We’ve also included our most favorite photo from this group at the very bottom of this post. Let’s just say we love happy accidents.

 

And now our favorite photo from this group. Meet Kingston, his parents, and a random construction guy who happened to hear the giggles below and decided to poke his head out to see what was going on. Like I said, we love happy accidents:

We would like begin our series of update posts with some of our favorite newborn and maternity photos from the last “blog-less” months of portraiture. We think newborns are pretty awesome and are happy to share what we’ve been up to. Enjoy!

P.S.  Our next post (in a few days) will include babies 3-12 months old. Stay tuned!

Hello all! After much thought, prayer, and conversation – Tamrah and I decided that I (Cory) will go to Puerto Vallarta on the missions trip in January. I’ve never been on a trip like this and am SO excited for the experiences ahead!

As far as the mini-sessions go on October 8th, nothing there has changed one bit. Tamrah and I will both be out photographing the sessions, and all of the details remain exactly the same. Down below is a slightly altered promo for the shoot (notice where it says “Cory” instead of “Tamrah”… pretty clever huh?)

 

*Here’s the original post (written by Tamrah)*

So, guess what?!? No, I haven’t decided to give up coffee, silly. I’m going on a trip. A very special trip, in fact. I’m planning to head to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico this January. And no, it’s not to get a tan (as anyone who knows me knows, my skin doesn’t take too kindly to sunbathing).

Actually, I have the great opportunity to go on a missions trip! I get to spend time caring for the kiddos there, distributing shoes, showing love. And the best part? I get to take my camera, document the trip, and share it with the world. I get to go on this spectacular adventure with the purpose of using my camera to show what people are doing down there to help and love people.

When some people hear the words Puerto Vallarta, they almost instantly say, “Oh, my! It’s beautiful there! Such a great place to vacation!” And while I’m sure that’s true, as in any place that is beautiful and exotic and full of tourists, there are people who are not able to share in the wealth of a beautiful place like that. I get to be part of a group from my church who is going to go to share love with those less fortunate.

I plan to partner with a lovely vintage couch to raise funds for my trip to Mexico. How, you ask? Well, check this out:

 

And you, my friends, can be a family/couple/individual sitting upon a couch on a field. I’m truly excited for this opportunity. Not only can I raise money for this trip, but I get to do something I’ve always wanted to do: photograph sessions with a lovely, vintage couch in the middle of a big, open, gorgeous field. Not to mention conditions look promising for peak fall color.

Session slots will be available every 45 minutes and will be 30 minutes long. Sessions are $200. Normally, we don’t provide a CD of high resolution images with our sessions, but because of the nature of these sessions, they will be included in the session fee of $200. These high-resolution files can be used for Christmas cards, prints or any other personal use. {In case of rain, Saturday, October 15th is the back-up date}.

Gracias! Mucho amor, que Dios los bendiga!

Babies this age have so much curiosity about the world and find such joy in discovery, and Elijah was no exception! :)

We’ve been photographing Noah since before he was born (see here). It’s awesome seeing his personality emerging as he enters toddler-hood. Before we post a few of our favorites from his party, here are a few favorites from his 7 month session that we hadn’t had a chance to post yet:

 

And a few of our favorites from his birthday party:

Meet Wren and Kaj. We’ve been following these guys since we photographed the birth of Kaj and it’s been amazing to watch them grow! Love these guys!

She’s amazing to photograph (so happy and photogenic!). Her 9 month session was spent following her around during her evening routine (playing, eating, book, bath). What a fun way to capture this age!

And here are a few from her 6 month session, since that session happened during our blogging hiatus:

So sweet! Newborns are definitely one of my favorite subjects to photograph… their incredibly tiny fingernails, curled up legs, and mid-sleep smiles. Every baby is a wonder. It’s amazing to be able to freeze those details in a photograph!

What a handsome little guy! I love following the life of families as the seasons in their lives change… it’s wonderful to see. It definitely reminds me of the studio I worked for when I was a teenager… At the time the photographers I worked for had photographed my mom’s high school senior photos, my parent’s wedding photos, and then my own senior photos. Life is such a beautiful progression!

Yes, I said Halloween. I just couldn’t resist posting a few of our favorites from a Halloween party we photographed… I seriously started feeling chilly and smelling wood smoke as I chose my favorites. Ahhh… fall. My favorite season. And this party embraced all that was fun: great food, a bonfire, games, and (so awesome) a “happy halloween” parade.

Another thing about these photos that had me itching to post them is the fact that Three Little Birds is one of the most the most amazing childcare/preschool ever. Whenever I check out their blog I find myself wishing I was that age all over again…  seriously. Check it out. I’ll bet you never had this much fun when you were their age.
