.motherhood.

This is why I am a photographer.

Moments like this.

This picture will allow this mother to remember exactly how it felt to hold her 5 day old baby, how tiny she really was (even at 9 lbs!), and how fast they really do grow up.

.5 days old.

My first newborn of the season decided to make an early appearance! I was scheduled to do the photo shoot for her on May 10th, but this little one had something different in mind! She was 5 days old today and I swear each time I work with a newborns it really reminds you what little miracles they are. Welcome to the world I!



Big sister A was so excited about her new little sister. She was really so sweet with her -



I also did a shoot with this little girl last year in March. I can't get over how much she has grown up. :)

.sisters.

Another wonderful family that I have had the joy of shooting twice now. It is one of the best parts of being a photographer, you get to see all of the kids you shoot grow up into little people. This set of sisters I did a shoot with last August and it is amazing how big they have grown! Both are just so beautiful! It was great to see you again! More pictures coming soon!

.first communion.

Congratulations to Allison on your first communion today!

This was a shoot that I had booked over a year ago for a family I have had the privilege of doing a photo shoot with a few times already. This time because of Ali's first communion, the whole family was in town, so we did some great family pictures of everyone. It was a joy to work with all of you!! Here is Allison looking just amazing -



This little boy was actually a twin (his sister is just as cute!). He was so fun to play with and I just loved his suit!

back from the beach!

Auhhh....we are back from vacation! Like everyone else, those first 24 hours back from vacation are always fun. I had 100's of e-mails to read, 10 messages, mail, laundry...you know.

We had a great time! I did end up getting a few pictures of the boys to update my walls. Believe me, the boys don't let me take too many pictures of them without a good bribe!

.mooed.

It is always nice to get something of yours published, but I am just honored to have my packaging published and honored by a international company like Moo!

Last week, on the moo blog, my packaging that I use for all of my prints, cards, books, prints, etc was mentioned.

I take a lot of pride in the presentation of my work and it is a great honor to be mentioned by a company like moo!

Thank you!!!

first photo shoot of the season!

It is so exciting to finally get outside and start my photo shoots! We really lucked out with the weather today for my first photo shoot of the season. It was 60 + here in Rochester today!

And there is nothing better than starting your season with a family you know. These two little boys went to CJ and Connor's day care center, and I have been lucky enough to do a few different photo shoots with them.

Here are a few sneak peaks from today...I can't believe how big the boys have gotten!

.kristin williams photography heads to the beach!.

I will be vacationing in the Myrtle Beach area from Saturday, April 12th through Friday, April 18th. I will be scheduling a couple beach photo shoots for Rochester area families that will be in that area during spring break.

If you are interested in scheduling a photo shoot in sunny South (or North) Carolina e-mail at kristin@kristinwilliamsphotography.com for more details!

I can't wait for this warmer weather!!
