Vail Baby and Family Photographer - Baby Gianna and Family

I got to do a fun session last week with the Flynn Family in Edwards.  I've had the pleasure of shooting photos for this family on several occasions and as the family expands, we just keep having more fun.  Gianna was 4 weeks old at the time of the shoot and she was such a perfect wee thing.  Big brother Declan was a total ham and had me laughing for most of the morning.  I've included a couple of shots in here that would normally be considered outtakes, but I think they also show the essence of their family.

Mom and Gianna had left the room, so this was a candid shot of Declan getting in some quality time with Dad.

This one would also be considered an outtake, but it makes me laugh.  It was supposed to be a shot of Gianna and Vicki, but Declan wanted to be part of it.  Gianna looks happy that he decided to join them.

Baby Josiah in Edwards, Colorado

It's been a little while since I've had the chance to shoot a newborn, so it was a lot of fun to shoot Baby Josiah the other day.  He was only 10 days old at the time of the photo session, but you'd never know he was so new.  He was so alert and interested in everything that was going on.  Unfortunately this meant we weren't able to get any of the lovely sleepy shots that we were hoping for, but it didn't matter because he has such lovely eyes!

Here are a few from our session that I really like.

Studio Portraits with Ben in Eagle Vail. Through the Lens Series, Entry 21.

The last time I took studio photos of Benjamin, he was only a few weeks old and I was 36 weeks pregnant.  He was such a fantastic model at such a young age that I knew we would get some great shots of him at a recent studio session.

He certainly didn't disappoint us and we had such a fun time with all kinds of props including cameras, blocks and chairs.  It was a great help having his Grandparents behind me stomping and waving at him and making him smile.  Having his Mom and Dad there with some funny props  was a tremendous help also.

Maxwell has just moved up to his 3rd classroom at daycare and after his first day in the new room, the teachers commented that Ben looked after Maxwell all day long.  So I am eternally grateful to this gorgeous wee man for looking after my little guy.

Here are a few of the photos from our fun morning.

This shot makes me think of the Little Rascals for some reason.

Ben was really interested in what was going on behind my camera.  The only problem was that I couldn't take any photos of him if he was on the same side of the lens as me, so we got him his own.  I see a shutter bug in the making!

Ben was so tired after modeling all morning, but we managed to get one last shot outside with his grandparents.
