Sweet Baby M

May 31st, 2010 | Families

LOVE that I’ve been a part of seeing this family grow from two, to three, to now four. It seems like I just did their maternity pictures from their first daughter….how time flies! Their older daughter was seriously cracking me up. She’s in the “no” phase. Would you like to sit here? No. Can I hold your sippy cup? No. Can we set the sippy cup on the windowsill? No. Can you hug daddy’s leg? No. Even reverse psychology didn’t work with her. And sometimes she would say no when she obviously meant yes. It was so endearing…I miss those cute little stubborn no’s that only a toddler can give.

Your daughters are absolutely precious! Thanks for spending some time with me for the photo session. Hope you enjoy your peek:)

Miss C

May 30th, 2010 | kids

She is absolutely as cute, sweet and adorable as she looks! She was so good for me and we were done in like 45 minutes. Good thing because this was the 2nd shoot that I did on the super hot day! It was also one of the shoots that has been re-scheduled about 5 times since January because of weather. Glad we were finally able to do the pics.

Hope you enjoy your peek:)

Expectant momma and big-sister-to-be

May 30th, 2010 | Families

I thought this mom-to-be looked magnificent! Such a nice family and I loved everything about hanging with them except the heat! I had 2 sessions back-to-back this day in the am but afterwards said that that would probably be the last mid-day shoot for months! It was hot, hot, hot. And the funniest part of the shoot was when mom and dad would bribe their daughter with an M&M. She would literally take at least 3 or 4 bites of each one. Those things are tiny and to be able to make it last for several bites is pure talent. I can’t even stick to just eating one whole one at a time…it has to be a whole handful.

I brought home…

May 24th, 2010 | Families

some new props. If you’ve read my blog much you’ll know that I’m completely out of room for more props. AND my husband stresses this ALL.THE.TIME. But, the problem is that I’ve wanted to use these for years and knew that I had this shoot with 2 teen sisters coming up and knew it would be perfect for them. I really need a warehouse…that would solve my room for props problem:) maybe.

These beautiful sisters are older versions of what I envision my girls to be like when they are this age…personality-wise. It’ll be interesting to see if it turns out that way. Anyways, they are super sweet, fun, and highly entertaining (just picture chicken fights atop tires and rolling down hills). I had a blast…hope you guys did too!

I had a really busy weekend as far as shoots but didn’t get any computer work time so if you’re waiting on proofs from me I will be buckling down the next couple of days. Thanks for hanging in there with me:):):)

I totally made her do this shot. Thanks for humoring me Miss J!

Nothing like a chicken fight while sitting on top of some tires!

And you have to do a peek-though shot.

No Matter What….

May 20th, 2010 | Seniors

….she looked amazing. In jeans and t-shirt or in her prom dress. Smiling or not smiling. In color or when I change the picture to B&W. I had so much fun hanging with her and her mom and sister….so much fun that I think I caused her cheeks to have permanent damage from all the posing:) Thanks for being such a great sport! Hope you enjoy your peek.

Her mom asked if we could get a couple of pictures of her and her sister (who is 3 years younger) because they are best friends. Really, they are. I hope that my girls can be that close growing up.

In Love

May 17th, 2010 | Engagements

Weddings just aren’t my thing….but engagements.I.LOVE! And these two are so in love and were adorable together. They started out a little nervous but within a few minutes were complete naturals and their adoration for each other just showed. Thanks for letting me capture your love before the wedding! I had a blast and wish you a wonderful wedding day and most awesome future:)

Bluest Eyes Ever and The Chicken is Baaaacccckk

May 15th, 2010 | Babies

I didn’t think that anyone could have bluer (is that spelled right?) eyes than Miss A until last week when I saw her younger sister. I think Miss E’s eyes may be even a little bluer. If you don’t believe me just look at these pictures. My pictures that come straight out of the camera….no photoshopping or enhancing done….have their eyes looking that blue and sparkly. Lucky girls:)

The obnoxious yellow chicken made an appearance during this session. Miss A wasn’t quite sure about him and spent a few minutes sizing him up!

Four Months Old

May 14th, 2010 | Babies

I just realized that this cutie has a hat on in every single picture except one. I guess I should have titled the post “Mr. Hats”. He is sooooo cute and very much ready to get on the move. When his momma had him standing up he was practically running away. Hope you enjoy your peek:) Sorry it’s late!

Cousins

May 10th, 2010 | Families

These cousins (brother & sister / big sis & lil’ sis) got along so well. The older girls are within weeks of age of each other and you could tell that they will grow up super close.

The mom of the littlest one was hoping that she’d be sitting up by the time of our session but she wasn’t quite ready…almost though. They were bribed with ice cream and I hope you got them lots of scoops with lots of sprinkles because they did really great!

Hope your families enjoy the sneak peek:)

For A Little While…

May 8th, 2010 | Families

he was super shy, hanging on to mom or dad’s leg. But once he warmed up to me and found that he really, really liked Cassidy (my daughter and assistant for the day) then he was busy and independent. When I looked through the pictures afterward I noticed that he was running in a ton of them so I had to include a set of running pics. You can even see Cassidy running beside him. And in honor of Mother’s Day I included lots of him and mom.

Hope you enjoy. It was great to meet you guys:)
