Landon Turns One

When it came time for my newphew's first birthday, we all pretty much knew we would need to incorporate the airport. My brother, Landon's dad, is the owner of Smoketown Helicopters and Landon has spent many days of his first year hanging out at the airport. When there is a sound of a helicopter or plane, Landon will point up and say "dada!" with lots of enthusiasm. It was only fitting we work in at least part of his session at the airport. 

The timing of his session was perfect since Jen's parents were in town visiting from Florida. We decided to work in some family photos as well and we had one of the most beautiful fall evenings!

Q&A with Jen, Landon's mama

Tell me something interesting or unique about each of your children.

Landon spends his days at the airport with Dad.

Have we done a session together before? If so, why did you decide to book another?

Yes, AEP has done all of our sessions. AEP always captures the most perfect images of my family. She provides such a comfort during the session.  

What was your favorite part about our session together?

The memories that were created during the session. It was so much fun!

Do you have a favorite photo from your session? If so, which one?

Yes, the one of Landon on the runway is my favorite. This was an impromptu shot that Angie thought of on the spot.

How did you prepare for our photo shoot? How was your experience? Were you nervous or worried before? How did it turn out?

I was not nervous at all. Having used AEP I knew everything would run smoothly. Once again it turned out better than I could have imagined.

What is your best advice to other moms regarding this age?

Do not over think the session. Do not stress!

Sister Session | Lancaster, Berks & Lebanon Child Photographer | Angie Englerth

Emma & Lillian

I am spoiled to have friends with daughters (since I only have boys!) and I get to play around with them every once in awhile. When Lisa asked me to update her girls' photo, I immediately knew what I wanted to do. So we got these matching rompers from Country Couture & Co and took the girls to the creek. Lily was not super into it, but it definitely didn't translate into *most* of the photos. (Anyone with a two year old knows how that goes!)

Lisa said, "I love how you went with the flow because Lillian was not buying it that evening. You still captured great photos and we love them all. I obviously love the pictures when you see the sister bond, but I like the individual ones of the girls by themselves. Thanks again for capturing the little girlies!!!

Brett

Brett approached me a little while ago about a baby plan. We got her all set up and squared away when I offered a maternity session add on. Wow am I glad she did it! She is gorgeous and I can't wait for her baby to look back and see these some day! I asked Brett a little about her session. Here's what she had to say...
 

What is the first thing that ran through your mind when you found out you were pregnant?

Excitement!!! We were thrilled to find out, a little shocked it happened so fast but overjoyed!

What have been the most memorable parts of this pregnancy?

It's all been an experience we'll never forget. Seeing James's love and affection grow for me and our child has been the best part for me. You know you love each other but sharing the gift of baby is such a blessing and we have just grown so much together threw this chapter of our lives.

Did you have any pregnancy cravings? What were they?

Yes milk and cereal threw my first 12 weeks of  nausea. Since then I'm craving ice cream and peanutbutter cups.

What was your favorite part about our session together?

Being in the woods, I love nature and just putting on all the amazing gowns and feeling beautiful. I think it's important for women to feel beautiful during pregnancy especially near the end  and what a better way then doing a photo shoot like this.

How did you prepare for our photo shoot? How was your experience? Were you nervous or worried before? How did it turn out?

I had no expectations, I went there with an open mind and was very excited for my shoot.  They didn't do this stuff 10 years ago when my son was born so for me I couldn't wait! Angie was  awesome to work with and very down to earth. I loved every minute of it!

Do you have a favorite photo from your session? If so, which one?

I do not have a favorite one  but more like a bunch.  I love all my photos making it hard to pick which ones we would want.

What would be your advice to someone getting maternity photographs taken?

My advice to someone getting maternity photos taken for the first time would be you won't regret it and to have fun with it! It's a fun experience!  

Do you have other children? How do they react to the pregnancy? 

We both have children he has a daughter that is 7 we don't have her much but she seams to be excited. I have a son he is 10 and for 8 years it was just us, he was excited then went through a phase of not wanting the baby, but now he is just as excited as us.

Anything else you'd like to add about your session and final images?

I loved this experience and would recommend it to all  mamas expecting a little one.
