It seems like adorable, camera ready pups has been the theme at my sessions recently.

Warning: this blog contains a little extra sweetness and a whole lotta cuteness all the way around.

Meet the Collins! Dan and Katelyn are both teachers, previously at the same school [cute, right?] but Katelyn has earned herself some time off for her family before jumping back into that work grind. She has a knack for home decor/interior design and is my DIY soul sister- see all the perfection of their rustic home below, she's seriously a wizard with decorating. Josie is their 3 year old I-don't-know-what-kind of hyperactive sack of furry love, and, all babies are perfect little packages sent from above, [and I swear I don't play favorites- ask my kids] but Luke is the epitome of "Heaven sent"! He was the most perfect little baby during his session. I definitely over shot- I just couldn't bring myself to end this sesh!

I came into their house [welcomed by Josie], carrying my normal armfuls, while Dan wrestled Josie and Katelyn finished up nursing Luke. I prepped my equipment and by the time I was done, Luke was out like a light! I started by wrapping him up nice and tight to get some detail shots and some one-on-one time with that sweet little babe. I had this really cool idea during the session to put Luke in a black and white striped swaddle, epic fail, because he totally camouflaged into his mama's shirt [oops]. He slept right through the mistake of unwrapping and rewrapping into a hot air balloon swaddle that his aunt gifted him.

After spending some time in their well lit, well curated cozy little living area, we went to check out the mint green nursery and share more cuddles. Luke woke up at this point, so Josie got her own spot light shoot in front of my camera, she ate-it-up! Post feeding #2, Luke got to wear a VERY special little onesie that this couple has very patiently and gracefully been waiting and praying to fill with their very own child. After some nursery time, I felt like I should probably leave before I overstayed my welcome, but things were still going way too smooth. We finished up, piling in this mama and daddy's bed for one final cuddle sesh, inclusive of Josie. [Guys- BE CAREFUL, I WILL snuggle the mommies and daddies, too if things get serious enough!] I definitely felt like I would be 100% welcomed if I dog piled on top of Josie girl for their portrait in bed.

I hope you enjoy this Champion, OH rustic, newborn lifestyle session, because I sure did! Congratulations Dan and Katelyn, Luke is a dream.
