Lots of Love!

FOUR generations of love, to be exact! What a fun shoot.

Little H is an absolute joy and a HOOT! She is full of personality and expressions and she LOVES to give kisses!

Stunning!

I worked with this family a while back (still catching up on my new blog!) and they were just a joy! Lots of fun and very cooperative. Up for anything, which makes it easier on the photographer! You may recognize these guys from my portfolio...

The oldest and the only girl, J couldn't take a bad picture! She is just gorgeous and such a nice girl! (she was also the best jumper...shhhh, don't tell her brothers)





N is the youngest of the three and such a cutie! I bet all of the "tween" girls are after him!


Now Z is the "middle child". True to his birth order, he appears to be the clown of the family...he was lots of fun!



As you can see, individually and together, they are just a stunning family!

Sweet Family!

Because we are friends with this family, the photo shoot went ultra smooth...until little A got a splinter! OUCH! She has made a full recovery, however. ;) Thank goodness we got some beautiful shots before the incident! How can you go wrong w/ gorgeous olive skin and such beautiful coloring?

I {heart} newborns!

Can I just say how much I LOVE photographing newborns? This little sweetie was only 4 weeks old at the time of her shoot. Her older brother was supposed to be napping but I think he secretly wanted in on the action as well. ;) So I squeezed in a few cute shots of him as well!




What a couple of cuties!

These are the people in your neighborhood...

I had the privilege of working with two families who happen to be my neighbors! They lived next door to each other and thought it would be a great idea to get some beach pictures done before they moved {one family already moved and the other will in a few months :( }. I photographed both families in one day! YIKES! But the kids were extremely cooperative and everything turned out just fine. It doesn't hurt that both families are stunning! The kids have such personality too...


D family...




R family...





All of the kids together in a sand pit!

Both families...

Portfolio up and running!

Please feel free to browse my galleries of maternity & newborns, children & teens and families. The link is on the left hand side.

We Are Family...

I had the honor of photographing my beautiful niece--(who is a miracle and an angel!) Faith Elizabeth--as well as, my gorgeous great nephew, Aidan Michael! They are both truly blessings to our family. At the time of the shoot, they were 5 weeks and 4 weeks old, respectively. SO SWEET!
