This precious baby belongs to some very dear riends of ours, Tommy & Myndie Coan, & big sister Lakota.  Myndie kept our kids for years at her house, so she is like a second mother to them!  Congrats on the birth of Miss Kylie McKenna!  She is about 8 days old in these pics….

Well, he finally made it!  Early, of course…. this kid is going to do things his way and he wants his parents to know this from the beginning!  You will probably remember Shawn’s maternity shoot from this post.  Gage was very alert for most of his session, so we didn’t have time to get too creative with a bunch of props.  Shawn finally rocked him to sleep about 1.5 hours in to the shoot!  That is when we got this priceless image….

The blanket is Shawn’s baby blanket from when she was little, and the boots were Sammy’s as a child.  So much fun… thanks guys for letting me come over and play with Gage- looking forward to many more years!  To view the gallery of images click here!

…and soon to be Gage!  Sammy & Shawn are friends of ours that are patiently awaiting the arrival of one stubborn little boy.  He is a breech baby, and he doesn’t want it any other way, so they have scheduled a c-section in a couple of weeks.  Sammy has been helping us start our colts the last couple of years, tending to the horses’ feet, and more recently, helping us get a handle on our show heifers.  It is so nice to have good friends that you can count on that will do anything in the world for you, and you would do the same for them.  This baby has been a long time coming, and there are many family and friends who can’t wait to love on this little cowboy.  It sounds like he has already taken on a few of his daddy’s traits, which isn’t a bad thing Poor Shawn will just have to put up with two of them!  There is also a gallery up that was taken back in June when they just found out they were expecting, and it is one of my favorite shoots that I unfortunately didn’t have time to blog, so make sure to check it out, too!  I’m sure there will be newborn pics there soon so check back later!  To visit their galleries click here.

Ok- This is the cutest couple you  have ever seen.  You could see just how in love they are and the excitement over baby.  Zack took care of Jennifer all night long….We dodged lightning and storms all evening because we just couldn’t put the shoot off any longer.  Baby Erwin will arrive almost two weeks after our session.  They will soon meet baby Emma or Ethan- they wanted that element of surprise.  So after finding out that baby is breech, she is scheduled for a c-section on Thursday.  Good luck guys!  Here are a few of my favorites- there were too many to choose from!

ps- there will be a newborn session to follow, so stay tuned!
