I LOVED photographing little *W* over the past FIRST year of his life!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE those shots!

Aren’t they ADORABLE!

Kara – thank you so much for allowing me the honor of photographing your family during the first year as a family of FOUR!

 

*N* FAMILY

I met Johna over TEN years ago – which is JUST CRAZY!

We hit it off right away – and while our lives have changed and we’ve grown apart in terms of actually seeing each other – but when we do connect – it’s real and awesome!

She and her husband have a little girl – *M* – and she’s such a sweet thing! Over the past year – they’ve opened their hearts and their homes to foster care – and it’s made such a profound impact on their lives! She wanted some pictures to remember their foster children – and while I can’t post them here – I assure you – they are DARLING!

Johna – I just LOVE you SO MUCH! I’m so thankful that 10 years ago – you applied for a job that CHANGED YOUR LIFE!

And I’m so proud of what you stand for. Positive change. Kindness. Freedom. Fun. Providing a voice for those little lives that can’t speak for themselves yet. YOU ARE SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SOUL!

COUSINS

It’s a rare occasion that these little cousins get to be ALL together – so we had to take advantage!

That very top picture is on my parents wall – in GIANT form! I firmly believe that you should almost always print HUGE!!

VANESSA & JAKE

My not-so-little cousin Vanessa needed some pictures with her boyfriend Jake – so they came up to the farm on a BEAUTIFUL summer day!

Stay tuned for their MATERNITY session!!!!

Katelyn took a chance and messaged me about her small wedding – needing just an hour of coverage!

I happen to offer wedding coverage by the hour – so it worked out great!

I love that FIRST SMILE after you get married!

AND THAT SHOT! OH MY HEART!

 

SO GORGEOUS!

THANK YOU! Thank you both for asking me to capture your wedding!

I LOVE seniors! I don’t do nearly as many as I used to – but the ones I do get – I just LOVE!

Alyson was so sweet and kind – I loved working with her!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE those shots!

Alyson – thank you so much for trusting my vision with your senior pictures! Whatever you do in life – do it with everything you have!

FITZY TURNS FIVE

Filed under: baby barden,bardenisms,family,just because,parties — admin at 12:50 pm on Saturday, January 14, 2017

Fitzy wanted to have a HUGE birthday party for his 5th birthday – so we said – YES!

We invited his preschool friends along with our usual family and friends – because we have a BIG fenced-in backyard!

AND. It rained. SO – we stayed inside. Now – our house is big enough – but it was CRAZY that day!

My sister – she’s AMAZING!

Fitzy specifically requested STAR WARS cookies! And she delivered!

SO MANY PEOPLE!

Little Fitzy – you are such a sweet heart! It’s so bittersweet watching you grow up – but you are becoming such an amazing little person!

WE LOVE YOU!

*V* – 6 MONTHS

Little *V* – such a sweet guy!

Look at those CHEEKS!!!!!

OH MY WORD!!! Those chubby arms!

SUCH A SWEET FACE!

Katie & Chris – thank you so much for asking me to capture this time of your lives!

I’ll see you soon – for ONE YEAR photos! CRAZY!

 

ANNA – JUST BECAUSE

Filed under: family,just because,portraits — admin at 12:51 pm on Thursday, January 12, 2017

Anna is my cousin Leslie’s daughter – so I always forget – does that make her my second cousin or my first cousin twice removed? Or is it once removed – either way – she’s a fellow geek and is such a beautiful girl!

We had LOTS of fun with my wigs!

My sweet grandmother and my daring and darling Uncle Bob!

Anna – I had SO MUCH fun hanging out with you! Can’t wait to see you again!

*L* TURNS TWO

Filed under: just because,kiddos,portraits — admin at 5:34 pm on Wednesday, January 11, 2017

*L* is such a BEAUTIFUL little dumpling!

We met up in February – NEARLY A YEAR AGO – at the PA Welcome Center for her two year session – needless to say – she was NOT feeling it!

Look at that – ONE smile!

MY WORD! Those big fat tears!

Those giant eyes! Sweet girl – you remind me so much of our little E!

We called it a day and rescheduled for April – hoping for warmer weather!

Hopefully you’ll see her rescheduled session MUCH sooner than a year from now!
