Grace & Jake

Grace & Jake had a little fun at the Jester Park Natural Playscape getting their photos taken. Even though the foundations are now off and you can't get in the water there are still plenty of photo opportunities. And we had a perfect overcast day to be there.

Paxton - Santa Baby

Paxton is back at 3 months old and looks like he's ready for his first Christmas! Even though he wasn't in a smiley mood he still looked adorable in his Christmas gear!

Henry & Anna

Oh if only they were all this easy! I don't know what else to say... maybe if I had to describe it in one I would say "perfect!"

I love how they wouldn't let go of each others hand to go around the mud puddle.

Cousins

Ok I'm going to admit it... cousin photos are the hardest! They are so excited to be together, they are all wound up, and there always one that tests the limits. When this happens it's best to go for the "interactive" shots and hope you can catch them in a moment.

Family & Cousins!

Wow - it's hard to believe tomorrow is December 1st! Where did the year go? I do have to say the weather has been my friend this year. I've haven't had to reschedule or move many shoots because of the elements. Let's hope it continues!

Owen!

Owen was a bit shy in the begginning and was only interested in his trucks.
Nothing a little game a of peek-a-boo can't fix!

Jack & Greta!

Another at home shoot! Jack & Greta ran around playing in the backyard while I just did my thing. So many times people stress out about getting the perfectly posed "sitting still" photos. This just goes to show, that isn't always necessarily the best way to capture their true selves.

Reagan's Newborn Photos!

Reagan already has a stash of tutus, hair bows, furry boots, and anything girly you can imagine! I walked into a kitchen table FULL of options. Girls are so fun! Ans Reagan wasn't going to miss a minute of the fun. She was so alert for the whole shoot.

Kendall's Fall/Winter Senior Session!

Round 2 for Kendall! The first shoot I did with Kendall we went to Jester Park for nature shots when we still had green & flowers. And she wore her hair curly. This time she wanted an urban shoot with straight hair. Bet you can't tell the weather was pretty yucky. We even battled spurts of heavy mist - but we made it through and I love the outcome!

Bennett!

Big baby blues and the cutest smile ever! Bennett was perfect, and super patient!

Evelyn & Conlin!

Conlin quickly wore out for picture day so I'm glad we got some smiles from him early. Usually no matter how well you "plan" out picture day with feedings, naps, etc...it almost never works out. Believe it or not...My best photo shoots have been with the kids who skipped naptime. I don't know how that worked out! Knock on wood! ;)

Alyssa & Evan!

Again... loving the hot pink in Christmas photos this year. Seems like people are wanting a card that's a little different. I LIKE IT!!!

Caden & Aida!

We stayed nice and warm inside the Botanical Center for this shoot. Aida was in a terrific mood and Caden was super easy.

Jackson & Berkley!

I thought Jackson was going to be a shy little boy when he got out of the car - but I was totally wrong! Jackson put on a show giving me smile after smile.And you'll be seeing more of Berkley because she's coming back to see me Monday!

Luke, Ella, and Noah!

Once your kid/s are around the age of 4, photos become a breeze. These kiddos were so cooperative and we got soooo much done in a short time. Good job kids!

Zeb's Senior Session!

Zeb was such a good sport! He did everything I asked him to do without hesitation. Sometimes senior are a challenge - but definitely not Zeb, it went great.
