Being an Auntie Rocks! {Lino Lakes MN Newborn Photographer}

Before January, I was an auntie to only one sweet little guy, but I have been blessed to welcome two new nephews in just a matter of months and I must say, being an auntie is a pretty special calling. You get to love on some sweet little babes and then you can send them home when they get fussy :) I've been a mom to 3 little babies, I can say that! 

So my newest nephew is a super sweet little guy who is adored more than anything by his super amazing mama. She just happens to be my sister in law too and I couldn't be more happy for her. She plays her role as mama so darn well and I'm proud to be the auntie to sweet Bretton. 

Meet adorable Bretton.  

Like I've said before, I LOVE BABY FEET!

Isn't this perfect?

She's cherishing these moments when he's still so small.

Love baby butts.

Look how sweet he is!

Until he got mad!  I just love this shot.

Mama and her punkin.

SUCH A SPECIAL MOMENT.

Bretton buddy, welcome to the world!

The fading of the sun... {Lino Lakes Child Photographer}

Last night I mustered up a whole bunch of patience to take my own kiddos pictures.   Every so often I get the itch to capture a few beautiful shots of them to hang on our walls.  Not only did I fight a little bit with them, I also had to fight with the setting sun.  These days the sun is setting earlier and faster it seems, but I managed to capture those hazy summer days pictures I so long for in the dark winter months.  

I love this shot, my two beautiful girls with their stud of a brother.  His face cracks me up here.

This was their idea.

Nuts...

We recreated a shot from 2 summers ago.

My adorable and funny little guy.

What a goof.

Beautiful BB. 

She says she was praying, but man does that face say otherwise :)

Appeasing me.

This is the free spirit I know and love!

My sweet and quiet Annika.  I love this shot, just can't decide which processing I prefer more :)

I love her smile, big 2nd grade teeth and all :)

So beautiful.

So now I need to decide what to print!

Sweet Angel Baby Boy {Lino lakes, MN Newborn Photographer}

Meet sweet 7 day old Ronan!  Ronan was a perfect angel for the whole session.  He slept for almost the entire time, a photographer's dream! 

A little world traveler already!

An adorable baby burrito!

Perfection!

Sweet baby tootsers.

Ronan with sweet big sis Vivian.

And the sweet and loving family of 4!  Such a fun and happy family!

Vivian was more interested being behind the camera than getting her pictures taken.  Future photog maybe?
