Here are a few favorites from today!  Such a sweet family and a perfect little addition!  Enjoy your peak :)

 

Back to work!

After a lovely holiday with family and friends, I am back to work!  Here are a few from today's family--isn't she sweet!?!  3 months old--notice the hands in both pictures!  

Happy Thanksgiving!

Here is my last session before the holiday!  So much fun they were...Mom and Dad should be very proud...and if you could email me your secret to raising amazing kids, that would be great!  Enjoy your peak.  

Pretty in Pink

She was celebrating her 1st birthday today!  I love all the pink!

And here is her handsome big brother...just waiting for this nonsense to be over.  :)  

Chick Fillet and Halloween candy!

This is what they got after being very good boys!   Whatever works, right!?  

Naughty or Nice...

I am thinking nice...look at this sweet face.  He is 6 months old already and such a sweet boy. Hope this picture makes everyone smile!!  

Happy Anniversary!

Today is this couples 3rd Anniversary!  In honor of that--I had to post this picture!  What a great picture to remember the day!  Congrats guys!  Once again...it was fun.  

36 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS!!!

Please get your holiday orders in SOON!  Just a friendly reminder!  Holiday cards, canvas wraps and other speciality items will take a little longer...my lab and the post office will start getting backed up soon, so the sooner the better.  Happy Shopping!  

Great start to my week!

I had a wonderful morning with these 2 today!  This little girl is 8 weeks old!  She smiled every time I made my funny noise  (sometimes it works--sometimes not so much)  Glad it worked today!  

Check him out in his little jacket!  We talked trucks and cars and trains...and all the things that Santa will be bringing him this year.  How handsome is he??
Thanks again!  Enjoy your preview!

The BEST kids in the world!

Okay, so their Mom paid me to say that...but just look at how sweet and innocent they are! This is the beauty of photographs, you can remember them how they really are--not how they were for the 5 minutes they were driving you crazy!

The many hats of Little L!

I have said it before and I will say it again---I LOVE HATS!!!

The Happy Dance

Well, that is what I did when I saw this first picture....LOOK AT THOSE EYES!!!  So incredibly precious she is.  

6 month photo session.

You know it will be a good session when...

they eat, burp, and poop right before I get there!  And that is exactly what this guy did--nice work little man!  enjoy mom :)

My little friend

Meet my little friend.  I have taken her picture every 3 months since she was born.   She gets cuter every time I see her, if that is even possible...today we celebrated her being 9 months old!

Our little secret

Let's just say, it is our little secret--how we go 2 toddlers and a dog to sit together!  It was effortless...really!

Troopers!

You would never know it was FREEZING cold yesterday looking at these pictures--these two were total troopers!  A special thanks to Dad and Uncle Matt for leaving a big pile of leaves for us!  Actually, thanks to Mom for making them leave the big pile of leaves for us :)

Remember...I am a Mom too!

I thought this title was important and a good way to remind people that I am also a mother...so when you are running a little late because of traffic--I understand.  When your child pees in the garage...I understand.  When you just want them to behave and smile pretty for the camera-just once!...I understand.  When your friend brings you a bottle of wine because of how stressful it can be to get 4 kids ready for their pictures...I understand.  And will you look at how cute these pictures turned out!!!  We did it.  

bridget. class of 2009.

The first time I met her, she was 9 months old.  The last time I saw her, she was 5.  And thanks to my photography, I got to see her again!  She is now a senior at Webster High School and I got to take her senior pictures today.  OMG is she beautiful...stunning.  I had so much fun getting to know her again.  Thank you Bridget and Nancy--it was so much fun.  H0pe you enjoy your sneak peak!

Sunday afternoon...

I love sun glare.  This was around 4:00 yesterday when the sun was starting to go down...what beautiful days we are having and some beautiful children to go with it.

This cracks me up.  Her mom and I were laughing when she walked to this spot and did this pose and just looked at me...like, Ok, I am ready now-take my picture.  :)
This picture was a rare moment--I was actually taking her sisters picture in the grass and she was waiting for me--I looked over and she was laying like this and snapped the pic.  I love how the best pictures are the unexpected ones.
And then there was "T".  He is almost one and holds his own in a family of  girls!  He is so proud in his wagon with his big boy haircut.  

Just as they are...

One thing I loved about this mornings session, it was as if I just dropped by on any given Sunday morning and this is how I found them.  Natural and totally themselves---wearing clothes you would find them in on any day...and at the end of the session they got to wear their soccer uniforms.  I love that.  I love photographing kids exactly as they are today--and being able to look back on these pictures and remembering them that way.  Not in a stuffy outfit, no fancy shoes...but just as they are.  I love that.
