This was one of my favorite shoots ever!
Taken this summer, they asked me to make a movie from their shoot...and of course I was happy to...this is my wonderful brother and wife...and they will be moving next door soon!

Loved this shoot....think taking pics in the snow isn't awesome...think again!

I loved this shoot!  Not only did the snow offer something new and the family was darling, but you should have felt the love this family had for each other! It can be hard to leave my family to go do a shoot, especially when James is home (which is hardly ever) but this family reminded me what a family should be.  Watching them also made me grateful for my own family. The kids were so kind to each other and you could tell they were really friends. And the parents! Every time I turned around from shooting one of their kids, they were hugging and cooing at each other. I couldn't decide whether to gag or to go throw my arms around them and say thank you! I went straight home and gave James the biggest hug ever.  In fact, we may or may not have gone a bit farther than that (wink! wink!) Thanks Cathy and Neil and kids! Can't you just feel the love through these pics!

New In-home Studio!

I will be opening my in-home studio in the next few weeks and I am excited! It will be a place you can come, not have to wait in line, and have a more enjoyable portrait experience. We will be able to get to know eachother a bit. I practiced this morning, thinking I could get a jumpstart on this little girl's one-year pics. She kills me...

Oh goodness! This kid drives me crazy, but I adore him!
