One Whole Year

Mr O has arrived at the ripe old age of 1 already.  To celebrate this momentous occasion, we took just a few pictures.  He did all of this and more in just 25 minutes.  He owns me with those baby blues.

Celebrate All Things Feminine

Today I honor these women and what they mean to me.  My Mother and Aunt are examples of all I hope to become.  They are kind, loving, hard-working, cheerful, efficient, loyal, accomplished cooks, faithful, disciplined, clean, organized, intelligent, talented, honest, resilient, and most of all they love me in spite of all my short-comings.  Aren't I lucky! 

Happy Mother's and Favorite Aunt's Day.  I love you both.

Sarah's Request

My sister called and ask I get this done asap.  I did a color option and a vintage option for her to choose from.  This is my favorite.

Wishing They Were Mine

Decided to drive over to Holland for the Tulip Festival with some friends.  I was not disappointed.  So many lovely tulip gardens, so little time!

  

More Miss A

I used the paint brush technique again.  Isn't she purty!  You can find flowers like this if you click here.

Just a Little Bit Photogenic

I had such a fun and fast session with this cute couple.  Miss M kept telling me she wasn't photogenic.  Um.....okay!  I'll just let these images speak for themselves.  Beautiful.

 

Spring

Warm is good.

Just Another Taste

I have been hard at work on several sets of pictures.  I just fell in love with these images and wanted to post them for her mother to see.

More Addy

Couldn't resist the Old Skool action.  I have a penchant for vintage-like photos.  Flowers like this one on Addy can be found here.

Miss Addy

This little love melted my heart.....and not just because she allowed me to be an auntie for the 11th time. She is so sweet and so compliant with all the desires of a photographer's heart. I am just prepping her for the rest of her life. She will have to endure many photo sessions over the next 20 years at least! Flowers like the red one on Addy's sweet bald head can be found here.

Family Photo In Just Three

In order to obtain what I like to call my mandatory request for a family picture, I promise to only take three shots. Even though my brother-in-law says the only thing mandatory for him is "paying taxes and dying", it seems like we did okay. Even the kids are looking. I know....they've had too much practice already. I am not apologizing.

Sneak Peak

Oh My Goodness

I just can't believe the variety of photos this little lovey provided for me in under two hours. She knocked this session out of the ballpark. I am always amazed at how much she has grown.

She Has Arrived

Little Miss Addy, who just made me a self-proclaimed favorite aunt for the 11th time, arrived today.  She was 8 lbs 4 oz and 19.5 in long.  Stay tuned for some adorable photos.

She's A National Champion

This little one took first place in her national karate tournament last night.  Proud doesn't describe how I feel.  Congratulations Megs!!  I love you and the rest of my nieces and nephews more than is possible to explain.
