Here are a few images from a family session this weekend. I shot these images for my dear friend and former co-worker Pat. Pat and I used to team-teach middle school intensive reading classes together before I left teaching to stay at home with my two girls. I had a wonderful time and really enjoyed meeting your niece and nephew that you spoke of so often. These are your sneak peeks. I'll let you know when your full gallery is online!
Hey sweetie! Thanks so much for helping me carry my ladder, running to get the tug-of-war rope AND for being my exposure guinea pig! You were a GREAT helper!
Okay, to be honest...I was kinda dreading this session. I LOVE photographing individuals and I find groups to be quite challenging. BUT, this family WAS SO MUCH FUN! I really can't believe how much fun I had and how easy everyone was to work with. Despite some sand spurs, ant bites, and cut toes I think we got some really great images tonight. Thanks so much everyone for being so sweet, fun and cooperative! These are your sneak peeks and I'll let you know when the entire gallery is online. Happy Holidays! 
These are earrings that her sweet husband had delivered to her in the limo before the ceremony. She was so touched. He's a keeper for sure!
Well I did it! I made it through my very first solo wedding. I have to thank "L" from the bottom of my heart for trusting in my abilities and for taking a leap of faith to hire a rookie photographer to photograph her beautiful wedding. She was an absolute sweetheart to work with as were her 3 beautiful daughters, son and hilarious new hubby. Here are a few shots from their very special day.
Our baby girl turned 18 months this month. She is growing up so fast. She is a source of daily joy with her infectious smile and silly antics. We love you "M"! Thanks so much for bringing us soooo much joy!
I hope all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving this year! Here are a few shots of my Mother-in-Law's table setting for Thanksgiving dinner this year. She does such a wonderful job....she really puts Martha Stewart to shame!
Today I did a double session for the "N" family. Our first goal was to get the family Christmas card photo and then we needed to get a few shots of Miss "L" for her 3-month birthday. I think we accomplished both of our goals. Thanks so much "N" family for stopping by today. I really enjoyed our conversations and had so much fun! Here are your sneak peeks. I'll let you know when the entire gallery is online!
So this picture was a total fluke. It was moment I caught a glimps of while I was photographing the brothers. I just love it. It's so symbolic....Daddy walking his little girl down the road of life. Before the birth of my second child, I taught middle school. During these 10 years I witnessed the pain of the children that didn't have a Father figure in their lives. Dads are so important and this Daddy loves his little girl like no other!
