Anxious to make his debut just shy of two weeks early, Joseph Christopher arrived on a chilly Friday morning in Austin and his parents couldn’t have been more in love with their new little guy. Jill and Michael are such a sweet couple and were so welcoming while I was in their home. I really enjoyed spending the morning with them to photograph their handsome baby boy and his most fabulous nursery ~ which deserves a post all of its own ~ so stay tuned …
Here are my favorites.


I see someone who’s all ready for Valentine’s Day!!

Look how sweet Michael is with Joseph.


Such an adorable new little family!

Jill, being a mom suits you! You look gorgeous.




Tiny toes and all that hair!

Joseph’s grandmother made all of his bedding! It was seriously to die for … (be looking for another post soon about the nursery!)

And I’ll end with Joseph and his new pal ~ the Mizzou Tiger! Not only was his dad the mascot for the University of Missouri ~ that’s where his parent’s met!

Michael and Jill … thanks for letting me spend a fun morning with your adorable little guy!
