A Walk in the Woods…

This family invited me to come exploring in the forest behind their house. Well, well, well…who knew? It was so beautiful there and, really, the perfect place to capture this family together as they spend a lot of time there(who wouldn’t?). Just to make their house that much more fun, they are welcoming a third into the mix in August. When you make kids this gorgeous, why stop?

Okay…the hair. It’s fabulous, isn’t it? See…in my house the boy got ‘the hair’…of course, this little girl is 4 and already talks of how she likes to straighten it when it is wet. What is she NUTS?!!!!  Just look at how gorgeous the light is in it?

I really love images of the parents having a quiet moment. Afterall, it is their love for each other that created this family.

Just mom…waiting for babe. Oh! And, for those in the know–these guys won a contest of mine a while back for a free session! Keep your eyes open because I have some contests coming up!

Fall Mini Sessions

This is one of my favorite images from last fall…ahhh, fall. It’s coming fast and I just want to remind everyone about my fall ‘Short and Sweet’ sessions. They are 30 minutes long and designed to get the best images for holiday gift giving. The $75 session fee is waived if you purchase the digital negatives up front for $600. Your session is guaranteed to get 7 great images(but let’s face it–I’m being conservative!!!). You’ll have access to all my other fabulous treats and some special ones reserved just for this special group! Want to get your Christmas shopping done in one spot!!! Two sessions. Two locations(Fish Creek and Downtown). Limited spots. Contact me for more information.

Ditchin’

So, I knew I’d get a long great with this couple when they suggested an abandoned road we could use as a location. I love to go ditchin’. You know…pull over on the side of the road and take shots of kids running through the beautiful long grass(and the occassional weed). In my house, that’s called ‘Ditchin’.  My favorite activity. If you add to that a cute 6 month old full of drool and gorgeous blue eyes–you get my favorite morning activity.

If the look and the drool on this one don’t just make your heart fill with joy I don’t know what would!!!

This family shot is a ‘me’ shot. Which means it makes me happy.

Look at the size of daddy’s arms? Boys will need to be careful with this beauty!!!

And, if we all looked this good at 6 months postpartum the world would be far more populated

When I plopped her down in the middle of the road(okay a driveway, but still) she just wanted to eat the rocks, so I called off the shot. The mom pointed out that there were less rocks in this spot!

After a morning of ditchin’ everyone should take a nap like this. Isn’t she the sweetest thing? Seriously. Thanks guys!
