These are gorgeous – really interesting angles on a few of them. (doesn’t the Mum have pretty eyes!) I love your B&W conversions too.
Rach :)
Oh Tara! These are all SO beautiful! What a darling little family too, so gorgeous :o)
oh they are so gorgeous – esp the breast feeding one and the reflection in the mirror. When are you coming to Australia, no fair :(
WOW! Absolutley gorgeous! I am so seeing the beauty of the intimacy of the home-these are FANTASTIC. What a beautiful couple and sweet little baby!
Please forgive me as this is my first comment ever and I’m just guessing that I’ve done this right.
I have admired your photography for quite a while now and you inspire me to be a better photographer.
I believe life is far too short to miss those beautiful moments and you capture them just right.
Lovely job, Tara. Oh my! Baby is the spitting image of daddy!
Love it!! What a sweet family. I think my favorite is one of the last ones in the album with them sitting on the couch. The perspective is like taking a peek around the corner. brilliant!
Wow, am I the first commenter? A first. LOVE this set…one of my favs of your recent shoots. That daddy looks a little like Dave Matthews! And that boy’s face…like a little man trapped inside a baby’s body, too cute! You captured them perfectly. Great, job…as usual. Do you ever have an off shoot? I think NOT! Again, wanna come visit the wonderful state of TN…go to Nashville, see some country music stars. I about ready to start saving the money for your plane ticket! I need to show some photogs around here your site, show them what they are sorely lacking in family portraiture!
Wonderful pictures, Tara! They look so in love with him.
I know you know this…but I just have to say…I am so inspired by your photography! I have been studying them for months and am hoping to improve my own….thanks so much for giving many of us a new perspective!!
BTW…..the “Jiggles” are hilarious!! A good laugh for sure!! :)
amazing Tara – and I really enjoyed your interview a few days ago – so fun to see that your personality really shines through in your photographs! You are so talented!
another amazing shoot…i just love your color!! and those eyes…man. I just want you to photograph my newborn when it gets here. *sigh*
What a gorgeous family! You captured them beautifully!
This album is wonderful! I am always *so* impressed with the way you tailor each shoot to the family you are shooting. After viewing your albums I always feel like I kind of *know* the family you’ve photographed. You truly have a gift for that.
Greetings from the Lone Star State!! I decided this am to stop being a non-verbal blog stalker!:) These photos are – of course – a m a z i n g. I’ve apparently been learning lots from you…in my last set of pics, I realized that lots were taken with my camera turned:) Thanks for letting us share as you capture moments!
You can tell by the look in his eye how in love the dad is with his new baby and wife. It is priceless.
Tara, these are wonderful.. I have to say they even brought a few tears to my eyes with some of them.. I love the way they are both so in love with their baby and each other.. it just shines right through.. You have captured that brilliantly ..
Wow, girl, you are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. What a beautiful family and you captured so much feeling in every shot. I just learn so much from just looking at your shots and the perspective you have, is just AWESOME!!!
Adorable baby & amazing photos! You have such a knack for capturing emotion beautifully!
Tara these are beautiful. I wonder if you would ever consider sharing some of your metadata info…e.g ISO, f stop and shutter speed on some of these photos. I think we could all learn a lot from you. TIA
really great. i actually think the last pic is my fav. just adore the peeking feeling.
Oh my word. You are so right about the energy. You captured it in every single photo. Bravo. And thank you for sharing with us.
That girl is beautiful, stunning. I love the last pic. -mirror reflecting the fam., very cool.
There are so many of these that I LOVE! The sentiment in all of them is beautiful!
Amazing photos. I am super in love with the one of just that cute lil baby boy on the blanket that had a lot of orange in it. Stunning!
stunning pix!
sigh. you are SO good T. Love what you captured here. amazing stuff.
So beautiful… this album leaves me wondering outloud.. How on earth do the families decide which photos to buy? Surely they just order 2 of everything!
Stunning – the mother was just gorgeous – Dad was a spunk and that precious baby – has mischeif all over him!
there should be a warning lable with your photography
“these photos may cause severe hormonal urges to reproduce”
just a thought

Tara, these are sooo beautiful!!! Thank you so much for sharing…I am learning so much and I’m so inspired by your work. I especially love the way you captured the dad and his spunky character, as well as the new angles you used like the mirror shot. These are just SO AWESOME and BEAUTIFUL!!!
All I can say is…AAAAAAMAZING! These are awesome!! I have learned so much as a photographer just by looking at your awesome photoblog every week! Thanks for sharing all of these wonderful photos!
Such beautiful photos (and gorgeous family). You can really feel the love between the three of them. You captured so many wonderful baby expressions. Awesome!
SPEECHLESS! Well, not totally. These made me cry…absolutely perfect. Loved the nursing photo and just the way the love oozes from these pics. Lucky baby…lovely family! Thanks.
Tara…..you captured yet another family so perfectly!!! I have to be one of your biggest fans!!!……you inspire so many! tfs! : )
These are lovely–so tailored to this family! I love your work and think you should do a US tour of sorts like Jinky’s doing! Just make sure Central Texas is one of the stops. ;)
I love how you seem to make every family look like professional models. You have totally inspired me to take awesome photos of my ten (yes ten) children.
So incredibly beautiful! What a gorgeous little family … thier love radiates. :) -Shell
Gosh Tara, just GORGEOUS!!!
These are amazing, Tara!! The mom is so gorgeous and looks so good for having a baby! (holding back jealousy…)
OH MY GOSH!!!! What an incredible set of photos. I can’t pick a fav. What a beautiful, beautiful family. They take my breath away. They represent all that is beautiful and perfect in this world. A drop-dead gorgeous woman, her handsome, spunky man, and their innocent, beautiful, fresh-from-Heaven son. Their love and joy for that beautiful child has been breathlessly captured by your ultra-talented photography. Pure perfection.
