January is Naked Month!

Filed under: Professional — Micki Benoit @ 10:11 pm

…… got your attention didn’t I?!?!

Let me explain…one of my all-time favorite things to do it to shoot naked babies.

I love the rolls, I love the dimples, I love all of the things that about a baby that are cute at 6 months, and yet…..not so cute at 36 years.

Then, I create what I call a “naked-baby-book” (creative….I know)

It’s a 5×5 little book for mommies to gush over,daddies to “not really get” but most importantly,            I anticipate they will make some GREAT conversation pieces 25 years from now at rehearsal dinners   for future weddings!!

So…this month we got naked with my Womb-to-One kiddos….album will be posted later!

Connor in January…. almost 1 year old!

Filed under: Professional — Micki Benoit @ 11:00 pm

So, we’re at the park and Connor picks up a dried up leaf, and of course…it goes straight in his mouth!
Mommy says “UGH”, makes a silly face & then does a pretend brush-it-off-your-tongue motion thing.
Connor absolutely cracked up! So…..naturally, I get him in focus and tell mommy….do it again please!

So a note to mom & dad: please accept my apologies now for teaching your child that if you pick up random things and put them in your mouth mommy will make a real funny noise, make even funnier faces, and then EVERYONE will laugh at me! The photographer in me will teach other peoples children all sorts of bad habits in order to get a good natural smile…..or 12. :)

Thanks again Connor-man. I’m pretty sad about next month being your last month as one of my W21-kiddos…. start talking to mommy & daddy about a little brother or sister, ok? ;)

Connor’s First Christmas

Filed under: Professional — Micki Benoit @ 9:19 pm

Connor is almost one and he’s already crawling at lightening fast speed and it very very very close to walking.  It’s amazing how much he is developing all of a sudden!

It’s amazing how much he has grown…

And it’s amazing how attached I’ve become to those amazing blue eyes of his!

Ty in December

Filed under: Professional — Micki Benoit @ 12:00 am

We got Ty’s shoot done literally on the last day of December!

Nothing like cutting it close…and speaking of cutting…guess who has teeth?

These babies just grow up too darn fast!

First Christmas for Ty was a white Christmas so we took him out in the snow…he was not nearly as impessed as mommy-Alisa and I were so we opted for a detail shot…..you can probably gues what his poor-little-facial-expression was in this shot.   ;)  God love you for putting up with my Ty!

img_0787See you in 2010 little man!
