Baby's first 4th of July!
It was my bubba's first 4th of July yesterday! On that day last year I went into preterm labor with him and had to go to L&D. It was definitely not fun but he waited it out and decided not to be born that day after all. This year he was amazed by the fireworks. He just looked at the sky and said "whoa" the whole time :) I loved it. It was so fun for me to see how something so small could make my baby so happy.

She told me before the photo shoot that everytime they had taken Will to a portrait studio they were not pleased with the result. They could never get a picture of him smiling or looking at the camera. My main goal going into this session was to give his mother a beautiful picture of her amazing little boy smiling. I loved taking pictures of Will. He was so full of life and such an amazing child. I got some pictures of him smiling and it made my week. It made his mom happy too and I'm so glad that I could capture him smiling for her!

When I graduated Highschool I got a job, my first job, at a place called Kiddie Kandids. It was a photography studio that specialized in Children's photos. We also did a lot of family and maternity portraits as well. I was nervous at first..to do a job like that you had to be very outgoing and get completely out of your element to capture the childs attention. Once I got used to the job though I fell in love with it. To see the smile on a mother or fathers face once they've seen the finished product of what I had created for them made me feel so happy for them and complies her in what I’d set out to do . I loved being able to create a memory for a parent that t...
