New Arrival : Jorja Leigh

Omygoodness there is something about little girls!  Perhaps it's because my little girl isn't so little anymore... but getting to meet tiny baby Jorja and hold the sweet girl melted my heart.  Her mommy, Carrie, is a good friend of mine.  We enjoyed being pregnant together and it's so fun to share new-mommy-ness as well. :)

We set up a makeshift studio in the front room of my house... and I think it worked pretty well!  Jorja did amazing - slept through most of it, gave me some smiles, and graciously didn't piddle on me when she was in her birthday suit. :)

Here are a few of my favorites from yesterday:

Brent, Ashley, and Jasper

Brrrrrrrr!!

It was so cold on Saturday morning, but these three were troopers!  The forecast had said no wind... but this is Kansas, so I guess I shouldn't have been surprised that it was cold and WINDY! :)

Brent and Ashley have an adorable son, Jasper, who is almost 2 1/2.  They hadn't had family pictures taken in a long time, so I was excited when Ashley contacted me!

I was also excited because this was my first shoot with my new camera!! (Thanks to the hubs for an early Christmas present :))

Thankfully, we did a mini-session (I don't think any of us would have lasted an hour...).

Here are a few of my favorites:

Chris, Ginny, and Emmalyn

Chris and Ginny are very dear friends of mine.  You may remember them from their maternity session, or from when their daughter Emmalyn Grace was born.  It's hard to believe that Emmalyn is one year old now!  My how time flies...

Ginny wanted some family pictures this fall, and I was more than happy to help out!  It was a bit chilly, but Emmalyn didn't seem to mind.  She kept us busy - she's so adventurous, and so cute!  I'm sure you'll agree, this is a beautiful family!!
