Maternity pics with love

I love being pregnant and I think it's so beautiful... big belly and all. This lady is one beautiful mother with a beautiful family! Here are a few shots of that session.
This one shows that yes, you can get that "studio look" on location... right in front of a window!


this might be my favorite maternity photo ever. I love that the little guy has a sucker in his mouth. How real for a 2 1/2 yr old. It just has so much emotion to it... and a classic look.

What a cutie!

This little girl was such a ball of fun. She had a few funny sayings that would crack her up.


I can hear her laughing when I look at this one :-)

Feeling better

I have been a little under the weather this past week but hoping to recover quickly as I have 2 more sessions and lots of proofing to do.
This session was my 3rd one year old in a row (almost). I have photographed this little one when she was in her mommy's tummy, when she was a week or two old and at 4 or 6 months old. Wow!

I have a Feb opening

I have an opening on Feb 10 (Sat) if anyone is interested in booking it. I just rescheduled a client. Just click on the CONTACT tab on my website and fill out the info with your message and I'll get back with you asap. Thanks!

angel among us!

Had this little angel for this morning's session. Isn't she lovely?

Another one year old!

This little gal is one year old. She had such beautiful skin!

to be one again!

This little guy you might recognize from previous sessions. He is one year now and is full of energy and spunk. There is no such thing as posing... just following around and hoping to be able to capture some of that personality on camera. I think we did!!

This last one rocks! I love the carefree spirit in him. I have several of him smiling (don't worry mom) on the bed but this one makes me laugh and I hope you do too. You go boy!

my kind of family photo!

I strive to capture family moments that are "real" and fun. This is the kind of family photo I want for my own. This one screams "good times"!!

Back to work.

Had my first session today since the holiday break. It felt good to be taking pics for someone else again. I enjoyed the energy and personality of the little girl in this session. The newborn boy couldn't have been any more pleasant despite all the places we put him. The family was so laid back in general... my kind of people!

changing looks

Everyone always tells me that Maddie looks like both of her parents equally, Christian looks his mom and Connor looks like his Dad. When I saw this image, I gasped b/c I saw Aaron. Getting so grown up looking too! Christian doesn't smile anymore for the camera. It's a serious look or a mean dinosaur face. Oh well!

Busy Connor

Connor is quite a handful for me most days. He was such an easy baby but has turned into a real go-getter toddler.... more than his siblings were... or maybe it's just my supervision is not what it was with the first two kids. Anyway, I want to show you how he climbs on my kitchen table. I don't normally approve of it but today I just had to laugh. I mean.... look at the "cheez-its" he's eating. He's already becoming independent.

I try to take him outside every day for at least 20-30 mins to burn off some of his energy. He loves being outside so much. It's his heaven. I love the winter coat, lawn mower look. Sort of represents the type of weather we've had lately!

Hip Hip Horay!
