Little Lady Love Bug. Columbus Newborn Photography

Bentley Addison Walker.  Newborn.

Born at 8:21 AM on March 28th, 2012.  (A great day…my Mommy’s birthday too!)

She was a bit smaller than her big bubs, weighing in at 7 pounds, 5 ounces.  Mommy and Daddy didn’t know the gender.  What a pleasant surprise.  One boy and one girl.  Just a perfect little family!

It’s a girl! Introducing BENTLEY!!!

Look at this little lady love bug!  She’s posing on the same sock monkey her brother did when he was just a wee one.  Sock monkey’s are something special to this family as Mommy and grandma had these plush toys when they were little.


And here’s Blaze.  The BIG brother.  Although I’m sure he is such a proud big brother, he is a little frightened of his itty bitty sister and has never been this close to her.  A little trickery and some hidden gold fish next to Bentley’s head…worked like a charm.

Some cell phone photos of me snuggling with this little lady bug. (Thanks Justin) Love her so much!

Evelyn Rose. Newborn.

Born March 21, 2012 at 8:18 AM.

7 pounds, 10 ounces, 21 inches.

Evie is the sweetest little girl with seriously the PRETTIEST skin I’ve EVER seen on a newbie. I was sooo smitten, I didn’t want to let go of her when our session was over.

You may remember her big sister, Anabelle. I’ve photographed her milestones and family photos for years. And now, she proudly introduced me to her adorable baby sister.

Baby Evie.
Newborn session = daddy’s much needed break and perfect time to nap!

I’m just so sure they will be the best of friends!
Thank you for your help, Light Girl.  You are the BEST swaddler EVER.  

Graham’s Birth Story

Tasha, a dear friend and photography buddy of mine, asked me to photograph the birth of her son. What an extreme honor! It was so very special to be asked to document such a momentous occasion for the Braniff family.

Graham Joshua Braniff. Born March 27th, 2012 at 7:58 AM.  A very special day for some very special people.  A day I will remember forever.

Watch the beautiful video slideshow HERE.

Grandma made Zoe a book about becoming a big sister.  She read it to her as little Graham was being born.  So precious!


Tash had a scheduled c-section as little guy was breech.
So daddy helped photograph his son taking his first breaths.  
Zoe is such a proud big sister.
And proud friend!

Tasha, thank you for letting me be there on such an intimate important day. Graham will always hold a special place in my heart. It’s hard to believe we used to be neighbors when we were just weeee wittle girls and now we are bringing were wittle babies into the world, isn’t it?! Big hugs!

Tasha Braniff - NO Idea how I missed this before!!
LOVE it :)
You will always hold a special place in our heart for being there and documenting it for us. We love you for that, and cannot thank you enough!

Chanden.  One Year Big.

Crazy.  It’s really bittersweet for me to photograph the big ONE.  Bittersweet because typically I photograph these little people every 3 months starting when they are just a few days old.  You may remember when Chanden was a wee one, HERE.  And when he hit milestones HERE, HERE, and HERE.  And you may remember his Aunt’s beautiful wedding, HERE.  Chanden was THE cutest ring bearer.  EVER.

So…the first photograph you see below… well it’s Chanden trying to hold back the tears.  He’s so sad…he loves his Jo Foto fix every few months.  Thankfully, Mom told him he could come back for more when he turns 18 months.  So he cheered up and the rest of the session was all smiles and laughs.

And he even pulled up in his smooth ride!  

He’ll have no problem getting the ladies with this ride!  Made with love by grandma and grandpa.  I think they’ve outdone themselves with this one!


A very proud Mommy and Daddy.

Thank you for giving me this wonderful opportunity to make such special memories for your family. It is such a huge honor. Big hugs!

Lowe for Love. Columbus Couple Photography

Natalie and Dustin. Together for NINE years. Shew.

A strong relationship is just what this is. Dustin has been in the Army for two years. He had a two week leave and Natalie wanted to jump on the chance to have some beautiful photographs taken together. What a GREAT idea!

They are adorable together. Like a real Barbie and Ken.

Natalie has a tattoo on her foot that says “true love always”.  And I LOVE the “LOVE” bracelet.  Perfect for this!  Dustin wore a matching blue bracelet that said “HOPE”.

And then…

Dustin put on his uniform. WELLLL….Hello handsome soldier!   Pffffeeeerrrrerrrr (that’s my whistle).

Thank you for proudly serving our country. It is very personal, vital and honorable.  Oh…and thank you for making Natalie happy!  Lowe for Love.

It was FREEZING on Monday.  They braved the weather for a some awesome outdoor shots but we just had to sneak in somewhere for some warm cuddle time.  And look at this awesomeness that we stumbled upon…
