S. Family Portraits

I believe I told you all that I'd post about Sophia's family pictures. Well, here they are! This family is SO much fun! They are full of energy and the kids are SO polite. It got a little hectic because the mosquitoes were out, but I do believe I got some good pictures. :) And of course you get those really cheesy grins or those "I'm-hating-this" face.

Sophia Joy | One Year Party

You have seen baby Sophia a lot around this blog, and I was so happy to be asked to photograph her one year party. The party consisted on close friends and family. There were a TON of cute kids, which I wish I could have photographed separately as well! As you can tell, she has the cutest smile. She also has some super cute older siblings that I will post about in an upcoming post.

8-Month Old | Baby S

I've never done a 8/9-month old before, so this was really a fun session. It was my first paid session. I really enjoy the results. The whole process was hard because I also had to look after 3 other kids (ages 2, 5, and 7), but again, LOVE some of the photos I got. Isn't she adorable?!? It always looks like she's frowning, but it's just her chubby cheeks that make her mouth droop. :P

P.S. She was also my first newborn session. See those pictures and how I've improved HERE.

Sophia Joy|Newborn Session

 Here are a few of the newborn pictures I took. I still am not done editing them, so I'll probably do another post with a few more pictures.

 She was awake the whole time, except for a few at the end when she was tired and fussy.

 I'm sure you've seen the one above, I share it with everyone, everywhere. I honestly think it turned out the best.

 The family had the cutest hats and headbands for me! They added a pop of color and they were so awesome!

 I honestly did not like editing these photos. Why? Because I really want a baby sister now. Like REALLY badly! Haha! :D I know adoption has crossed my parents mind, but it's really expensive.

 I think a lot of the pictures didn't turn out, but I took so many that I think I got a couple of good photos.

She was almost 4 weeks when I took Sophia pictures. It's a little later than intended, but I'm sure the family will like a few of the pictures. This was my first scheduled session and my first newborn session so I was really excited about this!

That's all for now! Any advice? Do you have a favorite?

Sophia|Teenage session

One recess, I decided I really wanted to take pictures of my friend. So, therefor I did! Here are the pictures of my friend Sophia. 

 I didn't exactly tell her I wanted to take her pictures, but you know, she loved it!

 I'm personally not a big fan of ^this picture, but she liked it so, you know, that's a compliment and I love getting compliments!

 I got a lot of good pictures, so be warned.

 ^My favorite of the session!

 Do you see her earrings? Yeah, I made them! She is the only person that really likes my earrings and buys them.

 When we first were taking photos in ^this spot, we didn't know that there were ticks. The *principal* (because we were at school) said that we shouldn't go there because there are ticks. *aka, my dad.

 ^Thanks to Belle at livineachday4him.blogspot.com I was able to get this picture to look really cool from a technique she taught me.

 What a pretty girl!

I have BIG news! I am having my first real session coming up. We are planning it and everything! I am going to be taking pictures of a baby girl, also named Sophia. I am SO excited and I will definitely be sharing pictures! :D

Have a blessed Tuesday everyone!
