Fall Baby Photos might be my new favorite. Showing up an hour early to a photo shoot has its advantages. Tyler, Scout, and I decided to make the most of our time during a recent senior portrait session.

Our senior portrait client, who lives in Oklahoma, wanted to shoot at Sassafras Springs Vineyard in Northwest Arkansas, and I’m never one to pass up a trip to my favorite local winery! We showed up early to wander the grounds and have a glass of wine, but Scout was looking so cute that we couldn’t resist snapping a few photos. Fall Baby Photos = CHECK!

Another important reason we wanted to photograph these here was that we took Tyler’s boudoir maternity portraits at Sassafras Springs Vineyard. I remember that weekend like it was yesterday. It was right at a year ago, so the fall vibe was similar to when baby Scout was on the inside! I know it’s so cliché to say, but wow what a difference a year makes.

I am trying my best to take as many photos as possible while Scout is little. With Ellie and Cece, I look back and I’m thankful I took so many pictures of them. Usually, by the third child, it becomes less routine to get out the camera and set up a photoshoot, but I am working hard to initiate photos shoots with my 9-month-old sweetheart.
