Model in the Making

Baby Zara
02.19.12

A couple of weeks ago I was able to work with one of the best lil models I have worked with to date.  Baby Zara was a pro!  As you will see she kept constant eye contact with the camera.  Usually I am jumping up and down, shaking a toy, making funny noises just to get the lil ones to look in my direction, but not with Zara.  She was so inquisitive and wanted to know what the big thing was that was constantly in her face!  It was a good thing too because Zara is just gorgeous!  I love her big brown eyes!  Not only was she a pro with the camera but after three costume changes she didn't throw one fit!  Such a lil professional!  Oh and the highlight of the session was when we tried to make Zara sit on her own (she wasn't sitting on her own yet so we needed assistance from the ever popular "Boppy" pillow) and while trying to get her to sit...she really sat...all on her own!  Here are a few shots from our session and our lil model in the making.

 First shot of the day and already looking right at the camera!
 Those eyes are amazing!
 Sunbathing?
 It's more fun to be on my belly.
 Zara started making coos and gave herself the giggles.
 This is one of those shots that we photographers wait for...the money shot...where the subject looks just perfect!  This is my favorite shot of the day!
 Giving us those eyes again!
 This is so much fun!
 I love this one...she doesn't even know I am there and is in her own world.
 Spit bubbles are so fun!
 Third costume change.
 These thigh highs are ridiculously cute!
Let's end on some more spit bubbles shall we?  They are so much fun!

Baby in my belly!

Timmerman Family
01.27.12

I love how my photography has brought so many people back into my life.  One of them was my old client (and one of my favorites) so you can imagine my surprise when I was asked to do a session with her and her family.  Kristal was about seven months prego with her second bun in the oven.  I had the pleasure of meeting her husband, Brian and her very adorable, very independent lil one---Kaylee!  Oh what a sweet lil personality.  We first intended to take photos of Kristal but Kaylee wanted to be by her "mommmmmyyyyyyy."  There is nothing I love more than a lil munchkin who wants to pose so it was completely ok with me!  Kaylee noticed mommy was holding her belly in the pictures and thought she should do the same.  "Beebee in here?"  Here are a few shots from our session...oh and in one of my favorite cities; my home away from home, Austin!

 "Let me see what's in there!"
 Kaylee being sweet to the baby.

 I love the lighting in this one...so beautiful.
 Baby Timmerman brewing.
 Kaylee wanted to walk around on her own here.
 Proud daddy.

Baby Timmerman coming soon...
Session done...time to go home.
