Mia

It's shoots like these that make me pray I have a little girl one day - Mia was such a smiley happy little girl, and that dress - come on!  Cutest. Ever.

I'm going to start and end the post with two of my favorites from the day - can you even get over this tooth-less smile???  Cause I can't!

Lovin' life, just hanging out in a big ball of pink ruffles.

That dress!  Loved it.

As soon as Christine (mom) would pick her up, she was all smiles:)

Mia was NOT a fan of the flower headband, but we managed to keep it on long enough for a few pictures:

I think it should be a rule that EVERY little girl needs to have a cherry dress.  Every single one.  So cute!

I always put my lens hoods on when I'm shooting little babies - they love to grab it when I'm shooting!

Aaaand my 2nd favorite, just hanging out with dad - how pretty does she look?  Those eyes!  She's gonna be a heartbreaker:)

Thanks guys!  Had a blast hanging out for the morning:)

Braydon: One Year Old

Yesterday morning I got to hang out with this little guy:

Note to self, if I have a little boy one day, I have to dress him up in a button down shirt and sweater vest.  It's a must.  So adorable!

Braydon turned one year old a few days ago, so we decided it would be a good idea to give him a piece of his birthday cake - let me tell you, I've never seen a baby so intense with a piece of cake.  It was HILARIOUS watching him eat it, and I couldn't stop laughing while I was editing these pictures:)

It started out pretty normal:

Getting a little more intense.....those eyes are saying "hey lady with the camera, don't get in my way....I've got important business to take care of":

Braydon doesn't need an oxygen mask, just a piece of cake to breath into:)

He didn't take his hands away from his face until every last bit was gone:

I agree buddy, I'd be smiling this big if I inhaled that piece of cake too:)


Thanks Lisa and Kris!  It was a great morning hanging out, can't wait to do it again!

Kylene - April 2, 2010 - 2:38 pm

too freaking cute… the cake eating pictures are hilarious!

Amanda - April 1, 2010 - 10:45 am

I was loving the first one until the cake “oxygen mask” photos made me laugh out loud. These are all so great!

Joan - March 31, 2010 - 8:38 pm

He’s a doll! You did a great job capturing his first piece of birthday cake Tina! How fun that must have been!

Bernadette U - March 30, 2010 - 12:04 pm

Oh, I was SO looking forward to seeing these pics; what a cutie! Great work!

Sarah - March 30, 2010 - 9:31 am

TOO. CUTE. All of them are so good! (and I’m happy he has the same love for eating birthday cake as me) :)

Mary - March 30, 2010 - 9:27 am

I love all his little rolls and his huge brown eyes! Don’t come between him and his cake either :)

Jaime - March 30, 2010 - 9:00 am

Lee: 6 Months

Cutest. Face. Ever.

Isn't he the cutest little guy?  This is Lee.  I documented his newborn session back in July, so of course I had to visit the Coombs again for his 6 month milestone:)  I think Lee is the smiley-est (that's a word, right?) baby ever - it was non-stop smiles ever since he woke up from his nap:)

How cute are these boots? John Deere cowboy boots?  Love it!

We tried getting some nice shots of Lee in his farm t-shirt and cowboy boots, but he was too busy for me and had other important business to attend to:

Don't you just want to pick him up and squeeze him??

His faces are too much - I wonder what he is thinking here....(probably thinking "when is this weird lady going to get this thing out of my face?")

So smiley!

Lee, just hanging out with mom:)

Playing a little airplane with mom and dad:)

Thanks guys!  Can't wait to be there for his one year mark:)

Lee is the cutest little guy ever! I never saw such blue eyes! He looks so happy and content. I love his little John Deere boots and his Penn State cap! My favorites were pictures #1 (how could anyone resist that one?) & #3. What a cute smile! Great job again Tina! I wish I had a photographer friend when you girls were little!

Dawn - January 6, 2010 - 9:40 pm

OMG!!! These are too cute for words. They make me want to go over there right now and scoop him up and snuggle him! Fabulous pictures, that last one is PERFECTION!

Kylene - January 6, 2010 - 8:57 pm

I seriously can not take the cuteness!! These are awesome Tina :) Mary you are truly blessed with your little man!

Jess - January 6, 2010 - 3:44 pm

OMG those eyes!!! He is absolutely adorable!

Sam - January 6, 2010 - 3:25 pm

i love how you captured all his little faces; what beautiful eyes!

Roanna - January 6, 2010 - 11:04 am

Amazing pictures Tina, I absolutely LOVE the first shot of Lee and the series with the John Deere boots! Great job!

Sarah - January 6, 2010 - 10:51 am

LOVE ALL OF THEM! His eyes are ridiculously amazing in these photos. Tina, you’re awesome. And now my mom wants to kidnap Lee for herself even more! It’s OK Mary, I won’t let her!

Jaime - January 6, 2010 - 10:21 am

He is absolutely adorable!! I love the pictures!! Great job Tina.

Gail - January 6, 2010 - 9:40 am

What a CUTIE!! His eyes are SO blue! I love that last shot of him and his mama!

Lisa-Marie - January 6, 2010 - 12:55 am

Awesome job as also Tina! Mary, both you and Lee look great!

Allison - January 6, 2010 - 12:13 am

Sarah Lockard - January 5, 2010 - 11:37 pm

the last photo is one of the sweetest baby/mom photos I have ever seen. yep, awesome.

Mary - January 5, 2010 - 11:33 pm

There are not words to thank you for capturing these moments in our lives. I love them all so much and will cherish them forever. The first one with his fingers is so cliche-Lee (he never takes them out of his mouth!), I adore the boot determination, the walking shot (he looks so big!), but most of all the one where he is giggling up at me. I have tried, but failed to capture that shot, as I wanted to always remember how he looks at me when I get him from his crib in the morning. Thank you thank you thank you for this gift. Love you!
