No post is complete without images so here is one of my sweetest little clients!
This little guy was so adorable! Seriously, look at this head full of jet black hair, eyelashes that go on forever, squishy little lips. Now, he was a fiesty fella and definately made me work for it, but we got a gallery full of images like this….
Baby “A” is one of my Babies by Shannon baby plan members so you’ll be seeing a lot of him this year Congrats to mom and dad on their BEAUTIFUL new bundle. I’m looking forward to watching him grow!
One of my favorite things about being a photographer is watching “my” babies grow. I really don’t know where the time goes. I photographed this little one when she was brand new and just had her one year session at the studio the other day. I have photographed big brother several times and it was so nice to see them again. Baby “E” was a little unsure of me at first but soon warmed up. Big brother was so good and we got some great stuff of him too!
Baby “E” brand new…
and now…
The “G” family welcomed this beautiful, and I mean beautiful baby girl! She was so perfect with her round little cheeks! Congratulations to both of you, I really enjoyed spending the morning with you!
Their adventure has begun and I’ll be posting images of the new addition in a day or two. Stay tuned…
I photographed little “K” a few months ago and one of my favorite shots (and moms too) was this one…
So while I was proofing this session and came across this one I thought, WoW! There is something about this little beauty when she looks down and to the side that captivates me. Just an innocence about it that I love…
Now, I have many, many favorites from this session. Way too many to post. I could have photographed her all day! I’m looking forward to our summer session with her brothers. The morning of the session mom e-mailed concerned about the amount of natural light and that the grass was going to be wet. Well, I convinced her that the light would be fine and we just needed some props to get her off the ground. I brought a chair and asked if she had an old wagon. Luckily grandma had saved the wagon from when “K”’s mom was little and we got to use it. She also had the old wooden rocking chair that worked out perfectly.
Here are just a few of the gallery full of beautiful images…
Look at those lashes!
Sooo big!
Happy 1st birthday “K”!
A tribute to all the mother’s out there. Happy Mother’s Day from Shannon Walton Photography!
choosing images to post from this family session!! This isn’t even a sneak peek I had such a hard time!
Mom e-mailed after the session to say it was the most fun they have ever had getting their photos taken!! Made my day AND made for some amazing captures! Thank you “J” family it was a pleasure working with you!
I love baseball season! I’m always sad when it ends. We are very busy with 2 boys playing but I love every minute of it! I love capturing the action, just love it! Freezing the motion and even better the ball in mid air (and sometimes the player) is one of my favorite things to shoot. My boys are way over me photographing them for regular portraits but love it when I shoot them playing. They’ll even yell over at me during the game when they’ve made a play or hit the ball and say, “Did you get that mom?”. Here are a few of Kyle and I’ll post some of Ryan in a bit.
I love the pure determination on his face!
and the sheer joy when he tags home (well hopefully he actually got his foot down)
Playing 3rd base…he was ready for this grounder but it took a bad hop as you can see. Way to use your body Kyle!
Oh, he was good to me. He slept the entire session! Here are a few of my faves..
