Ava is a 2 year old...

It is hard to believe that little Miss Ava is a 2 year old. We started documenting her life when she first entered the world. She is absolutely precious as you can clearly see from the pictures below. Ava's daddy has a blog for her that gives updates to family and friends. I truly enjoy his ability to blog. I get some good laughs every time I read it. On top of that, we truly value the friendship that we have developed with the three of them and look forward to more memories to come. :) Enjoy!















A little reward after being such a big girl for the camera!

Kierstin Paige is two...

We have known this precious little family for a number of years now and are truly blessed to be able to share a friendship with them. It had been a while since Kierstin had her pictures taken by 'yours truly' and talk about a fun session... Kierstin had many smiles to share and wasn't afraid to give them away. She was also very compliant to what I asked of her. :) Take a look below and see how much fun we had.





Swinging is so much fun!






Even busy little girls get tired...









On top of being friends, we have also connected with Darin and Lisa on a business level. They own the Higher Grounds coffee shop in the Geist area off of Olio Road...which you have to check out, especially if you have a coffee addiction. They also have live bands and amazing art hanging all around the shop. They have been gracious in allowing us to hang some of our prints in their shop which in return have opened the doors to some new and wonderful clients for us. Thanks guys! We love you!

Collin at 6 months...

It is hard to believe that this little guy is 6 months old! He is getting so big and even more adorable. The day of his session was definitely his day...nothing but smiles the entire time. His mom and I were getting so tickled when he would give a big smile and then put his hand in his mouth. Either way...cute shots. It wasn't until it was time to go home that he crashed and I had to grab a couple of shots of his "lovin' on mom" time. Enjoy!











Can you do this? ;)

Baby Joel is here...

What a story. First of all, I will try not to ramble, but there is a lot of information, so here goes. First of all, this session is of our new baby nephew, Joel. He was quite the special surprise and talk about adorable! Jeremy's brother and sister-n-law had tried to have children for several years and resorted to IVF which is how big brother Cale came into the world. For their second child, they thought they would try the natural way in hopes of it happening. Well, much to their surprise it did...and much sooner than they had planned. These two brothers will be about 14 months apart...wow!

Of course, these new moments were worth the documentation. They happened to be visiting for a long weekend, so we took advantage of the opportunity. Well, things didn't go exactly as planned. Baby Joel was a little out of sorts from his long travel and we thought it would be fun to get a picture of all of the grandkids (6 under the age of 5) for Grandma. All of the stimulation made for a long session. It worked out just fine...besides we had some time to catch up in the midst of the craziness. :)







These two shots make me laugh...smiles in one, chaos in the other...story of our night. :)
