a little emotional...

so... I have always been told I am emotional... I used to become defensive and argue that I was not... but the older I get, the more I am embracing that I am a little emotional... I cry easily.  Many things move me, a mother's gentleness with her children, the joy in boys running across a field, a group hug...  I have to admit, these photos got me a little teary-eyed... perhaps because they remind me of my boys... and their intense love for their sisters...

 

 

 

 

These put a smile on my face...

 

 

 

 

 

 

Senior {Nicole}

Nicole was perfect... she is easy going, talkative, and a beautiful young lady!  Enjoy your sneak peak... especially mom and dad, I hated keeping you waiting so long :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

That "perfect" Family picture....

We all want it.... that perfect family picture... the one where everyone is looking at the camera, smiling beautifully in our best outfits...with little ones this can be a very challenging goal...  we tried many things on this sunny Fall morning to get the beautiful PIerce girls to "cooperate" with our plan... we may not have gotten the traditional family portrait but instead we captured the essence of what makes this family so wonderful.  We captured the love and the joy this mom and dad have in being parents to their sweet daughters, we captured the tender moments of a mother gently consoling her child, we captured the energy and excitement of real family life and that is the perfect family picture in my opinion.

 

 

 

Senior {Jenny}

Jenny was wonderful to work with... not only is she strikingly beautiful, she is very sweet!  Her family's love of the outdoors was quite inspiring to me also... Backpacking sounds like such a great way to bond as a family and enjoy nature and I enjoyed dreaming of the future when my kids and I could enjoy that.  Enjoy your sneak peak Jenny, you are a beauty!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fall Colors + Family Love = the perfect combination.

We had a beautiful Fall evening for the Carpenter Family Session...  it was so much fun!!  They obviously really enjoy one another too and that is the perfect combination!

 

 

 

 

 

 

and my favorite...

Lauren & Weston

These two kiddos, are the CUTEST!  I have been taking Lauren's pictures since she was Two, she gets more and more beautiful every year... and sweet too... at the end of our session, she hugged me and thanked me... how sweet is that?  And it is hard to believe Weston is already six months old!  It seems like just yesterday that we did his newborn session!  Enjoy Jillian... I loved seeing you all again!

 

 

Rain, Rain, go away... or maybe not...:)

This weather lately has been incredibly unpredictable....  we had already rescheduled our session once due to weather... so on Sunday, we were trying it again... it was slightly overcast... but the sun started to shine through the clouds.  I was so excited that it looked like it would clear up for our shoot.  We were only about 10 minutes into our session when all of a sudden, it started down-pouring!  We took shelter under some trees and my teeny umbrella and waited for the rain to let up.  The Goldstein Twins were amazing through the ordeal... they just snuggled up to mom and dad quietly with their eyes-wide open just taking it all in. Thank goodness, the weather did clear up enough for us to get some really fun pictures!  Enjoy Kevin and Nicole, it was definitely worth the adventure :)
