Meet William – Columbus, GA Baby Photographer

Monday, April 25th, 2011

Another new First Year member! This little man is pint sized… but full of personality and so so sweet! His big sister came a long too… talk about full of LIFE! We snuck in a shot or two of her as well.

Meet Emma Kate – Columbus, GA Baby Photographer

Monday, April 25th, 2011

Emma Kate is one of our newest members of the First Year Plan! She is a beautiful little lady with a very sweet Mommy! We hadn’t planned to photograph the two of them together but I’m SO glad we did! Some of my new favorite poses are Mommies with their babies. Enjoy your preview!

Meet Henry – Columbus, GA Newborn Photographer

Saturday, April 16th, 2011

Henry is 7 days old and simply ADORABLE! He was a perfect combo of super alert and very sleepy! You will see more of him, as he’s signed up for The First Year plan. Can’t wait to watch you grow, sweet Henry!

Welcome Baby Will – Columbus, GA Newborn Photographer

Monday, April 11th, 2011

Another wonderful hospital session today with a super blessed family. How do I know they are blessed? Because at least 10 of them were packed in a tiny hospital room showing their love, support, and excitement for Will’s sweet parents! What a treasure this little guy is. Stay tuned for his newborn session …coming soon!

Mom’s View Monday – Columbus, GA Newborn Photographer

Monday, April 11th, 2011

Mom’s View Mondays! I didn’t forget… Just busy… in a very good way. But I’m not leaving this idea behind!

Meet Carrie, age 35, mom of four (Oliver & Ada 5 years, Wyatt 3 1/2, and Mae 2 months). Carrie is highly qualified in the mom department. I love the way she seems to hold it all together, but still be REAL! It was so much fun to meet their newest addition, Mae a couple months ago and also catch up with the rest of the fam! :) So, without further tardiness…

  • What’s the best thing about motherhood? LOVE…my heart could burst.
  • What’s the hardest thing about motherhood? “Me” time disappearing.
  • What has come as a total surprise to you? That a baby can go a week or more without pooping and be fine!  And that I actually had four kids in 5 years!
  • Favorite baby item? Swaddle Designs Swaddling Blankets and my BOB baby jogger
  • Most useless baby item? Diaper pails. We bag them and send the to the garage!
  • Any tips on sleep- for you or your baby? Sleep when the baby sleeps is a myth!  But for the babies I’ve had success with a modified mix of babywise and the baby whisperer.  I’m a schedule person, and it helps manage the chaos.
  • Confess! What have you done that you said you’d NEVER do? That I would go out with spit up in my hair on a pretty regular basis.
  • Words of advice concerning labor, delivery, or hospital stay? Pack your own pj’s so you are comfortable after the delivery.  And decide how you want things to be post delivery, will you welcome visitors or  want just you and your husband, and communicate that to others.
  • Any tips on preparing for your newborn session or other advice concerning a session? Holly can get a good photo out of almost any situation!  But if you don’t involve older kids in a newborn session you will be less stressed!  I had mine come and it was a bit of a circus for the brief time they were there :)  That being said, I wouldn’t trade the pictures for anything, they were wonderful!

 

 

Meet Lawson – Columbus, GA Newborn Photographer

Friday, April 8th, 2011

Lawson is 6 days old and already a stinker (I won’t mention any embarrassing details)! ;) Well, really, he is an absolute sweetheart with a full head of hair…  I had the privilege of photographing his big sister Mayson’s first year and to get to know this little guy a few years later is so much fun. We started things off with a hospital session on Sunday and met again today for his official session! Lawson’s parents are our children’s pastors at church which makes them very special to us. Thank you, Brad and Tabby, for the investment you’ve made in our kids lives. We are so happy that your new little guy is here!

PS… This is a great time to remind you about the hospital add-on option! In my opinion, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! I absolutely LOVE these… the epitome of newness! The hospital add-on is only available when accompanied by a standard newborn session, first year baby plan, or a maternity/newborn combo. It is an additional $100 and for a limited time includes an 8×8 mounted collage (such as the one above) which can also double as a facebook birth announcement. It’s quick and simple- I’m in and out in 20 minutes or so- and a minimum of 10 extra proofs will be added your newborn gallery.

It’s contagious…
