Baby Ian!

Introducing baby Ian! He’s simply too cute for words! One of my favorite things about my Free February promotion is that I often get connected to brand new clients and I love meeting new people! Katie & Scott welcomed me into their home for this session with Ian. How fun are they? I wish I had a photo of me as a baby like this.

And this one, I think, is my favorite. Ian just is too cute and he’s loving life!

Proud mama.

Family time!

Scott & Katie, thank you for sharing your precious family time withe me! I hope you enjoy these images as much as I enjoyed making them!  Best, Beckie

Baby Anna!

I love, love, love photographing newborns. First born or eighth, doesn’t matter, a new baby is a beauty to behold. My latest newborn is Anna. Mom Julie called me in February and I photographed Anna right at 4 weeks.

Look at the pride on Julie’s face. Absolutely beautiful.

And time with dad. Anna is the first grand baby on both sides of her family, lucky, lucky, lucky….

I love me some sleepy baby time.

Especially when they do cute things in their sleep like snort or wiggle. I’m not gonna lie, I still watch my kids sleep.

Best baby blanket ever, EVER. Made by Julie’s aunt (who also made Julie’s wedding dress).

Note the curtains, they coordinate with the blanket. SO cute.

Julie & Billy, thank you for sharing Anna with me! She is adorable and you two are in for the adventure of a lifetime! Love every minute of it! Best, Beckie!

Big girl Lucy!

Oh how I love watching my bridal clients live such wonderful lives! I shot Erin & Nick’s wedding (11/06), then baby Lucy when she was brand new last year and now just before her 1st birthday!

The chair & backdrop were made for each other! And she is just TOO cute!

Erin & Nick! Thank you for sharing your family time and your lives with me! I love documenting your family! Best, ie

Little man Louis!

Louis’ mom is an old college classmate who I’ve reconnected with on FB. I’m photographing her best friend’s wedding this fall and Tricia wanted some photos of Louis (whom she feared was suffering as the second child). So I stopped in and we took care of that in no time! This first one is my favorite. Such a sweet moment…

But I also love this one.

What a smile! Louis was enjoying watching cars pass, as I think any boy would.

And big brother Henry.

Tricia, thanks for sharing your family with me! I look forward to the complete family photos in the Spring! Best, Beckie

Baby James & Baby Julia!

Oh how I love babies! And as with many things, 2 are better than 1! (Especially when they don’t wake ME in the middle of the night!) So I got to photograph James & Julia, two of the sweetest 9 months olds I’ve encountered! It was a quick, simple session, done just in front of the door to their house. Beautiful natural light for two naturally beautiful babies. (sigh) Enjoy.

First, James, on the move…

This is *so* James….

Love, love, LOVE this one.

And now, sweet Julia…

She’s killing it with those eyes….

And the wrinkly nose!

And big brother Michael joins the crowd for just a minute.

Laura & Ed, thank you for your time, your family is beautiful! Best, Beckie

Free baby sessions!

Once again I’m offering free baby sessions during the month of February to all babies under the age of 1. Sessions will be at my studio or in your home. After the initial in-studio viewing images will be put online for 3 months. So save that session fee and spend it on reprints!

Until you get photos of your own little bambino, enjoy these images from last year’s free-ness!

Grace – 6 month session!

A few fall portraits of one of my favorite families. I shot Jennifer & Chris’ wedding and now am documenting their entry into parenthood! Gracie is just too cute and too sweet!

I just love this moment….

Jennifer & Chris, thank you so much for sharing so much of your lives with me! I can’t wait to see Gracie walking!! ie

Baby Grace!

Another former bridal client’s baby! I photographed Jennifer & Chris’ wedding in November of 04, before I was even a mom! Tonight my kiddos got to oh & ah over their baby Grace. How cool? So cool.

Favorite!!

Another favorite….

And I love seeing my clients interact… still great friends. Yes, it’s a favorite.

Jennifer & Chris: thank you, thank you! I look forward to continuing to watch your family grow! Congratulations! Best, Beckie

Baby Lucy!

I absolutely love my job, truly I do. One of the best things (and highest compliments) is when a client returns. I photographed Erin & Nick’s wedding in 06 and now get to document them as parents. How cool is that? It’s way cool.

FYI – Erin’s an art teacher, so she as a major edge in the creative department. 😉

Baby makes 3! (I still remember their wedding…..)

Love this one!

Erin’s mom dropped by to see me… well, to see Lucy but she saw me too. 😉

She is a doll.

Lucy’s signature look.

Erin & Nick, thank you so much for sharing this time in your lives with me. I can’t wait to photograph your family again! Best, Beckie

Baby Gavin

Meet baby Gavin, he’s got spunk…

He’s just too cute…. and I think he might know it.

These photos were taken in their den – gorgeous light.

Katie & Frank, thanks for introducing me to the cuteness that is your son! See you soon! Best, Beckie
