Tulgetske Family Session

Even though the summer sun and warm temperatures are fading away, we can all look forward to the beautiful fall colors.  I love this time of year for family photos....I think everyone looks so happy with autumn colors surrounding them and a warm glow of golden sun on their skin.  This past weekend I was fortunate enough to meet the Tulgetske family at their lovely home for their family session and even though it's early in the season, the colors were out just enough to make this shoot perfect. Here are just a few sneak peeks.... They were so much fun!

Kingston's 1 Year Old Photo Shoot

Now that the party has come and gone, and we've caught our breath from all the fun and festivities, we were able to sit little Kingston down (literally) for his 1 year old photo shoot.  It really doesn't get much cuter than this....

Bella's Princess Party | Part two

Who doesn't love to play dress-up!?  These little cuties had a blast dressing up in their favorite princess dresses and posing for the camera.  I'm pretty sure Bella and Kingston have the BEST birthday parties EVER!! I wonder how their mom will top these for next year..... ;)

Bella's Princess Party | Part One

Guess who's FOUR!!!  Yep, it's Bella!! Where in the world has the time gone? It seems like just yesterday that she was 6 months old.  Next thing I know she will be graduating from high school.... sorry Lorie.  Ha!  Bella had a princess pool party and shared it with her best friend, Emma, who also turned four.  It was so cute to see all the little girls running around in their fancy party dresses.  There was also a lot of princess dress up gowns for the photo booth...those pictures will come later.  Yep, just like Kingston's birthday party, this is a two part series.  ;)

Kingston's First Birthday Bash | Part Two - THE BOYS!!

Now, here are the CUTEST 1 year old's EVER!!  I felt like they deserved their own blog post because this whole bash was all for them anyway.  Kingston, Ryker and Jackson had a blast being the center of attention and smashing their birthday cakes.  I loved that they each had matching birthday shirts...who doesn't love a man in a tie!?  

Here's a few that are just adorable...

Kingston's First Birthday Bash | Part One - Photo Booth's

Kingston shared his first birthday bash with his cousins, Ryker and Jackson. The three of them were the cutest 1 year old's ever!!  Not only was there three little cakes to smash, the party was boomin' with a live piano playing rocker, bouncy house, photo booth props, and swimming in the pool!! 

I have sooo many great pictures to share, 

but right now I've compiled the photo booth pic's....  

Here's some of the fun, and the birthday boy's photos will soon follow. 

Stay tuned!!

A Year of Kingston

I have felt so honored to have documented Baby Kingston's first year of his life.  I was there for his first breath, every holiday and coming up soon, his first birthday party. (I can't wait for that!!)  He is just so precious and I look forward to watching this little prince grow up into a handsome young man.  I have seen his big sister, Bella, turn into a beautiful little girl and am just so elated that I have been chosen to be a part of the McCracken's most important moments.  You guys mean the world to me!!

The Bostrons | Family Session

Look at this beautiful family!! I'm really not sure how I luck into having the BEST looking clients ever, but hey, I'm not complaining.  It definitely makes my job easier.  These two little girls were just as cute as a bug, right Maddy!?  Maddy is five, and she is the sweetest little girl around.  Emma is five months old and steals your heart with her precious smile and those gorgeous blue eyes.  We battled some rain showers during our photo shoot, but we ended up with some really great shots.  Here are just a few of my favorites...

Laura + Darin | The Wedding

Over Memorial Day weekend I got to shoot my first wedding of the year! It was absolutely beautiful...the weather was perfect, the bride was gorgeous and the groom was dashing.  The venue was in the backyard of the groom's mother's house, which made the whole event laid back yet very intimate. Everyone had a great time and I was happy to have been a part of capturing Laura and Darin's special day.  Here are just a few of my favorite photos...

Austin | Senior 2014

Meet Austin.... He's a senior from Bruno-Pyatt that I was lucky to meet over the weekend.  He will be graduating Saturday and has a very bright future.  It was a lot of fun getting to know him and his mom during this senior shoot.   Both were up for anything and with a short car ride between locations, we were able to get some really great shots.  Here is a sneak peak of my favorites...
