Giese Family

These shots are of my long time best friend Kelly, her husband Jeff and her almost one year old Isabel. I have been telling Kelly for months that she had to quit neglecting having their portraits done and just let me do it. So, today I met Kel and Jeff for a quick shoot. I am so proud of her for doing it. I know she did it more for me than anything since I am constantly on her to do it. I do know that she has been meaning to do it... she is just a busy momma! Isabel turns one in January so these serve as her one year portraits and will probably be the only family portraits these three take before they become four in late April. Enjoy!

4 Women and a Man

Okay, so I posted a lot of images of this fun family! How could I not? There were just so many great shots of this very easy going fivesome. Most days I would say, poor dad... Three little girls under the age of 6, in a house filled with pretty much enough hormones to drive most men crazy but not this dad. It was clear as day that he is as happy as can be with his house full of women. I just love when I get a family that is just themselves. These five were just that... real and I think I captured their realness! Enjoy your sneak peek. There are soooo many more where these came from!

Happy Birthday! Enjoy Your Sneak Peek...

Check out this dreamboat! I have been photographing this little 21 month old spitfire since he was a tiny newborn. Spitfire is an understatement. I have never seen a little guy with so much energy. He is like the energizer bunny!

I have had these photos edited for a few days now but wanted to surprise his mom, Robin, with a little birthday post. Happy birthday to one of the most kind hearted persons and sweetest moms I know. Hope you enjoy your sneak peek of Gunnar! Hope you have a wonderful birthday too!

Family Ties...

That is right they are all related! This fun family had me meet them the day after Thanksgiving for a family photo shoot. I really enjoyed my time with this group. Hope you all enjoy your sneak peek!

They Have It...

When you've got it you've got it, and this family has it. What a great session... so many great shots of this fun loving family. They all are perfectly adorable in so many ways. This is merely their sneak peek so you can imagine how many more images are to come for them. Sessions like this I just cannot stop editing. So back to editing I go. Enjoy your sneak peek Cox family! Oh, and the two little ones kissing... Campbell and Marin. Makes my heart skip a beat. I love it! Its the special shot I hope transpires within every shoot!

Triple J's!

Check out these dreamboats! I mean really, have you ever seen three boys more perfectly handsome then these three? Jackson, Jordan, and Jared... all blond, all cute, and all are all boy! I have been photographing this family since the oldest was a baby! I look forward to our yearly portrait sessions so much because it is always so fun to capture how these boys have changed. However, this year was humbling... Jackson, the oldest, turned 9 and that only means one thing... I am getting old to have been photographing him since he was a baby.

I will have to do a flash back one of these days and pull some old shots from my archive. Remind me to do that if I get caught up in life :) Enjoy your sneak peek Brett, Becca and the boys. I think these are the best yet!

Center of Them!

Check out this adorable family! At almost one, this poor little thing was sick with a bad cough and dripping nose so mom asked to just meet at their place for the shoot. I was a little nervous since I shoot with all natural light. After all I have never been to their home and "blind" shoots make me feel ill-prepared. Thankfully they had great digs and even better, they had a room full of light. As you can see (especially in the first image, which is my favorite) this little one is the center of their life and brings so much excitement and happiness to them. Thank you for having me to your home to meet and photograph your family and also thank you Alicia and Payton for referring me to your in-laws!
