Baby Raliegh

I think that I start every newborn post with "I love newborns." I can't help it. What is not to love? They are so sweet and they curl up and you can't help but love them! The Lahr's are incredibly blessed to have this newest little addition in their arms and Raliegh is so blessed to have a family that cares so much about her. 

Here, Raliegh is snuggled up in an antique, train carry-on.

and I think she likes it very, very much!

I love this cute little Raliegh! She is so calm!

I will end on this sweet little note!

Happy Monday!

Brooklyn & Houston

I pulled into their long, winding drive and admired the gorgeous light coming through the trees. Sometimes, it can be challenging to find the kind of illuminating light that is a must for great photography, but not with this family. It was as if you could see a fraction of their inner beauty as you enjoyed the scenery. It was beautiful.

As I was getting ready to park my car, I heard a terrifying bark. I decided to pretend that I was not afraid of this loud, scary dog as I stepped out of my car. I reached out my hand (what was I thinking?!) and I pet the dog. I pet this terrifying dog. And then we came best friends.

Brooklyn wanted some pictures of her with her horse, so we put on boots (rain boots for me, which Stacy so generously let me borrow).

Sometimes it was difficult getting this beautiful horse to cooperate... :)

 I love Brooklyn's joy for life.

and yes, Brooklyn, you are quite beautiful.

You may have seen this photo on facebook, partly because I think it is just completely adorable.

 The handsome Houston...

GORGEOUS.

The Blacks are kind, loving and gentle. I am so blessed to be able to capture part of their lives and to share it with you! Happy Saturday!
