Finally getting this up!!! YAY!!! Here is little tiny Miss “L”…she is sooooooooooooo adorable as you can see, hence why I have been wanted to get these online for her momma & daddy to see!!!  I was “L”’s big brothers photographer too and um to say he is cute doesnt really begin to describe his adorablenessm so when I knew little L had arrived I was giddy to see her and see of she looked like her brother!! Um, I think she totally does but she is sooooo feminine to me, her little features are so soft & girlie *swoon* So, yep she is totally as perfect as “O” is:)But as you can see thier momma and daddy are 2 beauuutiful people so, its expected thier babies would follow ;)  Okay well I’m holding my (extremely wiggly) Matthew while typing this, so I’ll keep it short and apologize for the typo’s, lol!! 

I love newborns, love, love, loooooooooooooooooooooooooooove them!   Have a good day everyone!!! …Leave Miss “L” some blog love if you have time ♥

~Shellie (& my trusty 3 month old side-kick  Matthew, lol!)

1) “What shoes would possibly go with this hat?”

2) “Arrived a short time ago but I have already secured the hearts and minds of the local population. Awaiting further instructions from Command…”

3) “Yes, I read the script. I’m a baby and I’m naked. But is the audience going to buy that? What’s my motivation here?”

4) “Of course I’m confident. Go ahead–show ‘em the picture of the cute puppy again. Don’t worry, they’ll be back.”

5) “That’s when she said, ‘To wake in the midst of such a family must be akin to watching the sun rise twice in a single morning.’ Which was a nice thing to say. Unfortunately, all I could think of in response was to spit up.”

Kristen - July 27, 2010 - 5:58 pm

Love, love, LOVE the photos! Where can I get a hat like that for me. :-)

Amy - July 27, 2010 - 8:27 pm

Brooke [ Maternity ]

shellie benson photography | peoria, illinois maternity photographer | studio session | outdoor session | going beyond traditional

Hey guys!! My blog is giving me issues…It’s not letting me log in whenever I want, so my late night blog postings have been well, not happening!!! I have a few more sneak-peeks for the week but if the blog keeps acting up at least one may be up next week instead! I apologize now JUST in case that happens!!

  SO this is Brooke…we like her a little;)This is my hubby’s neice…HOWEVER, I really do consider her much more like a sister than anything sooooo in my “Shellie brain” this is our sis, Brooke, hehehe!!! So our sis is having a BABY GIRL!!!  Isn’t that awesome!? I think so!! It will be so nice to have a little lady around for a change, haha! To bad she lives almost 2 hours north or we would be having her in the studio once a week (at least!), *giggle* (…that’s okay we will be doing that for my sister, Jess, one day who lives about 5 minutes from the studio, haha!! )  So here is Brooke, and shots of her totally perfect & adorable baby girl belly…oh and she was really having a great hair day too, can you say hottie?! LOL!! I wont ramble any further. We ave a busy day ahead and since my blog has been throwing a temper tantrum, I’m gonna see if it will let me post again late this afternoon, verses late at night…wish me luck!!

Here is Brooke and her soon to be beautifully perfect little Miss Logan (who we cant WAIT to meet!) in that sweet belly ( Love ya, girlie!!!)… 

Maybe I will post again today, maybe I wont, LOL! Wish me luck!! Have a GREAT day!!!

Hey guys!! Here we have little Miss J!  She is just about a week older than my Matthew…Um, that makes me happy, LOL!!;)  She’s sooooooooooooooooooo cute! She really made me, her momma and her momma’s friend work for these shots, but oh MY – totally worth it!!  I’m quite jealous of all of the little girl things…headbands, flowers, bows…PINK in general *sigh* …yup, so jealous. Okay I HAVE to keep this short, no rambling for me…It’s nearly 1am and I have lots more work before bed time is allowed;)

Enjoy the beauuuuutiful Miss J!!

Yup – she’s super, duper cute!!!!!!

 Okay peeps – I’ll be posting a few more previews this week – gotta stay on top of them or I’m in trouble!!;)Have a great day!!
