Last year I got together with Cassie and her family and man how much have her kids changed over the year. Bryson was so sweet he absolutely being in front of the camera. I had so much fun Avery was a little shy but as soon as we started exploring she was so happy. This family is such a sweet family, and I absolutely loved this location. Sometimes you see pictures and you see the dreamy location only to find out it is a wash off of a busy street. I want to go back!
I was beyond excited for my friend Julia and her husband Lee when they announced that they were expecting a little boy! I wasn’t in town when they had their little girl Kennedy so it is fun to be in town for Ronin. I was extra excited and honored when she asked if I would do a fresh 48 for her little family. Ronin is just the cutest thing in the world and he has 3 of the best big sisters. One of which was at the hospital too meet him. Kennedy is just the cutest and already such a great big sister. She is planning on teaching him all the fun things! Here are a few of my favorite from their session plus a little film that I put together for them!
I got to meet Marie through another mom friend and we became fast friends. She is the sweetest mom raising two very awesome human beings! Hudson and Gemma are two of the cutests kids. We did valentine’s day pictures back in February and Gemma didn’t want anything to do with me or my camera and this time we were able to capture her super cuteness. And we ended the night checking on the ducks in the water!
Let’s just talk about this Fresh 48 session. Nicole allowed me to come in after Baby Ella came out of the NICU. Nicole was my lucky mom who was the first to receive a film with her Fresh 48 session and let me tell you we have all melted over the film of baby Ella with her little cries and her sweet little noises that they make. Baby Ella was a few weeks early but she was a sweet 6lbs 8ozs with a head full of hair. I am always jealous of those sweet babies that come out with a head full of hair.
Here is a short film from her session along with some of my favorite images from her session!
How fun is it when you can sit down and do a session with your cousins especially when the cousins range from 3 months to 5 years old. This was a fun little challenge for me but it reminded me a lot of my family. When ever we get together we try to do a grandkids sessions and the last time that had 10 kids ranging in age of 9 months to 12 years.
Baby V and Luke are so lucky to be so close in age and so close together and then the girl are all so close in age also. It is fun that they all live so close together and get to grow up together.
So I have been keeping a secret a kind of big secret. My sister was pregnant with her 5th little cutie. What makes her story a special one that she is doing this while her husband is on the other side of the world serving our country. Some might call her crazy I may have a couple of times but she is also a superhero. All military spouses are superheros. They may not be the ones fighting in the wars but they are serving our country right here by holding down the fort taking care of the family making sure that everything goes on while their other half is not there. Christina is doing all this while growing my 12th Niece. That is right I have 6 nephews and now I have 6 nieces. She did a road trip this summer with my parents and came out to visit my family and while they were out here we did a quick session down by the river. Here are a few of my favorites from the session! We also did some pictures for my niece Paige’s 8th birthday!
I was so excited when Cassie got a hold of me and wanted to do a session with just her and Bryan. Couple’s alone usually are not my thing but I am starting to find that I love doing these sessions. We as couples the longer we are married and the more children we add to our brew we need to remember where it all started. Just 2 humans who fell in love and decided to dedicate their lives to each other. I had so much fun walking around the arts district of Downtown Phoenix. This area is a spot that has really been built up over the last 6 years because I don’t remember any of it when I was working downtown. I have now fallen in love with this area. It screams couples and seniors and I am excited to see what it will be like when I take families down there. There is just so many ways to capture an urban feel! Here are just some of my favorites from their session and well there are a lot it was hard to narrow it down! Enjoy!
I was so excited that we could fit in this session with Kati and Todd. Todd was such a good sport. I had asked Kati if they would mind letting me shoot them so I could work out some things and they were perfect. They were the definition of relaxed. They let me work through what would work and what would not and I loved it and I fell in love with all of their pictures so this will probably be an over share but I just can’t help it.
It was so fun getting to head home for a couple of weeks and what made it even better was getting to catch up with friends whom I haven’t seen in a really long time. I can’t believe how grown Jacob has gotten. His mom was talking about how he got to go to space camp for a week how cool is that. Then there is Oscar he is what I call a superhero. He has been through a lot in his short little life and seems to be such a happy little boy. I can not forget about their mom and dad. We worked together many moons ago and it is so fun to see what they are up to now. Joe is teaching at Forest Park and Kayla is now teaching at Wesleyan Kentucky University. Here are some fun pictures from a new location in Jasper called Parkland!
So one of the things that I loved when I worked in News was getting to meet new people. I want to say that the Gliege family was so much fun. They were in from Canada and wanted some pictures from the desert! They picked the perfect time to be down here in the spring when it was super nice here. I loved getting to hang out with them. The girls were so much fun and loved the horses that showed up at the end of our session!
