You hear that? Yeah that is the sound of me gloating. Yeah nah nah nah my clients are awesome and I am not afraid to rub it in.
I have been working with this family for a few years now and like a fine wine or a really spicy pickle they just keep getting better! From belly, to newborn, to chubby baby, to little dude Mr. Madden continues to get even more fun to work with, and his parents are pretty awesome too. For this years holiday session they left it up to me to choose a spot that would work. We had already done home & a natural setting, so for this one we went more edgy and urban. I LOVE it when clients just trust me to run with an idea! Amber did a great job dressing the family & showed up looking amazing as usual. It is great when an idea comes together. 
They were also super troopers that totally braved some crazy wind and sporadic rain. We were crossing our fingers all day, but it worked out beautifully.
So enough of my yapping eh, here are a few of my favorites so far:
they are so dang cute!
and Mr. M has gotten even cute. It is just ridiculous how adorable he is right.
and his parents are pretty nice to look at too. 
I love how Mr. M is a perfect mix of handsome daddy & beautiful mama here.
check out those good looking peeps
and this one might be my absolute FAV. It is like they are having their own little contest to see who can scrunch their nose the most. 
Anyone who knows Amber knows that when her nose is all scrunched up it means she is happy, I love that Madden is the same way.
he he he I could eat his little nose, so cute!
and one last set of the dashing little Mr. Madden. Oh I just love this kid!
Amber & Greg thanks for another year of radness! You guys are such troopers. I hope you love the peek. Much more in the whole gallery soon!

We don’t call it bribing in our house, we call it “incentives” lol.
While backing up files this week I realized that I had absolutely zero images of my little lady in my November 2009 file. Yikes! The situation had to be fixed immediately. So the kiddo and I headed out into the bluster sunday morning armed with my camera & her fashion sense.
Here are a few of my favs:
yeah, she is pretty cute. I am not bias at all.
This one is daddy’s favorite.
this one was art directed by the redhead. She told me this was her “rock n roll” move.
and this would be my favorite. Pure joy here.
ok maybe I take it back, maybe one of these is my favorite… Her goofy smile kills me.
my heart, it melted into a tiny puddle with this one.
so there you have it. My kid is a goofy, goofy cheese ball, no idea where she gets it from.

I don’t think there is anything more complimentary than being given as a gift.
You should remember the super adorable D family from just a few months back. Well Amy had a good friend about to have her own little one and thought a emily g gift certificate was in order. I was so excited to hear the news that my littlest client was born, and tried to wait patiently for the call. Really I tried! When I finally heard from Erica I was over joyed to meet the little guy! By this time he was 5 weeks old and a little more alert than your typical newborn, but really he was a great little model for me.
Here are a few of my favorites so far:
just look at those tiny toes and sparkly eyes. Just adorable!
and even a smile, I am pretty sure this one was for daddy. Or it could have been he was about to pee on me, who knows!
one thing Erica and I had in common is the love for the bare baby booty! Banks you may hate me when you are 16, but really I just had to.
after a little while the little dude tuckered out.
I just loved his perfect little mouth and button nose.
check him out all kicked back and relaxing. Such an angel boy.
he loves his hands by his face this one. Such a perfect little poser this one!
and of course I just had to wrangle mom & dad into the session as well! Check out how cute the entire family is.
and one last image from our session. Possibly my favorite. I love that little dude is the center of their universe, as it should be right now! This child is clearly loved.
Erica thanks again for having me out to your lovely home to meet your little dude. He is seriously adorable! I so enjoyed meeting all of you, and thanks again HUGE for including me in the Starbucks run. Dad you are a life saver!!! I will have much more for you to see very soon. I hope you enjoyed the little peek. And of course for all my new clients I would love to offer you a comment challenge. If you can get 30 people to comment on this little blog post I will hook you two up with 2 mini wallet brag books. Perfect for showing off a certain angel boy! So leave some love people.

You might remember Jamie’s adorable family from this past summer. You know summer, when the sun came out? Ahh good times. Well Jamie & family had me back out, and this time was a bit different. Not just the weather, but the whole session. This time around we set up a more laid back lifestyle session while Jamie’s brothers & father were in town. I came by to capture not just a few posted photos, but just them hanging out. Cooking, playing pool,
I had a great time getting to know the whole family for sure! These people are not only hilarious, but completely welcoming.We had a great time munching on food, playing games, and taking a few photos. Here are a few of my favorites so far.
You might notice little Mr. B is the real star of the show. He had all the ladies doing puzzles on the floor and making towers out of canned goods. He is quite the charmer I admit.
He also has some uncles wrapped around his little finger. But how could you not with a face like that right.
Mr. B might get some of his charm from this man. Grandpa is charming and sweet, and a total pool shark I learned!
when I first arrived it was super dark & rainy, but through the time I was there it did lighten up a bit. We ventured out for a bit with umbrella of course. These two lovebirds are from sunny Reno, NV so yeah we rocked the umbrella.
We also did quite a bit of cooking. Jamie was doing a little pre-thanksgiving set up for the family. At some point the topic of Desperate House Wives came up and we had to re-do the famous apple holding pose with the potatoes we had handy. These ladies are adorable.
we also talked a bit about phone addictions. Bryce’s uncle and I both love our crackberries, but he takes it to a whole new level.
and of course I had to get one of the whole family together. Seriously wonderful people here.
more uncle nephew love, yes indeed proof he did set down the blackberry!
and one last image of the little guy & star of the show. I just loved his reflection on the glass here.
Jamie thanks for having me out again to meet the whole family. You all were over the top wonderful to spend time with! I hope the rest of your visits were great and you all had safe travels back to Nevada. I hope you enjoyed the peek, I will have much more for you soon!
