Who had A LOT of curls! This little gal stopped me in my tracks….literally. I mean, look at her? Isn’t she a show stopper? Love, LOVE all those curls and that sweet little face.

(Have I mentioned lately that I love my new studio with it’s fabulous brick walls? Well, I do.) She started to get just a little tired of that barefoot chic with the camera…

But not to worry, she pulled another smile out of her hat to end our session. What a beautiful girl! Thank you so much for the opportunity to capture her.

…You can pick your nose and people think it’s cute.

Love, love, love those cheeks and lashes…what a doll baby.

And we had to get a shot with adorable big sister!

Lovely girls to be certain.

I recently had the honor of photographing the group RESCUE. It was so much fun, I think I laughed more than anything. Other than the conversation and laughing, my favorite part of this session was standing outside and listening to them sing “I love you Lord” on the street corner outside my studio. If you want to hear their beautiful version of this song, go to their site, click on music and it is the second to last song on the first list. Awesome. Seriously. Go and listen to it. Right now. Hey, are you still reading this? Go listen. Do it.

Meet Rescue – Brian Sell, Jay McKenney, Jason Overstreet and Steve Cross.

This is one of my favorite shots. I said, “Everyone look up.” Almost everyone listened. (Hee hee.)

And a challenge for you….in the first paragraph of this post, I quoted a comedian, my favorite comedian in fact. It’s just thrown in there. If you can figure out the quote and who said it, email me the answer. First person wins a complimentary session. Just because.

You may remember this adorable face, she is and always will be “Squishy”. But she’s getting so big! She just celebrated her first birthday and I had the honor to photograph her and her family again.

Seriously so hard to pick just a few to show you, her eyes are incredible.

After chasing her outside, we went back to the studio for a little “cake smash”. She dug right in.

And apparently, frosting makes her pucker. SO CUTE!

I love this trio, they are just an absolute joy to photograph. And so easy to get the shots of them all together because they just adore one another. I would tell them to get closer and I would get this. SO fabulous.

Such a pleasure!

You know, I am really glad I am all done having babies. Because seeing these mamas to be who have these perfect little bellies, I would just get depressed because I always looked like a house when I was pregnant.

Isn’t she gorgeous? And so tiny. Oh…and no stretch marks. Um…not fair.

Beautiful. Just beautiful. And I cannot wait to photograph your little princess.
