Had to share this....

Love this pic of Sadie smiling at her Mama......


Belly bump!

I just love a belly bump, don't you?
Jessica, I am so envious....I don't think
I looked this good with the first...and
certainly not the 2nd!
*
Thanks so much for choosing me....
this is such a special moment in our
lives, and sometimes we don't realize
it and skip the pics of ourselves...."ahem."
*
Baby "Jacks" has a beautiful family
waiting for him! I can't wait to meet him!

Nick + Erin = Rockin' Couple

I photographed this rockin' couple last weekend....
I was blown away at Erin 's talent...she made
her wedding dress & veil, made her daughter's
dress, made cute little place card tuxes & dresses,
made the food...alot of food, made her invites,
her cake and decorated for the reception!
Now, she had a lot of help from family the
day of, but still......unbelievable what this chick
pulled off for a 10am wedding!
*
Nick attended school to study graphic arts
& photography! He is serving our country in
the Army and was only home for a short time to
finalize their wedding. Nick, thank you for
keeping all of us safe!
*
Tbey were both so comfortable in front of the
camera and were so "in the moment."
You can not only "see" their love in these
pics, you can feel it! And check out their
SHOES! Too cute! After we took pics in their
wedding attire, they changed into street clothes.
*
Erin & Nick.....I had sooooo much FUN!
Truly....thanks so very much for including
me in your special day!



This one I tried with two different actions

I use....I loved both looks!







Here they are with their beautiful daughter, "R."
Love her hair.....al nautral........



LOVE the shoes!!!!!











New Friends....

I loved meeting this new family! I have two
boys of my own and they are very energetic
to say the least! These three were full of it
themselves! Little "J" below was very
quick on his feet! Isn't he a doll?


Next is little "O," who was quite shy of me...
I think the bubbles & fruit snacks changed his mind!

Then there is "N," such a sweetheart....
He's 5, like one of my little guys....I love 5!

This one I had to share.... Do you know what
this pic shows? Security......he loves his bear.

Busy day!!!

I had such an amazing day.....My hubby brought
me a Frappucinio from Starbuck's to start....Then
I met up with "M," she is so full of spunk & has the
sweetest little voice.... by early afternoon, I was off to
get my hair done, with my amazing beautician, "Heather,"
from Salon Artistry. Just as I pulled in the driveway,
my next client arrived. They were new to LDP & I was
excited to meet all of them! We had a "busy" session and
I got some great shots!(I'll share those next post!) Finally,
I spent the evening with my hubby & kids. Perfect day!
*
Look at how gorgeous "M" looks......

So sweet...
This was her pose.....when I got her out of her
carseat, she did this.....I think she has seen a
camera once or twice before......hahahaha!



Throwing sticks in the creek & still looking beautiful

Beautiful Girl!


One of her with my little Kendall...they just love eachother!


Thanks Trisha & Brent for letting
Kendall & I hang out with "M" today.....
PS. I think she wants a new cat!

My beautiful Ally....

My daughter, Ally, is the Miss Teen Congeniality of Blossomtime
and this past weekend we attended the Coronation Ball together.
It was fun to see all of the queens and their courts, beautiful gowns
were everywhere! I think Ally's favorite part was seeing the Kings...
ugh......she's 14.....I know how I was at 14......and it scares the
beh-geezus outta me! hehehehe!

Princess?? For sure!!!

Ally & I.....Ok, I am very reluctant to post pics
of myself.....I like to be behind the lens, not in
front of.... but, I need to get over it....my kids
will appreciate it later.....

The Ladies of Prom!!!

My niece, Mariah, attended her first prom this year!
I took her to get her hair done first.....

Then her friends showed up........
Black & White dresses seemed to be the theme :)
Fun posing.....

"Best-ies"

Smashingly Fabulous.....


With the boys.....

More of Miss Sadie...

Anytime I can be around a new baby, I am in Heaven....
Little Miss Sadie is so sweet and she LOVES to snuggle...
ugh....you would think I would be over the baby fever,
considering I have had four of my own......truth is,
I would have as many as I could.......just look at her
and you'll understand...











Her Mommy & Daddy just adore her.....

We tried this without the diaper, but she was being
a little shy about that, so we compromised....
