  7. What beautful photos. I keep seeing some many great family photo sessions that I think it is time to have some done of my own family.

  8. I love them all! You have a great eye and the colour is wonderful. My only bugaboo (and this is my totally personal POV!) is with newborn shots like the top one with the little arms crossed. I know it's meant to look cute, and I realize I'm in the minority here (but you asked!!) but I personally find poses like that oddly contrived and unnatural. Then you have shots of babies sleeping... which in contrast are all so beautiful and authentic. KWIM? :)

  9. I totally know what you mean, Andrea! My mom finds them kind of creepy! I certainly don't look at those really posed shots and think, "Aw, how beautiful!". I do find them cute and funny though.

    (And letmetellyou, getting a sleeping baby into that pose is often HILARIOUS. It's just so much fun to fold and squish and pose those little bodies. Seriously. My kids are lucky I wasn't doing this when they were newborns cause I would've spent the first two weeks of their lives posing them and sticking them in all manner of pot/bowl/basket.)

    The things is, parents seem to love them and often hire me based on having seen similar poses. But it doesn't always work out and I let them know not to expect too much.

    I just hope for each session that I'm able to find a balance between the contrived, posed shots and the more natural capturing-those-fleeting-moments shots. KWIM?

    As always, I appreciate the feedback. Truly.

  10. What a wonderful variety of family and baby shots! Each one is so unique and special.

  11. Agreed! It is a fine balance for sure. And we can't help what the parents want & love. Art is soooo subjective.

  18. Sorry I'm so late in getting around to visiting those that signed my linky last week. Busy summer I guess. :)

    These all are just beautiful!

  19. I'm finally catching up on my visits! So glad I came over your way, because: Oh, my! As always. I need to hire you. I particularly love all the family shots, because I know getting a whole passel of people to look artsy at the same moment is often a tall order. :)
