GORGEOUS!!

ADORABLE!!

That little guy was a VERY little guy the last time I took their photos!

That’s a SPECIAL bird!

Sometimes the sun isn’t in the right spot at the right time – but you can’t miss the moment!

They MIGHT look a little bit like mother & daughter!

7 years ago I met these kiddos & their parents wanted to recreate some shots from that day!

SISTERS!!

FRIENDS BECOME OUR CHOSEN FAMILY!

GIVE ME ALL THE SQUISHY BABIES!!

SQUISHY SQUISH!!

Kristi had one last thing to do before I left …

But I couldn’t keep up with her …

CUPCAKE SMASHED!!

Kristi & Patrick – THANK YOU SO MUCH for asking me to spend the afternoon with you!

BEST SURPRISE EVER!! I can’t WAIT to spend some time with you next week for a newlywed photos session!

I’ve NEVER been to an engagement party! And when I get to see faces I haven’t seen in years – it’s even better!!

I love that top shot – hair thrown back – a big laugh – childhood FREEDOM!!

THAT SWEET FACE!! THOSE CHEEKS!!

That last time I photographed her family – she wasn’t in it!

You KNOW how much I LOVE chubby babies – but did you know I also LOVE curly curls!?

She REALLY wanted to get OUT of that dress!!

Kristi messaged me about her upcoming engagement party – and was hoping I would be available! Thankfully – I was!

Their families and friends were gathered around – playing fun games – eating good food – drinking craft drinks. And a TOAST!

To the newly engaged couple!

“On behalf of Kristi & Patrick – thank you for coming to their engagement party! The question you get asked the most after you get engaged is – when are you getting married? DO YOU GUYS WANT TO GET MARRIED RIGHT NOW?!”

WHAT!! LET’S DO THIS!! SURPRISE!!

She’s got his ring READY!!

MARRIED!!

I LOVE THAT SHOT! Checking out his wedding ring!

Kristi had a special gift for Patrick’s daughters!

Kristi told me to just come and do my thing – cus she loves my thing. THIS IS MY THING!!

MOMENTS LIKE THESE!!

A change of clothes and a new necklace!! Today I tell your dad I do and I promise to love you forever too! BEAUTIFUL!!

I’ll post the rest of the afternoon tomorrow!!

HIGH SCHOOL SWEETHEARTS!!

CLASS OF 2019!!

Amy – Allison – Addison – John – Roch – Ian – Kylie – Mary – THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

I’ve had such a GREAT time photographing you this summer!! I hope to see you again throughout the year!!

Amy & I have been trying to fit in our final senior session – but with rain & work schedules & football schedules & school – you get the picture …

There was a day that Mansfield didn’t have school recently – but my boys did. It was overcast and chilly – and at a moment’s notice – they were ready!

This is Mary.

Those are her brothers.

I’m pretty sure they are her BIGGER but younger brothers!

When Amy messaged me about having senior photos for her kids – I was a bit confused. How many kids do you have that are graduating this year?!

Well – Allison is graduating & then she has a younger daughter. But Allison’s boyfriend is graduating and then John & Roch are part of the crew! Kylie and Mary too!

AMY!! You have such an amazing heart!

After our last session together – that one in the creek – Amy was diagnosed with breast cancer. She is fighting hard and these kiddos are right by her side.

Make sure to tune in tomorrow for the rest of their session!

Courtney messaged me and said – I’ve been wanting to get photos done with you for a LONG time!

It’s our FIVE year wedding anniversary and we would LOVE to schedule a session!

She’s another referral from Arica & Stephanie! THANK YOU!!

SWOON!!

I LOVE THAT SHOT!!

I always encourage couples to bring at least two outfits – and usually save your favorite for LAST!

GORGEOUS!!

Cuddling your with your husband in an open field during sunset – PERFECTION!!

Courtney & Dave – thank you SO much for hanging out with me! I can’t WAIT to see you again!!

I’ve been photographing Amy’s family for the past 14 YEARS!!

When I met Amy – her oldest was only 6 months old. And now – well – she’s a little older than that!

This time it was HER side of the family! It’s been a few years since they were all together for a photo session!

The twins have been recreating the sweetest kissing photo since they were toddlers – but – we knew it would come to an end someday!

We compromised!

COUSINS!!

SISTERS!!

AMY!! Thank you! It was so great to see you ALL again!!
