Grandparents and their grandchildren – a bond like no other!

Extended family pictures used to intimidate me – but I LOVE them now!

I know it’s cheesy – but just think – because these two people said YES to each other! It’s crazy when you think about it!

I assure you – no fathers were harmed in the making of this photograph!

Jenna and her little crew have been faithful clients for the past – what – FIVE years? Probably longer than that!

Jenna – thank you for asking me to capture your ENTIRE family! We need to get “your” side done soon!!

Also – Jenna is a LULAROE consultant! If you don’t know what LULAROE is – you’ve been warned if you choose to investigate!

Make sure to head on over to FACEBOOK and join her LULAROE group!

The problem with putting off blogging – I forget what the sessions were about – sometimes!

Nicole – is *A* TWO here! That just doesn’t seem possible to me – but I think she is! TWO right?!

FAMILY – they come in all shapes and sizes! And this one in particular – they are survivors!

Nicole – WE LOVE YOU!

Don’t you just LOVE that field! PERFECTION!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE those shots!

Kristina – you are ALWAYS the first to say hello! You are helpful and kind. You are generous and comforting!

I loved working with you! I can’t wait to see where life takes you after graduation! Whatever you do – do it with everything you have!

I photographed *F* while she was in her momma’s belly and had the joy of photographing her birth too!

She will be TWO this summer – it was hard enough to believe that she was turning ONE!

I ADORE those shots!

Kelly – thank you SO much for trusting me with these memories for your family!

I love photographing families over and over again – seeing the changes in 6 months or a year! It’s so rewarding! Faith & Luke – you guys bring such a smile to my face when I come see you!

I first photographed their family when their little guy *M* was brand new!

And then I got to photograph little *C* as a brand new baby!

Tiny baby legs. Little pouty lips. Miracles.

Momma and her babies!

Faith & Luke – thank you for trusting me with your memories! I LOVE YOU GUYS!

This little guy reminds me SO MUCH of my Enoch!

*D* – you are such a sweet happy little guy! I love photographing your sweet family!

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!

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!

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!!

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!!!!
