Ohhhhh Brother - or in this case, oh (so cute) brothers!

When I saw these two boys walking up for their portrait session I new this would be one of my easiest sessions of the day.  The older brother was so handsome - here, see for your self.  He was a natural in front of the camera and his smile was so relaxed.  It was great!

Now, his little brother... handsome too, but such a ham.  I had a lot of fun with him.  He had a little bit of sass which added to the fun.

This family of four was not only full of smiles but full of love!  Here are the boys with their Dad and their Mom.  Aren't they a good looking group?

It was great to meet this group and so fun to photograph them.  I hope to work with them again!

Little Miss was full of sass - and I loved it!

This family was very energetic and fun in their jeans and black shirts.  Little Miss was full of sass in her boots too.  It was fun to see them all together!

Her eyes - I mean really - her eyes were so beautiful, I could photograph her all day!

Sometimes, some of the best pictures are when they aren't looking right at the camera.  Never delete an image until you have a chance to "really" look at it!

...not only that, sometimes your subject doesn't even need to be facing the camera at all.  A girl and her daddy.  Love!

Grandparents are the BEST!

When this fun loving Grandmother contacted me about family photos with her grandson and his parents, I was thrilled.  I really love multi-generation session, they are definitely some of my favorites!  You can see the love this little guy has for his grandparents.

There is a special bond between grandparents and grandchildren - don't miss capturing these moments with your children and your parents!

                     

Of course we also spent some time letting him be himself... look at those muscles, he is so strong!

Mom and Dad were fun too, lots of smiles, and lots of love.  Thanks so much for a fun session that showed the love between the generations!

Capturing their "this is what we look like right now" portraits

When you notice how fast the kids are growing and you need updated photos of them, let's get together!  These 2 teens plus a tween showed up early one morning to capture their "this is what I look like now" images.  Don't miss these opportunities with your kids - they will never look just like this again!

These siblings were a lot of fun and so cooperative - made my job easy!

One of my favorite poses for teenage girls... and she nailed it!

A "Picture Perfect" Family

When a client refers someone to me I am always thrilled!  When a client refers someone to me that has adorable children who love the camera, well, that makes my day!!  Rayanne and Dan are one of those clients that have become friends.  When Rayanne told me that her friend (from forever ago) wanted to get family photos done I couldn't wait to hear from her.  Ria contacted me a few days later and we set a date.  Little did I know, this family was "picture perfect" - just look at them!

Then, when I got their girls in front of the camera they just lit up!  I mean really, see for yourself....

Looking at this little one with her dad and then with her mom just warms my heart!

....and this little "model in the making" couldn't make my job an easier than she did!  

Her sweet smile!

Yep, it's Rilynn again.... 

Oh how I love this sweet girl's smile.  She came in and acted like she owned the place, I love it!  She loved the whitewashed rocking chair and it was fun to see her sitting in it, it was my rocker when I was about 2 years old.  I've been lucky enough to photography Rilynn quite a few times, she never disappoints!

It's hard to believe that, since I took these, I have photographed her again and.... she is walking!  I love that I get to watch clients' (who have become friends) kids grow up through the lens of my camera!!

Valentine's Day Cards Please....

A returning client explained how important Valentine's Day cards were to her and was excited to come have photos taken of her two boys.  This is the second time photographing the baby but something like the 4th or 5th with Tatum, the big brother.  They did great and we were able to get this sweet pose of Tatum loving on his baby brother.

After a few more poses with the boys, mom got in on the action.  I just couldn't help grab a sweet photo of him holding mom's finger.  With these smiles and all this love, it sure makes my job easy!
