I absolutely adore this family. I’ve been photographing Mr. T since he was just two weeks old. Now he’s 14 months and cuter than EVER. His mom and dad are AWESOME and I enjoy every single time I get to work with them.

Enjoy the sneaky peak!

recognize this handsome guy??

Yup, he’s the winner of best photo of 2009. Kid sticking his tongue out, yup, this is him. Handsome little feller, isn’t he??!!!

LOVE this!!!

the expression and the COLORS!!! Love it!!!!

Beautiful family photo!!

I absolutely adore this family!!  We met up at Lake Sacajawea (a favorite location of mine) and had a family photo session for them.

I was so incredibly happy that we had the session on a day when the weather was perfect. Like right now it’s 60 degrees outside and sunny!

Oh how I’ve missed this beautiful weather. I can’t wait until I can start doing most of my sessions outside!!!

Thanks “H” family for a wonderful time. I hope you love your photos!!!

HEEELLLLLLOOOOO gorgeous family!!!

she’s quite the character. This is my favorite family shot!

I would LOVE if that middle photo was of my kids… simply perfect!!!

(did I mention how great these kids were?!!)

what a handsome young man

four!

FAVORITE!!!

I love these two people. Not only is Lindsey a great friend, she’s also my kid’s evening babysitter. She’s the one that cleans up my kids’ messes, feeds them, bathes them,  and keeps them happy  while I’m away working. She also makes me cookies and sends me home with chocolate to keep me sane. 😉

She’s been such a blessing to me and my family. My kids always look forward to going to her house and I of course adore her more than words can express. I’ve been doing mr. G’s photos since he was a newborn and I always look forward to our sessions. This was the first time Lindsey got involved and I hope she loves these photos as much as I do.

Thank you a billion times over for loving and caring for my kids.

Lindsey you are so beautiful!!

this makes me want to cry

(in a good way)

too cute for words

makes you want to pinch his cheeks, doesn’t it??!!

okay I’m sorry, but this was just too cute not to post.

These little girls were a hoot. (yes, I’m an owl now).

Other than being so completely adorable, they were fun to work with!!! Meet Miss M who is seven and Miss L who just turned one. Their mom wanted to make sure she captured this sweet time in her little girls’ lives. Thank you so much for choosing me to do their photos. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!!

LOVE this storyboard

Seven year olds are so much fun!! I hope her mama is prepared for all the boys that will be calling her in a few years….

Check out those sparkely eyes!!!

A perfect one year portrait!

This one is too funny not to share. She kept making this face over and over. I couldn’t help but take a photo.

I title it..

“I’m soooo gonna lose it right now if this stupid lady doesn’t stop making stupid animal sounds to get me to smile!!!!!”

Happy friday!

Here’s my attempt # 4,598 of trying to get a nice photo of the three of my children together. Of course them taking direction from their photographer mom is like herding cats into a pool.

So of course I tried to get them to sit still and these photos are what happened.

THIS is exactly how they are, just being kids.

It’s perfect.

somehow saying “okay kids, sit down right here” translates into “mom said I could jump on top of you”

notice how the baby is laughing at them thinking he’s in the clear

he was wrong

don’t worry, he was okay

sweet success!!!

Not technically perfect, but they are all looking and smiling.
