Baby Anderson

Becky and I taught third grade together at S. Ray Lowder a long time ago. We've kept in touch through the years even though we've both moved on in our careers. Becky had the cutest two blonde-headed kids, Colin and Caroline...and everyone was delighted to find out that she and Dave were expecting #3. All these "C" names were swirling in everyone's heads, wondering just what this sweet baby would be named. And out came Anderson :)  Becky told me this summer that when baby arrived, she wanted me to take his newborn pictures. So I made sure my Saturday mornings were clear in September for whenever little man made his arrival. Everything worked out perfectly!

That morning, sweet Anderson fought sleep like you wouldn't believe. I have to give major props to Colin and Caroline for being ever so patient while we coaxed Anderson to sleep and captured these fabulous pictures. Here are my favorites from the session:

They were so gentle with Anderson!

Caroline loved "squishing" her brother.

Mom didn't even look like she just had a baby.

So grateful to have been given the opportunity to create these images for this sweet family.

Sweet Nataleigh

Oh the moment when a baby can sit up but can't go anywhere! This is my favorite age to photograph. No chasing them around, but they can look at you and at their parents, and they make the cutest faces. Poor girl got eaten up by ants toward the end of the session but was such a trooper. She made a frowny face and let out a slight whimper, and was over it. Bless her! This is Nataleigh at Cline Farm in Lincolnton. Here's the entire session:

I am loving watching Nataleigh grow up. She is just too cute! Thanks, Cyndi, for letting me capture these moments of your precious Grand-Baby!
