Anchorage Infant Photography :: Baby Elijah at 2 Weeks

January 31, 2012 By Erica Leave a Comment

This past weekend I had the opportunity to photograph the sweetest two week old little guy, Elijah. I have always loved to photograph babies, but it had a little extra significance for me this time since soon one of those will be living in our house – woah. Who knew they were so tiny? I really haven’t been around too many brand-new ones. I’m pretty sure I asked his mom a too many questions during our time, but hopefully she didn’t mind : )I always take pictures of their feet, but look how little and wrinkled Elijah’s are still? Love it.

Not many babies have this much awesome hair…it adds to his charm, I’d say.
This one-sie was lovingly made for Elijah by friends of his dad…I think Elijah knew the right face to make for this shot.

Eagle River Child Portrait :: Tessa turns One!

January 25, 2012 By Erica 1 Comment

Tessa is my cousin…isn’t she cute?! Last week I got to capture some pretty special moments as Tessa had celebrated her first birthday. She also experienced her very first taste of sugar…and though it was a mild taste (in the form of a semi-sweet pumpkin muffin!) she sure loved it.This girl has the bluest eyes ever! I love the scrunchy face…I also took a few shots of Tessa just playing at home on a non-party day:
Just before I came over she took a tumble and you can see she’s got a bit of a fat-lip, but she’s still cute as a button (as my grandma would say)Happy First Birthday sweet Tessa : ) I hope these photos will be your memories for years to come!

Sweet baby Rayleigh

December 26, 2011 By Erica 1 Comment

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!! Jamie and I spent it in BC, lots of family time and amazing food (my mom is the best cook!) and today he is snowboarding at Whistler and I am shopping in Vancouver…it has been a good holiday!

My friends Jordan & Lauren had baby Rayleigh about two months ago, and last time I was home visiting I got to take some photos of her. Sometimes, its still hard to believe that I’m at the point in life where my friends (or myself…) are having babies. When did we grow up??
Rayleigh is the sweetest…I think you’ll agree:I love this one.Not too thrilled about the hat, but I still think this one is adorable.

Tristan’s turning one!

November 9, 2011 By Erica Leave a Comment

A couple of years ago I got to work with this lovely little family when Dashiell turned one…so I was really excited to get a call to say that baby #2 had come along and that they would like some one year photos of him as well. I’ve been amazed by the long fall we’ve been having and soaking up the fact that we could be outside on a November evening without even a jacket on…Fall is my favorite. Here’s a preview of Tristan’s photo shoot:We had to do a couple of brother shots, I couldn’t believe how Dash had grown! It is always so much fun to continue to see these families grow over the years…one of the best parts of my job.
so many adorable hats! After leaving this shoot I was more optimistic about the cuteness available in baby boys’ clothing…I had always thought girl things were so much cuter, now I’m not so sure.Of course, we had to do a smash cake! Its tradition now. Tristan wasn’t so sure about it though, I don’t think he really wanted to get messy…What a cutie.Happy First Birthday Tristan!! I hope I’ll get to see you and Dash more as the years go by

This precious little guy is Parker Gregory, not yet two weeks old! Tyler and Ruth have asked Jamie and I to be Parker’s godparents, so it was even more special to meet him for the first time. Of course, I couldn’t pass up the chance to take a few snaps of my brand new godson…could I?!
Oh my goodness…I just can’t get enough! So sleepy : )Those lips…Tyler and Ruth! Come here and bring Parker…I miss him already. Can’t wait to see you all again in a month : )
