Welcome to the World Gabriel John! {Fresh 48’s}

August 31, 2018

I will never tire of these Fresh 48 sessions. It’s just the most wonderful feeling meeting these fresh, squishy new babies who just joined the world.
I arrived at a bit of a crazy time for Gabriel’s session but my goodness, it was worth it! His dad has most definitely achieved “master swaddler status”.

You can tell he had been practicing.

Gabe would quickly calm down in his mom and dad’s arms..
clearly content and ooh-so-happy to be with them.

His little grunts and squeaks, and soft little smiles he’d flash for us was almost too much for me.

Happy BirthDay Gabe!

It was such an honor to capture your very first session! Looking forward to his newborn session.

Waiting for Baby

I am so looking forward to capturing this family’s newest little addition in the next coming weeks.

Big brother is cuter than ever and so ready to welcome his new sibling. And can we just talk about how gorgeous this mama is?

Happy First Birthday Lennox!

July 17, 2018

This little guy is as cute as they come. In lieu of a cake smash, his mom chose watermelon instead. Best. Smash. Ever!
Lennox LOVED the watermelon…especially poking and squishing it. 😉 He loved the bath just as much and loved making a mess of it . Right before we left, I spotted a gorgeous wildflower field so of course, we had to stop there as well. Is not his mama and him just gorgeous?
Can’t wait to share this gallery with Lennox and his family. Happy Birthday little dude. It was so much fun capturing your first year!

FACEBOOK- Sorry followers…I’m locked in a purgatory Facebook.

July 16, 2018

Wednesday, July 11th, I woke at 6:30am to a friend’s text message asking me if I had gotten hacked.

Pardon me? I ask. She then shows me a screen cap of my profile picture…with my name changed out to be an Arab name.
Weird, I think…
In a panic, I quickly go to my facebook app and sure enough…. I’m locked out. I try all the alternate emails , phone numbers. Nope… this guy was good.

I go to my email and find out he had gotten on just TWO Hours before and had hacked into my email AND then onto my Facebook page. Changed ALL my security settings and options for both my email and my facebook profile, and completely locked me out of both by changing all security settings to his own Arab phone number and name and email.
Well fabulous. .

This can be fixed, right???
Each day I’m thinking more and more it’s probably a big, fat NO. After lots and lots of emails to facebook (which by the way..finding a way to contact facebook…ESPECIALLY when you are locked out…is incredibly hard to do. So after several days and a lot of tears of frustration, I finally got a screen that came up during one of my noramal attempts to log on from facebook . Facebook sent me a link to upload my ID to prove who I was. In the meantime, facebook deactivated my account. And the next day…they disabled it. Wow. Thanks facebook for fixing that problem.

We are now going on day 5 and still no word from facebook. In the meantime, I have been spending EVERY. WAKING. HOUR trying to contact all of my amazing clients who I had been speaking with on my business page on facebook to inform them of this unfortunate mess and get into contact with them.

If you have been speaking with me on Facebook and haven’t gotten a response. I promise, I’m not ignoring you….just have a completely disabled account. PLEASE send me a text or you can email me from here to Flutterbugphoto@yahoo.com.

Hopefully they WILL give me back my account. After finally reaching 3100K followers, Hundreds of amazing, amazing clients, and YEARS of hard work to get to where I am… Facebook took me down. We will not even get to my personal page with so many special memories and photos that I will never get back. (yep…. tears are flowing again).

So until then friends, please just be sure to contact me this way. I will be posting ALL mini session sign ups here on this website. I will also be posting all sneak peeks here. Sorry for the inconvenience and hopefully I will get out of this Facebook purgatory and can be back and running soon.

Welcome to the world Brady! ~3 weeks New~

Welcome to the world Brady! ~3 weeks New~

Newborn photography is my jam. And one of my favorite ways to capture these new little ones is by doing Lifestyle sessions.
Nothing is more sweet than capturing a sweet baby in their new nursery…all carefully set up and made just for them weeks and sometimes months before they arrived. This little guy’s nursery was positively adorable . I was so excited to capture him in it. Just check out that sweet teepee and the perfect color coordinated walls and mobiles??

Not into lifestyle photography? That’s ok! I offer adorable posed newborn photography in my studio as well!

Welcome to the world Clark! ~7 weeks new~

July 14, 2018

This sweet little dude was just SO fun to work with . Mom called me and was hoping to get him in for a session as little guy had been born 6 weeks early and hadn’t gotten in for a session yet. Luckily, this little man slept through it all and was just a rockstar in his posing and even cracked a couple sweet smiles for us.
