Newborn Baby Girl

I am so lucky to have been in NJ last month when my newest niece was born. She had a hard time settling into a nap for her photos, so we finally swaddled her up tight and she finally gave in and fell asleep. (I also sent my sister into her room to take a nap, too!)

She is absolutely beautiful, don't you think?!?

 My sister made these two hats!

Thank you to Little Purple Dragonfly for this awesome flower headband.

The blanket in the next image was my sister's blankie so I had to make sure I used it in a few pictures.

BIG yawn!

Back To School

Last summer my daughter started Kindergarten in the same month that she turned 5. I had this great idea to take pictures of her in a school uniform-type outfit. A year later, I have finally gone through the photos and have them ready to post. Are you getting ready to send your child off to start preschool or elementary school for the first time? Recognize this important time by taking some photos of your child. :)

Nothing says school, like a uniform...

a desk...

and an apple for the teacher.

Love the leopard print shoes!

I had to make sure I had a photograph of her gorgeous, long hair. A couple weeks after we took this photos, she had it cut and donated it to Locks of Love! I was so proud of her!

She LOVES her American GIrl dolls. Felicity was her first, so I needed to make sure that we included her in some pictures!

I realized recently that I have been posting a ton of pictures on Facebook and neglecting this blog. I am going to try to change that! Not only am I going to try to post more of my pictures, but also other info that might be helpful for people planning portrait sessions and learning about photography.

Here are some of my favorites from a First Communion mini-session with the most handsome 8 year-old boy that I know! You can see more of my First Communion Session portraits on my Facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Laura-Ann-Photography/61759168928
