Cardinal’s Baseball Newborn Boy Session – Footsteps Photography, Newborn Photographer near RAF Mildenhall

Introducing Mason Mertz. This little love bug was born November 15, 2013, at 7 pounds 13 ounces and 19.4 inches long.

I think he looks like his Daddy and I love how he’s holding his hand up as if to say, “Hello! I’m here!”

This beautiful bench was made by his daddy from different pieces he picked up at an antique store.

Mason looks so cute in all these different settings; I’m not sure I can pick a favorite!

As you might have guessed, Dad is a big Cardinals fan. Maybe Mason will grow up to be a famous baseball player!

With his November birthday, we were able to get a couple shots just in time for Christmas cards. This may just be the cutest snow bunny ever!

I don’t normally show the outtakes from newborn shoots but this one was too good to pass up. Mason decided to relieve himself, as babies are apt to do, all over mama’s lap. Luckily, we were prepared as this is a common occurrence at newborn sessions. I love that his parents just laughed it off and went with the “flow.” Mason Mertz, making his mark on the world since 2013!

Brown Family Christmas Session – Footsteps Photography RAF Mildenhall

You may remember baby Noah from his newborn shoot a few weeks ago. Here he is, back in the studio, but this time, he brought along his parents and two older brothers.

Christian is eight and Benjamin is five and as you can see, they’re pretty proud of their new little brother.

Benjamin wasn’t so keen on posing for the camera but gave me some  smiles by the end of it.

Christian has a huge personality and had me laughing the entire time.

Noah, of course, had changed a ton in just a few short weeks – holding up his head and checking out everything around him.

We did this shoot in the evening and despite braving a torrential rain storm to get here, the Brown boys were still the most well-behaved children I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. Well done, Amy and Mack, on raising such polite and courteous gentlemen!

To finish off this family session, the boys requested we do some silly photos so out came the props and the giggles. Merry Christmas from the Browns!

Baby Bear Smash Cake Session – Footsteps Photography, Children’s Photographer near RAF Mildenhall

Corbin is an old pro in front of the lens, having been at Footsteps Photography studio for both Newborn photos and a Grow With Me session. We made sure to use the same crate from his newborn session for this Smash Cake session to show how much this little guy has changed in just one year.

You may remember his nickname is Baby Bear and as in previous sessions, we made sure to keep with the teddy bear theme. These ones were brought by his mom and are normally in Corbin’s room.

Cake, Love, Crossbones did another fantastic job on this non-artificial flavoring and dye free cake. And Corbin seemed to be very intrigued by the bear on top!

Mmm! Just as yummy as it looks!

Get in my belly!

Happy first birthday, Baby Bear! It’s been such a privilege to capture your first year of life.

Berubee Family Session – Footsteps Photography RAF Mildenhall

This beautiful family braved the ever-changing English weather for their shoot and as you’ll see at the end, it all paid off!

Mom loved the location so we made sure to get some shots where you could see the beautiful building in the background.

The kids are adorable – look at those baby blues! – and I loved that their outfits were coordinated but not matching. You can never go wrong with bold colors!

If you look closely, you’ll notice raindrops in a few of these images. The weather went from sunny to overcast to raining – it’s all part of the fun and challenge of shooting outdoor photography!

Mom wanted a red phone booth shot without it being too obvious, and I think we accomplished that here. This has a very British feel without being in your face. Such a good looking group!

I am in love with this shot – the sunshine, textures, light coming through the fence – perfection.

And after all the crazy weather from sunshine to rain, we ended up with an absolutely gorgeous sunset. It was all worth it!

Mobley Family Christmas Mini Session – Footsteps Photography RAF Mildenhall

After visiting my booth at the RAF Lakenheath Holiday Bazaar, the Mobley family booked a Christmas Mini Session. Between the rain, conflicting schedules and a few location changes, just getting to the shoot had it’s fair share of challenges. Luckily, Katie and Ryan were good sports about it and now have some priceless family photos to show for it.

The Ely Cathedral is a popular site for many of my clients and with the changing of the season, the fall leaves provided a colorful backdrop against the medieval architecture. I love bright, bold colors in my photography and Katie did an impeccable job of coordinating everyone’s outfits to pop against the golden foliage. I was in love with her boots and scarf as well. What a fashionable mom!

This will be Win’s first Christmas so we had to get some shots of him on this festive sleigh. Also, how perfect are those red suspenders?!

He loves his mommy snuggles.

The Mobley’s are just a naturally handsome family and their love for one another definitely translates through the lens.

Everyone knows hats belong in your mouth, not on your head!

The sun finally made an appearance at the end of our session providing the magic light every photographer hopes for. If you look closely, you’ll see a few lingering raindrops yet Katie’s hair still looks perfect while Win and Ryan are all smiles! Despite the initial challenges, we had a great time at this Christmas Mini Session. I trust the Mobley’s will enjoy these photos as much as I enjoyed taking them.
