This little one is so beautiful! All babies are cute and sweet, but just look at her! Isn’t she gorgeous? And passionate! This little one gave me a run for my money. She wasn’t too sure she agreed with me on how things should go during her photo shoot. As you can see by this first shot, she wasn’t shy about giving her opinion.

She thought that dad’s hands were too cold for this shot, so we wrapped her up in a little swaddle and she was much happier.

And because things have been so crazy around here lately I wasn’t able to share from Gladys’s gorgeous maternity session. So enjoy!

Check out the Facebook page to see more of this beautiful girl and her family!

Thank you so much Lemuel and Gladys! It has been a pleasure working with you and your little princess!

It was such fun to photograph this family for their second maternity and again when they welcomed their sweet little newborn princess! Big brother is ALL boy and busy, busy, busy!! But oh so sweet when it comes to his little sister.

Be sure to check out Barefoot’s Facebook page to see more of sweet Kaia.

Thank you Rick and Jessica for the absolute JOY of working with you and your sweet family!

These are so pretty and pure. Love the tenderness!

This little one was one of those babies that I wish could give lessons. From beginning to end he made my job so easy! Slept like a charm and didn’t fuss when I moved him around….I was completely spoiled. Thank you so much for trusting me to capture this sweet new moments for you!

Be sure to check out Barefoot Photography’s Facebook page for more images of this little one!!

And…if you schedule your newborn photography session with Barefoot Photography, you will receive a complimentary mini maternity session to capture your bump. Contact Kimberly today!

I have the best job! I love photographing newborns. They are each so unique…and I love seeing their little personalities shine through, even at just a week old.

One of my favorite part of photographing newborns is the chance to watch them grow. Here is Zane with his super cute big brother and sister when he was just two weeks old.

And now look at him! He was the sweetest little chunk, just handing out the grins. And he was quite the dancer.

Oh poor neglected blog…how lonely your life must be. So let’s start this off with a bang….one beautiful mama! This was my first maternity shoot in my new “old” studio. For those of you didn’t catch the previous post I am back where I belong at Towne Storage…my wonderful quirky old building. I couldn’t be happier!

So it’s been nearly two months! My goodness, how time flies. Things have changed since my last post, and while I have intended to keep you all updated, I have just been so busy!

I am so excited, so overjoyed, to announce that I am back home. About a year ago, I made the decision to leave my beautiful studio at the Towne Storage Building…a decision that I regretted almost from the start. After 10 months of wishing and hoping, I have returned to Loft 401. For those of you who have been there, I’m sure you remember it well. It is a beautiful, artistic and fabulous quirky building that fits me and my style perfectly. For those of you who have never been there…just you wait…it’s gorgeous! Here are some photos of it from a few years ago.

One more update…from what I understand…Facebook is continuing to make changes. For those of you who are fans and like to get Barefoot updates, please go to my Facebook page here and like a recent post. This will help to ensure you continue to see Barefoot posts on your newsfeed. Thanks!!

Meet one of the sweetest babies ever. Baby Abagail came into my studio with her adoring parents and I had the honor of photographing her. What a beautiful baby girl!

Thank you so much Joe and Kadie for trusting these precious memories to me!
