One of my favorites...

I was able to spend Sunday afternoon with the great A Family.  I love my sessions with them every year.  Once again, we have known each other since our oldest children were under one year old.  Since they are now in 2nd grade....it's been awhile!  It is so much fun to look back through the years and see this precious family grow.  I love the fact that I get to take generation pictures as well each year.  Since M is an only child, her parents come each year.  So, we get grandparent pictures and family pictures done at the same time.  It is fun and reminds me of what I do with my parents each year.  A Family, I hope you enjoy these.  There are SO many I love, but just picked a few of my favorites to put up here.  I will have them done soon and you can see the rest :)

 

 

 This was THE last picture of the session.  The kids (and adults) had it by this point.  They all turned the switch for one last picture, and it is one of my favorites of the day!

I truly enjoy spending my time with them each year.  Enjoy these previews.  I love the images we captured this afternoon.  I can't wait to share all of them with you!

Two growing girls...

I had the pleasure of spending Sunday morning with the B Family.  They found a great new location we tried out.  It was a fun morning chasing two beautiful girls around :)

 

B Family, I hope you like these previews.  I have a ton I am still working through, but want to keep some surprises!  Enjoy...

 

 Such a fun age for their little one, Miss A.  She is at the age where staying in one spot is not her thing!  It was a fun challenge to capture them together.  I think the more amusing thing would have been to take pictures of what we needed to do to get smiles from them at the same time! :)

This was such a great session and morning!  I love some of the moments we captured. I can not wait for you to see all of them!  Enjoy these!

Family of Five

I was able to spend a great morning with the S Family yesterday.  It is so much fun to take their pictures year after year.  It is amazing that I have been capturing this family in the Fall since 2008!  Yikes, time has gone by way to quickly!  It was a perfect morning to be outside.  It was a little warm, but nothing too crazy for the Valley :)

 

There are so many pictures from this session I wanted to share.  But, I try to keep them under 10....just to keep a surprise for the family! I am glad we found a time this year to make the pictures work.  I hope you like these.  There are SO many more....but you will have to be surprised when they are done!  Enjoy

 

 

I am amazed at how these boys have grown up so quickly!  It seems like yesterday I was trying to find their birthmarks in the pictures to make sure I had the right child in the image.  Now, they are in school full time and so grown up!  Amazing how time flies!

 Looking at sweet S makes me realize (once again) how fast time flies by.  She and my daughter have been friends since before they were one!  They are far from that now.  It is wonderful to see how grown up and beautiful she has become :)

 

 

It was a great morning S Family.  Thanks for spending the time with me!  I will get the pictures to you soon...can't wait for you to see the rest of my favorites!



Two sweet kids...

I was able to spend the morning with the lovely H family.  We have known each other since our boys were little.  It was so fun to see them grow up together.  I have not seen them for months since they moved to a different town!  It was so sweet to spend time capturing the personalities of these two precious kids! 

 

It was a gorgeous morning with lovely cloud cover and neither too hot nor cold.  Could not ask for anything better!

 

 This little girl did everything she could to not let me capture her fun personality!  Luckily, I was quicker with snapping pictures than she thought I would be ;)

 The excitement was stepping on the ants or the "lavala".  They were done with me at this point, but tolerated me since they could play at the same time!  Whatever works is good with me!

 I truly can not believe how little this guy was when I first met him!  It is crazy how much he has grown up!

H Family, enjoy this little preview!  There are a ton more, but I like to keep my surprises! :)  It was so nice to catch up a little bit with you guys too.
