Girlz!!

These are my girls. I don't have any of my own, so I claim my best friends daughters as my own. And who wouldn't want to claim them, they are so stinkin cute.

I love my Job

I really love my job. It is so much fun to get to chase after all these cute little people and capture their adorable smiles.

Great Family

This family was really great and I loved photographing their two busy girls who are 2 and 3. I just love pigtails!

What a difference a year makes.

I love doing photo shoots for families year after year. It's so interesting to watch these kids grow up before your eyes. This little girl is so cute, and I had the privledge of taking her 1 year old pictures last year, and then doing some 2 year pictures of her this year. Here are some shots from last year and this years session.

I'm in Love!

My best friends daughter is just the sweetness thing, I'm in love with her! And also I love that my amazing friend has such awesome creativity. This photo shoot was all her doing. The cool bouncy horse in the field, and all the other darling props were all her. So while we were doing pictures of her little girl, I could'nt resist taken some of my youngest little guy. Especially when I saw the chaps and vest that my friend had in her dress up bin. I love these picture even though they were taken in noon day sun!

A Crazy Summer!

It has been a like a whirlwind this summer. I just can't believe how fast it has flown by. I feel bad that I haven't been keeping this blog updated because I have had so many fantastic sessions that I can't wait to share images from. So here is a sampling of what I've been up to this summer.
