I thought I would attempt a photo shoot of my family: my husband, baby and I. I had a feeling it was going to be a challenge, me directing, trying to be the "photographer" and also trying to be in the photo, keeping happiness with my husband and baby. Wow! That is why even professionals hire professionals!! I'm so thankful that I had Valorie Darling Photography do my maternity and newborn photos this last year. To be able to pass the job to her, where I can be the client and not have to play 5 different roles, its the way to go-AWESOME! (Val is so amazing, you have to go check out her work! Incredible photographer!!)

I feel like I was able to get some great shots of my beautiful husband and baby, so I was thankful for that :) I didn't want to miss the opportunity for 9month photos of Balian. I love you sweet gorgeous Balian. For his 1 year photos, I'm gonna hire one of my local professional friends:) Then I can be a wife and momma during the shoot:)

Okay, so now for some mess up photos! hahaha! The photo on the right, look at my finger, I'm pointing! Thankfully its not my middle finger!! The camera went off to fast! Note to self, always have fingers ready :)

Love how I'm completely covering Tommy....OOPS! If I was on the other side of the camera that wouldn't have happened!
