With the digital world these days, it’s so easy for anyone to pick up a digital camera and snap a few photos of their cute kids.   Custom Photography is a luxury…but so is an HDTV…or an iphone, or a cruise.  Hiring a professional photographer to capture the moments in your baby’s life will be something you will treasure a lifetime.  In five years that new TV will need to be replaced.  It will fall apart.  They’re not meant to last a lifetime.  Professional Portraits are.  I have heirloom portraits of my great grandparents.  Portraits are something you will pass on through generations.

Baby photographers are very experienced in what they do.  That’s why we specialize in this area.  We know how to comfort and soothe your baby.  How to get them in those curly, squishy little poses that you all love so much!

I can’t tell you how many times I have clients come to me when their babies are 2 and 3 months old saying “I wish I had known there was an option for me to have a professional baby photographer capture my baby when they were still a newborn!”   I sympathize with these moms, because sometimes they are just heartbroken.  Not everyone knows this is available to them.  Custom photography is something you should plan for, invest in, and start early while you are still pregnant.  Just like you plan for a vacation…plan your baby’s first year photography sessions.

I offer theBABY LIFE PLAN to all my clients.  That first year is a special time and you don’t want to miss all those first moments that will soon be gone.  At 3 months when they begin holding their head up….6 months when they have learned to sit on their own…and finally at that one year stage when they can stand alone.  In that first year alone they have grown and changed so much from a tiny little newborn you held in your arms.  Believe me, you’re going to want to remember those, and an heirloom wall portrait or a special album will keep those times close to your heart.

I went to California a week ago to a workshop where we photographed beautiful pregnant mommies!  One of my favorite spots was Laguna Beach, where I photographed Gina.  What a beautiful young woman she is!  She could seriously be a maternity model for sure!  I loved every minute of this and would hop at another chance to photograph maternity portraits on the beach any time!  The light is gorgeous on the beach and just reflects her natural beauty….Enjoy

Adorable little baby Madelynn decided she wanted to come into the world a week early!  Such a tiny little thing, only 7 days old, and she slept almost the entire session.  Boy does she like to poo and pee too, let me tell ya!  I think she got all the blankets except one! haha…oh but you just gotta love the little thing.  She is so sweet and oh how I loved holding her.  Her big brother Riley just adores her!  Thanks Jenni & Randy for allowing me to be a part of these special moments with you.

If you’re a photographer and would like to purchase one of these awesome slings, visit Keri Meyers and see all her great colors available!

Aren’t these two just the cutest!!!?  Darling little Henry & Jasper at only 3 months old.  What a lovely family.  Mom and Dad are so proud of their little boys.  I really had a great time with these little guys.  They were so much fun and they really enjoyed their session with no fusses at all!  ….just a couple of happy campers hanging out in their buckets.  Little Henry actually fell asleep in his bucket right after this shot.  He loved it so much it just put him right to sleep! haha….The little hats were made from one of my clients too!  Aren’t they so cute?  Enjoy your sneak peek guys!!
