the K family sneak peek

congratulations to K, who will be meeting a major milestone this weekend, as she'll be receiving her first communion! She was a trooper during our photo shoot, gracefully allowing me "one more shot, I promise!"

her brother was quite a ham, and even made some lady friends while he was off climbing a tree. he is a charmer...

thanks K gang, for a great afternoon at the park!

Kaine Sneak Peek

Happy 2nd Birthday, Kaine! I had a great afternoon with you...and hope you have a wonderful year celebrating 2!

senior session

i tried uploading a sneak peek of this photo to blogger last night, but it was giving me a hard time...kept on getting some error message and so I gave up! it seems to be working fine this morning...now I just dont have the time to upload them all!

i posted a sneak peek of Chelsea's photo shoot on facebook. she totally rocked the camera...and the camera absolutely loved her! you can check out a few more of her pics here if you are so inclined!

thanks for an awesome saturday morning, Chelsea!

all about ella

the first time I met Ella, we were cool. it was cold outside, but she was little and as long as her momma was close by, she was fine with my camera all up in her face. the second time I was with Ella, we weren't so cool. It was freezing out and she wanted nothing to do with me. at all. I have a few outtakes from that session to prove it, too. so, this time, I was bound and determined to make Ella my pal for an hour or so. I decided to bring in the big guns {yellow balloons} to entice a smile or two. she was such a little ham...I had a great time playing with her, and it didnt hurt that the weather was actually nice for once :) and, not to talk smack about her dad, but we asked him to hold the balloons for a few shots and he accidentally let go of them. this is the kids reaction after we heard a little scream coming from where he was standing... thanks, Q crew, for a fun afternoon!!

saturday

saturday was a good day.

a good night's sleep, a good cup of coffee to start the day, then off to meet this sweet little guy.

and then I got to hang out with this crazy cat at a little tea party event




she even obliged me with a photo shoot afterwards {gasp!}, but I'll have to post those pictures later because I havent even started to go through them.

happy tuesday, wednesday and rest of the week!

sneak peek....

cute, eh?


and his sister is pretty darn adorable, too

when I met their mom, she had one request of our shoot, and that was to get a picture of her daughter holding up her wedding dress. you see, the dress had gotten a tad messed up at their reception (which to me is a good indicator of a fun night!) and she wanted a picture of her daughter and her dress, as she thought it would not be in any condition for her daughter to consider wearing when she got married. so, she's not saving it and wanted a memory.

we decided that instead of just holding it up to her daughter, we'd take it outside and let her run around with it on...

I know she looks adorable, but please dont call her a princess.

because even though she looks like one, she's a good old tomboy at heart.

the 3 C's and their beautiful mom....

the junkyard

her mom wanted some senior pictures, so we went to a quaint little place north of town and had a nice time...

then we took it to the junkyard and had a blast! you'd never know it was only 43 degrees outside when we shot these. you were a trooper, bri, thanks for a really fun shoot!
