Memories Portraits {blogged} » Peeks into Memories | Knoxville Children’s Photographer, Nancy Belden

Alright guys, here it is, my first experience photographing a birth… and I owe a huge thanks to Liz and Seth for letting me in on their amazing day! Liz is so beautiful and the entire family was so, so gracious, I could not have asked for more.  All of this to say, as much as I’m talking about myself here, that is not what this day was about… this day was truly about just being there with my camera and this family during their most special day… documenting the first journey of sweet Anna Kate.  It was a true miracle to witness this precious girl enter the world… amazing family, amazing girl!   You guys are the best

And, thanks so much to everyone for the amazing response we have gotten for our birth photography services!  We are excited to have more upcoming births within the next little bit… Hannah & Candace — you’re next girls!

oh, and the artists to these amazing songs are Innocence Mission “Wonderful World” and Matthew West “Safe and Sound”.

Remember this? The contest with Regal was a smashing success, and we are so excited that we now have winners to announce! Babies Eva, Sawyer & Kaori’s parents have all been contacted and will be enjoying their prizes soon. And thanks so much to everyone who entered, we had such a great time with this contest (and, from what I hear, Regal had a verrry difficult time deciding… all of the babies were so adorable and so full of personality!) We can’t wait to get Eva & Kaori into the studio for their sessions (and, Sawyer, enjoy your movie themed birthday party!)… see you soon girls!!

These two adorable eight year olds have been coming to Memories since they were just two. Both of them are so fun to work with and a natural in front of the camera, and mom always does a great job coordinating their clothes! Great session, great kids, great job!

Little Ashton was a pro for his first portrait session here at Memories. He has the most beautiful blue eyes and adorable expressions, he’s a natural. I love the images of Ashton with mom and dad… beautiful family!

These two adorable brothers are so much fun to photograph. It’s hard to believe this is little man Brady’s last session of his Baby’s First Year Program, my how time flies when you’re having this much fun. Great session!

We were happy to have little Miss Baya into the studio last week for her first session of her Baby’s First Year Program. She was honestly so sweet and easy going, she made my job very easy. And I have to say, thanks to Baya, that our favorite new color combo at the studio is green and purple. I adore these images!!

Little Rory Kathleen entered the world this morning via planned C-section, and is perfect and healthy weighing in at just over 7 pounds. Her momma is so beautiful and so kind, I was honored to capture this beautiful event for them. We can’t wait to have Miss Rory into the studio for her Squish Session soon… we have big plans for this one!

Baby Abigail was all smiles with her big sister, Elisabeth, for her first session of her Baby’s First Year Program. We photographed big sister with Mom and Dad this past fall, and we were excited to meet this new little one. Two precious girls, too cute!

This family always takes such great images. Mr. Zach is a total ham, and Mom & Dad are so sweet together. Thanks for letting me get a little creative with you guys, this was such a fun session!

As promised, this weeks What to Wear is just for the boys. I love Hanna Anderson and purchasing all of your pieces from the same line will also ensure coordinating your colors exactly. These pieces are all boy, but have good colors and personality to them.

And, now I must confess, that I lost my file with all of the individual links… so, I’m linking to the entire boys shop at Hanna Anderson. I love it all anyway, so be sure to check them out!
