There is something about the fun colors and eclectic feel that draws clients to this particular location.  It’s not very big, but the set up allows for different looks without going here and there.

Linda asked for pictures for her birthday present this year (hint to your wives that have hesitant hubbies!!) and of course her hubby obliged, along with the kids.  This family was so great and listened to my rambling and spontaneous conversations about nothing (people I do not get out alot, so I am mostly talking to little people - when there are willing ears I kind of talk much like a tidal wave!)

ANYWAY, they were awesome and I we were in & out with some fabulous images that I think made for a great Birthday present, how about you?

Some favorites…

I just love this one of the two of you…and I feel a small victory here with Joe and his smile

Looking good, Michael

Stunning, Deanna

One of the awesome things about this particular venue, you always have some GREEN!!

You can’t go here and not do a blue door picture…it was very bright (sorry Michael, I know your squinting!), but still loved it!!

Thank you so much Joe, Linda, Deanne & Michael…it was such a pleasure to meet & photograph you all!!

Blessings!

Well, we were missing one (he is stationed overseas right now), but Deborah said it had been a REALLY long time since they had family pictures.  So, we decided to get some new ones, but we’ll be doing it again soon when Dan gets back!

We met for an early morning shoot, which I am loving more and more these days.  The kids were so amazing, really how many kids really LOVE getting their picture taken.  They could have fooled me because they were awesome and we breezed through a great session.  These were a few of my favorites!

This one is for you Deborah…I think that I want a print of it too

Thank you so much for inviting me to photograph your family!

These boys are just too fun for words.  We had a great time downtown with these four guys & their Mama, who is an old high school friend (love facebook)!  They brought some of their favorite things to ride along with them, which was great.  Boys at this age are captured best doing what they love.  Love that Mom thought the same way!! 

Here were some of my favorites from the afternoon…

Seriously look how handsome all of these guys are!!

Meet Jacob

Meet Adrien

Meet Braedin

Meet Parker

And their beautiful Mama, Dawn.  Love this one of you!

Boys and their toys…

Thank you guys for being so great!  I had such an awesome time with you and it was great to see you, D after more than a decade (wow! we’re getting old!)

Blessings!

I am running out the door in five minutes, but just finished my brother and sister-in-law’s family pictures and I HAD to post them because quite frankly I LOVE them.  I am even a little bit jealous of them!!  They are just the sweetest family ever and I love that these pictures captured them perfectly.  I really don’t like that they live farther away than I would like.  On the positive they live in the state, but still 50 minutes away still makes it hard to see them as much as we would like.  Well, lucky me though I am running out the door to shoot a senior session in their neck of the woods, so I get hang out for a bit & I am excited!!  Ok, so here are my favorites, although really I could have posted every image from their session…love love love!!

Lorie…I love that last one of you.  You are beautiful.

Love you guys and can’t wait to see you soon!!

Blessings!

I can hardly believe that Maddy is already headed for EIGHT months!!  She is just the sweetest little mover & shaker!  There are BIG plans beneath those beautiful blue eyes.  I just LOVE this family.  They have supported me from day one and I appreciate them so much!!  Maddy’s amazing mama, Genea has an amazing heart for Jesus that she is instilling in her little ones and she has recently started a business that shows her heart for both Jesus & Kids!!  Check out PRAISEwear!!  I just bought her LOVE themed clothing line for all of my munchkins…I’ll be posting a picture of that soon!!  So, here is Miss Maddy-Moo (& one of Big Bro JD too!!)

Jayden showing off his BIG muscles!

Love her face here…she was humoring us at the end of our shoot…too cute!

Seriously, I am jealous of this last picture.  It totally captures Genea with her children, she is an amazing mom who intentionally find the joy in this journey…LOVE!!

So, thrilled to be on this journey with you sweet friend!!  XOXO

Blessings!
