Zach, Morgan, and Madison

These sweet kids were getting their portraits made for their grandmother. It was quite a hot afternoon on Saturday, but a light breeze made it more tolerable. The kids did a great job doing what they were asked to do by everyone around - I think the grandmother will have a nice selection to choose from.

Aubrey

Saturday morning Aubrey was a very content and happy little girl. Sometimes she was a little more interested in just taking in her surroundings than getting cozy and smiling - but the pictures of her show several different sides of her personality. I love her genuine expressions.

Madeline

Madeline was born several weeks premature, so although she is ten weeks old, she weighs little more than six pounds. At 7pm on August 15th, however, she was not a happy little camper! Her parents patiently worked with her despite having had a rough day themselves and we managed to get quite a few beautiful pictures of their precious baby girl.

Lindsay's Bridal Session

I wish I could post some pictures on here of Lindsay's bridal session yesterday... but they dont want anyone to see them yet. So I'll have to wait another three weeks when they get married to remove the password protection. I just love some of the images and Lindsay was great to work with. I barely had to coach her. I'll try to post some of them when I post some wedding teasers.

Welcome Baby Jade!

I hope its okay that I'm posting these on here. Baby Jade was born at 1:06am on Saturday morning. I got the message around 8am, but since I had a portrait scheduled for the morning, I couldn't get there until almost noon. She is a beautiful newborn and I think she is perfect. She hardly cried at all even though she was handed around the room quite a bit for pictures. She even smiled a couple of times! I just loved being there with her family. I couldn't help but stare at her - babies are such great little miracles.

5 Week Old Isaac

Look at this handsome little baby! I love moments between parents and their new babies. Everything is so sweet and tender. And I think they told me that one of the grandmothers buys each grandchild a teddy bear when they're born so that you can see how much the child grows over the years... great idea!

Kylie and Cassie

We had a gorgeous day on Friday for portraits.. the weather couldn't have been more perfect outside. These girls were so sweet - I just loved being with them and we had fun together... it's always a good thing when the kids voluntarily hug you when you're about to leave! Here are some highlights from their session:

Sweet Jasey

I wish you could hear this little girl laugh - it was so sweet and cute! She sure wasn't happy to be set in the grass, but thankfully her dad was willing to sacrifice a shirt for the cause. The parents did a terrific job getting her to smile and giggle - she was a delight to work with!

Maternity Session

This was a session she really just wanted to focus on belly shots, so thats primarily what I am posting here.
