Oh goodness, I cannot say enough about this little guy! For all the work we had to do to get him to cooperate at his newborn session, he made up for in spades at this session! Mom wanted his photos to be outdoors to make his baby blue eyes pop, and OH MY! How is she EVER going to say to “no” to this face??

I am loving watching this sweet boy grow and be a part of my First Year Plan…. can’t wait to see him for his One Year session!

I have to show this one in black and white, also…

Sweet little hand…

Those eyelashes! Stop it!

We are really, really enjoying this Spring weather (minus the rain) and taking advantage of weeding our garden in temperatures under 102! Lorelai does not enjoy sitting still much for pictures these days, but I managed to get her to hold still in the interest of photographing her little froggy friend.

Birdie requires some containment right now since we have a small pond in our backyard, but she didn’t mind playing in our vintage crib I keep around for baby/toddler sessions. Such sweet girls. My heart is full!

I never want to forget these baby curls…

Happy Spring!

Well folks, I did it! I put Charlotte in her high chair, poured an obscene amount of honey nut cheerios in front of her, and rolled her right in front of our kitchen window, hoping she would be still enough to get an eye photo of her, too. I love this girl’s eyes…I realize that her eyes aren’t bright blue (and they would probably more likely qualify as gray…) but I never thought I’d have anything other than brown eyed children (which, I don’t mind…Lorelai has GORGEOUS eyes!). It’s just fun to have something different, too. (also, I’m pretty sure I see some brown creeping into the gray, am I right?)

Poor little Birdie hasn’t felt well this week. She’s been running a temp around 103-104 this whole week, and I think that may be why she sat so still for these pictures. Hopefully now that Spring is upon us, there will be less cold viruses going around!

Don’t know WHERE she gets her sass from.

My oh-so-lovely new business cards came in the mail the other day. Opening them up was probably a little too exciting for me…think *Christmas morning* exciting. Yep. Too exciting.

But with a baby as ADORABLE as this representing my business, how could I not be? (Yes, D’Andra, I realize I need to blog his session!)

My business cards are printed on “pearl paper” to make them glisten just the tiniest bit (it appears a little grainy in the photo. I like it.).

If you think you might want to pass some on to your friends and family, I would encourage you to do so! I can even deliver them to you.

My new referral policy* is the following: for every 2 people you refer, you get a FREE session!

(the referred friends must make sure they tell me that you referred them, and actually book and complete a session before your free session is valid.)

This shouldn’t be too hard to do…I am not a salesperson, but if I find something I LOVE or believe in, I most likely will not shut up about it!

And as a side note- I LOVE feedback! Email me at KatieLittlesEmail@gmail.com to let me know what you have loved- or wished would be different- about your experience with me!

And, (yes, I realize this post is SO random and dragging on. Stay with me, people!) don’t forget about my Newborn Session Special I am running…

From now until March 15th, any newborn sessions scheduled for this year will receive a FREE 30 minute mini-session!

**non-refundable session fee must be paid when booking session, free session must be used within 6 months of the newborn session**

If you were planning on booking a session this year for anyone other than a newborn, you will receive a spiral bound 4×6 book of proofs from your session!

(*subject to change at any time. We’ll give this a go and see if it’s popular.)

***UPDATE***

I have decided to open up Saturday, February 4th for Valentine’s Day Mini-Sessions, just for those mom’s who like to plan ahead! Call me at 832-647-1323 to schedule a session or e-mail me at KatieLittlesEmail@gmail.com!

(I just want to take a quick second to note- Momma’s of boys, there will be options for your little mister! This is not just for little girls!)

This idea came to me JUST this week, and I am deciding to run with it! I debated on how to price these sessions, because while I want them to be a GREAT deal, I also don’t want to de-value the work and talent that is going into planning these mini-sessions…but… great deal, it is! These sessions are great for your baby that can push up or sit up, your only child, or all of your kids! The studio is not set up for adults or large families, so message me if you have a large family (4+ kiddos) and we’ll see what we can do!

I am going to have a special set-up for this day complete with TWO new backdrops, and some accessories to make each session different from the other. Bring your own props, bows, tutus, whatever you want to personalize your time! Thirty minutes will be MORE than enough, and each online gallery will have 10-15 photos to choose from.

This is a little break from what I usually do, so I hope everyone joins me in this! It’s success will determine future mini-session availability!

Here are your three packages to choose from (going with a Disney theme with the package names…:)

This was TRULY the most fun I have ever had at a wedding- and please. Can I get an AMEN that some people have a little more than their fair share of the “beautiful, talented” gene?! Stephanie and Samuel (well, maybe a little more Stephanie…) along with some VERY talented friends HANDMADE almost every decoration for the wedding and reception, and it turned out PERFECT. Thanks for letting me document this amazing night!

Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Allen!!
