Newborn Baby R - 14 days New - Manhattan , Kansas | Newborn Photographer | Fort Riley | Junction City | Wamego

This precious little girl came to me a little later than the preferred newborn window but thankfully she was still pretty tiny and slept great! At two weeks many babies would rather look at me and put their limbs where THEY want instead of where I would prefer =) . Baby R, however, did fantastic and allowed me to capture some great images!  Her Mom is currently working on her PhD at Kansas State University in a type of animal science.  Mom also shows horses and has 5 horses of her own currently so she brought her show saddle along for some unique photos!  I incorporated some purple & white as well to go with the KSU theme.  Lastly, since her Mom is a graduate of Clemson University, as well as her dearly loved grandfather, I snapped a photo utilizing the Clemson class ring as well because that is special to her and her family, and helps show how tiny her cute little feet are.  =)

This was a fun "Save the Date" session that nearly got rained out but cleared up for us just in time to get some fun, beautiful photos for their custom Save the Date announcements.  We started off in some natural light and finished up the session with a bit of flash in order to capture the gorgeous night sky behind them as the sun set behind the rain clouds.  Their Save the Dates have already been designed to coordinate with their wedding colors and their family & friends will love them!

Sunset Maternity | Manhattan , Kansas | Maternity & Newborn Photographer | Stacey Zoll Photography

I was super excited to photograph this couple as they are expecting their baby girl in September! I think part of my excitement is knowing that I will get to do her newborn photos too, but the maternity photos got my full attention anyways and we had a great night!  This is the first time I had to ask a client to "push out" her belly in a couple of the pictures! Mommy is 32 weeks and still looks awesome and moves pretty well.. though she feels a little cramped of course.. enjoy!

Newborn Girl : 6 days New | Manhattan, KS Photographer

This sweet little girl did wonderful during her full newborn session.  She was sound asleep when they arrived so we got started right away and took some photos of her in her "homecoming" outfit before she got woken up to get undressed.  After a short feeding, we continued on with the session and achieved some wonderful memories for her new family!

Let's Have Some Cake! Cake Smash Photography | Manhattan, KS Photographer

I. LOVE. CAKE. SMASH! I realized I have yet to share some Cake Smash photos and thought I would remedy that.  Cake Smash is, after all, one of my favorite sessions to do.  Something about watching a child timidly eat a cake while giving Mom the "Are you sure this is ok?" look just never gets old! I love the bright colors, the fun, and the candid-ness (that probably isn't a word..) of these sessions.  Children do the darndest things when we get to just let them do their thing!   I have done a cake smash with a 2 year old as well and learned that the first year truly is the best time since the idea of eating on their own, and CAKE for that matter, is such a unique experience to them.  After all, you spent the first year just teaching them how to eat off of a spoon, sit up, stand, maybe walk... and this just shows just how much they grow in that first 365 days.  And to top it off.. you have awesome photos to remember the occasion and show your child's future girlfriends/boyfriends. ;)  Feel free to bring a spare piece for the photographer.. I often drool my way through these sessions, particularly during the editing process! LOL

Cake Smash sessions can be done indoors in my studio or outdoors.

This is an example of the 12x12" Collage offered by SZP. The colors are customizable and are designed to match your child's birthday colors.  If you book a Cake Smash during or before August 2013 this collage is given as a Bonus with Any Cake Smash session!

The picture below is an oldie but a goodie! This was one of the first Cake Smash sessions I ever did so while it would be a little below my standards of today, I still love it!
