You have stolen my heart

This little girl gave us a run for her money on this beautiful day.  She was just amazingly stubborn.  But we did it!  As much as she didn't want to be photographed her loveliness was captured.  Oh if every baby were as loved as this little one!!!!

If we were all loved as much...

So I get this phone call, "Hi Mindy it's Shannon.  I was wondering if you were available at such and such time to come shoot my new baby."  

WHAT!!!?????

 I had the opportunity to take pictures of their first baby.  So I was so excited when I heard from them to come and capture number two!  Doesn't she look amazing?  After having Stella I remember not even leaving my home for the first month.  Let alone getting our pictures done.  I probably would have leveled someone trying to enter my home with a camera.  

Welcome to the world little girl!!  If only every baby was as loved as this one! 

Studio Photography in Cleveland!

This is Jenny and little Lucy.  Jenny is one of my photography buddies.  We both brought our little angels and our cameras and had a great afternoon taking pictures of all the cuteness in my new studio near Cleveland.  The kids cried and fought and played and it was perfect.  I feel so lucky to get to create these beautiful images.  I feel even luckier to have them of me and my daughter.  Those are to come soon.  

Cleveland Ohio wedding and portrait photographer, Mindy Sue.  Specializing in creating images that are natural, photojournalistic and modernly vintage.

Stella is ONE!!

This is my little angel, I adore her!  At one year of age Stella freaking adores her mother.  She also loves food, music, dancing, her binkie and her blanket.  She is scared out of her mind when her sister Tulie enters the room but loves her if she is safely in my arms.  She loves to blow raspberries, play peek-a-boo, fly in the air oh and she hates toys.  We have a million children's toys and she refuses to play with them.  I am so honored to be your Mommy.

Newborn baby pictures

This little newborn baby girl was soooo sad.  She only wanted her Mommy and her Mommy just loved all over her.   The whole time I was with these two taking their pictures I kept thinking about my little baby and how lucky I am to be a Mother.  And lucky that my baby was no longer a newborn and crying unconsolably.  We took our time and were able to get a few beautiful pictures of her.  I would taker her home any day, even with the tears.   

To remember you by

 This summer this beautiful gal was raising her two boys by herself quit often.  Her husband was off working hard in Alaska.  Talk about cold…. and far away.  We had a great time making the boys laugh  and loving on them.  I hope their Dad liked having these images while he was off so far away!

Baby fat rolls….

This family was so fun to work with.  You could just see how much they adore their little angel.  It makes me happy to see babies so loved.  If only all babies were loved and adored like this one…...
