Lexington Children's Photographer: The "K" Kids

On this chilly start to December, I thought these photos from one of my favorite autumn shoots would warm you up! I absolutely loved these two and I think you'll see why...!

Lexington Children's and Family Photography: The "B" Family

Oh dear! It's been WAY too long since I've posted to the blog! It's not for lack of content, that's for sure. I wanted to share today some pics from a family session I shot last month with the "B" family and 1-year-old "D." Oh my goodness, what a good little model he was with such pretty blue eyes! I told him I'd take his photo any day he'd let me! Thanks, B family, for letting me document this special time in the life of your family! I hope our paths cross again!

Lexington Children's Photography: Miss "E" turns 1!

Do you remember baby E? You can see her newborn pics here and her 6-month-old portraits here. These photos were taken several weeks ago and it's fun to finally get to share them here. Look at those eyes! How fun to watch her grow up and become such a little person! Happy Birthday, girl!

Lexington Children's Photography: M+M

It was a pleasure to photograph these two again! Mom told me she'd be happy with just one good picture of them. I hope we got a few more than that...

ahhh, all that blond hair and blue eyes!

Do you wonder what she's thinking about here? Oh to be two and carefree. ;-)

Killer blue eyes! M, you look like you're five going on fifteen!

Lexington Children's Photography: the "K" Kids

We didn't know if this session was going to happen ... you know, the whole "rain thing." But looking at our schedules, finding another time to get together (shy of taking photos at 7AM on a Saturday morning) appeared to be quite difficult. So we started out by taking a few pictures on the porch, then moving out to the sidewalk with Mom and Dad holding umbrellas over the kids and removing them at the last minute to snap a few pics and then returning them (the boys were wearing silk shirts from India and you know that silk shows water spots!). The drizzle appeared to subside for a few minutes so we ventured out into the yard. Then before we knew it, we had the session in the bag! I had a lot of favorites from that evening, but here are just a few. Enjoy!

P.S. The blog might be quite quiet for a while -- we are traveling for several weeks to adopt our little guy, David! I will post photos sometime next month, hopefully!

Lexington Portrait Photography: Baby "M"

The "B" Sisters!

I still have oodles of sessions to blog from the "Wall of Fame" promotion for A Caring Touch Pediatrics (our favorite health care professionals in Lexington!). Here's one I was anxious to share this weekend but couldn't get my image uploader to cooperate... (if you are a participating family, don't worry, yours is coming!)

The image above just arrived as a canvas yesterday and oh it will be so hard to part with!

Lexington Children's Photography: MS&S

After photographing "S" for her 12-month photos, I was excited to meet her big brother, "MS". Watch out girls! This little guy has the looks and the charm! We're adopting a little guy this summer and I can't wait til he's a little older and we can break out the hair gel like this. And maybe find our own seersucker suit and paisley tie...

Lexington Children's Photography: 2-year-old "L"

I wish all 2 year olds were as easy to photograph as Miss "L". If she had any difficult moments, it might have been exerting her preference to wear dress #1 over dress #2 (Mommy's choice!). What can you say, though? I like a girl who has an opinion!

Lexington Children's Photography: "L"

Miss L was a quiet kind of girl. She didn't say much but would comply with my request to 'stand here', 'sit there', 'turn your head this way,' etc. At the end of our time together she still hadn't said much but when I got a peek at her blue fingernails, I had a feeling "L" had bunches of personality I hadn't gotten to see but wanted to know! I was glad to learn that she attends the same school as my daughter and I look forward to bumping into her now and again (as I did today) in the years ahead!

Lexington Children's Photographer: The "B" Brothers

I grew up in a family of all girls, and since we only have one daughter (for now), the lives of brothers has always been a bit curious to me. These guys seemed to exemplify all the positives you think of in terms of a brotherly relationship, plus a lot of energy! Playmates, best friends, partners in crime -- the "B" brothers have it! Thanks, guys, for a peek into your lives! Give your mom a hug for me!
