Yee Family Session - Full Post

Little J just turned the big one!
When I first talked with his mommy about their family session, I knew right away this would be a fun one. She had been recently inspired by a baby painting session done by Caroline Tran Photography and wanted to do her own spin on it with Jonah (you can see for yourself how he did at the end of this post). She planned on framing his work of art afterwards - great alternative to buying expensive nursery art and much more memorable.


She also hand sewed colorful pillows that spelled out his name and later incorporated it into her one year old party for him - seriously talented, esp. since it was her first sewing project in years! I loved the pop of colors from their outfits and the pillows - thanks Becky and Sun for letting me hang out with you guys, so glad to have met you!














I loved their matching TOMs...




Now on to the painting...






Where's my snacks?






Jonah, you were such a good sport! I know you wanted your kka-kka (crackers in Korean) more than the paint, but you still created a masterpiece~ I hope you keep your name pillows and this painting until you're old and too cool for school so that you can remember how much your mommy and daddy love you!

Yee Family Session - Sneak Peek

This family session was full of colors and fun~
More to come~

Joy Meets Evan

I remember when I had my second daughter, one of my biggest concerns was how my oldest, Naomi, would handle the change. 
Will she be jealous?
Will she feel ignored?
Will they adjust?


I think all mommies ask themselves these questions at one point. 
So when Jenny asked me to shoot the second day of Joy's life, the day when her big brother Evan was coming to the hospital, I totally understood why she'd want to capture that moment. It's a big deal!


Here's how the day unfolded.
Evan arriving with his grandma and grandpa, presents in hand....

His grandma went to the nursery and rolled her slowly in...

Brother meets sister...
First thing he did was quickly grab the pink polka dot bunny and lay it beside her...so sweet. And soon she had many more gifts from big brother...

Jenny had also printed out pictures of their family and lined Joy's bed with it. I thought this was such a loving detail and one only a mommy would think of!

I love this next photo because it shows Andy's father looking on so happily at his son and grandson .... three generations together ... precious.

Jenny and Andy, you are blessed with two amazing gifts from God...thank you for letting me capture these once-in-a-lifetime moments for you...I hope Evan and Joy can look back at these images years later and laugh at how little they were~ love you guys!
