I just about fell over when Jasmine & Michael Rineheart peeled away the blanket over the baby car seat so I could see Aiden for the first time. Oh my gosh. What is it about red-haired blue-eyed babies that turns us to mush? (I’m assuming you’re having a similar reaction right now!) I had the [...]

Maternity Photo Session with Julia, Rand & Bella in Louisville Photography Studio
I was gardening a couple months ago when my neighbor Rand came by to tell me that he and Julia were expecting another little one (!) and he wanted to get his wife a Recherché gift certificate for Mother’s Day! I was so flattered!! We worked out a package for a maternity photo session plus [...]
Baby Portraits of Rollie
I had so much fun meeting this little man! He is 100% on the move! Goal of the day was to capture a shot with his two little bottom teeth which he finally showed me at the very end of the whirlwind of a shoot! Rollie’s gorgeous mother, Jil, and adoring nanny, Colin, were both [...]
Bliss Family Portraits + A Bit of Artistic Expression
I think every artist must go through a period of self-doubt. Mine seems to be about every month of two. Every winter I say to Jay, “I’m not sure I want to be a photographer anymore. I’m not sure I’m good enough.” He smiles at me. I get annoyed and insist that I’m serious. He [...]
Baby Portraits of Little Zadie Feehan: 3 months old!
When Dan & Christy walked into my studio with this little button of a baby girl and she smiled up at me, I was undone. I melted on the spot. I thought, “a 3-month old baby girl is my most favorite thing in the world to photograph!” I had a delightful time with them and [...]
The Schimpf Family Fine Art Maternity Portraits
These shots with the little big sister or brother-to-be checking out the pregnant belly of their mom is about as adorable as it gets! And so very profound. I often wish I had an image of me with my mother when she was pregnant with my brother, Daniel. It would be such a treasure. Sometimes [...]
Maternity Portraits of Alli & Ross at Recherché Photography Studio
Alli & Ross are expecting their baby in just a few weeks. Alli is a nurse and is not only on her feet all day long but has been subjected to some rather ill-advised comments (i.e. “Wow! You are HUGE!”). Sometimes I wish there were magical little shocking mechanisms installed in our brains so [...]
Mikey Hefner’s First Professional Photo Baby Portrait Session
Mikey is the very lucky son of a couple of my favorite clients in all the world, Allison & Christopher Hefner. I photographed their wedding at Beaver Creek Chapel & The Lodge at Vail 5 years ago this fall. And this week they did me the honor of allowing me to photograph their 5 week [...]

Time is just flying by. This sweet baby has become a toddler. I’ve photographer her parents’ wedding, her sister’s first 2 years and now it’s her turn! She is just a doll baby and I had so much fun photographing her in her home. She doesn’t realize this now, but her mom is brilliant and [...]
