I’ve been wanting to break out into something totally new for quite some time. Tonight was incredible. Absolutely incredible. I could not have asked for more amazing models.
I’m so very excited to announce that I’m teaming up with another extremely talented photographer to bring something totally new to you. Our special, invitation-only event will be announced soon. Curious? (Now you can become a fan of .emme. boudoir on Facebook.)
She is the most calm 1-year-old ever (I should know…I have one at home who is not quite this calm). I had to giggle when at one point, mom was putting tights on her and baby girl just laid there. If that were me, I’d be chasing my daughter all over the place to try and get her feet in those tights. Such a beautiful session with a charming little sweetie.
Hey…thanks to all of you who’ve opened your hearts and shared stories and offered your support here. You never cease to amaze me with your strength and kindness and acceptance of me, even when I’m not super mom (which is like, ALWAYS). You all are incredible.
And, still ONE opening left for our Xpressions next Sunday. I’ve got a GREAT little spot picked out and my husband is assigned to dragging out the clawfoot tub for us.

This is incredibly frustrating and I’m at my wit’s end. Her separation anxiety is bad enough, but when I can’t even set her down long enough to take a few pictures? Beautiful spring day, adorable outfit, perfect light, wonderful moment…totally shattered the second she’s not attached to me.
I’m pulling my hair out! I love my baby girl, but I just cannot function with her in my arms 24-7. It’s not even good enough if I’m sitting on the floor with her…she must be in my arms. Period. I don’t think my husband quite understands the toll this is taking on me. It’s to the point where I don’t even want to go downstairs in the morning because I know the minute she sees me, she’ll walk over, cling to my legs and cry at me. I’ve tried to ignore it in the hopes that she’ll eventually quit, but it’s so draining. We can’t hear ourselves think and then we start snapping at the poor boys. I do give her attention, I give her lots of attention, but I also have to put food on the table and constantly working until 4 a.m. because I can’t get peace otherwise just isn’t the kind of lifestyle I want. I have a Beco carrier, and she’s fine if I’m walking around, but if I try to sit down, she just starts pulling my hair. Nothing is working! I’m holding out hope for preschool, but she can’t start that until September and that’s a LONG time from now.
I’m so sorry to gripe like this. My heart is very heavy because I haven’t dealt with anything like this before. Being loved too much? Who complains about that? I guess I do.
I have to admit it: now that I have a baby girl of my own, I’m a sucker for pics of dads and daughters. Just look at that adoration on dad’s face in this image and how comfy his baby girl looks resting in his arms! Congrats to you guys!
Now for some more images from their fantastic and adorable newborn session:

Dog tired right now, but I just *had* to get a sneaky peek up for mama tonight because I know she’s anxiously awaiting it. M…he is the perfect addition to your little family. So lovely to have watched it grow over the years like this.
