| Jase | 3 Month Old Portraits | Decatur IL Studio |

I’m so excited to have Jase in our Baby Grows session schedule. These little ones grow SO fast (how is our own last baby already cruising quickly toward TWO years old?!?!) but I know we don’t need HOURS of session multiple times a year so we offer our Baby Grows families quick 25 minute sessions to capture these stages from newborn to two years old (yup, not just one year over here ya’ll that jump from 1 to 2 is HUGE).

This little model cruised through multiple outfit changes and was still a happy camper! I get to see his whole family in just a week or so for their full family session too so I get some bonus Jase time before his next solo session for 8 months. 😀

Seriously, these babies grow so darn fast and I’m so glad I get to be here for it! Check out Hudson’s latest time as a little model (he seriously melts my heart he’s always so happy to hang out with me for a bit and that feeling is so mutual!).

Want to see where this little model got his start haha?!? Mean-mugging me as a Newborn and literally ‘chilling’ for Maternity Portraits!

Hudson is a part of our special ‘Baby Grows’ session series which takes your baby from newborn (or before) all the way through their SECOND birthday. These are the days they change the most and we’ll follow right along so you never forget these times. Plus, we include a custom 5 image wall series for each baby to celebrate their ‘graduation’ into toddlerdom. Stay tuned for the rest of Hudson’s milestones!

That’s exactly what we did for this beautiful family. And it was wonderful to meet them on session and create images that can bring them all together even when they are afar.

| Miller Family Newborn Portraits | Decatur IL |

Guys!!! I get to make friends with a brand new Miller!! After photographing this beautiful family for years I’m so excited for them to have welcomed a brand new perfect little boy to the mix. He is so loved and with these two older siblings he’s super well looked after. Ellie was my own personal assistant on session and is so good with looking after him already.

I have such a soft spot in my heart (and a HUGE burst of gratitude) for the families that have been with me for years. I’m thrilled to say that I’ve been working with Myra since before this little lady existed! It’s been a treat to watch her grow (check out her first birthday session here) and we had such fun on her session this year playing in the dandelions.
