The Hess Family- Castle Rock Family Photographer

Oh my goodness.  Just when I think this family can't get any cuter....they go and do it!

Little Mason is now 4 months old (what the what!?) and he is just the happiest baby!  

You have to check out his big grin in all of the pictures (especially the family pictures).

This little guy has always been more of the shy guy and not as smiley, but I still managed to get him to smile a bit for me.  And his eyelashes are still to die for!!  #notfair

He is a daddy's boy through and through and he just was happy as could be to sit in daddy's lap.  Love these!! 

This sweetie pie.  Still remains one of the most patient and loving big sisters I have ever seen.  Quick to jump in and help and the boys adore her.

Three kids later and you two still have the magic!!!

At the end of our session, the wind picked up and it got CHILLY!  Thank goodness Susan brought along these hats.  Aren't they the cutest?

I am so glad I get to see these guys every few months thanks to my baby's first year package.  And they did the package for Carter too.  

So I have really gotten to know them well over the last 3 years and I have come to adore them!

The love they have for each other is so evident!  It just oozes out of them.

I love it!!!

I can't wait to see you again in a few months and see how much Mason has grown again and see those smiles!!

Mason- Castle Rock Newborn Photography

I first met this family a little over 2 years ago when little Carter was a baby.  Remember how cute he was with his REALLY long eyelashes??  You can see his baby photos if you click here.

Well that sweet little baby has become the big brother now that Mason has arrived.

This little guy is so lucky in that it is very obvious that he is adored already.

This little gal is the best big sister.  She is a like a little mother hen, ready to help out wherever she is needed and has great instincts with her brothers.

Susan and Ellory are both quiet and easy going.  It made for a nice, relaxing session.  Parents that have 3 kids have learned to be a little more chill!.

I have had a huge stretch of baby girls so I was so excited to have a baby boy to photograph again.  I love the simplicity of boy sessions!  Just a couple of cute hats and some blue accents.

Don't you just love this little hat?  Why hello there Mason!

Mason must have been all curled up inside his mama because he sure loved to have his legs up by his face.

The kids loved the "cotton candy" filler so we had to do a few shot of his blanket with the cotton candy.  I love to involve the siblings in the process.

 

Welcome to the world Mason!  You are so sweet and well loved.

The Hess Family- Castle Rock Maternity Photographer

 I love seeing my LiLo families grow year by year.  And there is nothing I love more than getting an email saying "we are expecting another baby soon and we want you do photos for us again".  It brings a giant smile to face and warms my heart.  Needless to say,  I was so excited to get an email from Susan letting me know that their family was growing this year.

This spring has been full of maternity and baby pictures and I have been LOVING it!  Bring on the babies.  I can't get enough of them!!!

Isn't Susan beautiful?  Her belly is SO cute! 

All three kids in one picture.  Awwww.

This is what mothering a 2 year old looks like.  Busy....but full of joy.

Have I told you how much I love belly pictures?  There is something about the hope, love and excitement of a new baby that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. 

These two are perfect together.

 

A little boy giving his mom a flower.  Is there anything sweeter?

Isn't Kailyn so cute??  She has such a gentle spirit and is so helpful with her brother.  She makes a wonderful big sister and I know she is going to love this new baby SO much! 

These two have a special bond.  Makes me wish I had a daughter to snuggle (until the teenage drama comes and then I will just stick with the boys). 

Carter did my Baby's First year program when we was born and now he is a typical 2 year old boy and doesn't want to sit or stand still.  So most of his photos are action shots, but isn't he adorable? 

He seems so big now.  It is hard to believe he was a little baby when I first met him.  Boy how time flies.

 

And those eyelashes.  I have said it after every session but it still stands true that I have total eyelash envy.

Even though Carter was ON THE GO, we managed to get a few family pictures. 

 When we were doing these photos someone walked by and asked if Susan was okay.  Guess she didn't see me with the camera and was wondering why a pregnant lady was just laying in the middle of the walking path on a blanket.  I had a good laugh about that one.

I love Susan's face in this one.  Calm and serene in the midst of Chaos.

We even managed to get some sibling pictures!

 

I love this little family and I can't wait to meet the newest Hess baby in just a few weeks.
