Preparing

I love the excitement and anticipation that a little one brings, especially when it’s the first bay to join a family.  This little boy is no exception.  His mommy and daddy are busy preparing the nursery (which sounds like it will be awesome), picking out outfits, buying all the essentials all in preparing to hold this sweet boy for the first time.  It’s a pleasure to get to document his journey starting with growing in his mama.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Summer Fashion

I had the opportunity once again to work with Laura Duncan of Wee Fashion.  She has an adorable Summer Line she is putting on her Etsy page.  She allowed me to work with some gorgeous little ones as well.  I highly recommend getting your cutie an outfit ordered to wear this summer, you won’t be disappointed!

A Busy but Blessed Life

I photographed Jenny’s wedding almost 4 years ago.  It’s amazing how quickly ones life is filled with marriage and children.  Jenny moved to Arkansas but I have kept in touch with her via her mom.  It was great that we could work out a session when she was back in town for a visit.  She has two sweet little ones that are close in age, they keep her very busy but just as richly blessed!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

An Adventure at Union Station

I had a great session full of adventure with Lilly and Layla.  We went to the Union Station which was full of awesome photography opportunities.  We had several clothing changes that added to the fun of different styles and different looks.  Their mom gave me permission to do whatever I wanted to do which allowed me to push myself creatively and do things I might not otherwise do.  The girls were great sports and we were able to capture some timeless photographs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our New Addition

I have taken a few months off but for good reason.  We welcomed our son Nehemiah Colin on November 17, 2010.  He is a sweet little boy.  Alea has adjusted to being a big sister beautifully! I thought you might like to get a peak at him.  I am looking forward to getting back working with clients and photographing the moments in your life.  Hope you enjoy my little man’s newborn photos.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Serious Little Man

Evan arrived just over a week ago. http://heathernelsonphotography.wordpress.com/2010/10/20/anxiously-awaiting/ Everyone was more then excited about the arrival of a little boy! He is a serious little guy.  While he was a wake he sported raised eyebrows and often gave me a frown.  His two sisters adore him and are so good with him.  I loved watching Evan do everything in his power to find his daddy whenever he spoke.  This little man is much loved and adorable!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wee Fashion

Wee Fashion is the brillant and talented creation of Laura Duncan.  She has some amazing products that I had the opportunity to photograph.  She makes everything from clothes, to bows and hats, just to name a few.  She has a large array of items she sells.  It’s worth taking the time to check out her Etsy page and facebook page. I am sure you’ll find something you can’t live without for your adorable kiddo.

A Complete Family

This family was a complete circle.  It was sweet to watch how much Shawna loves her baby sister Elsa.  Caleb never let big brother Coleman get very far from his sight.  The admiration in Coleman’s eyes for his daddy was more then evident.  Mom kept it all working, following and coordinated.  I am not naive enough to believe it’s always this smooth but for our beautiful fall session you could see how they are a complete family that loves each other and makes it work.  It was a joy to photograph them.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Delight

Miss Eliza B has grown since our last session.  http://heathernelsonphotography.wordpress.com/2009/11/06/miss-eliza-b/ She has turned one!  She still has those delicious cheeks and is full of personality.   She was very uncertain of walking for me, it took to the very end of the session and some solid ground to see her take off.  She was a delight to photograph.

Much anticipation

Layla was a baby born with much mystery until she arrived.  Her parents knew the details of her gender and her name but choose not to share those details.  All of their friends and family were very anxious to hear all about the specifics.  Even big sister Lilly was in the dark.  She turned out to be a healthy, beautiful little girl that adds so much to this awesome family of four.
