Down Time ::: Personal

There was some downtime at home, and my roommate's son was being particularly cute, so I busted out the camera. John (the baby), decided his mother's knees were quality slobbering material, which you will see below. Between slobber-soaked knees and toothless smiles, everyone had a good. It was almost a given. Seriously, how can you resist this face?

This is one of my favorites from the afternoon. It's just oh-so-peaceful.

Storey June ::: Baby Portraits

About a year and a half ago, before this blog even existed, I took this little beauty's sister's photos. Last month, I got the honor of photographing little Storey June at the ripe age of 2 weeks. It was such a precious time, and she was a (mostly) compliant model.

Now, remember I said mostly. We started off with tears.

Eventually, though, the adequate amount mommy powers were used to soothe her.

Originally, the basket was an epic, tear-filled fail. After a couple attempts, though, she conveyed rest.

Siders ::: Family

Some good friends of mine recently had a kid. Those friends just happen to be the ones that I'm blogging about and recently photographed. Funny how that works.

They have presented to the world extraordinarily tiny and cute John David Siders. He's probably one of the coolest kids I know. Ok, no doubt, he is one of the coolest kids I know. It's rare that I see someone rock a dino on his onesie like little John David does. See for yourself, as the proof is in the pudding (or shall I say "portraits").

 Tiny.

 Sarah and I took some more intimate home shots later.

 I'm not sure, but I'm guessing that if this guy's face were plastered on billboards all over the world, all wars and fighting would cease. Seriously, how could someone hold a grudge after they've melted from seeing such cuteness? Not possible.

Lindsay + Jarred ::: Wedding

Lindsay's brothers each gave her a framed photo of the two of them when they were little.
The photos were accompanied by handwritten letters.

 Flower girl love.

 These two are just so gorgeous.

 Post-ceremony Mom-hugs. They're the best.

 IImpromptu father-daughter dance.
