We have been trying to do this photo shoot for a year. They knew that they wanted it at their bay house in Galveston and just when we were going to meet Hurricane Ike happened. And they had damage. They showed us where the water line had come to and it is just unbelievable! She contacted me again recently and said that they had rebuilt and were ready. I ended up not feeling well the day before our scheduled time but I was not about the re-schedule again. I felt better the day of the shoot, just really tired…so Chad went with me to be the chauffeur/assistant (which is kinda cool…I can boss him around and he has to do it). I’m so glad we were finally able to meet in person. They are a really sweet family and I loved catching some fun shots.

Hope you enjoy your peek:)

They drove up with a vehicle full of fun props that would help keep him entertained. And I was amazed at all the large stuffed zoo animals. That’s the theme of his room and I can just imagine how cool it is.

Enjoy the peek:)

Here’s my gorgeous senior rep for the new high school in our town.

I’m not feeling too hot right now but I wanted to get these up before I head back to bed. Hope everyone enjoys their long weekend.

Working on these pictures makes me smile. These kiddos belong to my sister-in-law’s best friend, Kristen. She and I both got a good workout…we withstood the heat and the ants (poor Grant) and did everything under the sun to get some good pictures.

They are all under the age of 4 (almost 5) and extremely fast and fun-loving! Even though I was exhausted I couldn’t help but be entertained the entire time. They were so funny that I just have to include a collage of outtake shots. I especially love the shot of Rowan (smallest one) where it looks like she’s giving me the finger. Actually, she probably was. She is the typical 3rd baby that just goes with the flow but by this point she had most likely figured out that I was the one that was keeping her from a nap and being put in all kinds of crazy positions that allowed her brother and sister to harass her.

I hope you enjoy these Kristen:) I really had a lot of fun!

Here’s my first 2010 senior. I talked to her mom and suggested downtown for the shoot and she was game. I think it was perfect for Miss Sam. She loves the hustle and bustle of the city life and really got into the whole shoot. We had a blast finding new locations although I did almost get ran over by a crazy driver that took a corner waaayyy tooooo fast.

Hope you love them Sam:) And I hope you’re having a great time at your new high school.

I can’t decide if I like his smile or his intent stare better? I always LOVE eye contact and he gave me a lot. And when he smiled it would just light up his eyes and show his little teeth. He’s adorable! I really hope you like your peek:)

Aaahhhh, school is a good thing for my sanity today. I’m tired as heck….couldn’t go to sleep early last night because I’m so used to working on the computer until 2:00 or 3:00 in the morning but I think after a couple of days of this and I’ll readjust. So, the fact is that Drew spent a LOT of summer time aggravating his sisters. So far this morning he has been so pleasant. No one to aggravate (well, except for Cosmo a little bit). He’s been setting up his drum area, a baby area, and a bowling area in our living room. But I’ll take the mess over squealing sisters today. Maybe I’ll miss it in a couple of days but today I’m going to just enjoy:)

I loved working with this mom and her daughter. We were able to get some great poses of them together. We also did a couple of her 9-yr-old by herself and that’s when she really started coming out of her shell. She’s going to be a great big sister.

You may recognize this little cutie from some previous blog posts. In the past I’ve included some pictures that he was in with his mom and dad and this time Mr. Adorable had some pictures done with his 2 aunts. Aunts that totally adore him I might add. When his aunt contacted me about the photo shoot I thought that was the coolest thing that they wanted to do pictures with their nephew. He’s definitely surrounded by people that love him.

Hope you enjoy:)

She is the quickest and most articulate little girl ever. We were doing her 2-year-old pictures and she had me so entertained. I showed my husband pictures of her and we laughed because in almost all of the pictures you can tell that she’s running…and usually away from me. She even told me “no more pictures” more than once. I love the fact though that if she wasn’t running away from me then she was giving me eye contact (which is my favorite thing). If you look up at my blog header collage of pictures she’s the one on the left squaring off with the horse. That was from her 1-yr pictures. She has changed soooo much in one year.

I really hope you guys enjoy the sneak peek:) It was great seeing you again!
