Doing some family photography with this sweet family was such a treat.  We met and settled ourselves into this small little apple orchard and just enjoyed the evening.  There was a little reading, lots of bubbles and even some dancing.  I’ve known Lindsay since I was much younger and she’s the kind of gal that you just love to be around.  And so, it’s no wonder that her family was just a dream to be with too.  You guys are so great!  Ryan & Lindsay, you two have such CUTE kiddos and all with eyes to die for! You’ve built something fantastic together, I can tell… I hope you enjoy what we captured! 🙂

Family photography like this is so fun.  Natalie and I worked together to find a suitable location with a fresh, springy look for her family and did we ever find what we were after.  These cherry trees provide the perfect backdrop for Natalie and her darling kids… who are, by the way, oh so cute!  The effect in all her family photos is wonderful.  Such BEAUTIFUL light!!!!! I feel so honored to shoot for this sweet family because Natalie is a photographer herself who wanted someone to capture her and the kids in action.  Sweet little Lucy was not too hip to the idea, but I think we still captured some very sweet shots.  Nat, thanks again and enjoy, enjoy! 🙂

This sweet, darling mom suggested doing her family photography session and Afton’s 6 month photos in her grandmother’s home and on her porch.  I knew there would be great light as long as we had sunshine and did we ever!  I have been so excited to show this darling family their session because I am quite in love with it…. IN LOVE!!!  I haven’t been able to pull myself away from their library of delicious photos.  The love just pours from these images and makes me all soft inside.  Rori, you are beautiful!!!  I still want that secret recipe for looking so good just months after having sweet little Afton… 🙂  You have the cutest style!  I love what we captured inside as well… don’t you?  I hope you are as pleased with the results as I am and here’s to finding many of your photos to love!

Ahhhh, newborn photography is so FuN! I love going into family’s homes to capture everyone and baby in their most natural environment.  I love to see a family relaxed and kicked back for a shoot and being at home just has a way of doing that!  Kids come alive when they’re in their own element.  It’s such a great job… doing this for new moms.  It’s something I wish I would have done when my little ones came… a photographer capturing all those newborn features right in the comfort of my own home. 🙂  Weston, this sweet little babe, was such a gem for his shoot.  Though, he would not hear of sleeping unless he was swaddled tight; mom knew just what to do and once he was bundled, he barely wiggled.  This sweet babe is a VERY loved bundle by mom, dad, sister and two brothers… lucky kid!  And at only 2 weeks old, Weston was fantastic to photograph; loved every minute of it!  Bobbi… can’t get over the beautiful natural light in your kitchen and how striking those photos turned out… thanks again for having me.  Enjoy! 🙂

Having fun with some spontaneous children’s photography; keeping the creative juices flowing.  Thanks to little Miss K.

All I can say is WOW!  We shot the Fisher’s children & family photos with natural light, on location… right in their own home!  Could there be an easier way to do family photos? Just hang out right at home and let the photographer come to you…  sounds great to me!  This photo shoot is a fantastic example of the beauty of natural light that exists right in the walls of your own home.  Got a bit of space and some big windows that let in the light… well, what are you waiting for!?  Grab the camera and get to snapping; you may just surprise yourself!!! We settled ourselves in the middle of this darling family’s living room, just opposite their 3 large picture windows and got right to shooting.  A few days later and wha’la, a great big bunch of super stylin’ photos.  And will you all agree with me that this is ONE photogenic family…. Wow,wow, WOW! 🙂  I ‘heart’ these faces.  Great job you guys, enjoy!

Sessions like this remind me why I LOVE what I do… photographing families and children just brings a smile to my face!  Robyn and her boys are all so great… Robyn’s SO in love with her boys, it’s easy to capture the candid shots that we both love.  I do a lot of silly stuff to make the boys laugh and ask Robyn & Scott to do crazy things too… I’m pretty sure they think I’m a tad crazy myself. 🙂  In the end, it’s all worth it because we get vibrant, lovely family photos and a lot of smiles along the way…. enjoy!!!

Jennifer & Brock, your kiddos are just as sweet and choice as they come; such a BEAUTIFUL family!  Your photo shoot is really elegant…. I must say.  I only wish I could have captured more of Liv!  Can’t wait to do that for you!  Like I thought, the woods of the violins and even the beautiful color of your puppy really make the photos so warm and yummy.  I hope you EnJoY what we’ve captured and soon we’ll have several more of Liv to add! 🙂

This darling family gets my badge of honor today because they were brave enough to venture outside in December for family photos!  Yes it was chilly, but they brought enough cheer to go around several times over!!!  They kept me giggling the whole time. 🙂  Nancy’s family owns a ranch with wide open spaces and lots of wonderful room to run.  I can tell the kids love it there and have countless hours of memories built up to last a lifetime!  The morning we shot these, the fog had rolled in and left us with an enchanting, wintery feel and I’m loving it!  I had such a fun time getting to know Nancy & Jeff and their darling kiddos and that is why I am so excited to post these darling photos.  Fantastic work to each of you. Enjoy! 🙂
