I was so excited that my brother and sister-in-law asked me to come over to take pictures of my brand new niece. Just one week old, she has already captured my heart for eternity.
Oh, how I love her tiny piggies! You know something funny? She totally has my toes. How can an auntie and a niece have the same toes? Wild!
Little Paige Kaylee surprised us all and made her big debut on Christmas Eve… three weeks early. She is healthy and perfect weighing in at seven pounds and eleven ounces.
I made a little announcement for them.
Baby Paige was our best Christmas gift ever. (Don’t tell anyone, but my green Le Creuset baking dish from Kahuna played a close second. Ha!)

Big Kahuna and I have known each other since we were kids and have been married for almost 15 years. We are passionate about our family, travel and serving God. We love helping people and bringing them hope. We laugh ourselves to tears watching classic episodes of Saturday Night Live and The Office. Summer is our favorite season, and we live for warm evenings playing with the kids on the beach.
Big Surf is 14 years old. He's a voracious reader, focused, and spends hours building things. He is our resident techie and is also learning to play the violin. He loves to spend his free time playing baseball, flag football, or out on the trails by the house building his clubhouse.
Goofy Foot is ten years old. He devours his free reading books like there is no tomorrow. He is also the family comedian. If you see him, ask him to tell you a joke! He is tender-hearted, social and compliant. When he is not outside riding his bike, you'll find him drawing or writing a funny book.
Beach Bunny is three years old. She is our sunshine! She joined our family through the unbelievable gift of adoption. Beach Bunny loves to snuggle with us and carefully takes care of her baby dolls. She is super silly and must say hi to everyone! One word that describes her is "joy".

She is beautiful and the pictures are amazing! Congratulations to you family! Now I want one... :)
Love it! I love babies. Can't wait until July for my own!!!! I have to start brainstorming for my announcements. I made them with my first so I'm going to need all the ideas I can get for this one. :)
Love the announcement! You did an awesome job on the pictures~
Congrats Auntie! A true Christmas Eve miracle! She is precious!! My nephew has my toes, and I had to tell him that I'm sorry! HA!!
If you have time, could you please tell me what software you use to make your collages?
Thanks so much!!!!!!
WOW!!! Those pictures are AWESOME!!!!
Little Paige is pretty darn cute too!!!!
Congrats Auntie!
Beautiful pictures of a beautiful baby!
Angela, I used Photoshop Elements 7 to make the collage. I just imported my pics and pasted them onto a new document. Then I resized them and scattered them around to make the collage. Thanks for asking.
Any more Q's just ask! :)
you did a great job! those are beautiful.
Gorgeous photos- we're expecting twin nieces or nephews in May- can't wait! Thanks for commenting on my blog- I love yours- added it to my reader.
Those little baby feet always amaze me! Beautiful!

Holy WOW! Three weeks early and still weighing almost 8 pounds!!! What a big beautiful baby!! Love the pics! Newborn photos are always one of my favorites. I just can't get enough, but doing newborn sessions isn't always as fun as the pictures turn out to be. ;) lol TFS... I didn't see any pics of that new baking dish though....
YOu got skilz mama..... beautiful images. Love them.

Congratulations Auntie!
I love the announcement - well done!
Thanks for commenting on my blog! Your photography is great and I enjoy reading your blog. Your daughter is precious!
These are absolutely stunning shots. How did you do the lighting? Was it natural?
Your niece is gorgeous, and she would have been BIG on time! lol
Hi, Tiffany. Thanks! You are so sweet.
Yes, natural lighting. I just had my brother stand by the window. I also draped a piece of black velvet over his lap.
Any more Q's just ask. I'm no pro by any means. I'm having so much fun learning the ropes.
Do you have any suggestions for me? I'd love to learn!
Hey girl! I love the pictures. You have a gift. Did you edit at all? I'm wondering if I should buy lightroom...it seems to be a favorite with several for editing.
so cute. Little nugget (I call all babies nuggets). Great photos.
