Stella's First Birthday Party - Nashville, TN Baby Photographer

When Stella's mom asked me to photograph her first birthday party, I was excited to photograph another girl party. They are always cute and most often pink, which are two things I love. After meeting Stella and her family, I quickly discovered that she is a very lucky and very loved little girl. Not only did I photograph her party, but we also had an extended family session before her party. These are the first pictures that I edited, but I will have another post with those sneaks coming up soon!

The Goble Family

This little guy just turned 3 and really wasn't too interested in having his picture taken. I haven't met too many 3 year old boys that ARE into having their pictures taken, so I wasn't very surprised! His mom and dad were awesome and just had fun with it, and I think it made for the best pictures. They are so natural, with lots of laughing, and will hopefully make a great memory for their family.

Jodi and Tom: Maternity Session Part 2

Jodi is just the most gorgeous, glowing, pregnant momma. She rocked this session.

I am having so much fun picking my favorites. Then add in Tom, and they make the perfect expectant couple to photograph. They are so cute together and so much fun. I can't wait to see them become parents!

Thank you Jodi for putting up with me while I scoped out all of our spots downtown!

Jodi and Tom: Maternity Session

I can't stand making anyone wait for their sneak peeks, but especially a new momma. And this one is looking amazing! Jodi, I'll have the rest up soon!

The Lowry Family: 10 Month Session

Little Man Lowry was sick when I came in town for his 9 month session, so we had to turn it into a 10 month session. I always look forward to seeing this little guy. He surprises us each time with the such easy sessions. This time, he was all smiles and almost walking. I even got to witness a few first steps! I loved this session and had such a hard time picking my favorites.

The Nygren Family - 6 Month Session

The youngest Nygren is now 6 months old, and one happy, smiley little guy. Our goal for this session was a Christmas card picture, 6 month photos, and at least one smiling picture of big brother. I always look forward to my sessions with this family. They were one of my first families when I started my business, and I am so thankful to continue photographing them.
