I was so excited when the mom of these adorable brothers called for a fall session…I’ve been photographing them since the littlest guy was about 10 months old, and now at two he is cuter than ever!! Big brother was quite the charmer today, flashing smiles and playing games…he loved climbing all over the trains! These little ones are special here at MZP…the kindest kids and the best mom! Thanks for spending the morning with me…I hope Kountry Donuts was yummy!

I can’t believe Rylee is almost one! I have quite a few baby planners reaching their milestone session this spring/summer – and while it has been super fun watching them grow, it makes me sad! We met yesterday for a super quick 15 minute session to get some shots for her birthday invites…we’ll do a full fledged one year session in a couple of weeks, but I couldn’t resist sharing a few of these!

Look who’s ONE! I can’t believe the year is over…sweet little Addi just graduated from my baby plan! She is a bundle of smiles – always has been – and she’d got daddy wrapped around her finger (not a bad thing at all!)…while he’s overseas helping to protect our country, mom and Addi met me for a special one year session! Everything started out really great…

Mom and I spotted some ducks…

Then Addi saw them too…

We took a little break for a wardrobe change…and some goldfish, she eating (read: cramming) a few in here…

I got one more with those amazing eyes, and then she was done!

Hope you napped really well little miss, can’t wait to finish up your session on Monday! And Daddy, hope you love these…we’ll definitely get some family shots when you get home! Be safe…and thank you!

…about this little one! What an extremely happy baby she is – love it! It was so fun to have baby planner, Miss R, back for her 8 month session today! And I am so excited that this family will soon be moving into my neighborhood…that means I’ll get to see her a whole lot more – so fun!!

Aunt Joe, I love this hat, great taste!

My two clients this weekend are not related, but both have traveled to other countries by the time they were one! It is fun to be photographing the “jet-setting” crowd! LOL. Meet Mister M, the adorable friend of some of my favorite clients, and an absolutely lovable one-year-old! It was only in the 40′s today, that’s freezing for us Texans, and this little guy braved the cold and delivered some gorgeous shots! Enjoy the sneak peek!

Meet mister L, four days of pure delight! His mom is this gorgeous lovely from a few weeks back. He wasn’t too sure about all the posing we wanted him to do – but he was too precious, and we got some great stuff!

I had the most amazing sessions today! We shot at the loft in Dallas for some classic white on white images – gorgeous!

It is just about time to revamp my current display at babybliss, and some of their favorite customers were gifted with sessions from me, as their little one’s will grace the walls of the next display! These kiddos are gorgeous and have some serious style!

The rest of the afternoon was spent with some holiday mini-session clients, all repeat client from last year. I love, love seeing how much they’ve all grown! They were all beautiful and dressed so well!

Hope you all enjoy your sneak peeks…thank you for today, I had a blast!

…she’d be back! Miss A was stunning for this morning’s 6 month session – all smiles and totally sweet during *all* the clothing changes!

Thanks to mom and dad for all the fun outfits, indulging my requests to place your daughter in some wacky places, and for helping carry the chair! I hope you love these…and I hope she took a great nap for you!

You all know this gorgeous blue-eyed beauty…she’s a baby-planner who I adore! Today she was baptized, and I got the chance to attend and take pictures to commemorate the day. What fun I had…as Miss A was all smiles for me!

Stay tuned to the blog next weekend for more of this little wonder – we’ll be shooting her six month portraits this coming Saturday!

I love the summer…it has been newborn central, with several more scheduled for August and September!! I love, love fresh souls, they are my favorite to photograph!

Meet Mister J…6 pounds of adorable boy. He made his entrance nearly two weeks early, and at a week old, he was totally interested in everything going on in his house today, which meant he didn’t sleep a wink! It is a good thing though, because he has some amazing eyes!! Thanks to mom, dad, & grandma for sharing him with me today…it was amazing!

Meet Miss R…8 pounds of pure perfection! After making mom and dad wait thirteen days past her due date to finally meet her, she made her entrance fast! I shot mom’s maternity session six weeks ago (http://melissazihlman.com/Blog/2008/06/09/perfect-belly/)…and mom and baby look so much alike!

Here’s a quick sneak peek for mom, dad, and the whole family! More to come…

I promised some more from yesterday’s minis, and when I opened this picture tonight, I just knew I had to share it…

…sweet Miss A found her tongue mid shoot – it was the cutest thing I have ever seen! She would roll it around, stick it out, and then smile so big at Daddy – perfection! I adore the eye contact I got here, and the amazing light stream down around her…

Meet Mister B and his little brother Mister R! At seventeen months apart, these two sure give their mom a workout, but gosh they are super cute aren’t they! They were troopers – coming all the way to Dallas for the first time slot this morning!

And checkout this darling 10-week old, Miss A. She has the best blue eyes! 10-weeks can be a hard age to photograph, but Miss A’s personality was fabulous…I got the best grins!! And she found her tongue…I’ll post one of those adorable shots in a bit!

It is time for a new display at babybliss…so I enlisted some of their favorite little customers to be featured on canvas! This morning, at a loft in Dallas, I met with three families…here’s the first sweet little angel. Meet Miss M, 3 months of pure happiness! You should see how her parent’s faces light up when she smiles! Gorgeous!

I’ll be back in a bit with the other two amazing families…their sneak peeks are to die for!
