I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. There is so much to be thankful for. I sometimes forget or overlook how truly lucky we are. One of the things I’m thankful for is being able to do something that I love. I love photography and I love getting to meet so many people. I’ve always loved kids and I’m so lucky to be able to get to know kiddos and their families. And a lot of times to grow with the families. There are quite a few who didn’t have kids or only had one who now have many:) So, a big THANKS to my clients.

And here is the “H” family. We decided to do their shoot at their home and it worked out perfect. Their kids are super duper adorable. It had been months since the last shoot that we did and their little guy had grown quite a bit, has a lot more hair (and it’s gorgeous) and is quite the happy perfect-posing baby.

Another sweet little girl to make this a family of five. And I could immediately tell how much she is adored by them.
She gave us a few smiles…

Such gorgeous, smiley kids. Love their rides! The cars are pretty cool because they can drive them or their parents can use a remote control. Wish I had had these a few years ago.

I know I’ve mentioned (as I do every year at this time…Ha!) that I’m behind so tonight I’m doing a little blog sneak peek catching up. Thanks for being patient everyone!!

If you’ve followed my blog then you’ve seen these guys before. I hadn’t seen them since the urban sessions last year so I was excited to hear from them! These kids are absolutely adorable and it was cute to watch them play and interact with each other. Just look at how cute they are….

Here are the holiday card choices for this year:

PRICING:
5×7 flat card $38
5×5 Trifold $50
5×7 Boutique card (Luxe) $48

Each set comes with 25 cards and 25 envelopes.

A new baby sister for Mr. D, the little boy from the train pictures a few weeks ago. She was absolutely adorable and gave me quite the newborn eye contact!

Another session where the mosquitoes were so, so bad! They were so bad that they literally ran us indoors! We took a few pics indoors, sprayed with bug spray and ventured out for some park pictures. These brothers were such troopers. I mean what brothers really want to hug each other, hold hands or put their faces close together. I imagine not many boys want to do that but everything that I asked them to do they were good sports about. Thanks guys!! Hope you enjoy your sneak peek:)

I feel so privileged to get to watch this wonderful family grow and it’s funny because I feel like we’ve come full circle. I think it was the 2nd time that I met up with them (maybe even the first time and Mr. Speedy was super little) I had to take my kids with me for some reason. Shouldn’t be too much of a problem because Mackenzie, my oldest, could hang out with and keep the other two busy. Lo and behold my girls ran to me screaming that Drew had pulled down his pants and had gone potty on the ground. He was little and I don’t think he’d ever done that. I was beyond mortified!! Also, the girls had been in school all day and we left as soon as they got home without changing or brushing their hair and they looked a little “rough”. So, my 3 probably seemed like a small group of heathens to this family. Well, while we were at the session this year, and coincidentally we were at the same location now years later, their youngest had to go to the restroom. Not having a restroom available they had him go by a tree and I reminded them of what had happened there years before when I barely knew them. It seemed like deja vu!

Mr. Speedy will also be getting a little sister soon. Now mom won’t be totally outnumbered. I can’t wait to meet her:)

And their baby just happens to be an amazingly pristine classic car. Isn’t it gorgeous?

When I did Mr. C’s pictures last year it seemed super easy….too easy. Did I think it would be that easy again? No, but a photographer can hope, right?! Anyways, he now moves at a superhuman warp speed. A speed that seemed almost impossible to keep up with. I think we tried everything in the book! So what if he has a sucker in some of the pictures with his sister?? Luckily, there were some tree branches that he was content hanging around in and that at least kept him in one place.
He now has a precious baby sister that has the most adorable little grin. Meet Mr. C and his sister, Miss D.
