P was the last of my mini sessions in the studio.  So by the time this poor little guy showed up, it was probably 200 degrees outside.  P had a smile that was infectious.  He LOVES the iPhone much like my own Madeline.  It was reassuring to see I’m not the only parent out there with an addicted preschooler, LOL!  One thing P really loved was looking at his image after I took it.  I’d run over and show him and he’d say “That’s P”.  It was very cute.  I wanna thank P’s entourage.  You kept the smiles flowing and helped me get some great images!  P, I hope I get to see you again.  Maybe you can teach me how to bowl on my iPhone

If you’ve seen my site or blog at all, you know Miss V.  And if you know Miss V, you know her flair for knee socks!  I have to be honest, this is the session I look forward to every fall.  I want to see what kind of cute and crazy socks mom picks out for Miss V.  I have to say she did not disappoint me yet again!

I had a blast at this session, and I’ve got to thank dad for helping me explore the building my studio is in!  You helped me find some great places to shoot!

So it seems I managed to pick the hottest day of the year to hold the mini sessions in my “new” studio.  All of the parents and kids were great sports as not only was it 90+ degrees, the elevator was broken so we had to walk up the 4 flights to the studio.  We managed to raise $40 for the “Let’s Get This” foundation, which will donate 20 books to needy children.  Don’t worry if you miss this round of minis.  I think I’ll be doing a round this fall as well

Now onto B.  He is the naked baby in my blog header.  He’s all over my blog and website as well.  It was nice to see him again, now almost 2 years old, where has the time gone!  And it was nice to see his mom as well.  I have to say, this was my first round of sessions in my studio.  I absolutely LOVE it!  I think the kids do too.  Every single one manged to spend 1/2 the session doing laps running around it, LOL!

A few weeks ago I got the pleasure of meeting Miss C.  She had the most pretty blue eyes and such an adorable smile.  She was also the age I love, 7.5 months.  They can sit, they pretty much smile the entire time and they don’t move, LOL!  I’m sure the next time I see Miss C she’ll give me a run for my money!  Maybe her neighbor cat friend she loves can be my assistant!

I told mom and dad this weekend, little N’s baby photo is probably the most viewed image on my blog.  I do have to say, I love it too….

N’s now a big 1 year old….on the move all over the place.  I had fun shooting him and his big sister S.  S is a great big sister and helped out N often throughout the session.  I have to say I love baby planners.  I feel so privledge that I get to not only watch these little ones go from scrunched up newborns to independent walkers, but I get the honor of documenting these precious times.  Thanks S Family…..Hopefully I’ll see you again when N is even more on the move

I love anytime I get to do a session w/ the C family.  I’ve been photographing the boys since C was 8mos old!  Now he’s a big 3 year old.  It was time for us to do W’s 1 year photos.  Brady was actually due on W’s first birthday, so we had to hold out a bit for his session.

W was much like his older brother C, on the move for his 1 year session.  But I did manage to capture some great photos of him.  I also got to sneak a few of older brother’s C and A.  Mom, I hope these were worth the wait

It’s time to vote for all things Detroit that we know and love.  This year, Lil Sweet Pea Photography is nominated for the best portrait photographer in Detroit

I shot J’s newborn photos back in March, when I was a lovely 30 some weeks pregnant.  Atleast mom knew my pain as I slowly moved around during the session.  I was happy to get back and shoot J again, this time for the 4 month old session.  He has gotten big, well…. LONG!  He was also such a happy smiley baby.  But apparently J has already been informed that I am a Wolverine and he is a Spartan, and that means war.  I laughed so hard when I found one particular image on my cards after the session.  See if you can guess which it is? 

Due to a scheduling conflict, I need to move the date of the mini sessions to August 8th.

Same place, same details, new day
