I’ve been taking pictures of Missy and her family for several years now! I’ve lost count on exactly how many!

ADORABLE!

I LOVE spending time with your family! CANNOT WAIT for next year!

Amy asked me about family photos – since they’ve NEVER had them done!

Aren’t they ADORABLE!

OH – that SWEET LITTLE POUT!

I absolutely ADORE silhouette shots!

Amy – you guys were so great to work with! It was chillier than the ideal – but you and your family were champs!

I hope to work with you again!

I was SO excited to photograph Wynn and her family!

ABSOLUTELY DARLING!

Wynn & Jason – thank you SO much for asking me to capture your family!

I met Sara and her sweet family last year for their first session! This year we met up for a mini session!

Next year – our little guys will be in Kindergarten together! YAY!

I’ve taken pictures of the *M* family for a few years now!

And I JUST realized that we could be trading photos for PIZZA! (They own the best restaurant in town – Papa V’s)

When the situation calls for it – I will barter services – it’s a WIN WIN all around!

You guys are THE BEST! See you next year!

I went to high school with Melissa’s older sister – we’ve stayed in touch and I did their family photos a few years ago!

They’ve since added a little guy to the mix!

I ABSOLUTELY adore that black & white shot!

It was a cold and windy day – but that sweet little guy was a GEM!

Thank you again!

It’s been at least 3 years since I last photographed the *H* family! I was SO excited to spend the afternoon capturing them again!

LOVE LOVE LOVE!

You guys were AWESOME! Until next time!

Last year – Virginia took some family photos for us! WE LOVED THEM!

We traded sessions this year – and it was a BEAUTIFUL afternoon!

LOVE LOVE LOVE those shots!

Thank so much for meeting up with us – next time we swap – you’ll have a bouncing baby boy about to turn ONE! AHHH!

Janelle needed some new photos to represent her BEAUTIFUL jewelry!

GORGEOUS!!

If you’re looking for some gorgeous jewelry – let me know – I’ll get you in contact with Janelle!

It’s time for BEAUTIFUL again! This is the 7th year I’ve ran this contest – and I LOVE IT!

I will be awarding 1 family a photo session!

Email me @ dcbarden@gmail.com – write a paragraph or two about a family you know that deserves a FREE photo session.

I will be choosing 1 family from the entries and announce the winner on March 1st. The deadline for the submissions will be February 29th. I need to hear from 10 people to make this contest work!!

Make sure to tell me WHAT MAKES THEIR FAMILY BEAUTIFUL.

YOU CANNOT SUBMIT YOUR OWN FAMILY 

If you were a previous beautiful winner – you can’t win again – sorry bout that!

Also – you MUST use the photo session within 2016!
