baby ann chandler and her adorable family :)

It’s been quite awhile since baby ann chandler’s birthday party, so when Caroline and I finally got our dates together for a family session, I could barely wait. I just wanted to head up the mountain and spend some time with them before they could grow up any more.

Ann Chandler decided that we were going to be best friends the second I walked through the door.

Nelson was a camera hog. He constantly wanted me to take his picture :)

And Jack… well Jack has grown up so much.

Caroline has her hands full with these three…

In love with this little face…

“Take my picture, take my picture!”

Lucy is Caroline’s first baby… She’s getting old, but she’s still Caroline’s baby.

Ann Chandler’s favorite book is Dick & Jane. She chooses that book every time she wants to be read too. Cute, right?

There’s always something fun going on around this house. I want to come over and play more often :)

Caroline had purchased these fun mustaches…and the kids had a blast playing with them.

One of the family’s favorite things to do is to have dance parties. Nelson turned on some music, and suddenly all of the kids ran to the front room and started dancing like crazy. It was awesome!

And I love all of these little moments that were captured during the crazy dancing… this family amazes me.

Nelson and Ann Chandler are such cute little buddies. I loved watching their interaction.

And finally, one last picture of Lucy to finish out our session…

Caroline and Nelson… I’m going to miss you guys :) I hope you enjoy your slideshow.

Baby Christian and his big brother Cole… round two.

Baby Christian and his big brother Cole are so adorable. Baby Christian is three months old, and he’s absolutely perfect. (It’s been so fun to watch these babies grow up… baby preston, baby callaway, and baby christian were all born within a week of each other, and I am so excited to capture their similarities and their differences!)

Baby Christian looks SO much like Cole did at this age. It’s amazing.

Erika is completely in love with her new baby… and he is in love with her. He smiles so easily when she is around.

Cole has become such a big boy… It’s almost Christmas, and he’s got an Elf on the Shelf watching him… He’s trying so hard to be good.

I love Baby Christian’s nursery. I’m going to love shooting in that room. So many great details, and such great light.

I love how animated Baby Christian is. He’s never still, for even a moment. He’s always talking and moving around. So cute.

Cute, right?

He has the most perfect little mouth.

Tim and Baby Christian are adorable together.

Cole is the smartest three year old I’ve ever had the opportunity to meet. He picked up the book, Elf on the Shelf, and read the whole thing. It wasn’t memorized, but read. I was very impressed!

Latte is still the king of the family… at least he thinks so.

Toes and eyelashes. Always my favorites.

Cole’s a pretty cute kid, don’t you think? :)

And Christian is adorable. Erika and Tim managed to make some adorable little boys:)

Everything about this family makes me smile.

Brothers.

Can’t wait to see this family again.

Erika and Tim… I am so glad I had the chance to hang out with you guys again…I can’t wait til next time. Your boys are so adorable, and I really enjoy the time I spend with all of you! I hope you enjoy your slideshow.

much love,

amber.

Baby Callaway…session two.

Baby Callaway is now three months old…and although I wouldn’t have thought it was possible, she’s already gotten cuter! I’m in love with her easy smile and sparkly eyes!

Josh and Chris have fallen into such a comfortable state of parenthood… They are naturals!

Lots of mommy and baby snuggling going on in this house…

Do you see what I mean about her easy smile and sparkly eyes?

A quick bath was also on the schedule for the day.

And a snack… Photoshoots are hard work.

Josh is a great dad. Baby Callaway is completely enamored with him.

Seriously… in love with this child.

I love the way that babies often react to being kissed. It always makes me laugh :)

A bit of swinging.

And then some sleeping.

And oh… these lashes. This baby has the most amazing lashes.

Chris and Josh… your baby girl is absolutely beautiful. I just wanted to remind you of that. I can’t wait to see you guys again. I hope you enjoy your slideshow.

hugs!

Baby Everest & his big sister Ada…round four.

Baby Everest and his big sister Ada are the cutest kids ever. And their parents are so much fun. I just love being around them. They make my job ridiculously easy.

Everest is seriously the cutest thing I’ve ever seen. I’m completely in love with his eyes.

And he has such perfect little toes.

Jimmy and Everest are so cute together… Jimmy is such a good dad.

Family time.

Um, how cute is this?

Roughhousing is a routine part of life when you’ve got an active toddler. Ada loves it.

I cannot get over how cute Everest is. Those eyes… those eyes…

Everest takes his eating very seriously. He does not like to wait…not even for a second.

While Everest was having his lunch, Jimmy and Ada were enjoying a few minutes together.

Everest has gotten so big, so fast. He’s already strong enough to pull himself up and stand.

Eyelashes and feet. Favorites.

Brittany is so beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.

Family reading time.

Everest was getting sleepy…

So Brittany and Ada read him a story and got him ready for bed.

Now do you see why I love photographing this family? They’re amazing. Amazing.

Brittany and Jimmy, thanks for hanging out with me again. I had a blast, as always, and I can’t wait until the next time I get to photograph your family again! In the meantime, I hope you enjoy your slideshow :)

Welcome to the world Baby Marc!

Several weeks back, our family had the opportunity to welcome the adorable Baby Marc into the world. It has been quite awhile since I have done a session for Jason and Theresa and Brianna, but I have a feeling you’ll be seeing a lot more of them, now that Baby Marc has arrived.

I was supposed to be out of town with Nathan, but at the last minute prior to the trip, I made the decision to stay home. Just a couple of days into the trip, I got a call from Theresa saying that she was in labor and headed to the hospital. I was so excited that I was in town and available to get to the hospital to photograph the big day.

Theresa was in such great spirits. I was kinda amazed by how calm she was. Her sister, Michelle, was there to support her, and the three of us had a great time just hanging out during the early stages of Theresa’s labor.

Jason arrived a bit later on, and he had Brianna with him. She was very curious about all of the monitors that were attached to her Mommy… and she was VERY impatient for her baby brother to arrive.

Theresa tried to get a bit of sleep, but I have no idea how she managed with all of the nurses and monitors and alarms.

Theresa stayed so strong and calm, even during the hardest phase of labor. I was amazed by her spirit.

And suddenly, a beautiful baby boy was introduced to the world. He was perfect.

Jason looks like quite a happy new daddy, doesn’t he?

Baby Marc was a big boy… Isn’t he perfect? 21 inches. 8 pounds 5 ounces. Perfect.

Little bitty hands…little bitty feet.

Love those first snuggles…

Healthy set of lungs… :)

Brianna was very happy to meet her new baby brother. The first thing she said about him was “He’s not wearing any clothes. He’s wearing a hat. He’s so silly!” Something about that struck me as adorable :)

There was such an amazing sense of family in the room… Everyone was so excited.

There were a few quiet moments in the midst of all the family fun…

Brianna holding her baby brother for the first time.

Theresa had a few moments to snuggle with both of her babies…

It was a very good day. Baby Marc is pretty great, don’t you think?

Congratulations Jay and Theresa… we are SO happy for you guys. Marc is perfect. Can’t wait to see you all again. I hope you enjoy your slideshow!

much love,

amber
