birthdays, Easter and spring! {Michigan Child Photographer}

My family really kicks off celebration this time of year with many birthdays. My husband is first but for some reason I can't get him to participate in his own photo shoot, LOL So that means I'm lucky having 3 kids to bribe into birthday photo shoots. This is my middle child and she just turned 5. I can't begin to tell you how excited she was to turn 5! She burst into my room, early in the morning, and exclaimed "mommy!!! I'm 5!!!" I promised myself I wouldn't whine one time during her birthday about her getting older. I just wanted to celebrate her joy. Although there is a big part of me that truly did celebrate with her because the journey of watching my babies grow is amazing, a small part of me wishes time just went a little bit slower. Here are a couple of my favorites from her session.

Just wanted to add that Easter this year was absolutely wonderful. I love nothing more than spending time with family. Easter usually signifies the return of my grandparents from Florida, which makes it even more special for me and this year was no exception. My cousin hosted and she is a natural born chef, she has a way with food and rocked dinner. Hope everyone else had a great Easter too!

who said 2's are terrible?! {Michigan child photographer}

Seems like I've been seeing a lot of 2 year old boys lately and I don't believe that "terrible 2's" thing. Maybe that's because I have a 2 year old boy and love everything about him. I happen to love this age when baby/toddler/boy collide, it's awesome! This is Mr. H and he was a wonderful 2! I can't get over his adorable looks, check out his smile - I think he looks like some current famous heart throb but I can't think of who. Well regardless, he's a cutie and I loved spending time with him.

Just a boy and his dog {Michigan child photographer}

Sometimes I take a shot that I know I'm just going to love that is not your traditional *smile* shot and these 2 of Mr. D with his dog made me smile, BIG. He looks so cute hugging his doggie for security. Mr. D just turned 2 and I was lucky to have taken his pictures last year when he turned one. I noticed some changes, like he no longer has red in his hair and he's grown a bit ;) But he still has an adorable smile and a bright sparkle in his eyes.

more Baby J {Michigan newborn photographer}

Finally I was able to take baby J's newborn pictures! My house had a bad case of the flu so I had to stay away and here he is at 3 weeks old. I was afraid he was going to look like a big kid already, LOL but he still looks new. He made the best little baby sounds *squeak*, melted my heart. I don't think the feeling was mutual, he was so over me posing him after about 5 minutes ;) Thanks for putting up with me. It was so good to see your mama - I miss you mama J and am looking forward to our play date with all the kids. xoxo K

project 365 {Michigan child photographer}

Today I started the project 365 . Why you ask? ;) Well for years I was only interested in taking photos of things and places and had little interest in people photos. But once I fell in love with photographing people I stopped, pretty much completely, taking photos of anything but people. My goal with this project is to gain a balance and record a year of my life, one photograph at a time. I think it will be really cool to look back at all the photos at the end of the 365. :) I plan to share many here on my blog so keep checking back. So here is 365-Photo 1 :)

sunshine!!! {Michigan child photographer}

The weather was so nice today!! :) Spring makes me happy. Winter here seems so long and days like today where we get a peek at spring make me sing with joy, but not in public as I am tone deaf. I love taking pictures outdoors so today I found a willing subject (with just a small bribe) and captured a bit of sunshine.

I am booking sessions into May and only have a few openings left. Email me at info[at]KristaMuskovinPhotography.com to book your session.

Enjoy tomorrow - the weather is supposed to be nicer than today...yipppeeeeee!!! Yep, I'm happy ;)
