    It’s still summer… but I am dreaming about the fall!

    fallspecial

    It is August, it is still summer I know, but my brain is thinking FALL! I love the fall, the colors, the hats,  the smells, the crisp sweater weather, I love it all! Yumm pumpkin pie… drool.

    Another thing that has me dreaming of the fall is my calender. September, October & early November are typically my busy times for kids & family photos. All of you lovely folks want photos for gifts & holiday cards. I am starting to get calls now (I know it is summer but people plan ahead!) for fall dates and they are starting to fill up fast. I am half booked for September & October already, and I usually keep my November dates for rain reschedules & holiday printing deadlines.

    So lovely blog readers, if you would like some beautiful family photos or kiddo pics call or email me now to reserve your spot. Once I am full I would hate to turn some of my regular clients away. Remember repeat clients get session fee discounts and referal credits. :)

    Call or email me asap!

    M&M are married!

    If you are a long time blog reader you might remember Micah & Micah from their adorable engagement session last October. Man that was a long time ago, but I still love that session. Ever since working with these two the first time I have been looking forward to their late July wedding. After talking over the details I was so excited to see it all come together! Well they did not disappoint. Every detail of this wedding was beautiful & well thought out. I had a lovely time not only with these two, but with their entire families.

    So here are a few of my favorites so far, this is only the first of a few posts. :) Way too much good stuff to keep it to one post!

    Take a look:

    Micha’s dress was over the top stunning, made even more beautiful by some family heirloom jewelry.

    brideready

    to say she was a beautiful bride is an understatement.

    groomprep

    our groom was also quite dashing in his own right.

    groomlaugh

    He also has the best time. I think here I asked him to do something GQ and ended up cracking him up. :) yeah that was the plan all along anyway.

    firstlookMM

    Their first look was also fantastic. They were literally giddy with anticipation. You can tell these two are so perfect together.

    Check out those smiles.

    bambooset

    M&M’s wedding venue has the most beautiful bamboo trees on the grounds. I just loved the way they let through just the right amount of light for us.

    I have lots lots more to show you all! I have a feeling we will be hooking up a slide show to show off all the beautiful images required to do it right. M&M I hope you are having an amazing honeymoon in Europe! I can not wait to hear all about it. Enjoy your peek, the whole gallery will be up soon!

    Baby G on the go!

    Yes indeed it is yet another adorable little boy on the blog this week. I am so lucky to get to spend time with these cute little guys! Meet baby G. This little guy make me work for the session, no doubt about it, but his cute mug is so very worth it. We hung out last Sunday when the weather was still blazing and has some fun in the sun, man he was on the go. Mr. G was not quite sure about me, but I did manage to capture some cute smiles and some delicious dimples.

    Anyway enough talk, on to the photos! Here are a few of my favorites so far:

    swingset

    Little G is lucky enough to have an auntie who owns a beautiful working farm near his home. We spent most of the session tromping around playing with shovels and throwing hay. I love this old swing. He is still a little small to do it on his own, but cute none the less.

    babygrant-18

    such a serious little dude. Oh so interested in all the goings on of the farm. I am pretty sure here he is intently watching grandpa use the loud saw.

    hayset

    farm boy :)

    horseset

    we even got him on the horse! Don’t you worry mama was on the other side holding him still. He LOVED being on the big beast, I am so impressed. I think my daughter would have been completely freaked out.

    smileset

    Check it we caught a smile! and those dimples, ugh to die for dimples.

    babygrant-36

    and one more of the cute smile &  dimples for good measure. He is such a cutie!

    Mom & Dad thanks again for contacting me to arrange the session. I had a lovely time working with all of you! Your little man is such a sweet boy. I will of course have the whole set for you very soon. In the mean time hows about a little comment challenge. I know you found me via one of these, so you must have your own! If you can get 30 people to leave a comment on this little post i will throw in a couple mini wallet brag books on me! So leave some love folks!

    the charming little traveler…

    Once again I need to thank Mr. Google for bringing me the following adorable family.  The ever so charming Mr. S is 6 months old and over the top adorable! He is a tad small for his age as he made his entrance into this world a bit early, but what he lacks in size he more than makes up for in character. Seriously this little dude is such a charmer, I am so looking forward to seeing him grow up over the next year, and hearing about his first big adventure traveling. This little guy and family are heading off to Turkey at the end of the month, sounds like a long plane ride, but a fun trip to visit friends and family. I am sure with his stunning eyes and smile he will be charm his way in to every one’s hearts.

    So on to the photos! We had a great time playing around the beautifully decorated living room and front yard.

    Here are a few of my favs so far:

    couchset

    Look at that face, I wanted to just eat him up.

    babyNum-11

    itsy, bitys baby toes. :)

    babyNum-18

    check out that gummy smile! ahhhh I dare you not to smile back.

    babyNum-19

    I am pretty sure this look of love what not for me, but a certain pretty mama behind me and to the left. Someone only has eyes for mama.

    playset

    I love it when baby’s just ignore me and play. You get a chance to really see their personality. This little guy was all about the wiggly toes. Cracks me up, oh that ages goes so quickly.

    babyNum-23BW

    Poor little dude is currently battling molars, but still smiling! I just love his eyes here.

    babyNum-27

    and the whole family! Aren’t they sweet.

    babyNum-30b

    We also got grandma in on the action. Seriously this little guy has no shortage of love in his life.

    mam

    some more love from mama.

    babyNum-35

    and of course daddy too.

    babyNum-36b

    just one more of the whole family loving on Mr. S. Lucky, lucky little man.

    Jessica, thanks again for contacting me to come capture your darling family.  Your little guy is absolutely a love. I had a great time in your beautiful home. I am so looking forward to watching him grow this year! I will have the whole set for you very, very soon. I want you have everything you need for your travels. And of course as a new client I want to offer you a little comment challenge. If you can get 30 people to comment on this post I will throw in two of the little mini wallet brag books you liked so much. So leave some love folks. :)
