The Face of Four | Outdoor Children Photography Dayton, OH

My second daughter recently had a birthday (oaky, nevermind it was 6 weeks ago and we still have party decorations up), and we finally got out to take some fresh pictures for the grandma’s walls this past weekend. She loves this petticoat skirt. I love her in it. Before long, she won’t want to have anything to do with it, so I’ll soak it up as long as I can.

Christian Artist | Head shot and Lifestyle Photography, Dayton, OH

I have met an amazing songwriter and singer at my church over the past 9 months- Jennifer Jolene is an up and coming Christian artist with some musical talent in her! We had a great time capturing some shots for her music page- keep an eye out for this one, I can’t wait to see where the Lord will take her and her beautiful spirit!

Hands down, favorite shot of the evening- I love what my 70-200mm f/2.8 whips up with creamy sunset light.

Thanks for a fun evening, Jenn! Best wishes with your singing and songwriting career :)

Welcome to the World, Baby Boy! | Dayton Newborn & Baby Photography

Mama contacted me on Friday with a brand new one-week-old baby boy at home looking to get some newborn pictures done. I love that my husband can be flexible with Saturday shoots and I happily agreed to do Baby N’s shoot Saturday afternoon.

How precious is this little guy?

He looks so happy in the basket, doesn’t he? We took about twenty frames, I think he might have blinked here!

 

Here’s a favorite- I just love this plaid outfit he’s wearing. In case you were wondering, browns and blues photograph very well, I think. Especially on sleepy newborns.

Mom and Dad are smitten- and doing very well considering they are brand new parents!

Here’s the good lookin’ family one last time:

Thank you for the opportunity to be your photographer during such a special time in your life, S & S :) Congratulations, again!

A Nice Spring Day in Dayton | Children & Family Photography Dayton, OH

It was so refreshing to be outside shooting in the sunshine again this past weekend. There is a darling little garden in an older part of Dayton that  I’ve quickly grown fond up- and the daffodils just recently bloomed there greeting this family with color. Little S wasn’t sure about me, but we were getting along fine with smiles after awhile.

 

Thank you for the opportunity to capture you all, “C” Family :)

Small Spaces, Big Personalities | Dayton Children and Dayton Family Photography

Such a fun-loving bunch that came to visit my studio this past weekend! When Mom and I discussed what she was hoping for in a studio session, she mentioned that natural shots were more than okay for her party of five. Good thing, these kiddos have some big personalities, I loved it!


This is just a little behind the scenes out take- I was trying to set the kids up for a three in a row shot, but the kids all kind of did their own thing. Never mind that the stools or colors don’t match, & the heights of the heads are off by feet, I just love how full of life this capture of all three of them is:

Thank you for the opportunity to be your photographer, “C” Family!!

Early Valentine’s Session | Dayton Family and Children Portrait Photography

Enjoy your sneak peek!


  One of my favorite family shots:

Meet Baby Adam | Dayton, Ohio Newborn, Baby, and Family Photography

In 15 minutes, this baby in a Santa’s hat will have expired the phrase ’tis the season, so I thought I’d squeeze him in. Welcome Baby Adam and congratulations to the Swensons! Such a privelege to capture your little guy so fresh and new.

So much to be thankful for | Dayton Baby, Newborn and Family Photography

This is just a quick peek at the sweet newborn that visited me this past weekend! Baby C arrived just two days before Thanksgiving, making his family feel even more blessed over the Thanksgiving weekend! Enjoy!

Family Studio Portraits | Dayton Family and Children Photographer

If it weren’t for the chilly weather we have been experiencing here this past week, this family would have met me outdoors. But with two little ones in tow, we changed locations at the last minute. I met mom at playgroup at the end of the summer, we were fast friends - plus her oldest and my youngest are right about the same age. And also, fast friends. But in a different context if you know what I mean- little two year olds like to run!

Enjoy your sneak peek, “M” family!
