More Amazing Girls...

Lets just let this little gallery speak for itselfPhotobucket...

Gorgeous Light and Gorgeous Girls...

I am way behind on peeks, but I am catching up!! A friend of mine approached me about doing some pics of her nieces. It totally worked out, as they were traveling in for an insane round of softball tornaments. I know they felt hectic, but I was great- especially bc I was seeing this from my camera- beautiful, fun gals:)

Boys- Boys- Boys...

Lots of them! Here are 3 shoots that I did. Lots of talk of plains, trains, dinosaurs. Lots of singing Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Yo Gabba Gabba and doo-dooing the Thomas "theme tune" How much fun!!

I am working to get these galleries done. Once I finish, I will be ahaed! Just have to get there:) Also,
MAY IS BOOKED! I HAVE AVAILABLITY IN JUNE AND I AM ABOUT TO OPEN JULY. THANKS FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING!

Not the Norm...

Yes, i am working really hard on galleries- i have SOO much to share! Thank goodness for no shoots and rainy weather today bc my butt has been in this chair since the moment i woke up! Feels good to work without having a stopping point. The kids are trashing the house, but oh well:) I have the pleasure of photographing a wedding a year from now. Nope- I do not do weddings and that is what I told this darling lady. BUT, nonetheless, I am booked:) I promise I cannot be swayed to do anymore! Time is such an issue for me and weddings are extremely time consuming afterwards. I have gotten to know Emily over the past year or so and she is such an amazing woman and I am so excited for she and Chris. Here they are in their engagement pics-

Well, as I sit here (feeling much better) I hear the birds chirping out my window, my kids are happily at school and hubby VERY happily at his firefighting academy and me LOVING my job as crazy as it is!! AHHHH- feeling better. I just might share something else that makes me happy. (PS- I had permission!)
My SIS pregnant with my nephew, Camden (Cam) He is set to arrive around June7th and I am beyond excited!! Laura and I grabbed a few shots yesterday bf time flies away from us.

Doesn't she look awesome??!! She was very skeptical about Maternity shots, so we used some beautiful window light and tried our best not to be corny. Love the results! Ok, back to work. Therapy session - over. Thx for listening....

Well...

Things did not go as planned! We had a wonderful time on our trip. My friend, Christy, and I took the kids to see my family (and of course the beach) in SC. ALL 4 of them got sick!!! At different times! The first day, Lily ended up with a fever (bladder inf and STREP) and then Morgan comes out with a virus that had him at 103.7! It was crazy! Then I was without internet... UGH! So, I busted it yesterday and I am doing the same today. Here is a long awaited post:
Bf I left, I finished up my mini shoots at Clinton Preserve with sweet, 1 yr old Wyatt and 2 yr old Haley. We had a great time running around! Here are a few from then (PS- thx so much for your patience!!)

Then, I got to see Ella! A daughter of some old friends of mine. She has grown into a precious little gal:) What a cutie pie-

Check out the bowl and the bootie!!!

So sweet!!
Then... I had the pleasure of meeting baby Colton. A year after his older bro, Colby, was born! They literally had Colby's 1st bday after I left:) These 2 look sooo much alike. Add a couple of pounds to Colton, though. He was born 5 wks early! He was so tiny and sweet when I met him about 3 or so weeks after his trip home from the hospital. What fun this fam is going to have with these 2 awesome boys!! I am only posting one pic bc mom has seen more bc we are working on his announcement. Will prob add more later.

Well, back to work for me! I have 2 galleries that hit 3 wks yesterday, so i am working hard to get them done today. Wish me luck and a huge thanks to those waiting!! Will post a few pics from our trip when I catch up...
