Natalie and her little guy stopped by for my Christmas minis!

Isn’t he BEAUTIFUL! Natalie – thank you SO much for stopping by!

Nicole is a strong strong momma. I was so thankful to get to see her and hug her and her babes.

I ADORE that shot! Absolutely beautiful!

Nicole – I LOVE YOU. I’ll see you soon!

I met Emily and her sweet family when I took newborn photos of her little guy *H*!

I couldn’t believe it was time for his 6 month session already!

We met on a chilly November afternoon – but wanted to try for some outdoor shots!

I LOVE those!!

Emily – thank you SO much for asking me to photograph your family! I cannot WAIT to see you guys in May!

I met Leslie at the Arnot Mall Bridal Expo – several years ago – we’ve stayed in touch through facebook!

She was actually one of the 5 women that started our prayer list for mommas wanting babies. Her oldest – *C* – was the second of those five sweet miracles to be born!

And now – I’ve photographed all 5 of them!

She brought down her sweet girls for a Christmas mini session!

DIVINE!

OH MY WORD!

That last shot – absolute PERFECTION!

Leslie – thank you so much for bringing your girls down! It was GREAT to see you again!

Mark is our new pastor at Church of the New Covenant! I was so excited to take pictures for his family during my mini sessions!

Such a BEAUTIFUL family! Thank you SO much for coming out!

I said earlier that Jared’s parents came to my parents for Thanksgiving. And it’s indeed a BEAUTIFUL thing.

I am SO very thankful that Jared has become truly a part of my family and the same for me with his.

It’s wonderful to celebrate together. No jealousies. No arguments. Family. Truly family.

Fitzy – with both his grandmothers – AWESOME!

Just remember – your parents are just as excited to become grandparents – just as excited as you are to hold your little babies.

I am SO thankful for the relationship that our kids have with their grandparents!

Chelsie wanted to get a few shots of her sweet boy with his cousins – they were all ADORABLE!

I took photos of *R* when she was just a little ONE year old! (Bridget Reed (who did our birth photos) is their photographer and she was on maternity leave when *R* was turning ONE – so I filled in!)

Thanks for asking me capture a few shots of your sweet little ones!

I love taking yearly pictures for families! These sisters never disappoint!

See you girls next year!

I held Christmas mini sessions in my backyard – thankfully we got a reasonably mild day!

My BFF Johna and her sister brought their daughters!

Of course – Fitzy had to get in the picture with his favorite friend *M*!

Aren’t they GORGEOUS!

I love you all DEARLY!

Missy referred Dusty and her family to me – and we were able to book a session in the beginning of November – and thankfully – it wasn’t TOO cold!

GORGEOUS!

Dusty – thank you SO much for bringing your family up! I hope to see you guys again!
