Chapel Hill Newborn Baby Child Photographer - Darling Art Photography Blog by Rebecca Mudrick http://darling-art.com/blog Darling Art Photography Blog Thu, 20 Nov 2008 00:17:11 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.2 en Then and Now: Buster and Petey http://darling-art.com/blog/2008/11/19/then-and-now-buster-and-petey/ http://darling-art.com/blog/2008/11/19/then-and-now-buster-and-petey/#comments Wed, 19 Nov 2008 23:53:29 +0000 admin http://darling-art.com/blog/2008/11/19/then-and-now-buster-and-petey/ When I mentioned I saw a lot of repeat clients this fall, I wasn’t kidding!  I first photographed “Buster” when he was just 6 months old and have been photographing him since as both he and as his family grew.  It’s so much fun watching these kids grow up …

Here are a few images from over the years, starting with the birth of little brother Petey:

And then 6 months later …

And then most recently … this fall:

This last one is an out take from the end of the session and it cracks me up so I thought I’d share.  I love how little Petey is totally wiped out while Buster is still going strong.  :)

From our first session, four years ago:

Can you believe how much they’ve grown up!?!  What a pleasure it’s been to photograph these girls over the years …

Speaking of photographing kids over the years, it’s a gorgeous fall day in Chapel Hill and my boys have the day off of school.  Think I can pass up this opportunity for a session with my own darlings monkeys?  Nope.  Think they’ll cooperate?  Of course not.  Wish me luck - I’ll need it!  :)

xoxo,

Rebecca

Just a few more from the Glee mini’s now that all the sessions are edited and ready to send out.  Yay!

Also, a bunch of folks have asked if we’ll be doing another round of mini sessions this year.  Unfortunately this is it until the Spring.  Melissa Russell and I plan on teaming up for another day of mini sessions at Glee Kids in the Spring - most likely in April.  Be sure to email (rebecca@darling-art.com) if you’re interested in being on the email list for those April sessions and we’ll be in touch.

Without further ado … a few more Chapel Hill darlings:

No post is complete without images and I’m excited to share this bunch.  I can not imagine more photogenic children or a more photogenic home.  I love the architectural details and textures in this gorgeous Boston home and would die and go to heaven to have a place just like this as a studio.  And these four kids … well, see for yourself.  They’re all just stunning.

I first captured this little guy when he was about 4 months old.  Here he is then:

Now I believe he’s around 18 months old and is not only all grown up, but is a big brother as well!  I don’t know about you, but I see a glimpse of his former baby-self in there …
