Petersen Photography — Images Outside the Box

I hadso much fun today with this little charming baby boy.   Didn’t I do great job at getting him to pose for his upcoming campaign for excedrin pm….heehee, lol.  I think by the end of the session I had given him a headache!  Just look at that expression!!  lol  What a doll!  I thought he was just so darling in the last shot looking ready to give a spinning fast pitch!

For me, this session was extraspecial.  This is my bff, from 2nd grade, and her darling family.  Aren’t they just the cutest?  We had so much fun on the homestead property she grew up on and all her mother’s hard work, in the garden, paid off for me as I went from gorgeous backdrop to beautiful backdrop…It was  a perfect morning and a wonderful way to start my Monday off with!  I can’t believe that my Jenni and I have been friends for over 30 years!  We had so much fun, as seen in the last image, but of course!!  I love you Ji, ENJOY your sneak!!   :–)

Ok, I am officially hooked on maternity sessions now!  :–)  What a wonderful way to start my day off this past Saturday morning than with a beautiful mom-to-be!!  I also found an awesome new location and so we had a lot of fun.  It certainly was a great reminder, for me, of exactly where I was just one year ago at this very time!  Tamara, I can’t wait to meet your sweet baby girl!  :–)  We will have sooo much fun with her newborn session, heehe!!  Thanks for a great day together! 

I had so much fun yesterday with this cutie!  She just turned one and was a pure delight to photograph!  I especially was tickled to recently find my antique pram from the 30’s!  :-)  Enjoy!

I just met Jack yesterday (and of course, his wonderful parents, too) and as you can see, he’s totally darling!  Just 3 months old and 10 pounds of pure sweetness.  As you can tell, we had some fun, o’course…I scrambled like a bumble bee for some shots once he conked out  :-)  …Monica, I know you are anxiously awaiting the sneak, so enjoy!
