I really am getting my baby fix these last few weeks and I love it. Meet Nolan, 20 days old and alert as could be. He was more interested in what was going on around him than going to sleep, but eventually he did fall asleep… for a few shots, and I do mean a few. I really had a great time meeting him and his Mom and Dad, you will be seeing his sweet little face a few more times over the next year on my blog. Enjoy the sneak peek Angie and Josh, I look forward to sharing the gallery with you guys.

Meet Jennifer and Terry, the sweetest, cutest couple around. Jennifer has been one of my best friends for many years, and I am very excited to help her plan and be a part of her wedding day. I will not be their wedding photographer, because I am one of Jennifer’s bridesmaids, which I am VERY excited for. This will be a great opportunity to be on the other side of the camera.

Jennifer and Terry have a June wedding planned, and I’m sure they are both very busy getting all of the arrangements made. I was very happy to help check off “engagment photos”. We really had a great time, the smiles and laughs lasted all night. Terry you are getting a great girl! I wish you two many years of happiness, and I’ve excited to be a part of it all. Plus I get to hang out with Ron and Mary Lou, I bet they can’t wait :)

Congrats again, and enjoy the peek!

It’s amazing how much these two little guys are already so much alike. Isaac did some of the exact same things that Owen did during his newborn session. Thanks for great session Becky and Isaac, I look forward to photographing Isaac and Owen, and maybe Duke too :)

After many weeks of waiting, this past weekend was finally our weekend to bring home our little Reggie, he is a Black & White Tri colored, Cocker Spaniel. He has fallen right into place in our busy house, and is loved to pieces. As I type this blog post he is laying on my toes, which I’m sure he will do often.

I couldn’t wait to bring him into the studio to get some shots of him. I’m very thankful Tyson came with to help, otherwise I don’t think I would’ve been able to get a single shot of this little guy. Or at least not one with his eyes open. Reggie thought the studio was pretty cool, and about 20 minutes into the “session” he was just SO sleepy. He was just like a little newborn letting me pose and move him around.

So here he is, and yes I know picture overload, but he’s SO cute!!!

And this isn’t from the studio, but I just love this shot, Tyson is truly SO happy to have Reggie. After Yogi died the boy was pretty sad. I think He and Reggie will go on many adventures, and I’m sure they will both come back dirty and a story to tell!!

Today I spent the day looking back at all of my session from 2011. I can’t believe the year went by so fast, it seems like only a few weeks ago sweet Addison was here for her one year session, but se was acutally my first session of 2011!! KDB Photography really did have a fantastic year, I saw a lot of familiar faces and a lot of new ones as well. Every sessions was just as unique as the family, we had many laughs, a few tears, and a lot of smiles. I have to say that my most memorable moment from a 2011 was from a session w/ two little boys. I had them jump off a log and run toward me, well, they didn’t stop once they got to me, the proceeded to tackle me and I’m pretty sure I got licked on the face. It makes me laugh just thinking about it. Oh what I won’t do for the shot.

If you had a session with me in 2011, I would just like to say thank you for choosing me to capture a little piece of history for your family. With so many choices out there for photographers, I truly am greatful for all of my wonderful clients. You have helped make KDB Photography what it is today. I look forward to many great sessions in 2012.

Making Room For Baby | KDB McLeod County Newborn Photographer

Sometimes timing is everything, which was the case this past Saturday. The stars were aligned and things worked out so that I was able to shoot Katelyns newborn session at her house. While I was there we did a little lifestyle family stuff. Big Brother Dylan as always, and I do mean always a ball of energy. I have been photographing him since he was one, and everytime he is on the move. He reminds me so much of my now 9 year old son Tyson, from his energy to his tantrums, it’s who they are.

Kids go through their stages of life so quickly that sometimes while our kids are in a certain stage we can’t wait for them to move on and get to that next stage, meanwhile we are missing who they are that day. So having these little reminders of a certain face or certain toys really is a time capsule in the making. One day we will look back at these moments and wonder where the time went.

So enjoy part one of this two part blog post. I truly had a fantastic time Erik and Emily. You have two wonderful kiddos!
