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!

The Collette's...






We met in the Sodo District at a great loft... its in the family and it is to die for. I dream of a place like this to call my studio some day but these places don't exist in Arkansas nor do they exist on my beer budget. This loft is a fine wine with a fine interior of rustic wooden beams, gorgeous old wood floors, exposed brick and character that is charming and warm. Charming and warm much like this cute little family. I knew momma from high school as well as her hubby. Their little one is turning one and he is a mover. Might be my busiest little one to shoot to date but he did well! Dad is a photographer (click HERE for his work) and talks some mean photography lingo so to be honest I am nervous! I hope I do not disappoint. Despite dark lighting I really think this sneak peek shows just who this family is and how much they love each other! Thanks for sharing your loft with me and your Rolleiflex. (yes, I got to use theirs!) I am searching ebay now for one! You guys were a blast. Enjoy your sneak peek!

Now Meet The Meyer's!





Meet the Meyer's. This adorable family pulls up and out pops Madeleine and Max, I mean Dora and Diego... well that was who they were today. Three year olds and twins! You have to love their minds. These two were on the move from the get go. I must say I was prepared for spunk but I did not know I would get spunky parents too. Mom's smile is contagious don't you think? And her new do left me wanting to chop mine. Then there was Dad... I usually have to sweet talk dads into relaxing and interacting with the kiddos and wife but not this one. He did great... no sweet talk required. Okay and I must say that the first image kills me. It leaves me wishing I were a twin or had twins (okay not really) but it leaves me feeling gushy! Enjoy your sneak peek Meyer's family!

Claire...






Oh sweet Claire and her sweet face. From her tiny to toes to her full head of delicious hair this little one is a beauty! This sweet thing and her equally sweet mom paid me a visit today. At 11 weeks Claire performed fantastic and her pictures show just how perfect she is. Thanks Margaret for providing me with my baby fix. Today was fun! Enjoy your sneak peek!
