So, just an ordinary day in the Hatten household. Only one minor detail that was a wee bit out of the ordinary. My little man decided to get up a wee bit earlier than usual, which resulted in earlier than normal sleepiness. I thought we would definitely have an early lunch so he could get an early nap. Well, someone just couldn’t quite make it through the 6 minutes it took me to make lunch before he was out stone cold in the recliner in our living room. So, I did what any other mom would do in this position…I posed him like a newborn and took his picture. Let me just say that if I was really mean, I would have scrounged through all my newborn photo gear and had a ball but instead I decided to simply relish in his sleepy state and lose myself just loving this “baby” boy.

August 20, 2010SKYE HATTEN PHOTOGRAPHY: {just one of those days…}
August 11, 2010Some days are just a bit rougher than others and you know it wasn’t so bad when you just look back at it and just laugh. I’m not sure I can explain it adequately but between Little Miss stepping in dog poop, my Little Man aggravating her each and every second he had, big tears from her out of frustration, Little Man taking a series of ink stamps and covering his entire body, which required a bath, AND noticing fresh warm pee on my carpet approximately an inch from the linoleum in our bathroom from my weiner dog (whom we don’t usually have much for house training issues) who didn’t find much interest in going outside as it was looking like it was going to rain. This required immediate cleanup with the addition of Little Man attempting to close the bathroom door on my legs and taking no reservations in stepping over me as I’m trying to clean it up. I think he was indeed attempting to ride on my back all the while shouting “giddy-up horse.” This followed by me asking Little Miss to get her shoes on as we were going to be headed out the door to a friends house for dinner…a minute passes and she somehow got something in her eye, which actually is kind of bad because it ended up being irritated all evening. I’m a little bit concerned about it but am hoping it’s a bit better after resting it over the night. Needless to say, it has certainly just been one of those days. On the highlight list though was holding my little buddy as we left the park before lunch and he of course had his thumb in his mouth with one hand and it melted my heart that he was rubbing my back with the other. As for Little Miss, cuddling her up tonight, teasing her, and seeing her sweet smiles even though she kept her eyes closed the whole time. I’m just crazy about those little turkeys.
As for some pics, I just wanted to share some more from this session. Their little family of four is pure sunshine.
SKYE HATTEN PHOTOGRAPHY: {Happy 4th of July…}
July 4, 2010Just wanted to drop in and wish everyone a Happy 4th of July. I do have to admit that I haven’t really been into fireworks in years but now that I have kiddos, it’s starting to wear on me again. For as busy and curious my littlest buddy in the house is, I can’t help but be a bit surprised by how tightly he grabs my leg at the sound and sight of fireworks. I have a feeling that he may be in bed before the festivities begin but Little Miss is ready to go!
Anyway, off to a fun-filled family day but just leaving you with some pics of this little lady (here too)…yes, folks, living proof that they just don’t stay tiny forever…how about that smile??!
I had to steal this one of Mr. B…
SKYE HATTEN PHOTOGRAPHY: {beautiful…}
June 6, 2010There really isn’t another word to describe this little family and they made MY early morning beautiful just spending time with them. Aren’t they adorable??!
Thanks K crew for putting your trust in me for your first family photo session…you guys did amazing! Truly, you are the sweetest little family and your kiddos, oh your kiddos! Wow, what sweethearts!! I absolutely cannot wait for you to see the rest of your images!!
SKYE HATTEN PHOTOGRAPHY: {Baby Sterling…}
May 18, 2010This sweet little being is the first baby for HIS parents…I officially give them permission to continue having babies and more babies. He was my second dose of newborn sweetness over the weekend. I’m not sure if Mr. Hatten is going to be allowing me to hang out with these cute lil’ new babies for fear of me getting any ideas.
Thanks N & M for having me in your home…you have one handsome little guy on your hands and together, you make the sweetest little family. Hope you like what you see!
SKYE HATTEN PHOTOGRAPHY: {Baby Eli…}
May 16, 2010Crazy day with not one but two newborn sessions…not typical but what the heck? I mean really, hanging out with two brand new baby boys…I got a sweet fix today. Up first, meet Mr. Eli and his locks. He gave us a bit of a run for our money today but in the end, I think we won.
Thanks again “C” family for hosting me in your home. I had a great time seeing you all – your kiddos are just beautiful…hope you like your sneak peek!
SKYE HATTEN PHOTOGRAPHY: {one more makes three…}
January 18, 2010Okay, I sit here and write this and just want to hold this little girlie again. I surely did not get my fill. She is seven pounds of sheer sweetness and I miss that sleepy baby girl already. Welcome to the family Miss A…you are so very loved!
(Thanks guys for having me take pics of the most recent addition to our posse…as if you had a choice! She truly is beautiful! Here’s a little sneak peek…)



She joins two big brothers and she’s so very adored by them…

SKYE HATTEN PHOTOGRAPHY: {Stop, November, Stop!}
November 18, 2009Whew, that was a bit of a dry spell! November is going by too quickly for me!! I’m certain it is going by too quickly for you also so just wanted to toss out the reminder to all of my 2009 clients that I’ve extended my deadline for holiday orders to next week. I do take December off to focus entirely on my family so will not be processing any orders after this month. If you’re looking at Christmas cards, I would love to put some together for you!
This fall has been a busy one and I’ve been stockpiling some of my favorite photos to share. Here are a few more from this session.




SKYE HATTEN PHOTOGRAPHY: {Hi World.}
October 25, 2009Meet Hazel.
She’s beautiful.
Now, allow me to share a bit of what I got to see behind the lens this afternoon…

Mom and Dad are also stunning…


Mom happens to be an AMAZING artist! Her artwork adorns much of her baby girls room and it’s just, well, AMAZING!

SKYE HATTEN PHOTOGRAPHY: {Fall has arrived.}
October 4, 2009Truly, I’m not going to lie to you…Summer is without a doubt my least favorite season of the four. So, I can’t tell you how excited I am to be in my absolutely favorite season. This weekend definitely makes me happy as it has turned colder, our fall/Halloween decorations are up, and Brothers and Sisters is back on the tube. On top of that, we did a movie night with the kiddos last night…HSM3 baby! So, I have never watched High School Musical so just started the third installment to see what it was all about. The four of us ended up watching the entire thing and I have to say that Little Miss was completely into it and my littlest friend in the house just couldn’t help but shake his little bum and nod his head at the sound of any music. As for the husband, he’s out buying the soundtrack as we speak…okay, maybe not.
Anyway, enough about us, I was able to spend some time with this little family yesterday afternoon. You may remember them as a family of three here. Things have definitely changed as they’ve increased by one more sweet little boy who has just recently embarked upon the grand ol’ age of one. Thanks B Family for entertaining me! As always, love hanging out with your crew…





No B Family photo session is complete without at least one photo of a stuffed friend. Let me introduce you to “Bunns.”
