Can I just say that I love working with the Cady family?  Danielle is one of those people that is up for just about anything, and it makes working with her a breeze.  From the initial planning stages of this session, all the way through, she let me take creative control and just let the session happen.  Because of this, it was very easy to capture the uniqueness of her family and really showcase their personalities.

And boy do they have a lot of personality :)

Kitt & Family | Mikaela Joy: Savannah, GA Family Photographer

One of my favorite things about being a photographer is working with the same family more than once and watching how they grow and change.  You may remember this photo from a while back:


I worked with Kitt for the first time for a babywearing session earlier this year.  These two were absolutely wonderful together, and I loved working with them, so of course I was thrilled when Kitt asked me to do photos with her whole family.

It turns out the whole family includes three dogs, and a cat.  She calls them their pack- how perfect is that!

Just like the first time, this family was great to work with.  I can't wait to help them capture more of their future memories!  I also can't wait for another visit to their house just for the chance to lay in their fluffy pile of dogs :)

When I first found out I was pregnant I had big plans to do everything very naturally.  I've held on to some of these idealistic dreams of what parenting would be like,  while others went right out the window.  But one thing that I've really stuck to is breastfeeding, and I'm so glad I have.
I think that breastfeeding is one of the most beautiful things that a mother can do for her child.  It amazes me that every day for the past year of my life, for almost every meal, I have provided nourishment for my son using my own body.  It's amazing what us women are capable of!
