I’M AN UNCLE!!!

Meet Miss Campbell Rose Swann :)

Born and Adopted on April 1st, 2010
6 lbs 1 oz
19 1/2 inches long

Rachael, Audrey, Scarlett & I are sooooo unbelievably excited for Ben & Megan on the new addition to their family.  Watching their experience to become parents has been an absolute miracle and we couldn’t be happier to have little Campbell with us all now.  It’s a complete joy to watch their happiness as a family.  They’ve adapted to becoming parents with ease.  I’m proud of you both.  Love you little sis & brother from another mother.

As you can tell by looking around…I don’t photograph many babies, except my own ;).  My girls actually renewed my love for photography.  I wish I knew then what I know now when they were this little…here’s the first session of many of my new niece Campbell.

my girls :)

It’s been quite a while since Audrey & Scarlett have seen the blog…I thought I’d share a little impromptu session that I did with them a little while back.  Rachael dropped them off at my studio for a while and of course I couldn’t get ANYTHING done with them there.  So…we took some pictures :)  They’ve gone through stages of how they act in front of the camera.  Most of the time they just ignore me…but that day, they were just hilarious.

then we decided to go inside for a few…
They got a little dance fever :)
annnnd finally…this one ended up being our Christmas card…love it.

Kayleen T. - Hey Creative Push, just got the email for the Lyon Shop in Vegas and sadly won’t make it to the dinner the night before so I just wanted to reach out to everyone and say HI and introduce myself! :) It will be my first year to WPPI! These girls are so cute and the picture of them in the cement pipe has to be the best kid picture I’ve ever seen! :) hopefully we can talk more at the Lyonshop! YAY! -Kayleen

Brittany Lee - They are sooooo pretty. Love these pics. The one with Scarlett squatting down looking at Audrey reminds me of Racheal.

Aunt Mae Mae - Little boogers;) I love them so much I can’t stand it! I am definitely the luckiest AUNT in the world!

Mary Natalie Hester - They are so beautiful!!!!

Retta Williams - I love these pics!!!!! I’m speechless. Where did you take them????
