I’ve been taking pictures of these girls – since *E* was 6 months old!

They were some of my earliest subjects when I decided to become a full-time photographer!

We always have to get that serious shot!

Even their new puppy is a girl! Their dad is completely SURROUNDED!

And we always need a shot of the twins!

I will never forget when Amy told us she was having twins!

I worked next to her almost all day – and when she found out she was pregnant with them – she was SO sick! And I said – well – maybe it’s twins!!

If looks could kill! Well – it came time for an ultrasound – and sure enough – not one baby! TWO!

She slammed the photo down on the counter and said LOOK AT THAT! We were all shocked!

Amy – thank you for asking me to capture them as the years go by – it’s such a joy to watch them grow into beautiful young women – as painful as it might be in affirming MY age!

Little *A* was such a sleepy newborn! And if you’ve followed me for any length of time – you will know that I can’t get my own babies to sleep – so getting a baby that isn’t my own to sleep for me – impossible!

Well – she did end up sleeping – eventually!

Aren’t those PRECIOUS!

Some of my FAVORITE newborn shots!!

Posed newborn shots are NOT my specialty – so these shots were a pleasant surprise!

Jenna – thank you SO MUCH for asking me to capture your little sweetheart! I can’t wait to see you guys again!

Ericka is one of my dearest friends! We’ve been praying for a baby in her arms for several years!

And like most things in life – they come in their own time – when you least expect it!

It’s a GIRL!

Another sweet girl!

Ericka – you are strong. You are beautiful. You are loved. I cannot WAIT to see this baby’s face! I LOVE YOU!

Little *C* certainly isn’t lacking for love in this family!

THE SWEETEST!

Pearls and bows and pink!

And baby rolls!

Lyndsay – I have LOVED seeing your family this year! It’s certainly FLOWN by!

We’ve made it a yearly tradition to get photos of the cousins!

This time – 4 VERY active little boys – but I’m always up for the challenge!

BROTHERS!

ADORABLE!

And next year – there will be another little boy to add to the mix! And one baby girl!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Isn’t she SO darling!

Big brother needs in on the fun too!

Kelly & Dane – she is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Thank you SO much for having me over! I can’t wait to see you SOON!

Kelly & Dane are such amazing people!

I’m so thankful that what started out as “can you take our pictures” turned into a great friendship!

Sometimes a mini-session is all you need!

Stay tuned for their newborn session!

Aren’t they a BEAUTIFUL family!!!

A big brother and two little sisters!

Lauren – thank you so much for asking me to continue capturing your family! It’s so rewarding when clients become friends!

This little girl – she is SO loved! Her momma has been dreaming about this moment for YEARS!

Isn’t she such a little pumpkin!!

SO SWEET!!

You might remember this momma from a recent blog featuring her wedding!

Joy – it’s so exciting watching you with your little dream! You are such a great momma!

Thank you SO MUCH for writing to me about the people you LOVE!

As always – it was hard to choose a family!

I also want to remind you to tell the people that you think so highly of EXACTLY HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT THEM!

A few years ago – Shalane wrote to me about Evelyn – she didn’t win at the time.

Shalane wrote to me about Evelyn again this year – and the love for her friend just SPILLED over through her email!

SO – Evelyn – your family is the WINNER this year! Evelyn submitted a family that won a few years ago!

Your friendship is inspiring!

THIS YEAR MAY HAVE BEEN THE HARDEST YET!

If you submitted a family – but they weren’t the winner – check your email for a limited time offer regarding a session for that family!

ALSO – AS PROMISED – the winner of the LuLaRoe by Samantha Caamano legging drawing is … Veronica Gulliver!!

THANK YOU AGAIN SO MUCH FOR supporting this little business of mine!

BE THE LIGHT – THROW KINDNESS AROUND LIKE CONFETTI!
