The Hargroves Family

The Hargroves recently welcomed their second child, Teagen, and wanted photos to commemorate. The props you see in the following photos all belong to them. I want to remind to past and future clients to contribute ideas, props, and anything that is special and particular to them on a photoshoot.

Teagen kept sleeping after we placed him on top of the pillows. I joked how he'll be adjusting to this as his new bed instead of a crib:

Trey and Tiffany suggested cradling him with the blanket, so they held them up carefully and I made this photo:

You may recognize the stool from the sneak peek blog; it served as yet another spot for the newborn to sleep:

When Teagen woke up, he looked pretty comfortable  He was placed in a woven basket with a couple of antlers they brought along:

Here, Tiffany displayed the love and affection between a mother and her child:

 

I wanted to end the post with the family together; Tristan moved in to kiss his new baby brother:

 It was a pleasure getting to meet and work with The Hargroves. I look forward to future sessions!

Sneak Peek

I just wanted to show a couple of teaser images from two family sessions I photographed this weekend. Look for more images within the week or two!

Baby Will

I present to you, Will. Dainty, comfortable, and sleepy as newborns come, he was no exception. I photographed in his parents', Julie and James, open and simplistic home - where the environment helped me execute simpler images, and got to meet their five animal friends.

Will relaxed himself and started to smirk while in this position:

When I first saw him, the first attribute I noticed was the amount of hair, a trait I can relate to:

The dining area was one of my favorite places in the home, and I knew I had to get a photo of it and Will together:

Dinah, the charming sheltie, was very photogenic with the new addition in the household:

We moved into Will's nursery, where he displayed comfort of being wrapped up, but moreso when next to mom and dad:

Though he couldn't wear adult-sized boots, it doesn't mean he could be supported by them!:

We can't forget his own pair he'll grow into:

A closer family round-up made this photograph. I wanted Will to be the focus here, while giving slight hints of the parents' expressions:

The photoshoot ended with bedtime, but not without some company!:

I want to thank Julie and James for inviting me out to their home to photograph their lovely first child, and I look forward to many more celebrations.
