Awww.. These images just make me smile. I met Hawkins when he was only a few days old and now he’s 1 year old! I can’t believe it and I find myself thinking “where did the year go?” and know his mom and dad are wondering the same thing. It is so fun to watch Hawkins grow into such a cute little man! Here is one of my favorites from his newborn session and a sneak peek from his 1 year session…

Fall fun… l Anchorage family photographer l

October 21, 2011 – 2:58 pm

The leaves fall so quickly every year and I wish there were more days to do family sessions with the beautiful oranges and late afternoon sun. Luckily the weather cooperated for the McDermott family session. Here are a few of my favorites…. just Miss Ella Rose having some fun. Thank you Sandy for allowing me to photograph your sweet family again this year! I hope you love these ones… (your gallery will be open very soon!)

Custom Product “4×8 Pocket Fold” … l Laura Stoddard Photography l

It has been awhile since I posted sample images of products offered through the studio. I love this custom designed 4×8 pocket fold album. It holds 10-12 images and is perfect for seniors to show off their images or a special gift for grandma (or mom!). Here is a sample using Megan’s senior pictures…

Miss Ava l Anchorage newborn photography l

August 19, 2011 – 4:25 pm

It seemed like a long wait for Miss Ava to get here. We did her beautiful mom’s maternity pictures when they first arrived in Anchorage. Here is the link to her maternity session. I was so excited when Miss Ava finally decided she was ready to fall asleep. I’m so excited to share a few images from her session. These were my favorite with the soft knit blanket and yellow basket. She just looks so sweet. I added some “artistic’ touches to the images for a vintage feel and it works great with these images!
Here are a few from Miss Ava’s first session…

Alaskan adventures… l Anchorage family photography l

August 19, 2011 – 3:34 pm

Our family packed up and went north for the weekend. Our goal was to use the caribou hunting permit our “Poppie” had to use but I was lucky enough to have a few moments to capture a few images. It was a beautiful evening in the Alaskan artic! On Saturday we woke up to dark rain clouds so I truly appreciated the beautiful Friday evening. The sun was shining and the moutains were out in all their glory! The kids had a great time exporing and enjoying looking through the “noculars”. We were lucky enough to bring home a caribou and some blueberries!
Here are a few images from our adventure…

Fall is fast approaching… l Anchorage family photography l

August 8, 2011 – 7:23 am

It seems fall is quickly sneaking into the Anchorage area. The signs of all are all around us. There is even termination dust on the mountain tops! I LOVE FALL! I’ve been waiting for the crisp air, warm sweaters, and the gorgous colors! I am currently scheduling sessions in September and the space is very limited this year. So, please email me if you want to reserve a session time. My email is laura@laurastoddard (dot) com
I am so far behind on my own family pictures (isn’t that horrible, but true!). I wanted to share a beautiful picture of my favorite model from our session last fall…
