Jax 2013

I have been shooting little Jax since he was in Deanna's tummy.  We had to shoot inside because of snow flurries.  ON the fly we decided to shoot at their apartment.  It ended up being quite a challenge since Jax was very comfortable at home and was not in the mood to have me in his space.

Posing with Bo Bo he we work him into every shoot.

At one point we gave Jax the family camera to see what I was doing hopefully to calm him down a bit. I love this moment we captured.

Finally happy I cleaned up my stuff and gave him his living room back with the tv!

Thank you D for sharing your family with me again this year!

The Galey's 2013

I have had the opportunity to capture the Galey family as they grow.  I love this family and their spunky kiddos.  This year we battled colder weather then expected and a few bumps and bruises.

Holly thank you for letting me play with your family again, I can't wait until next year!

Billy Lorena and Sofia

Two weeks ago I had a fun afternoon with my brother Billy and his beautiful family.  Lorena and Sofia were gorgeous and Billy was looking dapper all dressed up.  We did the shoot at their home, this is a pretty special little house since 3 of my cousins were raised here and each of my siblings have lived here as adults.  Sofia was not to sure about the fancy dress so we had to work quick to catch her growing personality.  

 I love her cherub eyes and cheeks

Mommy and Sofia (such pretty girls)

What a beautiful family!

Thank you for letting me spend the afternoon with your family, I am pretty lucky to be sister and auntie to you 3!

The Collins Family

Yesterday I had the pleasure of spending the afternoon with the beautiful Collins family at Floyd Lamb State Park.  When Crystal contacted me her goal for the shoot was a picture with both of her boys looking at the camera.  Joey 11 is a fun energetic boy with autism, and Wyatt 10 mo. old has recently discovered walking and is never in one spot long.

This was one of my first pictures mission accomplished now we could have fun!

 Looking at the hand hold so precious to see the connection between these two!

Okay so they may not be looking but I think it is okay, maybe even amazing!

Wyatt 

Look at those teeth!

I am in love with those eyes!

Joey

Look at those handsome brown eyes!

As soon as we laid out the blanket he sat down and looked right at me "cheese" I thought this was supposed to be hard.

 Since the boys did a great job we had a chance to work on the bonus family pictures!

The beautiful fall colors have nothing on the beauty of this family!

The bond between these two is beautiful!

And so it this one!

They loved tickling and tackling Daddy!

Crystal and Eric thank you for choosing me to capture this moment in your families life.  I had a great time getting to know your family!
