Amber messaged me on FACEBOOK hoping to schedule photos with her boyfriend and her little guy!! We met at my house because our red leaves are my FAVORITE in late October!!

GAH!! He is SO adorable!

I took SO many photos – so stay tuned!!

The smiles are almost always a little bigger at the end of the session!!

I LOVE THOSE ONES!!

Susan – thank you SO much for spending the evening with me!! I am SO happy we were finally able to schedule this session!!

Susan got a gift certificate for her family last year for Christmas and we were finally able to schedule in October!!

When was the last time you ALL had family photos together!?

I love those shots!!

That might be my favorite!!

Matt & Renata – thank you SO MUCH for making the trip down to see me!! I always LOVE hanging out with you!!

I’ve said it A LOT this year – but I’ve been photographing Renata & Matt for the past TEN years!!

Their son *A* reminds me SO MUCH of my Enoch. They’re the same age and have so many of the same mannerisms!

I LOVE these rocks – it was NOT the easiest place to get to – but they make it look SO easy!!

I LOVE THOSE!!! Such sweet moments!

I think every session with kids should end at the playground!!

We made our way to the playground – because those are some of my FAVORITE photos to take!!

As usual – the last photos in our session are usually my absolute FAVORITE photos!!

Angie – thank you so much for hanging out with me!! I can’t wait to see you again next year!!

I love seeing Angie & her family each year!! I can’t believe I’ve been photographing them for almost FIVE years!!

She is SO adorable!!

We had NO idea that he was going to attempt a swing!! But that little sister is stronger than she looks!!

We met at His Thousand Hills – it holds a special place in their lives!!

Remember – I LOVE reflections!! This was PERFECTION!!

Jeff & Sherry strive to place Jesus at the center of their lives & relationship – so this shot was SO BEAUTIFUL!

Jeff & Sherry wanted to REALLY get in the spirit for their Christmas cards this year – so Santa made a little visit!!

Jeff & Sherry – thank you SO MUCH for spending the evening with me! I had a GREAT time!!

Sherry messaged me hoping to set a date for pictures for her & her husband in the fall! She got the perfect date in mid-October!

Don’t forget that the two of you are still worth photographing!! Don’t forget that it all started with YOUR connection & love!!

When your kids are out of the house with families of their own – I think it’s even MORE important to focus on what’s keeping you together!!

BEAUTIFUL!!

You KNOW I love a great silhouette!!

Have fun together! Laugh together! Celebrate together!!

GORGEOUS!!

I LOVE her smile!!

If you haven’t figured it out by now – I LOVE reflections!!

Carrie – the events of this year have been stressful – to say the least!

While I am so sad that you had to reschedule your original BIG celebration – I am so thankful that it worked out to be there for you on your wedding day!!

Thank you SO MUCH for asking me to spend the afternoon with you!!
