Meet Mason! Adorable Mason! When I photographed her, she was just 12 days old. She is such a sweetheart! As I arrived, she was waking up and preparing for her first official photo shoot. And did she work it out!!! She followed me and my lens with her baby blue eyes, yawned on command, and seemed mesmerized by the click, click, click of my shutter. Her parents, Sean and Kristen, are so proud of their new daughter, as are her grandparents and all of her relatives and friends. Are you ready for this little bundle of cuteness?

Mason is protected by Elbog, a sweet English chocolate lab, Bailey, the fluffiest white cat ever, and Meadow, seen here sharing some kitty kisses. Awww!

Daddy’s little girl.

Look at these toes!!!

One of my many favorites.

Another favorite. This one puts a tear in my eye. What a happy family!

Congratulations, Sean and Kristen! You are already great parents! Mason, you are just adorable. See you soon!

This family shoot was the perfect way to end 2008! I had so much fun, I could have kept them out all day long! We braved the cold, windy weather and had a blast. Lindsay, Michael, and Daniel’s Mom Starla flew in from Arizona, while Daniel and Amber traveled from California. They wanted some photos to document their time together. What a perfect way to have some family fun! Thank you so much for being energetic, genuine and expressive! Check out some highlights from our afternoon adventure in downtown Indianapolis.

Going up!

Another cute family! Thank you to Russ, Kelli and Thad for spending some time with me on such a chilly night! I had lots of fun and hope that you did too!

Thad had fun decorating the tree while listening to holiday music to get in the spirit.

I love this one – mother and son.

Time for a story under the tree.

Father and son share a good book.

Thad is 16 months old and has tons of energy! He’s always on the move!
I just love this candid shot!

What a sweet family! Thank you, Russ, Kelli and Thad!

Can’t wait to do some outdoor photos with you guys!

Happy New Year to you!

What a warm, caring, fun family! There is no shortage of laughter in this household! Kevin, Jennifer, Max and Abbey radiate happiness and love. Yes, this may sound cheesy, but it’s true! Just take a look for yourself, and you’ll see exactly what I mean.
