2023 came and went, and not once did I think to publish a blog post! Between working two jobs, and being a mom to three busy teens, the weeks and months literally flew by.
So how about just a quick recap of the year… starting first with some of the adorable newborns of 2023.
This year I offered two different sets for holiday mini sessions, and I still can’t pick a favorite. The sweet and cozy Christmas bed matched up perfectly with smiling kids in winter pajamas, but the classic fireplace hearth is timeless and beautiful. Which would you prefer for your holiday cards?
With an active two year old at home and a very busy business on their hands, mom and dad thought they could add another baby to their family and things would be great. Well things are better than great, because instead of one baby, they got two! Meet Mila and Jaxson… oh so sweet and oh so loved. Welcome to this crazy world, kiddos.
Well it’s official, we have our first round of quarantine babies! and what cuties they are! The past couple of months I’ve photographed some sweet new babes born near the end of this crazy quarantine. I’ve also had the pleasure of setting up the studio for a couple of fun cake smash sessions. The next few months will be full of outdoor family and beach sessions, so keep an eye out for more session updates!
Meet Hazel. She is sweet as can be, and oh so loved by her two awesome big sisters. Hazel is calm and gentle, happy and beautiful. I had such a fun morning at the studio with Hazel and her family. Welcome, little one.
Meet Natalie… the first Piggy Toes newborn of 2021, and she did not disappoint! She slept like a dream and has the most perfect baby skin. Welcome, Natalie. You are so loved.
Anthony is back, and he’s one year old! Anthony is a sweet, curious, silly little boy and I have such a fun time with him and his mama. He loved to ‘bang bang’ on his cake, and sing along to his favorite songs at the studio. Happy birthday, Anthony!
Amidst the chaos and uncertainty of 2020, one thing is still true… babies + cake = adorable.
I love the tradition of letting baby smash their very own cake during a First Birthday portrait session. Some babies love the cake, some hate it, but either way, it’s 100% adorable.
Here are some of my favorite First Birthday session memories of 2020. And a big thanks to Melanie at Sweet Stuff Bake Shop (Norton, MA) for creating the amazing smash cakes.
There’s no doubt that 2020 will be a year that none of us will forget. Schools closed, toilet paper shortage, sanitizing everything, masks, limited gatherings….
But these families will remember 2020 for a much better reason. They welcomed a perfect bundle into their homes.
Let’s look back at the adorable Piggy Toes babies of 2020.
I had the best morning with this beautiful family, who just welcomed a new baby sister to the mix. She’s calm and sweet and oh so pretty, and so loved by her parents and big brothers and sister. All of the kiddos were so well behaved, and I love every single image in her gallery.
This age is definitely a favorite of mine… just when baby can sit unassisted, but isn’t quite ready for crawling.
Beautiful Maeve was such a pleasure to photograph, with her creamy skin and adorable little smile. I’m already looking forward to her birthday session this winter.
This sweet face is the latest Baby Plan graduate, and it’s been quite a year. I’ve loved watching sweet Emma grow this year and getting to know her family.
This family is always such a pleasure to photograph. The kids are as sweet as they are beautiful, and it was so nice to spend time catching up with their mom and grandma. Baby Henry is oh so loved, and he is such a lucky boy to have so many people love him.
It was such a fun morning, spent with this adorable family. Big sis Ava is sweet and silly, while her baby brother is handsome and calm. I loved watching Ava snuggle with her baby.. already such a good sister! So much for love for one tiny baby.
I love when families return to the studio for the second, or in this case, third baby! It’s so fun to catch up with the parents and see how the older siblings have grown… not to mention get in some sweet baby snuggles. This handsome baby boy is already oh so loved. Welcome, sweet boy.
I had the most fun morning with these two sweet faces. We giggled, tickled, sung songs, and had such a fun time. The best part was when big sister decided to help her brother with his cake. And what followed was pure magic. Happy Birthday, handsome boy!
Meet Marissa. She’s just as sweet as she beautiful, and couldn’t have joined a more loving family. Her big brothers love to snuggle and hold her, and mom and dad are definitely thrilled to have a baby girl to balance out their home. Welcome, sweet little one.
I had the pleasure of working with this family almost four years ago for big brother Owen’s newborn session… and I was so excited when I heard he was going to be a big brother. Sweet baby Cora is beautiful and loves her brother oh so much… they are a perfect pair.
I had such a fun morning meeting this sweet girl, her big brother, and mama. The camera just loves her beautiful baby face, and I loved watching how much her brothers loves her! We already have plans in the works for her birthday session, so we’ll get to see them again in just a few short months.
This girl… so sweet and fun and silly and beautiful! Her big sisters were all so excited to celebrate Adaline’s first birthday, and she did not disappoint. So many adorable baby smiles, and she sure loved here cake, too! Happy Birthday, baby girl.
