!

Seriously, how cute are these two?

Hmmm, wonder who the “boss” is…. :)

Comparing baby bellies! Love it!

If you think these two are adorable (how could you not?), just wait until you meet Cameron! His lips are truly to die for! :)

Baby Lane — One Year Portrait Session

Ok, I promised more tulle and I never make promises I can’t keep! Lane recently turned one and Krista was invited to the party. This little girly girl was perfect for the shimmery gold background Krista has!! Add to that the pink, the ruffles, the PEARLS!! Just take a look for yourself…

Hello little teeth!

I LOVE that Lori thought to write out Lane’s current faves like this! Such a great way to remember all the little things that are so easily forgotten as the years go by.

Little diva! Isn’t she gorgeous??!

Now bear with me… there were SO many awesome cake smash pictures, and I did try my best to keep it simple here, but I just couldn’t help myself and I think you will agree that more is better in this case!

Little lady knocked the cake over twice!

But she got over it pretty quick!

I love how Mark has evidence of icing all over his shirt!

Some of the super cute details.

The fishy marshmellows are so stinking clever, I can’t even stand it!

Catching some snuggles with her mama.

I love how similar this shot is to the family picture Krista took when Lane was a newborn. Look at that BIG girl though!

If you want to see even MORE of this fun shoot, check out the album on Facebook here. Thank you, Lori and Mark, for sharing Lane’s first birthday and cake smash with us!! Lane is such a doll and we can’t wait to see what is next to come for your sweet family!!

Come back Monday for our next better-late-than-never couple! Happy Friday!

Baby Delia at One Year – Reading MA

A couple of years ago, I started offering Year-in-the-Life portrait packages to my clients. I think it’s so neat to capture all of the little changes that take place over the course of a year, especially all of the big changes that happen in a baby’s first year! It’s really fun to watch these little ones grow and develop their own little personalities. Though it’s always a bit sad when the time comes for the last session and I know I won’t be seeing them every few months!

Baby Delia’s Year-in-the-Life began in the Fall of 2009 with maternity photos for mommy-to-be, Eileen.

And then there were newborn photos!

Our 6 month portraits were a little tricky due to a cold…

So we tried again at 8 months

And now we come to the end of the “year”… she was actually about 13 months when we finally were able to shoot this time, but you get the idea ;)

It was so nice to see her laughing and smiling so much!

Reading some books with Daddy!

don’t forget the family pets! Gotta love the cat in the crib ;)

snack time!

Haha, kids never want to get dressed to go outside!

LOVE that face!!

so sweet!

Eileen, Delia & Fabio

Eileen, Fabio & Delia – thank you so much for sharing this year with me! It’s been so fun to get to know you all over the last many months and to see your family, and Delia, grow!

Baby Delia’s Year-in-the-Life: 8 Months

A couple months ago I set out to photograph baby Delia for her 6-month session in her Year-in-the-Life portraits, but she wasn’t feeling well and cried most of the time :( So, we waited a few weeks and tried again. This time she was feeling much better and enjoyed the shoot a little more, thank goodness!

Even though she was feeling better, she still wasn’t interested in smiling for the camera. She was MUCH more interested in this leaf!

There’s her smile!

Delia & Daddy

Looking at the flowers with Mommy

She mostly wanted to eat them :)

Can we talk about these eyes for a minute?! Woah!

By this point she was pretty much done, so we walked back to the house

Now, back at home was a whole different story! She was having way more fun – blowing raspberries and babbling up a storm :)

The whole family – cats included :)

Can’t believe the next time I see Delia she’ll be one year old!! It’ll be here before you know it!!

A Year-in-the-Life: Chloe’s 1st Birthday Party!

Wow, time really does just fly by, doesn’t it?! It seems like it wasn’t that long ago Justin & Gretchen were getting married! Since then they’ve gotten pregnant, had a baby girl, had lots of photo shoots of little Chloe growing up, and now she’s officially a year old!!! To celebrate, they threw her a party complete with cake smashed in the face and lots of laughs – and once again I got to be there to document the fun!

So big!

First of all, the 3 pigtails she’s got going on are adorable. Secondly, look at how sweet that face is! And third, I think it’s hilarious how much she loved that card (more than the present even)!

Blowing kisses!

not quite walking… I love Gretchen’s hand in the lower left of this shot. Giving her a chance to stay up by herself, but definitely ready to catch her at the first sign of falling.

1st Birthday Princess :)

What’s this deliciousness?!

Once you have cake all over you, your best bet is to just wash off in the pool!

Dads always know how to make their girls laugh!

And every little girl needs a fabulous & adoring AUNT!!

trying to walk some more…. I love the toes, the little thighs, the shadows (especially the hand reaching out to grab)!

You’re too cute, Chloe!

Gretchen & Justin (and Chloe) – thank you! You guys are the best! It’s been SO fun to document this crazy & wonderful year for you!!!! It’s hard to believe it’s over already, and I won’t be coming by your house in a couple months for another shoot ;) But, I’m excited to stay connected with you and see how your family continues to grow and change over the years!

To view more of my favorites from this shoot check out the album on Facebook!
