When I pulled up to our session – I saw this puddle and WHOA! I KNEW I had to use that beautiful light in SOME way!
Isn’t he ADORABLE?!
By the time you read this – he will have been promoted to BIG brother!
You KNOW I love a GREAT lifestyle session!!
LOVE LOVE LOVE those shots!!
Melissa – thank you SO MUCH for asking me to photograph your sweet family!
Since I’m behind on my blog – this little family has grown by one sweet little girl since I took these!!
I met Melissa YEARS ago! I took her wedding photos and family photos through the years – but I don’t think I’ve taken the WHOLE *S* side of the family!
Pictures will NEVER do this place justice!
Their little guy wanted NOTHING to do with pictures – ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!
But this little sweetie – couldn’t get ENOUGH of the camera!
FUN grandparents are the BEST grandparents! Those shots are some of my FAVORITE shots EVER!!
Melissa – thank you for asking me to capture you and yours!!
I LOVE sessions with Cindy and her family!
I LOVE watching who they are and what they do!
Fitzy and this little guy go to school together – he’s such a fun kiddo!
MY FAVORITE SESSIONS!!
OH MY HEART!! This guy and his little sister – PERFECTION!
BLACK & WHITE will ALWAYS BE MY FAVORITE!
It was STILL windy!!
And that little tot lost a shoe – but but some miraculous miracle – it was found!!
Momma – I picked these flowers for you – because they’re pretty – like you momma.
I can’t tell you how many times he did this during our session!
That little girl – I WILL get a smile out of her – I WILL – SOMEDAY!
A daughter – a sweet daughter – I LOVE that relationship!
I LOVE THAT CRINKLED NOSE!
OH MY WORD! I absolutely LOVE THAT SHOT! SO MUCH SO – that I gave you a glance in black & white AND color!!
Such a sweet moment – the ones I LOVE the most!
Getting a tween boy to smile it ALMOST impossible! ALMOST!!
Cindy & Scott – THANK YOU – thank you for trusting my vision and stepping in front of my camera again and again!
Thank you for showing us the heart of Jesus through your family!
I met with Todd & Sara on that same WINDY afternoon – but they were all troopers!
This little guy – he’s Fitzy’s best friend – and completely ADORABLE!
These guys – they LOVE their NERF gun wars!
Sara & Todd – thank you SO much for asking me to take your photos year after year!
Jillian and her family met me for a quick mini-session – on a VERY windy afternoon!
Again with those sweet baby eyes and black & white photos – some of my favorite things!
This guy – Jillian’s son – he reminds me SO VERY MUCH of that Fitzy guy of mine!
ADORABLE!
Their little brother – the three best friends that anyone could have!
Aren’t they such a BEAUTIFUL family?!
Jillian – thank you SO MUCH! I can’t WAIT to see you all again!!
Amanda and her family – I just LOVE them!
Isn’t he ADORABLE!
And this little girl – she is HILARIOUS and so very sweet! She is always SO VERY HAPPY to see me!!
THOSE BABY BLUES!!
THAT SWEET FACE!
Amanda – thank you so much – I LOVE that you’ll be part of my schedule for years to come!
Heather and her family – I LOVE seeing them every year!
We went back to the same spot we did last year – BECAUSE IT’S GORGEOUS!
Isn’t he so sweet! This guy – I remember his hair when he was a baby – it was LUXURIOUS!
Heather – thank you SO MUCH! I love our treks!
AND – I LOVE getting your gorgeous Christmas cards with these photos on them!
SEE YOU NEXT YEAR!
Little *A* turned ONE! ONE! Again – WAY TOO FAST!
And that momma – Joy – I’ve watched her grow up – and it went WAY TOO FAST!
OH MY HEART! THAT SUN! THAT FACE!
LOVE LOVE LOVE!
THAT LAST SHOT! ADORE!!
Joy – thank you thank you THANK YOU! I am so honored to capture your family and your life!
We went to the Iron Kettle Pumpkin Farm while my sister was home!
When we were little – we made the trip every year with our cousins!
Those guys – they’re ADORABLE!!
You might notice that Fitzy didn’t come with us – he would rather stay home with his G!
We were told that the donuts did NOT have milk in them – but later – we found out they did – super sad.
Thankfully – Enoch’s allergy is not life-threatening – gives him a tummy-ache for a few days – BUT – lesson learned – ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS check the label and sometimes even then – it might not be right!
Just in case you think that every outing is sunshine and rainbows – it’s really not! This one is a runner!
THAT CRAZY FACE!
That little guy and that GIANT cookie!
Sometimes – I get really sad that our guys can’t grow up together – BUT – these moments – they make me happy!
I LOVE photographing Autumn and her growing family every year!
And I LOVE LOVE LOVE a moody black & white!
A YEAR – A WHOLE YEAR – it goes so very fast! It seems like I was JUST taking his newborn photos!
And really – let’s be totally honest here – THIS is how sessions typically go!
Which is why I LOVE lifestyle sessions – because THIS is real life!
Again – really real life! And what does it come down to? He wanted what he wanted when he couldn’t have it!
Which is really the issue with ALL OF US! We want what WE want when we can’t have it.
OH MY HEART! ADORABLE!
AHHHHH!!!
Those sweet brothers – BEST FRIENDS!
Autumn – thank you SO MUCH for asking me to photograph your family year after year!
