Merry Christmas! It's Kingston!!

Well 2013 has been such a great year and what better way to see it out than with a SUPER DUPER cutie pie dressed up like Santa.  Mr. Kingston is 5 months old now and just as cute as the day he was born (remember that session from July!?). Before you know it, I'll be posting pictures of his first birthday!!  Gosh...time flies!  I was so happy to spend some time with Kingston.  He is such a good baby, smiling and cooing like crazy.  He makes my heart melt. :)  

The Oxfords | Family Session

I had a great shoot with the Oxford Family on Saturday afternoon.  The weather was nice and it was actually a little bit warm for this time of year...yay!  This family was so much fun.  Everyone had a great smile and the boys did such a great job.  Even the puppies posed for me!

Here are a few of my favorites...

The Staffords || Christmas Card Shoot

What? 32 degrees outside?? NO PROBLEM! The cold winter weather won't stop me from getting some great shots for a Christmas card.  Donna and Kevin and the kiddos were great sports when it came to getting out for a very quick session this afternoon.  I  must say, it was definitely the coldest and shortest session I have ever done, but very worth it. I'm sure Donna will have some great family photos to send out to her family and friends this year.  Here are a couple of my favorites from today...

Grant | Senior 2014

This year's weather just keeps working out for me!!  I was so happy that we had a nice warm day for Grant's senior pictures.  The clouds were so awesome...very gray and masculine. We went out to the old quarry where the scenery is perfect for a guy's photo session.  I still can't believe Grant is a senior this year...seems like only yesterday that he was a sixth grade boy running around the vet clinic. Oh how time flies.  Here are a few of my favorites from today's shoot...

{the Setzers} | fall session

Well, I was worried for a little bit that the fall colors weren't going to stick around for this fall session, but luckily, I was wrong. Yay!! The Setzer's were such a FUN family to take pictures of.  The kids were so cute and mom and dad...well, they were picture perfect!! We found this really gorgeous tree on the ASU-MH campus that was such a great backdrop for their family photos.  I'm super excited about these photos and I hope they are as well. Here are just a few (I have a LOT more) of my favorites....

Trakkar | He's ONE!!

A year ago today, my life changed forever.  It was the scariest, most wonderful day of my life and now, one year later, I couldn't possibly be happier.  I can't believe my baby is one year old today.  They all told me that time would fly by, but I wasn't prepared for just how fast they meant.  Trakkar has taught me so much about myself, life, patience, and unconditional love.  Its amazing to me that this little perfect blessing is the best part of me and his dad and I love him with every ounce of my being.  He is funny, smart, stubborn, loving, and I can't wait to see the man he will grow up to be....although I do wish time would just slow down a little bit. 

The Smith's

I was soooo happy when Wendy decided to chance her weekend on call and move her family photo session up a weekend in hopes to capture the beautiful fall colors.  I'd say it was a great decision!! Ben and Wendy also brought along one of the COOLEST photo props EVER!! It's not very often (or ever) that my clients bring along a vintage Chevrolet for their family photos.  It was an awesome addition for sure!! Their land was gorgeous and they don't know it yet, but I plan on stealing it for future photo sessions...haha! Here are a few of my favorites....

Cranfill Family Fall Photos

Another beautiful fall weekend, another beautiful family photo session!  This is the first session I've done with the Cranfill's since little Livie was just a newborn, so it was long overdue. ;) I can't believe she is going to be two already. And Morley...she's becoming such a beautiful little lady.  Time flies way too fast.  I loved hanging out with these two sweet girls and their mom and dad...and boy do they have a LOT of energy!! Between pumpkins, hayrides, tractors and a really cool barn, these guys  kept me on my toes...and it was SO much FUN!! Here are a few of my favorites....

Fall is here!

Fall is here and its fast becoming my favorite season for pictures, especially family pictures.  With the rich colors and crisp cool air, it makes outdoor sessions so beautiful!  Here's a sneak peak of the McCracken's fall family session from this past weekend.  This family is so fun and with the new addition of Kingston, I'm not sure if they can get any cuter!
