intro-post

Real Photography closed in December 2014 and is no longer accepting clients.

Thank you for your support over the years! Please follow me at my new personal blog: www.needlesandapen.com to keep up with my latest photography, craft, and nursing school adventures.

Hope your Halloween was as amazing as ours was!  (Although I hope you had more success buying pumpkins than we did–trying to buy a pumpkin on Halloween when all of the Springs is sold out?  Not smart!)

We put the moving boxes to good use this year and granted Will’s request to be Wall-E!

(Whew!  The blog is way out of date, so I’ve been trying to be a better blogger and get some of these backlogged sessions uploaded tonight!  We are still swamped with getting caught up on weddings, albums, orders and our recent move, so thanks for hanging in there while the blog was gathering dust!)

It’s no secret that I’m a giant lover of newborns and babies.  (It’s a good month if I can avoid being called a baby hog at our monthly cooking club.)  So having a job where I get to see new babies?  It’s like heaven!  I actually had the honor of photographing Gavin’s birth, so I have seen him even littler than this!  He is so precious and tiny, and he was my best newborn yet–he slept perfectly the whole time, no matter how I moved him around!

The shot on the right through the door is one of my most favorites ever–it reminds me so much of being a new mom and all those cozy private snuggles you get to share with your baby!  (And then they grow up and shout things like “JUST HUMOR ME.”)

Iliana and Freddy have my gratitude for being super flexible the day of their shoot.  I got a call early that morning that a birth I’ve been waiting to photograph was under way, so I contacted Iliana (and was shocked that she was checking her email/texts at such an hour) and she was completely gracious about moving the shoot by a few hours.  It was a wild day and I’m so grateful to Iliana and Freddy for making it possible for me to photograph both!  Here are just a few of my favorites from their engagement portrait shoot!  Get used to seeing these two–their wedding is next week so we’ll be showing their wedding pictures here before much longer!
