Hip hip hooray! Brady is officially a big brother 🙂

Baby Lux Avery is here and I can’t believe one of my good childhood friends is now a mom of two! I feel like it wasn’t that long ago that we were going to a babysitting certification class or our first day of high school together.. afternoons filled with cheerleading practice and pep rallies.. *sigh* Yes those days are long behind us.. But while our time for being a kid is over, it is so awesome to be there on the other side of it now as the ‘adult’ and watch my friends’ little ones begin their own journeys.  Brady is getting so big and loves the Blackhawks and playing instruments, and now he is finally a big brother to baby sister Lux who already looks so much like him.

Anyway here are some of my favorites from our time together, thanks Kelly for letting me come by and capture your new family of four!! XOXO

NOTE: We’ve been getting an increasing number of inquiries lately for babies who have already been born and we’ve been so sad to have to turn families away as we are already booked for the rest of May.  If you are due with your little one and want us to capture your family, be sure to contact us as soon as possible in order to ensure we’re able to fit your newborn session in our calendar.  Visit our site at blog.simplybysuzy.com, or email us at info@simplybysuzy.com or call us at 847.815.7699 for more information. 

above: This was the first time I experimented with doing more ‘classic’ B&W baby portraits on a black background and I gotta say, I love it!  I will definitely be playing around with this set up more at future baby sessions 🙂
