Jen + David / Natural Glow

mariagrace — Wed, 16 May 2012 17:17:43 +0000

When Dave contacted me to take photos of his Jen during her pregnancy, I asked him what kind of images did he want to see of her. His reply was, “Just show how beautiful she is.” Done, and I had absolutely nothing to do with it. The love of a good guy and the anticipation of their first born gave her the perfect glow.

DAVE: Oh, my gosh! I can’t wait for your baby to arrive. Congrats to you two. I know the kiddo will have a great mom and dad in you both. You were a true friend to my brother and I know he’ll be an angel for Baby P.

Rizzi, Roman + Lila / Tutu Bella

mariagrace — Thu, 26 Apr 2012 21:37:24 +0000

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: every little girl needs a tutu. If for no other reason than to rock it out at a photo session the way Lila did here. But what else should you expect from a girl whose Mom is named Rizzi. Get out of town. That name is awesome.

How can this one not make you smile?Okay. I’m kinda jealous of her bookshelf. Rad.
Love this. ♥ this family moment.

Rizzi of the Awesome Name: Yay!! Thanks for putting Lila in a tutu. Loved it and loved your whole session. I know I got a lot of great photos and am happy to share just a few of them in this post. You guys were fierce and just amazing.

Sienna / Button Nose

mariagrace — Thu, 19 Apr 2012 01:00:40 +0000

This is Sienna. Her nose is awesome. So are her parents. She was perfectly sweet during this newborn session and I’m so happy I had this time to spend with her.

Sheryll: I’m so happy you’re a mommy now! You were born to do this, girl, and I know Sienna will blossom with you and Mike. Blessings and love to you all. I can’t wait to see how sassy Sienna will grow up to be…just like her mama.

That Nose

mariagrace — Sun, 15 Apr 2012 16:00:37 +0000

Had a newborn session yesterday and wanted to share this sweet, sweet photo. I don’t know what I love more: her roundish face, her tongue almost sticking out, or her button nose. I think the nose has it.

Meet a little girl with delightful curls who is every bit sweet as honey. Sharing a Springtime Session of Liezl and her family. I knew before the session started that these photos would be absolutely fantastic. Mia’s perfect curls guaranteed that.

So, so precious.

A quiet moment captured.

Le sigh. My favorite.

Liezl: I hope you love these photos because I’m in love with them lots! The collection of Mia’s solo photos are so, so sweet and simply heart melting. I hope you guys enjoy these photos everyday!
