* heart * | Richmond Childrens Photographer

I always look forward to sessions with this darling family. See Mama was one of my first “stranger” clients nearly 3 years ago when she was prego with her first. We are far from strangers now. I feel more like an old friend or family member they pop in on every few months, it is comfortable, casual and the kids are very use to me.

This yummy little boy was my very first studio client for his newborn session and was a complete gem the entire time and now he is back at 6 months to ham it up even more. Luckily for Mom and Dad my husband would leave me if I brought home a baby, cause I would have stole him in a hot second! I just can’t wait to see them all again in 6 months!

Be prepared for the yummiest squishiest little boy ever (aside from my own of course :) ).

Little Man is 1! | Richmond Children’s Photographer

I just love my 1 year clients…and this one was no exception. We have ventured to many places together for our year full of sessions, and to end it at the beautiful Lewis Ginter Gardens in Richmond, Va was a refreshing treat (wild wedding coordinators aside…another story, for another day). This young man has just found his stride (sans knees) and wasn’t afraid at all to head off to see all he could see. So me on my toes, knees, full squat, wandered with him to explore the gardens…it was a blast!

Busy Busy Bee | Richmond Virginia Child Family Photographer

And when I say Busy Bee…I am not exaggerating! I have photographed this Little Miss when she was 4 months, 1 year and now at a precious and very explorative 2 years old. From the second she showed up in front of me at the park in Richmond she was in nearly full run the entire time. Not a problem…adjusted the camera to keep up with the faster pace…curled my toes up to keep my flip flops on in a slight crouching sprint (wishing I had packed my running shoes) and just started shooting. Yes, I have many of the back of her…cause apparently I was not the coolest thing out there to be exploring. But I assured her parents I would capture her (busy or not) and here is a little peek at our running session together.
