Tara | Maternity | 12.10.11

A couple of months ago, I took pictures of her 2-year-old daughter. Now a month away from giving birth to baby boy Parker, Tara was yet another beautiful mother-to-be to photograph! Her daughter made an appearance for a few of the photos, too, playing the roll of proud-big-sister :)

And, lucky for us, no threat of rain this time! Just a perfectly cloudy day...

Lane | 11.02.2011

I took her maternity photos back in October, and now she and her husband are celebrating their new family of 3 (4, if you include their sweet little puppy)!

While Kati was still getting ready for the photo shoot, I was able to spend about 15 minutes with just Lane and Dad (and captured a few moments, of course). I obviously have no experience with being a parent, but from the smile on Dad's face and the way he looked at Lane I could feel the sense of love and pride he had for the little life in his arms. The photos practically took themselves :)

Kati had told me that we scheduled the photo shoot right during his nap time, AND he had just been fed, so he should sleep like a champ through the photo shoot. Well, I think we jinxed it because the little guy did not sleep a wink! But, because of that, I was able to frame his bright blue eyes in most of the photos :) Kati texted me later that night and said, "The photo shoot must have worn him out because he has slept all day!" Oh, well....

Baby session part 2: Meet the Parents

We went out Sunday morning before it got crazy hot and had a photo session with Mom and Dad. The photos capture perfectly how much this couple loves their sweet baby :)

Thanks again for being my guinea pigs, J and K.
