I had a blast with this family and all their adventurous little guys (and who can resist all those little towheaded boys?!) ! We spent the session traipsing through the woods on their property (where it was thankfully much cooler than the 100* out in the open!), and 6 year old {I} was a great location scout for the next photo spot 4 year old {A} was so proud of “Strangey” the rooster, of course I had to include a shot with him too!  To 8yo {J}, despite your best efforts not to give in, we do have a few with you and a real smile
Hope you enjoy your sneak peek, and I will get your gallery up as soon as I can!

Even though this one was before they realized I was snapping away, I LOVE their chemistry and facial expressions!  I would have guessed they were newlyweds instead of celebrating their 10th anniversary this weekend!  Happy 10 years!

Despite a few tumbles, a chilly wind, and my 7 month pregnant self losing horribly in a foot race with 6 1/2 year old {A}, the {G} family and I had a great afternoon downtown today!  These little ones have so much personality and such sweet parents, they were a joy to photograph!  Little brother and dad are going to have their work cut out for them, defending these girls from the swarm of boys sure to descend upon their house in a few years!  Mom is a magician with cakes– I can’t wait to call on her for one from her fabulous bakery

This is a supersized sneak peek– I couldn’t pick a favorite!

I had a great time meeting {J} downtown this afternoon to get some images for her loved ones to receive for Christmas!  She gave me a few knock knock jokes from her nephews to try out on my kids, and we had a great time chatting and shooting away

Enjoy your sneak peek {J}, and I will let you know when your gallery is ready!

A smile for the special man:

A serious one for the parents:

And a laugh for a knock knock joke (because we all know I can’t resist a good laughing picture!)!

I had so much fun at the stables today with this bunch!  The little guys, {L} and {J} had me cracking up the entire time!  The gallery will have some cameo apperances by the horses, they wanted desperately to be invovled too (we had the most fun with the one that nodded yes at everything we said!)!

Enjoy your sneak peeks, and I will let you know when your gallery is up!

Today I met with my daughter’s preschool teacher (I guess I should say “former”– Abbie graduated yesterday!) to capture some fabulous images for her family to enjoy! We had a great time, despite watching the sky every 2 min to make sure it wasn’t about to pour on us! Enjoy your sneak peek {A}, and I will let you know when your gallery goes up!

Well, even after last night’s storms we decided to brave the sogginess of the park for this morning’s session with {E} and {L} I’m so glad we did, I had a great time with these two girls and their fabulous parents! Little {L} was not having the most coordinated day of her short life, but once we figured out she LOVED to roar like a lion she recovered much more quickly from all her stumbles! {E} was such a great assistant once we were done with her pictures, I am seriously considering hiring her to be the official duck puppeteer!
Enjoy the sneak peeks mom & dad, and I will let you know when I have your gallery up!

(there was a lot of roaring going on in those woods!)

I may be biased, since I also have a 5 year old with an {A} name at home, but {A} was loads of fun today! We had a great time and got some great expressions to send to Daddy Don’t let the sneak peek fool you, she smiled a ton, I just haven’t edited those yet

(and 2 of these were {A}’s favorites, plus one of mine )

Had a blast with {N} today! He was full of fun expressions and had a great time dressing up in daddy’s clothes!
Hope mom likes your sneak peek {N}, and I hope you enjoyed your slushie after you left!

I had a great time with {H} this afternoon! She made some great faces and her wardrobe as “Queen of the Forest” was fun and totally 6 year old regal

I had so much fun with you today, I hope your mom enjoys your sneak peek!

I had a ton of fun exploring with {K} today! She is so full of spunk and she made my job really easy! Thanks for the “veggie soup” (puddle soup) {K} and tell your mommy I will let her know when the gallery is up!
