GAH!!! THAT ONE TOO!!
PLEASE bring grandma with you to your session!!

OH!! Also – bring those auntie’s along – they’re SO special!!
ONE MORE post of this happy girl & her lovely family!!
I met Steve & Casey last year when they asked me to photograph their new little girl!
This year – Casey brought her mom & sister along too!!
We met on a chilly October morning – but they were able to bundle up and stay warm!!
LOOK AT THAT SWEET FACE!!
OH MY HEART!!! HOW ADORABLE!
THE SWEETEST!!
DARLING!!
Stay tuned – because I took LOTS of this sweet family!!!
Flowers MIGHT have been the thing to turn that little guy around!!
It was getting dark – but I needed just a FEW more shots!!
This guy was FINALLY ready to give me his attention & a SMILE!!
Miranda – thank you SO MUCH for making the trip to Mansfield!! I hope we see each other again BEFORE next year’s photo session!!!
I’ve been taking photos for Miranda & Brooks for a LONG time now!
She saw THE hill in Mansfield & said – CAN WE SCHEDULE OUR SESSION THERE!?
It was a cloudy evening – I’m so happy we were ON TOP of the world!!
That littlest brother – he really didn’t want his picture taken. But we waited & gave him time!
I MIGHT have mentioned that my mom likes to tickle me until I pee!!
That brought out a little smile!!
Miranda really wanted some silhouette shots!! Cloudy conditions make it a little harder – but we were able to manage a few!
A sweet moment!!
He’s got the hiding down really well!!
Stay tuned for the rest of their session!!
Ericka & I met a LONG time ago!! Her daughter will be TEN this month – TEN!!! I can’t even believe it!?
When said daughter was just a little tot – I took her her photos. I brought my sister with me to watch Fitzy.
As fate would have it – Ericka & my sister are now really great friends!!
Ericka is a single mom – and can I tell you – it’s HARD. I don’t know know from experience. But man – it’s hard.
And she is getting up every day and loving her girls. She is awesome. Amazing. Strong.
I ADORE THAT SHOT!!
Ericka – I already said it – but you are amazing. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!! You and those sweet girls!!
