James Gavin (11days) | Prattville AL Newborn Photographer

A full belly and a nice warm environment was all it took to convince this little guy to take a nice long nap!  He was so good and although he liked to grunt with most every movement he went right back to sleep.  It was hilarious!  He woke up in time for a snack and then returned to give me some incredible eye contact.  What a joy!  Congratulations Katie and Shaun on your new little man!  He is adorable!

Davis Reed (10days) | Montgomery AL Newborn Photographer

After Davis’s birth, I couldn’t wait to see him again for a newborn session.  I had so many fun things planned but he was not feeling very content and cooperative that day.  Here are a few of my favorites but he said I could come back for more another day!:)  I agreed and can’t wait to go for more snuggling tomorrow.  More to come from this little cutie!

Thomas (3yo) | Montgomery AL Child Photographer

Oh my sweet nephew is the absolute cutest!  He has always been such a joy to photograph and this time was no exception.  It was a super hot morning but he didn’t care.  He was all smiles and giggles!  Here are a few of many favorites from his session.

The pose was not planned but I love how he struck the same pose all on his own as from his 2 year session.

Hudson (3yo) & Sarah Jane (11 days) | Montgomery AL Newborn Photographer

Hudson has a new baby sister!  I can tell he loves his baby sister so much already!  She is absolutely beautiful and slept like a baby the entire time.  Here are a few of my favorites from their recent session.

Hudson went down to give her a kiss and decided to LICK instead!  What a brother! :)

Alex (2yo) & Evelyn (6mo) | Montgomery AL Child Photographer

You have to get up really early to beat the heat these days. These cuties had to rise and shine pretty early last week and I’m so glad they did because in less than an hour it was HOT!! Alex and Evelyn were champs and were so wonderful to work with. Here are a few sneak peeks for family and friends while finishing up the rest of their gallery.

I love her hand placement in this next one.  So dainty and lady like! :)
