[M] first birthday session

So many of my newborns from last year are returning for first birthday pictures. It is crazy to think that much time has gone by already! Mr. M was not a huge fan of his poor cake smash cake, but he did like the bubble bath at the end- especially playing with the rubber duckies! And those family pictures are perfect! Even though he didn't want anything to do with his cake, I was still really happy to see him again after almost a year! Please enjoy his Mama's favorite images f

[J] Newborn Session

Another adorable newborn session up on the blog! Like I said on the last blog post, June has been insane for both newborn and maternity sessions. It seems like July will be just as crazy but I am super excited to meet and snuggle all of these adorable, summer babies! Meet Mr. [J]! We stuck with blues, grays, and some greens to match his nursery. We also did some beautiful and timeless parent poses as well. Please enjoy his parent's favorite images from his recent newborn se

[C] Newborn Session

June has been one crazy, busy month for maternity and newborn sessions! Miss [C] made her debut and I was super excited to get out all my girl props. I feel like it has been boy after boy session for the last few newborns. We stuck with some peachy/neutral tones for her recent session. I had to sneak a little bear bonnet on her just like I did for her big sister's newborn session years ago. Please enjoy her parent's favorite images from her recent newborn session! *Thinking a

[A] Maternity Session

I can't believe my beautiful friend is having a baby! Although, I did guess wrong and sent her a tutu as a gift when I found out she was expecting, I am still really excited to snuggle this little guy. I can't wait to take his newborn portraits! We are definitely going to have to fit a dinosaur into one or two of the photos. Haha For [A]'s maternity session, we headed out to MSU and grabbed these gorgeous gold hour images. It's extra fun to take photos when you know you can b

[J] Baptism Milestone

It was so much fun having Mr. [J] back in the studio to capture these beautiful baptism portraits. Such a wonderful milestone to capture. We went with an all white theme- his Mama brought a GORGEOUS heirloom blanket that I wanted to keep because it was so pretty and a blanket with a perfect quote to add to the background. Please enjoy his Mama's favorite images from his recent session! xoxo Cat photographybycattamayo@gmail.com 517 . 798 . 6438

[S] Lifestyle Family Session

I can't believe it has been six months since I met this awesome family for little [M]'s newborn portraits. I absolutely LOVE getting to see families grow. It is such a blessing that I can be part of these memories. For this session, we did a lifestyle session in the [S]'s home. If you don't know what a lifestyle session is- it is when you take candid shots (posing with interaction prompts) in a setting like the family home. Please enjoy the [S] family's favorite images from t

[D] Maternity Session

I had a lot of fun meeting this new to me family and capturing maternity images for their family. This little guy is going to make the BEST big brother. He was all smiles and loved helping me pull my wagon full of camera gear to new locations. I can't wait to meet his little sister in a few short weeks! The purple gown she is wearing is a designer gown from my client wardrobe. Just one of the wonderful perks of booking a maternity session with Photography by Cat! Please enjoy

[P] Newborn Session

Sweet, little [P] was so tired for the first half of her session...then she decided it was party time and woke up for some nice wide eyed shots at the end of her session. Her name is Pearl - so of course, we had to add a beautiful pearl headband to her session. Lots of purple and blue color schemes make for a nice change to all pink setups. These images will look so beautiful displayed in her new home! Please enjoy her parent's favorite images from Miss [P]'s recent newborn s

[A] First birthday milestone

It is crazy to think this adorable, little girl is already ONE! Feels like we were just taking her newborn and then six month milestone portraits. Time is absolutely flying!! Her Mama planned a super, cute donut themed first birthday cake smash for little, miss [A]! Everything was donut themed from the adorable donut romper to the "sprinkles" covered tutu! Just check out that balloon- it is bigger than she is! Please enjoy her Mama's favorite images from Miss [A]'s recent fir
