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.

As always…can you guess the quote?

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!!

This gal is such a stunner! Beautiful, albeit tiny, belly…gorgeous smile…and she gave me one of my new favorite maternity photographs. I absolutely love to capture pregnancies…such a wonderful and fleeting time!

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!

These two sisters were just gorgeous little ones! Beautiful curls and smiles. I always enjoy photographing children at all stages…

Gorgeous siblings…and so fun to photograph. I don’t get to work with their age groups very often…it was a nice change of pace! Thanks again for bringing your family into the studio…
