sneak peek

…is what was running through my head as I proofed this session. How sweet, lovely & beautiful – an adorable baby boy with his pretty pretty mama – these two are a vision of perfection with the soft sunlight behind them :) And would you look at those big blue eyes?! Stunning indeed! He was such a calm, cool & collected little guy – he was a joy to photograph and I’m very much looking forward to our next session! Here are some of my favorites :)

Oh, em, gee! I can hardly believe my sweet girl is only a few days shy of three months! So sad, really – it reaally saddens me that she is growing up so fast. Can I just keep her this age forever? It’s such a cute cute age! I love everything about this girl – from her smell to the way to looks at me and even the way she cries. She’s a doll, a sweetheart, a precious angel…my baby girl. Here are some things she’s doing these days:

 

- Laughs with her tongue sticking out. I looove when she does this.
- Makes a coughing sound and smiles when something amuses her
- Keeps her hands in tight little fists with her thumb in between her index & middle finger (which is something I do, too)
- Curls her toes in and always keeps them together
- Naps horribly during the day (20 min catnaps), but sleeps 4-7 hours at night (score!)
- Loves to be held but does not like to be worn in a sling (booo! her brother loooved the sling)
- Loves bathtime
- Still needs to be swaddled for sleep
- Frowns (like her daddy), just as much as she smiles :)
- Has her daddy, brother & mommy wrapped around her little finger!

 


What do you think about the last side by side images? This is Emi and Drew around the same age. Do you think they look alike??? These two are definitely connected on another level. They manage to wake up at the same time every morning! Whether it be 6am, 6:30, 7:30 or 8am! They are up within minutes of each other – what in the world?!

Come on now, how cute is he with those sunglasses, beater & skinny jeans?! Oh my goodness! Yah, totally rockin’. He was so cool, in fact, that he had to nap mid session while daddy held him :P  Teehee, not only is he super cool, but he’s also super cute. Have you seen baby rolls and chubby cheeks as cute as his? And his eyes are seriously amazing – those long lashes and beautiful shape! Oh, how I love chubby wubby babies!

Gorgeous, sparkly blue eyes and a sweet, bubbly, sparkly personality to go along with them :) What a sweet, sweet baby girl! Not only is she beautiful with her charming smile and striking blue eyes, but she’s also got such a wonderful personality. She seemed quite easy going and just a happy girl all around. She gave me lots of different facial expressions – all of which were just as cute as the ones before! I can see why mommy and daddy are smitten :)

  • Kim Patten Amazing photos!!! Thanks so much Julie. We had a great time with you and even Ella (our crazy dog) was happy to get in on the action. Love the picture of Siena cracking up at Ella!(11.29.2011 04:26pm)

I know what you’re all thinking…something along the lines of “Oh my gosh, how cute, how absolutely cute”, or “He’s sooo adorable, I just want to squeeze his chubby wubby cheeks”. Yes, that is what I was thinking during our shoot, too :) Aand, would you look at big sister – so incredibly charming I must say. I can’t believe that the last time I photographed her, she was small enough to sit in a bucket and wasn’t even crawling yet :) Now she’s an energetic, funny, beautiful preschooler! My how time flies…and I just love that I’m able to capture these special times as their family grows!

…that’s the typical way my husband greets Emi. He calls her “Missy” – and so does my son. My nicknames for her include: Emi girl, Emi Reesey, baby girl & Em. I can hardly believe that she is 6 weeks now and weighing 9 lbs 9 oz. This girl loves to eat (unlike her bro, who always had a hard time eating). She also loves to sleep! Thank goodness :) She’s getting much better at tummy time these days and her hair is starting to grow back – she had cradle cap that started at around 11 days, and thanks to some Burt’s Bees Baby Oil, Bella B’s Organic Cradle Cap Shampoo & lots of brushing, it’s finally gone and the hair that fell out is coming back :) We actually had pro photos taken when she was 10 days old, right before the cradle cap started – so thank goodness for that! Now that she’s camera ready, I can keep sharing more pics! Here she is doing tummy time. I love her eyes….beautiful almond shaped peepers just like her brother (and daddy). I love her so much – these photos make me so happy :)

I also wanted to share some of my current must have baby items:
- Baby Connect iPhone App (Because what’s not to love about graphs on baby poo and nursing frequency? score!)
- Jewel’s “Lullaby” Album (Hello tears, makes me very weepy)
- Swaddle Strap – thanks to this lovely mommy. (Looks a little frightening, but it works!)
- Rocker (Folds so it’s easy to bring up and downstairs)
- Bassinet (So cute, and functional since Emi sleeps in our room)
- Tommee Tippee bottles (so daddy can feed while I’m at sessions) and WubbaNub Pacis (because they’re so cute)
- Mother’s Milk Tea (Really works! And tastes yummy)
Baby Monitor HD Camera & iPhone App (Uber cool. We use our iPhone, iPad & computer to view multiple cams at once all on one device instead of lugging multiple monitors around the house…perfect for when both kids are napping in different rooms)

 

It’s raining out right now! Time to go snuggle with my Emi girl and smell her sweet baby’s breath (I looooove). And take in all of her cuddly warmth. Sigh.

  • Ranee Kang Hello Missy! So cute! It'll be fun watching her grow up and her mommy is the best photographer. Lucky girl!(11.08.2011 12:05am)

Sometimes, the very best place to have a photo session is at home. There’s something so wonderfully cozy about sessions at home :)

  • Ranee & Sam Kang Hi Julie! Thank you so much for taking such beautiful pictures. They brought tears to my eyes. You captured our little Aiden and our family so well. You're the best photographer and we loved spending time with you. We'll be sure to keep in touch as our family hits more milestones in the coming years. Best wishes to you as you prepare for you 2nd bundle of joy! Much Love, Ranee, Sam, Aiden & Blacky Kang.(09.15.2011 05:57pm)
  • TK OMG -- he is beautiful! And these pictures -- wow, they should be published in a children's magazine. Thank you so much for sharing these special moments with me. Hugs and love, TK(09.15.2011 06:08pm)
  • Shreenivas and Shaila Mate Ranee and Sam, Shaila and I loved the pictures of Aiden. What a beautiful baby! Congratulations and best wishes to all of you. Shreenivas uncle(09.15.2011 08:25pm)

he’s still as cute as ever! But now he’s moved on from fist pumping to riverdancing :) What a sweet, sweet, beautiful little boy with equally sweet, awesome parents! I adore this bunch! They are so much fun, totally natural in front of the camera, and clearly smitten with their little boy…And who can blame them, he’s got the cutest little face that totally lights up when he smiles. And would you just look at that smile?!  With his 4 little baby teeth in perfect view! Soooo adorable! Things I really enjoyed during our session: his adorable smile, those baby teeth, his chubby diaper butt, his newly cut bangs, his cute little nose, his riverdancing in teeny baby shoes, his mommy’s beautiful laugh (and the way she crinkles her nose)…and how baby boy laughs so hard when daddy blows air in his face :)

…is the best word that I could think of to describe him. Sure, words like happy, smiley, giggly, jolly, adorably sweet, cuddly & super huggable also come to mind when thinking about him – but what I love most is how he’s just like a burst of SUNSHINE :) His big smile literally lights up his entire face (and the faces of everyone around him). I had a wonderful time hanging out with this amazing little boy and his parents! Not only is he a little (or, more like BIG) ray of sunshine, but I have to say that he’s also one of the most relaxed, easy going, cooperative tots I’ve photographed. Ever. Not a fussy moment the entire time we were together – he was literally all giggles :) Don’t you just want to give him hugs all day long? Such a sweeeetie pie!

  • Shannon Thank you Julie!!! The pictures are amazing, as usual. :) Sam had so much fun with you, he kept talking about you all day. Can't wait to see you again in December! <3(08.18.2011 07:47am)
