Holiday Photos v 2.0

Yesterday I had a great time at the holiday photo shoot for this adorable little one. I was thrilled to get to take her photos again this year, and it has been fun comparing this batch to what we captured last year. She has grown so much, yet is still as cute as ever! She certainly was "on the go" and chatty, but that makes it even more fun.

Here is your sneak peek. Hope this tides you over while I get the rest ready for viewing. ..

Hiatus is over with a fun family shoot

I have been on a bit of a break, but no more! We are heading into the holiday season and I was lucky to get to kick it off with a shoot with this adorable family.


The youngest member of the fam is this 17 month-old cutie. Don't you just love his big eyes?


And then there is the older sis...she is a total sweetheart with the perfect amount of spunk.


Thanks so much for allowing me to take your family photos. It is a real privilege. I have to end with this "typical" shot. It might not be "perfect" but when is life? This is so REAL. I am envisioning it on the back of a Christmas card...can't you just imagine how perfect that would be??

9 Month Family Tradition

We had a 3rd generation tradition in the works Saturday during our photo shoot; a 9month portrait was the goal. I think we were able to get a few contenders for the family photo wall. (As well as a couple great shots with Mom.)

Silas was so sweet and had me cracking up. The number of different expressions he gave me were a riot. (I think he thought the lady behind the camera was crazy.) He is such an adorable little guy! Thanks for letting me take his photo. :) Here is a peek at a few, while I continue working on the rest.

Family Fun!

2 grandparents + 2 sisters + 2 husbands + 3 cousins = FUN! (minus the humidity we had to deal with, but who's counting, right? ;-)) I was so pleased to get to capture such a wonderful family. You never know how a large group with young kids is going to go, but this shoot was definitely a success. I still have tons of photos to get through, but I don't want to keep this family waiting any longer for a little sneak peek. I hope this satisfies the curiosity.

The Family of Four

The weekend started off well with a successful family photo shoot. The great location and the much appreciated cloud cover were added bonuses. I think they are a lovely family and the newest addition is such a cutie! Here is a preview of what we got. Enjoy!

The new kid on the block

Joshua is 3 weeks old -- and such a cutie. He was a very willing subject for his first photo shoot. Got some open eyed shots and then he promptly went to sleep. What a good boy! His parents are so lucky. :)

Back from Vacation

I am back from vacation and ready to go. It was nice to have a little break, but I am excited about my upcoming photo shoots. While in Washington, I did take the opportunity to get some portraits of my own 3 year old, Amelia, in a place that was a little greener than home. I think we both had fun. (And she asked to wear that skirt the rest of our trip!)
