Adore this family! Let’s just say that we see eye to eye on things… 3 kids, one being a very active little boy–yep, I’m right there with ya!

We started off with some of mom & dad. I think all parents need a few of themselves–it’s how it all started!

The kids… Brother first!

Big sister…

And baby sister–well, she’s 2 now, so not so much a baby anymore!

Love how big sister is guiding the little ones as mom & dad look on…

Hehe! We did a lot of this… Isn’t their bond so cute though?

The family.

Yay! So, mom… I think we got some cute ones! I hope you enjoy them.

Yesterday was a full, but fun day! I held my first day of mini sessions and I would have to say it was the perfect day. Beautiful weather and wonderful families.

My first family was the W family… Mr. E is almost two and so cute! He was a little shy, but he showed us his great little smile several times.

Daddy and Mr. E!

Momma’s Boy…

The family–he was so cute how he’d cuddle up to dad when he was being shy.

He did like my truck!

There’s that big boy!

Weeeee! Fun times…

Sweet family!

Thank you W family. It was a joy meeting you all… I hope you enjoy your sneak peek and I’ll be in touch soon when the proofs are ready.

To top off my fun weekend, I got the honor of celebrating Miss E’s 1st Birthday Party… Well, today is her actual birthday, so a quick, ‘Happy Birthday, Miss E’! Okay, so back to what I was saying… Miss E had a fun pony party with lots of friends and fun. About mid-way through the party, we snuck out to the front to take some pics of her with her family and then all by herself. We’ll just call it a teensy-tiny, mini shoot.

Here is some of what we captured…




Love this! She knew just what to do on the saddle… I see a pony in her near future!





Thank you G family for having me capture Miss E’s memorable 1st birthday! I enjoyed it and can’t wait to share all the fun images with you.

A few weeks back I photographed Miss G at her 1st birthday party, but she wasn’t really into her mini session that day, so we went ahead and rescheduled it to get a few more.

Well, here are some of my favs from that day!






Isn’t she the cutest Minnie Mouse you ever did see? I thought so!

So I’m just a little behind on sneak peeks… I usually marvel in the fact that I get sneak peeks up within 24 hours or less, but that is just not happening these days. It’s great though! I’m so blessed to be this busy and booked. So I thank all of you for making that possible.

Okay, onto the F family… You might recognize them from last year. A family of all blondies with two adorable, sweet little ladies.











Thank you F Family for being so patient on your sneak peek… I hope you guys enjoyed the rest of your day at the Arboretum. It was definitely a beautiful day.

There’s still time to get in a holiday session with JC-Originals Photography… I had a couple of changes to Mini Sessions for this coming Saturday and now have two, possibly 3 openings! Here is your chance to get a great deal on a lot of stuff… Just click here on details to read all that is included. At this point, there are two slots open: 8:15 AM and 9:45 AM. It shows that the 11:15 is open too, but I want to fill the other two first and will leave this one as a maybe.

Contact me now and you’ll get the first pick of the time slot you want!

This is Miss L. She is just shy of one week old… However, she wasn’t due until today and still has the most precious plump cheeks and face. I need everyone to keep having babies so that I can keep taking pictures of them–I absolutely love it!

This one was for daddy…

Little pumpkin!


New family!

Daddy’s girl!

With mommy…

Mommy’s wedding gown… I love when clients come with ideas too!

Gotta have a tutu for those baby girls!

Yay! A smile!

Seriously love this face in this one!


Cheeks are too cute!

Congrats B family! Miss L was a sweetie and I can’t wait to photograph her over this next year.

Miss K has a baby sister now… And she is a doll! I’ve actually known Miss K’s mommy for a while now. We went to school together and then about 18 months ago, I photographed her wedding! Fun times!

And here we are now with baby sister, Miss A!


Sweet profile!

Baby booty!

For daddy!


Doesn’t she look so peaceful?

Love, love, these next two!

Isn’t that a precious face?


Sisters!

Daddy’s little girl…

The new family.

Admiration…

Daddy’s turn…

And mommy’s turn!

Thank you K family! I enjoyed meeting Miss A. She was a doll and has the best big sister! I think I might need to hire her to help me out some. 😉 Congratulations on another precious baby girl!

This past weekend I captured a fun piggy party for two sweet little ones…. It’s the 2nd party I’ve done for them and I have to say–they do it up! The fun way!

Check it out…
Love all the details!


Big Sister Piglet

Little Piglets!

Awww and mommy piglet helping feed the real piglets…

All the fun stuff in one image…

Getting ready for fun!
Several pulls of the string and it’s candy time!

And cupcakes for the birthday boy…

And birthday girl!

Thank you M Family for having me capture this special time! I’m happy to have gotten these memories for you.

They were supposed to be the second, but that rain we got last weekend postponed a couple sessions… So the S family gets to be my first holiday session of the season! Mr. J is approaching 18 months and now is going to be a big brother… So exciting! And let me tell you–it’s been about 5 months since I saw him and I promise you he has changed so much. He’s a little boy now!

Check him out…

The family! I haven’t been to the falls in a year now and it’s always neat to see how pretty they are… I’ve got to start suggesting this place more often!

Daddy and his kiddos!

Mommy’s little man…

Sweet kisses!

Wheeeeeee…


Big sister!



Hook ’em!

Pretty blues…

The bump!

And that’s how we do it folks… The end!

Thank you S family! We survived the ‘cooler’ temps and it was actually a great time since we were the only ones there… A rarity this time of year!
