Check out these ADORABLE kiddos!
"J, J & G" joined me for a little photo-fun at the park yesterday evening. Oh, how I LOVE a summer evening ... and the beautiful light it gives me!
Enjoy the sneak peek!


This adorable family and I had such a great time together! I really enjoyed capturing their fun-loving and easy-going personalities!
Prior to portrait sessions I send out a booking form for my clients to fill out. The booking form has two main purposes: 1) To gather contact information for my own records and 2) It gives you an opportunity to tell me about your family and provide me with some input on how you would like your portrait session to look. This mom gave me some wonderful info. about her adorable children. She told me about their favorite games, colors, characters, etc. She also told me something that really stuck out in my mind - she told me that she wasn't looking for perfection in her portraits so much as personality and joy. I just LOVED that! Throughout our time together I tried to keep that one sentence in mind. I think we captured some real personality and joy! I hope mom and dad agree! Enjoy the sneak peek "T" family!

You are so great at capturing relationships, which is hard to do, but where it's really at!!

(07.08.09 @ 12:04 AM)The pictures could not be more perfect! She may not have wanted perfection, but H & B that's what these are! So happy, so perfect! Auntie D.

Ahhhh.... words cannot describe what an honor and a pleasure it was to photograph these two beautiful babes! They belong to a fellow-photographer and dear friend of mine. Here are just a couple that make me feel all warm and fuzzie inside :-)

What beautiful pictures! I love the vivid colors next to the soft natural tones of the newborn - gorgeous!

I am SO excited to share this session! When a long-time friend of mine contacted me about photographing her family I was thrilled. I immediately began looking for the perfect location...and look at what I found (insert squeal of excitement here)!
Sometimes the stars align: the perfect location, beautiful well-behaved children, great outfits carefully chosen by mom, a warm spring day and ...... MAGIC happens!
Just look at this beautiful family! Thank you "H" family for a super fun session! Enjoy your sneak peek!

Just love the sibs shot where the little dude is covering his face. That would make me smile every time I saw it, were I Mom.
