my ellie, my chunk chunk, my little bundle of pure perfection. you are 8.5 weeks of age, you are now mere ounces shy of 13lbs and are a little over 23 inches long.  you finally graced us with your precious gummy smile about 2 weeks ago and your voice was soon to follow. you truly […]

We had such a blast, one year sessions have always been such a favorite of mine, i always find it so fascinating how much each little one’s personalities have developed in just one […]

I truly got to watch her unravel in front of my eyes during her shoot. I shot this little beauties portraits back when she was […]
