Meet sweet baby, Shelby.  I have had the opportunity to work with the Mitchell’s throughout  Shelby’s life, starting with Nicole’s maternity session last summer.  Now this precious baby girl is 6 months old and I’m loving watching her grow!  She is almost exactly 3 months older than my Ramona, so I get to see what fun I have to look forward to.  Looks like I’ll see more smiles and laughing, some sitting, and an overall more alert baby.  Shelby’s little personality shines–I’m learning that babies are truly, complete little humans.  And this little bean is yummy all around.  I can’t wait to visit and photographer her again at 9 months.  Stay tuned…

Oh my goodness, so much fun!!!  Three families got together and put a party on for their 1 year-old boys, Jones, Silas and Sadler.  And it was a RIOT!  I had such a great time photographing this event in a documentary style.  The babes all had such strong personalities and it cracked me up that they technically had no idea what was going on.  A first birthday party is so much more for the parents than it is for the little guys, but it’s certainly a celebration to be had, none the less.  Enjoy glimpses of these guys quirky little personalities….and of course their reactions to their first cupcake.
