Photographing the Barnes Family is one of life’s special treats for Lila and I. Andrew is one of Lila’s best friends and she loves when she gets to ‘help’ me edit a Barnes Family session. 2010 was a busy year for Andrew, he became a big brother! Here are some of my favorites from a session right before Baby Brother George arrived. I love the chance to photograph families right before a new sibling arrives. It is such a special time to document. Here are just some of my favorites!

And then later this fall George arrived! He quickly became a special new Baby Brother to Andrew and our family! Meet the famous George and Andrew in his new role as Big Brother!

It is hard to believe but we will be photographing George’s Three Month Session soon. Barnes Family get ready ABP can’t wait to spend this New Year with you all! Thanks for all the fun!

Happy New Years Everyone!

I have never felt so grateful. The past few months have been more than busy with so many of my wonderful families. Some I see every year around this time and I get to ohh and aww over how my sweet families have grown and changed over the past year. And some sweet little ones I even get to see every three months. I just love being a part of the family’s first year as each new baby grows and astonishes us. This is truly a time of feeling thankful. Drew Scott you and your sweet family are one of those families that leave me feeling nothing but love and thankfulness. Here are just a few of my favorites from Drew’s newborn session!

Thank you Amy and Andy for all the love and trusting me to capture this time that goes way too fast for you all. I love you Drew Scott and can’t wait to see you again soon!
