Dakota's Newborn Session

I have said it before- and I'll say it again. I am so grateful to get to work with these beautiful babies! Dakota has such a sweet disposition. He is especially dear to my heart because he is my newest little nephew! His mom and I were due just 2 days apart and yet our boys made their big debut almost 3 weeks apart! 

Leave Dakota's parents some love in the comments at the bottom!
 If they receive at least 30 comments they'll earn a FREE video slideshow of their session- a $30 value! Help them decide which picture to enlarge for Dakota's nursery! I was no help what-so-ever... I have too many favorites! 

Enjoy!



Dakota's mommy and grandma made some of the beautiful blankets we used in his shoot. I love when clients bring sentimental items to incorporate!


























Congratulations again! What a sweet little family!

And just for fun- my mom wanted a picture of her two newest grandchildren together. So here are my favorites of Zach and Dakota. They're going to have so much fun growing up together!

Sweet Baby Mine

I have been working with so many sweet little newborns lately, but I have to say this one is my favorite.
Why?
Because he's all mine! 
 This is my little Zachary. 
We have waited a long time for him to join our family and couldn't be more excited that he is finally here! My girls absolutely adore him, and I just can't get enough of his chubby little cheeks and fantastic rolls on his arms and legs. 
 This set of pictures was taken when he was just 5 days old. What's amazing to me is that he looks like a completely different baby depending on how he is posed, and whether or not gravity is pulling on those beautiful cheeks or not. :) 







This next set was taken when Zach was 8 days old. Amazing to me how he looks different already! These are very casual shots- He just looked so bright eyed after his bath I decided to snap a few pictures. 


 Then he fell asleep so I wrapped him up and got some detail shots of his teeny toes and that fabulous head of hair. 

 Sleepy newborn smiles are the BEST!








 I literally just can't get enough of him! He is such a sweet baby, and it is so fun having a little man around the house!

Audrianna's Newborn Session

Gorgeous little Audrianna was quite a bit older than my usual newborn. She was so alert at the beginning of our session, and really making us work for every shot! But eventually her mama worked her magic and got her to sleep, and after that it was smooth sailing! 
What a beauty!















Addison's Newborn Session

This little doll was just 10 days old at her shoot. She slept like a champ, and I just couldn't get over that beautiful head of hair!

You've Got a Friend in Me!

I'm feeling good today. 
Maybe it's the smell of banana bread baking in my oven, or the sound of my kids playing NICELY in the other room, or maybe it's because because my baby slept for 4 straight hours last night. (Doesn't sound like much, but when you're used to only getting 45 minutes of sleep at a time, 4 hours is positively heavenly!) 
Whatever the reason may be, the bottom line is I'm feeling good! So today I've decided it's time to do something for YOU! 

From now until the end of April, everyone that books a session with me will receive my friends and family discount! That's right! Bust out those BFF necklaces because it's official! We're all friends here!  YOU can take advantage of an awesome 30% discount, just by booking your session by the end of April. 

Whether you need some updated family pictures, senior portraits, or you're expecting a new baby ... NOW is the time to get your session scheduled! Don't miss out on this great opportunity, it won't last forever!

Your BFF- Jamie
