The wait is over....

I am proud to finally introduce my new website! I finally got it up an running - let's just hope it stays that way :) My new site is now officially located at www.leahrobbins.com, the place it should have been all along! I would love to hear feedback for it - what you like/don't like, etc. Thanks for being patient! I hope you enjoy the new look!

I wanted to give a special thanks to the musicians on my site. You will recognize two of the songs, but the first song is a new one. The first song is called Bittersweet End and is by Rick Hopkins. The other songs are by my friends, Adam Wilson, and Ryan Smith. All three artists can be found on iTunes - you should definitely check them out!

Valentine's Day surprise

So I don't think I need to tell you how awesome my husband is, but I will anyways. He always does such a good job at showing me how much he loves me, and this Valentine's Day was no exception. I received a bouquet of 18 long stem red roses at our front door just before V-Day. Not only was it a great surprise because it was early, but also because of how beautiful they were!






Oh, and I'll give a little plug for the company he buys them from....He always gets me flowers from proflowers.com because they last for weeks! The bouquets come in bud form, and they bloom after you get them, which enables you to enjoy them so much longer. So, men, take notes!

Thanks, Matthew, for a great V-Day gift and a great V-Day! I love you!!

Almost there...

Ok, so I was a little off on my new site launching....The hosting company is a little behind in getting it up, but it should be very soon!

If you have tried to access my webpage (www.leahrobbins.com), you have probably noticed that it's down. In all actuality, my old site still exists - it's parked at www.lcrobbins.com. If you've ever noticed that when you typed in leahrobbins.com, lcrobbins.com was actually what pulled up. For some strange reason, when I started my business, I started it as LC Robbins Photography, not Leah Robbins Photography. But once I got everything set up (including my website), I changed it, but I never moved my site from www.lcrobbins.com. But the good news is that when my new site is up, it will ACTUALLY be at www.leahrobbins.com - imagine that! :) So you can get rid of the lcrobbins.com and move on to the new and improved leahrobbins.com (Good bye, first website! You were good to us and we will miss you!)

I will post on here as soon as the new site is officially up.... (And that better be soon, hosting company!)

Notice anything?

As promised, my updates are getting done! My new website should launch within HOURS and I'm working on updating my new logo to everything! I'm so excited, I can hardly stand it! While all the updates are taking place, there may be some things out of whack or may not work properly - have patience, I hope to work out any kinks as fast as possible! But bear with me as I get these updates up and rolling.

It feels so good to have a fresh new look, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I've enjoyed doing it! Thank you for your continued support in my work and I hope you continue to follow Leah Robbins Photography as I take this business to new levels!

Lauren Louisa Gray

Earlier this week, I had the privilege of photographing Lauren who was born on January 25. She is only 2 weeks old and such a precious little baby girl! This was also my first baby photo shoot since having a baby of my own, so it was extra special to do. Babies are such a joy and a gift from the Lord that it is indescribable how blessed I feel to be able to photograph them! I look forward to photographing Lauren over the next year and watch her grow! Here are a few of my favorites, along with her slideshow...

Thank you, Deborah and Joe, for letting me into your home to photograph your precious baby girl!

Seth is 2 months old!

I can't believe Seth is already 2 months old! He has grown and changed so much! He's laughing, smiling, talking, and just interacting a lot more. However, he could be smiling like crazy, but as soon as I whip out my camera, he freezes and loses that sweet smile...Guess that's something we'll just have to work on!

New logo

As part of my many updates (which I know you are anxiously waiting on the edge of your seat for!), I am re-doing my logo. So far, this is what I've come up with...



I'd love to get your input and feedback! Thanks!
I am making progress on the website - not too much longer!

Major updates on the way!

With a new year, I thought it would only be appropriate with a new and fresh start. I am so excited to announce that I have many new updates to Leah Robbins Photography coming! When these updates are going to show up depends on how much time Seth will allow me to be on the computer, but they will come, I promise! So for those who have been stalking my website (and I know you're out there - you tell me all the time), you will finally have something new to look at! I can't wait to get the ball rolling on this, so I better get off my blog and do some work! Have a great new year, everyone!

Seth's birth

I know I'm a little behind in posting this, but I've been a little busy lately. At Seth's birth, we had Laura Leppert Knabe of Leppert Photography present to photograph this wonderful event. And man, am I glad we had her there!! Not only do I have Seth's birth documented, but she did a fantastic job at capturing the overwhelming joy (and relief after 24 hrs of labor) we all felt at his arrival!! Present at the birth was Matthew, Laura, my mom, and Matthew's mom.

I put together a little slideshow of some of my favorites from that wonderful morning....

Thanks, Laura, for doing a fantastic job!

Seth's first few weeks...

So I hope everyone can understand why my blog has been so neglected recently. Between becoming the mother of the most wonderful kid ever and Christmas, I just had more important things to do. But now that things are starting to die down, I'd love to show just a little more of my sweet little man! I've taken a few pictures of my own, and plan on taking tons more (obviously), and my sister-in-law, Diana, did some newborn pics as well. You can see those pictures on her blog. She's amazing, as always!

I've taken just a few pictures of our precious little man, as you might have imagined :) But since I've been so behind on posting, I only have time to share just a few... There will be more to come! I just can't believe how much he as grown already!!


Seth's 1st Christmas -"Good things come in small packages"


















His first smile...

Seth has arrived!

Seth Cory Robbins was born on December 9, 2008 at 7:38 am! He weighed in at 7lbs 8oz and was 21.5 in long. Matthew and I are so thrilled to finally welcome our little man into the family!! My wonderful husband put together this video of his birth....enjoy!



I can't wait to share more about him, but I want to take this opportunity to go get a nap :)

The Skoog Family

While we were in Batesville hanging out at Matthew's parents for the weekend, we decided to do an impromptu family photo session of the Skoog family. Jennifer is Matthew's sister, which makes those adorable children two of our eight nieces and nephews.....I just can't get enough of all these cute kids! We are really blessed - and baby Robbins has a lot of cuteness to live up to....
