Paisleigh is ONE!

Cake smash photo shoots are so fun! A beautiful mess! Paisleigh was so sweet and dainty, just like a girl should be! Haha! She preferred using the fork...or chewing on the fork to assist her front tooth that was about to pop through. It's fun when I get to photograph family! This is my cousin's daughter and even the fact that he's a daddy is making me feel so old! I am so thankful to be able to capture these precious moments for them, though.  There really is nothing better...

Happy 1st Birthday Paisleigh...you are such a blessing!

I may be biased...ok, I am biased.  Nothing but beautiful babies in this fam bam! ;) Ha!

Now this is by far the best part of my job as a photographer.  My friend, Erica and her husband Shawn brought this sweet little boy into the world a little over a week ago and I have already had the privilege of meeting him! He liked me so much that he literally pooped on my hand (Ha!). Which totally did not phase this mom of four! Poop when they only consume breast milk? Yeah, girl, I've got this!

There's just something sweet about experiencing motherhood for the first time...everything is so new and so overwhelming.  You begin to wonder if you're really cut out for this mommy stuff.  And then God whispers to your soul..."You were made for this." I think that's truly why newborn photography is my favorite.  I remember those days so well...it's so hard but so worth it.

Weeks turn into months and months turn into years and before you know it you don't have any idea where the newborn baby went.  I'm thankful to have been chosen to freeze time for a minute for this sweet family!

Here are a few of my favorites:
