I have been a bad, bad blogger! I am going to play catch up tonight. (Hey Brandy, it’s Wednesday and I’m blogging!) :)

I met up with little Drake a few weeks ago for some portraits. You may remember him from his newborn session here. My how he has grown!

Little Khloe is the first baby I’ve photographed with such bright red hair. She is the daughter of good friends of ours, and the youngest of 3 girls! They sure have their hands full in that house. She turned one last month and I was able to get some great photos of her to remember her on her first birthday.

Jenn: I'm a sucker for a redhead and that one is just too cute! That last picture is awesome!

Meet Audrey. She is the daughter of some friends of ours that we have not seen in way too long. I couldn’t believe I just met her for the first time this month when I took her 1 year photos. She is just an adorable mix of Chrissie and Joel, and has the cutest personality. She totally hammed it up for my camera!

My niece, Kennedy, turned 1 in July. I swear it felt like I was just taking her newborn portraits 3 or 4 months ago. I have loved watching her grow this year and can’t wait to see what her second year of life brings :)

<3 you baby girl!

I simply could not believe how grown up Samantha  was on Saturday. The last time I saw her, she was just one week old! I had the honor of photographing her baptism on Saturday afternoon at Our Lady of Guadalupe, a gorgeous church.

Sara and Memo, enjoy your sneak peek and congrats!

Sara Gomez-Barron: Valerie I love them! Thank you, thank you , thank you! Having you there helped me truly enjoy the ceremony.

Oh how I love watching my babies grow. Mia is one of my baby planners who I will see every three months until she is one. We met a couple weeks ago for her 3 month photo session and I couldn’t believe how much she has grown already! 

Here are a few of my favorites from the day!

I met up with Noah, mommy and daddy today for his one year portraits. This little guy is one the move! He kept me on my toes the entire session. ; )

I remember him as a newborn and can’t believe he is already a year old!

Enjoy your sneak peek!

Kristy Lynn: he's adorable. Great job Val!!

Beira: He's a cutie! I love that last one.

Meet James. He is one year old and full of life. This little boy is well ahead of the curve, he was walking at 9 months!

James also has a very rare disease, called infantile myofibromatosis. He is now receiving chemotherapy treatments once every other week. (and making wonderful progress).

His parents found me through The Littlest Heroes Project, and we met yesteray for his one year pictures. James had me running around the park trying to keep up with him! He was far more into the ducks at the park than me and my boring camera ; )

Christina, it was so nice to meet you two! I hope you and your husband enjoy the sneak peek!

francine: He is so adorable! Very nice work Val.

Christina: It was wonderful meeting you. Our session was quite an adventure. Those geese must have known not to mess with us,. The pictures are amazing and I can not wait to see the rest. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Natasha: Wow, these pictures look great! Awesome job the photographer did and James looks like such a lil man! Christina, I LOVE the picture of the two of you on the bottom! You have to get that one blown up and put in your living room. All these pics here are great though!!!

My niece, Kennedy, came over the other day for her 6 month photo session. I cannot believe she is already half a year! This little peanut was all mostly smiles for me. She was so proud to show off her new skill of sitting up!

Here’s a few (er, or a bunch more) of my favorites!

oneshotbeyond: she is way too cute!!!

I simply cannot believe Mary is already halfway to one! I really love photographing babies this age because they have so much personality. Mary was no exception, she is such a happy baby and had me smiling during the entire session! Here’s some of my favorites from the day, it was VERY hard to narrow it down to just a few to show on the blog!
