no more cold weather.

I've decided not to think of it as cold weather, but as cute hat weather. :)

could they be any cuter?

The answer is no! And they were both so good with all the location changes and a new outfit at every stop. But I guarantee they did not have more fun than their mom and me.
Amy, your boys are just too adorable! I know Grandma and Papa are going to love these!

Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will lie under the stars and listen to your heartbeat...wait for the boy who kisses your forehead, who wants to show you off to the world when you are in sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends, who thinks you're just as pretty without makeup on. One who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares and how lucky he is to have YOU...The one who turns to his friends and says "That's her..." -author unknown





Johnna and Joey, thank you for taking me to The Wegde after your session. Oh my stars, that was some good food!

engagement session. johnna & joey.

My FAVORITE of the night. More to come.

sneak peek. mr. H

This little guy is a 13-month old sweetie. He loves his mommy and daddy, and they just adore him. I feel really blessed that I got to spend time with them, acting like a fool, trying everything to get a smile out of this guy. Definitely worth it!

i {heart} photography.

I took a photography workshop back in May, that was taught by Beth Jansen, Kelley Ryden and
Tracy Raver. So much fun. Thought I would share some of the adorable models with you.
Here is the first cutie we photographed. Her eyes were incredible.

personality x 2.

I had a session with these two cuties not too long ago, and I had so much fun with them. They were full of energy, and when they weren't hunting stray cats in the alley, they were giving me tons of personality for the camera.

Creed. part two.

Here's what you need to know about Creed: He's hilarious. He loves frozen hot chocolates and Skippy John Jones books. He sometimes speaks with British accent. He's kind to kids at school who might not have anyone else to play with. He calls me Mimi. He has a shirt that reads "I am fearfully and wonderfully made," and I think that describes him perfectly.

if there were ever a boy who had my heart...

family session

This was a fun family session from last summer. I can't wait to do another session with them soon, when this sweet boy will be two and little brother will be one.

Here's some more of this wild-haired girl I love.
