This mom and I have been emailing since 2007 about doing a shoot with her family and two dogs… I’m so glad we finally got to do it. Back in April when she booked this shoot, she was concerned about her older pup, Annie – worried that her cancer might get the better of her before we got a chance to take these pictures. But she made it! Sweet old pup – she gave lots of love to 2 year old big boy G:

And these guys had lots of fun together:

A shot with the whole gang, yay!

And a toss in the air from dad:

A classic shot of this sweet boy. Isn’t he handsome? I love the way the windowshades are reflecting the light behind him, too.

This is apparently the face G always makes when they get to this page of “How Do Dinosaurs Say Good Night?” (he’s imitating a dinosaur crying, of course) :)

And I had to include this one – I love his expression as he finds his favorite garbage man. It was great to meet you guys and get a chance to take pictures of you all, thanks for everything!

“Jess took this picture of my son, Ryan, and dog, Sam, when Ryan was about four months old. I love it because Jess captures Sam’s sweet gentleness and Ryan’s innocence in this one moment. It’s perfect!

This kind of picture just makes me happy. I love the splayed fingers, the toes, the eyelashes – and the perfect girl behind it all! Even the belly button the bottom corner of the shot is great.

Knuckle dimples AND wrist rolls. Yum!

It was so fun to get to go back and see this big girl now. We took pictures back in December when she was only five weeks old, and her mom was telling me that she lost all that long dark hair after the shoot. It’s so amazing how they change! Look at her new head of hair here:

So good at hanging out on her tummy:

And more toes pictures, now that they’re getting bigger than they were when she was tiny…

Doesn’t she look like she’s got something big to tell us?

And a kiss from her sweet puppy dog :) Wonderful to see you guys!

This sweet girl (with the best tush!) was doing such a good job holding her head up – look how much fun she’s having:

And the other baby still loves giving Daddy kisses. I love the way M is looking up at her dad to see what he thinks of the licks:

And a sweet quiet moment with mom:

The delicate fingers on her belly are one of my favorite parts of this picture… that and the rolls on the ankles… and the sweet space between her big toe and the other toes on her feet.. OK, I guess I should stop – I do love this, though:

And a pensive girl looking up as she gets some love from mom and dad:

Three generations of girls:

There was a ton of love in this house! Love this cuddle. So wonderful to meet you guys – thanks for having me out!

Gorgeous girl B is only ten months old, but she’s very sweet to her pup:

Doesn’t she look like such a little angel here?

Some mommy toe kisses:

And can’t forget the fabulous hat!

We actually had snow outside as we were shooting – it was a winter wonderland :)

And even when you’re ten months old and perfect, there comes a time when the photos are done. I love this! Really great to meet you guys, thanks for a fun shoot.

So normally I like to choose individual shots of each of the kids, maybe one of all three together when we have a group of cuties in the pictures… but this time I have five favorites that all have all three of them in them. Crazy. I love how the one thing in really crisp focus in this one is Monty – the pup in the back:

These guys think their little sister is pretty hilarious:

And it’s always good to dance:

Here are the three of them inside relaxing in the windowseat:

And of course we had to add the fourth baby to the shot :) Great to see you guys again!

Handsome little G’s mom and I share a due date for our #2′s. Looks like next year’s card picture will have a chubby little cutie in it!

Peekaboo with the fabulous tree behind him:

Doing his puzzles:

And when I say I’m a baby photographer – I mean all kinds of babies…

Wonderful to see you guys as always!

I love this moment with big 2 year old brother K and his new little brother. K’s eyelashes and hidden grin are so perfect, and B is getting a kick out of dad’s antics:

Doesn’t he look so casual?

Again, I’m a sucker for K’s eyelashes here:

Two handsome boys:

Great to see you guys – even your pup cooperated! :)

I met beautiful G back when she was just four months old – and now she’s a big girl with a strong neck and fantastic expressions:

Some smiles with dad:

Love to see the sweet fingers splayed here:

Having fun flying up in the air:

With her beloved pooch:

And I’m normally such a side lighting fan – but this light is just gorgeous, isn’t it? Don’t they look like a family of models? Wonderful to see you guys.

I first met big sister A last winter when I took pictures of her and her brother T, when he was still in his mom’s belly. I love coming back to see new babies after maternity photoshoots – it’s the best. And seeing siblings having giggles together, just a few months out of the belly? Incredible.

Here’s handsome T, wrapped in Grandma’s special blanket:

Here’s beautiful A, after she just leapt down off the stairs. Don’t you love the mischief on her face?

And T’s huge beautiful eyes:

My favorite toes picture is usually of new baby toes, but you know what else is perfect? Four year old girlie toes, with sweet pink nail polish. Incredible.

And T shares some smiles with Mom:

The whole fam, with big pup Bella. It was great to see you guys again! All the rest of your pictures will be done soon.

It was a pleasure meeting you guys – I hope the trip to visit your family was/is great. The rest of your photos will be ready by the weekend if not before.
Doesn’t he look like he’s just finished an afternoon snack?
It was great meeting you guys a few weeks ago – your photos will be ready ASAP! (To other waiting families, I’m still running about 2 weeks behind on the blogging, sorry everybody!)
I love this sweet shot with their pup – and the fact that he’s licking dad right on the mouth cracks me up.
