My Girl!

I have been eying the sunlight in my front room for a while now, thinking that it would be great for pictures...today my sweet baby was my target today!









This hat was just too cute for me to resist! She's not too sure about it, after about 5 minutes she starts tugging on the flower! If she knew how cute she was, she would understand!

Sisters...

Recently I was able to visit my younger sister...and meet her new little one! Time for us to be together is few and far between, so I was so excited to have some time to do just that...be together.













Thanks Erin for a wonderful visit. I really enjoyed getting re-acquainted with the girls...and cuddling Carson! Can't wait to see you all again soon!!

Pure Sweetness...

I was hoping to get some shots of this little guy when he was just a couple of days old, but thanks to the nasty Flu bug, he is now eleven days old!! He couldn't be more precious; and I don't think I have ever seen so much hair...except when his brother was a baby!

Maternity peek

It is always fun to have a chance to do something new...especially when it involves friends...and the anticipation of new life!!

























What a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon...Amanda you are beautiful! Thanks for being good sports...and letting me practice with you! What a blessing to share this time in your life with you!! Can't wait to meet this little one!!

The R Family {sneak peek}

I had such a fun time playing photographer this weekend. It's been a while since I taken family pictures of anyone...since September to be exact. So I was especially excited to take these pictures for some new friends of ours! There couldn't be a pretty spot then this...small waterfalls...trees...ponds...bridges... and just a little bit of sun. It also helps to have a very photogenic family!!

W and G

I had the chance to take some pictures of some long time friends...hard to believe I have known these kiddos since they were born...and very thankful to be stationed in the same place - at least for a couple of years?





I will be so excited to take more pictures of these two...especially when their new baby brother or sister arrive!!

A few minutes with the M Family

It's easy in the midst of our busy lives to forget that we have soldiers in harm's way! Spending a few minutes with this family just a couple days prior to deployment brought this back to the forefront of my mind. Let's remember families like this all over the country who are daily sacrificing for our country, and keep them in our prayers!















Thanks M family for your sacrifice...May God truly bless you with peace and comfort until you are back together again!!

First Time Newborn Session...Baby T

Just a few days ago, I had the honor of taking some newborn photos for a friend. I had a great plan in mind, had thoroughly envisioned how the morning would go - it was nothing like I had pictured. As delightful as it was, I now have a new found respect for Newborn Photographers. Getting the perfect cuddly poses is definitely a talent and a learned art!

(On a side note, if the color of these pictures is way off, I am on the road and editing on a lap top - I may have to make some changes when I get home).

This little guy was so sweet, cuddly, and handsome especially with his full head of hair!















And just for fun Big Brother T decided to let me take some picutres of him too. He wouldn't change into his blue jeans and nice shirt, nor would he pose with Baby T, but he had no problems posing for me!



I couldn't resist trying to get a shot of his beautiful long lashes!!



Thanks Barbara for giving me this opportunity! I hope your husband can enjoy these photos too...please tell him thanks for his service and sacrifice!! I can imagine he can hardly wait to hold his boys again soon!!
