Some of my “regulars”…whom I adore. I was super excited to see Mr. Speedy(their oldest) because he is always super animated and fun. I also couldn’t wait to see how much his little brother had changed since the new baby photo shoot. They had both changed! Enjoy your peek:)
There are so many adjectives I could attach to this sweet girl: busy, loving, lightening fast, cuddly, inquisitive, happy, fearless, smiley, and I could go on and on. A lot of times I take one or both of my girls to sessions if I have younger kids in the pictures. They are helpful to me and the little kids usually love them and will smile and react more for them than for me. Anyways, both girls happened to go with me to this session and let me tell you….all 3 of us miss this little one. She has a way of attaching herself to whomever she meets and making others happy. She was giving hugs and kisses almost immediately and wanted us to hold her. She was probably one of the busiest and quickest little ones I’ve photographed yet and that was a challenge, but she was a joy to be with. I don’t have a lot of your typical in your face, smiling “perfect” pics, but I think that the ones that we did get fit her perfectly. Hope you enjoy:)
I’m trying to throw some quick sneak peeks up because…..I know I’m a broken record…but I’m still super behind and want to spend most of the time on actual proofs.
You can’t tell from these pictures but poor little guy Mr. J was not having it this evening. We weren’t able to get many pics of the 2 boys together so this is one of those instances where a storyboard or individual pics grouped together works best.
Here’s my sleepy newborn model that wouldn’t wake up and show us her gorgeous eyes. And no, she didn’t wake up at this photo session either! Big brother looks like a little cover model…don’t you think?! We were also able to fit in some extended family while they were all together. So glad that it worked out. Enjoy:)
Another great family that I’ve been working with for several years. I’m so glad that she jumped on the “urban” mini sessions because I am loving all the color. Urban is definitely one of my faves….too bad the area of town for urban is a little questionable. LOL!
Some of the most adorable kiddos ever….and I love the way they look around all the color!
1. I still haven’t recovered from mini sessions this past Saturday. It was kind of like shooting a wedding with the long hours except we were out in the heat! Thanks to the families that participated!! I can’t wait to share some pics.
2. I really should go to bed early tonight but I want to watch the Chile mine rescues. It’s so interesting but I feel nervous for them…I can’t imagine. I have a live video playing. Everyone in the video is speaking Spanish…I don’t speak Spanish. Maybe I should go watch CNN.
3. I have to number these now because I was spending too much time going back and counting my sentences the last 2 times:)
4. I got in line with the speedy checker for grocery check out last week…and he was just as speedy this time. And I tried to load the groceries faster. And he rang them up faster. I’m gonna get spoiled.
5. Tonight on the way home Drew asked why businesses always put their name on the forehead of the building.
6. What was going on about 8, 9 months ago??? because there has been an explosion of newborns these past couple of weeks.
7. We ran in Gap Sunday and got what we thought were some really good deals. That is until the next day when we got an email saying that they had 40% off your entire purchase on Monday. I just had to have Chad run by after work (it’s way closer to him) and grab a couple more things:)
8. We’re rooting for Bryan Caswell on The Next Iron Chef. We know him and here’s how: It’s my husband’s mother’s boss’ son. Make sense? He and Chad used to play when they were little. He owns several restaurants here in Houston that have rave reviews!
9. Hallelujah!!!! The first miner was just brought up. Wow, definitely had some tears when he hugged his wife and son.
10. The rest of the year is officially booked (not for newborns…we’ll figure out a way to get them in because they’re only that little once). I have a waiting list with 4 people on it now. I think about 6 people/families from the waiting list were able to do pictures last year so let me know if you want on the list.
These are the daughters of Mackenzie’s wonderful orthodontist and they were all about fun! Can you tell from the pictures that they’re naturals? They really play off of each other…in a good way.
Hope you enjoy the peek:)
The temperature is in the 70’s and it is gorgeous! Makes me want to go outside and lay in a hammock. If only I had one. I don’t have a photo shoot this evening and we are going to take full advantage of being outside once the kids get home because this weather never lasts long enough.
It was a pleasure working with this family. They make me want to have deep, dark red hair. I couldn’t quit staring at the color….soooo pretty. Hope you enjoy your sneak peek:)
in all their adorableness! The first few minutes were so perfect. They smiled. They hugged. They looked. And luckily I was a quick snapper because after that it was on the move for the older brother. He had his own ideas in mind and mostly they didn’t include me:) He was all about running and exploring while his little brother just smiled and smiled away.
Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. I’m loving the weather here right now!
I’m scared to have a tween/teen! And Mackenzie is getting close…scary! But I’ve done these kids’ pictures for years now and they’re getting to that age that I worry and stress about and being with them makes me see how fun it can be. They have so much personality (as you can see in the “outtakes” collage) and laugh at themselves and with each other that I’m kind of looking forward to it now. THANKS guys..I have such a blast doing photo sessions with you:)
