Oh hello blog!  It’s been a while since I’ve seen you!  I feel so badly that I’m so backed up on blogging… especially since THIS session has been waiting as the next one in line to get shared with the world.  OH MY HEART do I love this baby boy and his parents.  I photographed this little dude (who belongs to a dear friend of mine and her incredible husband) when he was brand spankin new in January, and have watched him grow up to this adorable, 6-month old little man.

Mom had texted me pictures of these outfits prior to our session and I knew he was going to look adorable… before we got to see them on him, we had to document these adorable little rolls that are to die for!

After Mom and Dad were convinced that we had enough material to embarrass him when he’s older – we took a trek over to Huntington Beach in Bay Village for an absolutely GORGEOUS night for photography…

I dare any photographer to look at this girl and not want to style her and put her into a beautiful field and capture her gorgeousness. (P.S. – friend, we’re going to talk about that!)

Such an amazing, dedicated Mom.  I remember watching her at her newborn session and seeing what a natural she was, and she has only  blossomed even more into a dedicated and caring Mama to this little guy.

Loved that Dad was willing to hop in front of the lens for me!   This guy has such an awesome spirit… great to be around.

And he is one adorable Dad.  Loved watching him interact with his little mini-me.

What an absolutely PERFECT night for your session to complement such an adorable family. Thank you SO MUCH for allowing me to continue to document the little man’s milestones.  You guys are such great friends and it’s been so much fun to watch you all grow together as a family. Looking forward to our next session. Thanks for everything.  Until next time…

Sorry friend… I have to tell the story… because maybe one my favorite photography memories of all time was when I was lying down on the ground with my face fully pressed against my camera photographing this little guy.  And I hear some “pig sounds” being made behind me to try to make this little one laugh (and we’re not talking your typical “oink oink” here, folks. We’re talking REAL pig noises) And I remember saying, “Wow – Daddy makes some very real-sounding pig noises!!” … only to turn around and see Mom in her pretty makeup and chic outfit being the one creating the noise!!  I literally fell to the ground laughing.  Between that, and the three of us singing songs to him for an hour… this is how he ended up looking at us.  SO FUNNY.
