I realize my blog posts have been severely lacking in the pictures of my own children department.  I have gotten out of the habit of just keeping my camera out on the counter.  Picking it up here and there during the day and capturing a little bit of our every day lives.  That may reign […]

This week’s challenge at I Heart Faces is “A Touch of Sun”.  I thought this image of a sweet little two year old girl that I photographed would fit the theme well.  I asked her mom to bring something personal to the photo session.  She brought bunny.  As you can see, they are best friends. […]

Back in February, I photographed this little blue eyed boy at five months old.  He came back to see me for my mini-sessions, and I think his eyes have gotten even bluer.  Jack is now eleven months old and was full of smiles.  He was the very first session of the day, and we quickly […]

Things are never gradual in the weather department here.  A few days ago, it was eighty something degrees.  Yesterday it didn’t get out of the fifties.  Last night-40’s.  Tomorrow-snow.  Just kidding about that.  But seriously, it’s not too far off.  Last year, it snowed in October.  I always vow that I won’t turn the heat […]

The day I did my mini-sessions in August, one-third of them were for seniors.  It seemed to be a popular choice for the boys, since I know many guys don’t really love getting their picture taken.  A mini-session seemed like a painless, quick option.   Here are a few images from the seniors.  I know […]

I loved when this family showed up I saw their red and blue outfits.  It reminded me of first days of school, shiny red apple cutouts decorating bulletin boards, students names written neatly in elementary teacher’s perfect handwriting.  I know, I know. . . that’s a little strange.  Tell me that you can kind of […]

What’s better than a newborn photo session?  Nearly nothing.  But when it’s a newborn photo session for your good friends, who just had their last child (and first daughter), it makes it a whole lot more meaningful.  My friend Jami talked her OB into moving her scheduled c-section up sooner. . . not sure how […]

Brayden started Pre-K this morning.  I think we are really happy with the school we chose.  Last year, I spent an hour driving him to school–not an hour each way. . . 15 minutes each way-there and back, there and back.  I had to get out and bring him in, which meant also bringing Carter […]

About a month ago, I had the privilege of photographing a family who was asking me for something so unique that I had never photographed it before, nor will I probably again.  It was five generations of women (sounds weird calling a baby a woman, but I wasn’t sure how else to word that!).  Julia […]

I did Landon’s newborn session four months ago.  You would never believe it was the same baby . . . he has grown and grown and grown!  He weighs about as much as my eighteen month old!  I need to invite Landon over to give Carter some lessons on how to eat properly 🙂 We […]
