Sweet little Lou and her parents were a complete joy to work with. This session was right around the holiday rush so I just got a chance to blog these beauties. She was wide awake for the first half then quickly succumbed to a nap. Her grandma eagerly helped during this session which is always [...]
What a little ray of sunshine this session was. I mean, when I say I love my job, I do truly mean that to the fullest extent. This session is a complete reflection of that. I was so happy that I got to know Arden's parents during our beautiful Maternity session together. I do hope [...]
