It was a crazy afternoon when we photographed the Schendle Family. Apparently the Schendle kids were being whirling dervishes prior to the shoot but you would never know it when my camera came out and it was time to shoot. Jean couldn’t take a bad picture if she had the flu so I was so loving these of her and the kids. . .

It always amazes me when I photograph a family with more than 3 children. For some amazing reason the moms with 4+ kids are calmer and have things under control more than you would think. Jen is no exception. She had her adorable kids laughing and posing like we wanted, and still was calm and enjoying the shoot herself. Kudos to you, Jen! Funniest moment, her eldest son found someone’s running shoe and sock in the bushes. We were a little unsure what else this little CSI agent might uncover!

This was one of the prettiest set of sisters I’ve photographed and good gracious how cute is baby sister? I loved how she so looked up to her big sis during their session.

What a blessing to have captured sweet Grace as she’s grown from a newborn to a full fledged toddler this year! One thing that hasn’t changed is the tremendous love and happiness her parents share with her. I have loved each session. Happy Birthday Grace! You’re an old pro now!

Hi friends and clients! I can’t believe my three months at home with Charlotte has passed so quickly! Here are some sweet shots of her today. My baby girl has some feeding issues that we are working out so my schedule is not as packed as usual for Christmas to allow me more time with work with her on this. I am back to work this week photographing the precious kiddos at UPUMC School. It’s been a fun two weeks! Amidst some great nose-picking shots we’ve got many beautiful portraits. I can’t wait to show the parents in the next couple weeks! In the meantime I’ll post this one of my daughter Eloise flirting with one of her fellow students. . .

After a long hot summer, and longer harder pregnancy, I am so excited to show off Charlotte’s first photo session. My other kiddos can’t get enough of her! Our new baby is never short of kisses from her older siblings. I look forward to seeing all of my favorite clients when I’m back in the studio in October! See you all soon!

Had a great time photographing these adorable applique T-shirts for Modern Frills Clothing. The fabrics are so vintage; love it! All our models were first timers and did such an amazing job. I was so proud of all of them!  I fell in love with about 6 designs that were modeled, for my own kids. Check out her site at: www.modernfrills.com.

Isn’t he gorgeous? He was such a treat to photograph. Stayed in a lovely slumber pretty much the whole time.

It has been a blessing to photograph sweet Isla at each of her special stages of growth this year. She has changed so much! This was such a fun session, she could not stop giggling and smiling, so of course her parents and I couldn’t stop either! So much fun to photograph you Isla!!

Had the best time photographing Miss Charlotte and family! Mom and Dad were as cool as cucumbers sipping wine and laughing the whole time. That’s my kind of family! They made me relaxed and they were the ones with the newborn!
