Happy Halloween!

The plan was never to have the witch hat in the picture. I was wearing it when we went outside and tossed it off right before I started shooting. Ezra grabbed it right up and the giggles started flowing immediately. Sometimes the best shots are the ones you never intended. These just make me smile so big. :0) Hope you all had a fun Halloween.

Theresa + Baby Coming Soon!

After our family session I spent a little time taking some maternity shots of Theresa. Their session was mostly for family photos but you know me...if I get a pregnant Momma I'm going to have to experiment with belly shots! I get asked all the time what my favorites subjects to shoot and my answer is definitely bellies and babies. I can't get enough of them!

The next few shots we took in one of the bedrooms in their home. Theresa must think I'm crazy because I've been talking about this bedroom now for the past three months. They have recently done quite a bit of renovations to their home and this room just seems so sweet to me. A great spot for photos. That's how my mind works these days. Anyway, Theresa and I were shooting these shots by ourselves when Luke decided to pop in and join us. I'm so glad he did. I love this next one.

Peace...

The Berend Family

This family is one of my favorites! We've been friends with Theresa & Chuck for many years now and they always have so much fun stuff going on. A new baby will be joining their family in just a couple months so I was thrilled to photograph them before he makes his debut!

Same shot as above but without the crop. I just love how you can see Evie's sweet smile.

Silly billy...

They were headed to Boo-At-The-Zoo after our photo shoot so I stayed for a few extra minutes to snap some Halloween shots. Couldn't pass up the opportunity to photograph this beautiful Princess and Transformer!

I'm so glad I did because I got my favorite shot of Evie from the entire session...

Thank you Theresa & Chuck!

Happy 1st Birthday Griffin!

This little guy was full of smiles for me yesterday on his 1st birthday. What a special day! I'm so glad I got to capture him and his parents Leslie & Carter on one year to the date that their incredible baby boy came into this world. I've done several sessions with Griffin so it's been so fun for me to see all the neat changes that he's had this past year! Be sure to peek at Griffin's newborn and six months sessions. Isn't a child's first year of life amazing!

I looooooove this next one!!!

Similar shot but with a different edit...

Jack & Jake

My very first session with twins!!! I couldn't have asked for a cuter pair! Twice the cuteness, twice the fun, and twice the pictures! I'm having the hardest time these days picking my favorite shots to blog. So I decided to go with a two part one on this session. First up for today....some individuals of each little boy. Be sure to check back for shots of these two together. You won't be disappointed!
