Lovely Little Lady | Murfreesboro Baby and Family Photography { frogs and faeries }

Let me first start by saying thanks to everyone for being so patient with their sneak peaks and gallery previews. I wish I knew of a way to clone myself, but so far, nothing has come up on my Google searches. :)

Meet Brylie (I think I spelled that right!) - such a sweet 10 month old. She is perfectly plump and cheery. Dad was a great help with the smiles, and wasn't afraid at all to get right in close to me. Thanks, Dad!

I love the tones in this one and how her eyes pop:

She was so happy | Middle Tennessee Baby Photography { frogs and faeries }

This one - she was all smiles. Mom told me that she was a morning girl, so we scheduled her appointment for 8:30 in the morning, and she definitely didn't disappoint! Addison was all smiles right up until the end when I snuck in a serious one!

I have so many cute ones in the outfit that it was hard to show only one!

Can you believe . . . | Middle Tennessee Maternity Photography { frogs and faeries }

That this hot mama is due in 18 days??? She's gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! Mom and Dad purchased our Mommy and Me package, so I'm excitedly awaiting Baby. Mom and Dad don't know the sex of Baby, but I'm guessing boy (so, you guys can go ahead and buy all pink, ok?). :)

I just upgraded to the newest version on Photoshop, so I'm playing around with a new logo. Something a bit more simplistic.

More to come | Clarksville Newborn Photography { frogs and faeries }

I promise that there will be more sweet images from this session, but I just had to post this one.

And I have some great maternity images to share too. Be on the look-out tomorrow!

As promised (although a bit later than scheduled) here are some more sweet images of Baby Trip.

All babies have a certain "thing" that soothes them. Be it rocking, back patting, shooshing, rubbing between their eyes, and it's my job to determine what this is in each baby I photograph. With Trip, it was a blanket - being swaddled in it, having it draped over him, or simply behind his back. Once I figured this out, he was out like a light!

Miss Callie Grace | Murfreesboro Baby Photography { frogs and faeries }

What a fun session! I've known Callie Grace's mom for a long time, and I couldn't wait to get my hands, umm camera, on her. She was in such a good mood - even after she bonked her head on my big flower pot! Thanks, Mom, for bringing her in! Enjoy!

It's been a while since I've had a 6 monther to do this shot on, and I've missed it!

The eyes are the window to the soul | Murfreesboro Baby Photographer { frogs and faeries }

I think Madison Claire pretty much proves that statement to be true! She has the most gorgeous chocolate brown eyes!

And another session with my favorite pink chair:

I seriously love pouty faces - and most of the time, I love them more than a big smile! Ahh! Gasp! Shocker! So, I, of course, love this image.

I knew as soon as I took this one that it would be my favorite! Add to it a little bit more dramatic processing, and BAM! One of my favorite shots of the summer!

The early bird gets the worm | Murfreesboro Newborn Photography { frogs and faeries }

I think that's probably Dustin's motto seeing as he was born over a month early! Dustin came to see me at 7 weeks old and just 6 lbs! Mom and Dad are head over heels in love with him. And why wouldn't they be? He is so cute!

Mom was a little worried that he wouldn't sleep since he tends to be a light sleeper, but I worked a little of my magic and got him to go night-night. I wasn't gonna press my luck by taking his onesie off though!

Meet Dustin. Mom said he was like this during all of his ultrasounds too!

I just had to show this one. Mom joked that they should nickname him Jack Nicholas!

He just looks so tiny in Dad's hands:
