How completely adorable are these two? Or should I say three! :) They are expecting their first little one coming up in December! I had a blast capturing their excitement and anticipation on welcoming their baby girl. Congratulations, Naomi and Parker!

 

 

Holm+BabyBump: Kitsap County Maternity Photographer

It was such a pleasure to capture this beautiful couple, who is expecting their first little one any day now, (seriously, probably any minute!). It made me remember the exciting feeling that comes with knowing your days as a new parent are so soon! What an exciting time. Congratulations on this new adventure, Jennifer and Mike!

MurphyFamily+BabyBump: Poulsbo Family & Maternity Photographer

I was so excited to help celebrate Danielle's new pending bundle of joy with her and our friends a few weeks ago at her baby shower. Then came my favorite part: the family maternity shoot, with hubby and her two older kiddos! Boy are these guys excited to welcome their little sister Sophia into the world! Life is about to get very fun and exciting for the Murphy family. Thanks, guys, it was a blast!

 

McFarleneFamily+NewBabyElin: Bainbridge Island Family Photographer

I had such a blast last Friday night hanging out with the McFarlane family! It was fun to go down and spend some time at the beach near their new home here on the Kitsap Peninsula. Jack has to be one of the most cooperative toddlers I have ever spent time with, especially when he found out smarties might be involved! :) Perhaps the best part though, was getting to meet new little baby Elin, born just a few short weeks ago. She was such a little angel and I even got a sleepy smile for the camera! Thank you, Lisa and John, it was great working with you!

Happy Birthday, sweet girl!

 

Brand New Blue!: Kitsap County Family & Baby Photographer

Meet Lily, the newest member of the Blue Family! She is such a little doll! I am so blessed to have gotten to know her sweet Momma over the past year. She is truly a loving, giving, and all around amazing person. It melted my heart to capture this little family's sweetest moments of day to day life now as a family of four. Thanks so much for this opportunity and letting me be apart, Peter and Heather!

AveryFamily: Kitsap County Lifestyle Photographer

This is my follow up to yesterday's wonderful announcement from the Avery family. If you missed it, check it out here. I had a great time with this shoot and loved watching how excited about life little Jude is. Can you believe this kid sat and watched this whole book without trying to escape?! That is pretty impressive for an almost one year old! He loved it! Excited to meet your new little one in the fall, Avery family!

Guess what?!

Wait...what? Does this mean I have to share you?!

Hello, 2012!: Kitsap County Children and Family Photographer

What an exciting time January is- to know you have a brand new year ahead of you with endless possibilities! For myself, it's a very exciting time, as 2012 means lots of wonderful change for Inspired Joy Photography. That first change is a blog to showcase my new photo endeavors that will provide a way for my friends, family, and clients to see just what I've been up to. Please follow along with me as I explore my world through my camera and capture each moment one photo at a time!

Until then, I want to say a BIG thank you to those of you that allowed me to snap your picture in 2011. I have been having such a wonderful time building my portfolio and building relationships with all of you. I am so happy you allowed me to capture your special moments. Looking forward to many, many more!
