Baby Claire

Well, Adam and Marie had their baby! Claire is just the cutest thing! She was such a good baby for this photo shoot. The only thing she didn't like was laying on top of the books. I was very impressed at her attention span!

Love those wrinkles.

How cute are those pink pumpkins?! What a fantastic idea to welcome home a baby. I'll have to remember that idea!
Such a beautiful family.



Adam's mom found these little pink scrubs for Claire. I'm obsessed!
Congrats Adam and Marie. Claire is beautiful and she may have made me just a little bit baby hungry! :)

More of the Engaged

It's been a while, but here are some more of Kelly and Vince.



I was really pleased with this shoot! I love how the pictures turned out. What a fun couple!

Engagements

This couple was so much fun to work with! Kelly and Vince found my ad on craigslist and asked me to do their engagements. I was happy to oblige. They are getting married next month! Here is just a sneak peek at some of my favorites.



Aren't they a fun couple?! Don't worry, there will be more to come...

Surprise

This family wanted to get family pictures to surprise their mom/mother-in-law for her 50th birthday. They turned out great and I think their mom will love it!

Here are a few of my favorites...


Cute Mikaela giving a cute pose for her upcoming birthday. Don't you love that tutu?!
What a great gift for a 50th birthday!

Cooks

It has been a busy photo week, but I love it!

I got to take pictures for this adorable family... They are in our ward at church and will be moving in a couple of days. Sad.



Handsome Connor

Blue-eyed McKenna. Her eyes are such a gorgeous blue. I didn't do anything to the color of them when I edited- they are that blue!

They are all so photogenic! It was fun to explore Notre Dame campus a bit more with them. They showed me some cool places I hadn't seen before.

Thanks Cook family for letting me take your family pictures. I had a blast and wish you all the best with your new job and new adventure!

Maternity

Some will argue, but I think there is nothing better than being pregnant! It's such an exciting time. I was thrilled when our friends' and Bryan's co-worker, the Houghtons, asked me to do some maternity shots. They are expecting a baby girl next month and Marie looks great! Marie was nice enough to use her skills as a speech therapist on Chloe this summer so we did a trade and I got to take photos of them! After taking photos of kids all the time, these guys were easy!

I love that they added a little personality and humor to some shots!






Thanks Adam and Marie. I had so much fun! I can't wait until that little girl arrives.

Peaches

Mikaela had a blast at the peach orchard! It was great to pick while we took pictures. We got some really cute shots of her!

I took my kids with me and got some shots of them too. I'll post as soon as they are edited!

18 Months and Growing

I have done a few pictures of Mikaela and it's so fun to see her grow up. She was a busy little girl, but that's to be expected!

Mikaela did so great! I hope I captured the curious girl that she is. She couldn't get enough of the flowers and rocks! She is such a doll.
