Violet's Floral Milestone Session at Homestead Park | Columbus Baby Photographer

Violet's Floral Milestone Session at Homestead Park

Columbus Baby Photographer

When I first spoke with Violet's mom, Abbie, she mentioned wanting a natural setting for photos of her sweet one year old daughter. I had the perfect place for her! Homestead Park in Hilliard, Ohio is great because the photo opportunities are endless. I do have my favorite spots like their rows of trees and big wildflower fields. With little ones I find it's best to keep these sessions around 45 minutes long so we don't wear them out or upset them. Violet loved crawling and walking away from me when I wanted her to sit in a chair. Little silly girl! 

She absolutely loved sitting among the wildflowers and picking petals from the little flowers. I'd tickle her little bare feet or play music from her favorite musical book. Rick, my husband, was a huge help during this session. He carried all my props and helped my pregnant self up from the ground over and over. He also has a tendancy to get the attention of babies and make them smile. Added bonus! 

Enjoy some of my favorites from Violet's session last week! 

I shared a back of the camera shot on my Instagram of this photo below. I love this wide angle shot to really take in the whole scene. You can follow my Instagram HERE! 

she looks like a real, live doll baby in this dress. 

Photographing baby feet is my thang. Can't get enough!

Picking petals cracks Violet up! 

How picture-perfect is she among these rows of trees?

Documenting those little lashes so Mom can remember them forever. 

Babies on the move crack me up!

Dexter's First Birthday Session at Gantz Park | Columbus Baby Photographer

Dexter's First Birthday Session at Gantz Park

Columbus Baby Photographer

My journey of photographing Dexter began in his mommy's tummy at this same park. I feel like I've been there every step of the way documenting his little life. I thought I'd share a little collage to show just how much he's changed but also how some of him looks exactly the same! We started out with a maternity session at Gantz Park in Grove City, a newborn session in my studio, three month photos at Gantz Park, six and nine month photos in studio and a first birthday session at Gantz Park again! It was so neat going back there each time with him!

Let's get to his first year session photos! Isn't he such a doll with those sweet cheeks and blue eyes? 

He absolutely loves smiling for his mama.

So grown up!

Of course the "wave to mama" photo had to make the cut. Adorable!

I mean is he one or ten here, I can't even tell. He looks so big! 

Walking down into this creek at 31 weeks pregnant was slightly scary only because I'm already clumsy to begin with. I survived and Dexter got to splash in some water! 

That one on the right. Staring up at his mama. I melt. 

Favorite!

Dexter is not a fan of eating cake with his bare hands...

And getting it on his shorts. I feel you buddy. But look at those icing-covered toes. :)
