my new buddy | winston-salem and clemmons newborn photographer

can i just start by saying i *love* this kid? i mean, it's enough that he's adorable and cuddly in all his squishy newborn goodness, but then.... THEN.... at 2 1/2 weeks old, he slept the *whole* session. i was shocked. he was in total chill mode, and it was fantastic. i'm so glad he's my newest baby planner! i made him promise that he'd be just as well-behaved and adorable for his 6 month and 1 year sessions. he agreed. can't wait to hang with my new little buddy again!

I had to give him a little faux hawk for at least one shot :)

he didn't even get mad at me for putting the hat on him. not yet anyway, wait til he's a teenager :)

see the cheeks? do you SEE the cheeks? oh my word.

i got to spend a few hours with this sweet little guy on saturday. he fought sleep (and won :) and i gave him the nickname houdini (he earned it!). we got lots of awake photos, and his cousin, who was one of my baby planners, came by for some 2 year old photos. enjoy your sneak peek!

a chilly day in old salem... | clemmons and winston-salem family photographer

meet the b family! we go to church together and are in the same sunday school class, so they have to put up with me fairly often. :) i really enjoyed spending time with them yesterday! they're really one of the sweetest families you'll ever meet. little man kept us all laughing as we explored the salem college campus together. he made sure to point out how old all the buildings were and asked a few times if the people were really old too. :) we had fun and nobody fell in the creek, so i consider that a success. :) thanks guys!

expecting.... | clemmons and winston-salem maternity photographer

in the chaos of the busy fall season, i have been posting small sneak peeks on fb and neglecting my blog... for that, i apologize! but i plan to make it up to you, with a sneak peek of a beautiful mom-to-be and her sweet husband. they're so excited about their impending arrival, and i know they're going to be fabulous parents!

we had a great time during this session. lots of laughter and funny moments! i enjoyed getting to know this fun couple, and i can't wait to meet little audrey! i know she'll have her mommy's beauty, her daddy's sweet spirit, and her parents' sense of humor. ashley and steve, you're going to have your hands full. :)
