I was totally thrilled not only to photograph my dear friends’ adorable baby, but it was also the first time I got to meet him, while he was visiting his grandparents in Shelbyville, KY. Beth, Gabe, and Lex live in Brooklyn, so I have missed seeing them dearly for several years. Lex is completely adorable, and just as beautiful as both of his parents. We had so much fun doing this lifestyle session. I love focusing on the relationship between family members, and capturing the love they share. Their proof gallery was a mixture of black and white and color, but since my absolute favorite for this documentary style of photography is black and white, I am offering my blog selections as such. (Perhaps in an effort to encourage others to have their sessions done completely in black and white as well).
Also, notice the new logo? I love it! I am transitioning my business name from KL Puckett Photography to KL Photography, and the new logo is part of my new branding.

Kimmie already knows how dear her family is to me and how much I love her boys! I had the hardest time choosing just 4 from the close-up series on little Alex. There are about a million, each with a different adorable expression.
So on with the pictures

It never ceases to amaze me how quickly babies grow. I did a session with Landon and Kai’s big extended family when everyone gathered together over the Christmas holidays, and Kai was just a roly-poly little baby. We did another session of just her and her brother in June, and I couldn’t believe how much she had grown in just a few short months. She has turned into a toddler! Landon was just as handsome as ever, and quite a bit less camera shy than he was a few months ago. I’ve had the pleasure of watching Landon grow as well; several years ago when I was branching out on my own full time with the photo business, little baby Landon was one of my very first clients. I love being able to document how families grow and change through the years; it is one of my favorite things about what I do!
For comparison, here’s a picture of Kai from New Year’s day:

Yesterday was a beautiful winter day; not too cold, but there was still snow on the ground and the light was perfect in the morning. So I bundled the kids up and we went on a little walk around the neighborhood. We had a lot of fun exploring, listening to the birds, and running around in the snow (well, that part was Wesley, Connor and I wanted to stay dry).
First, here’s a couple pics of my little Valentines:

Alexander Xavier arrived in this world Sunday, December 2nd at 2:11 pm, weighing 7 lbs 11 oz, and 22 inches long (I think–Kimmie, correct me if I got it wrong). Mom and baby are doing great!
Here’s his first bath:

I was so happy to hear from Julie when she emailed me about doing some family pictures this fall. I was even happier to hear that they had an addition to their family! She and Jeff used to take care of my Wesley at their preschool when he was a baby and toddler while I was still teaching at Eminence. Good grief, how time flies!
We missed the light on our first attempt, but the second portrait session turned out to be the charm. We had a beautiful, crisp fall morning and the light was perfect. (It is an interesting contrast to note the “temperature” difference of the light–the group photo below where they were holding hands was taken in the evening at the first shoot. The morning light is so much warmer in the rest of them!)
I love how all the pictures turned out, but the real star of the show was lovely Liliah, the newest member of the family. She was so cute, running after her two big brothers. She was a bundle of energy for sure!
Jeff and Julie should be proud of such a beautiful family!

Well, almost baby Alex anyway! Oh my gosh, isn’t she gorgeous???
