The Little Things In Life.

This image is from one of my sessions this week. I just love this one! Isn't it always the little things in life that get us?

Timeless...

Indoor Fun!

Hello Bloggers, it has been a little while since my last post, but here I am again. This weekend was my session with Miss B. I held a session with her sister earlier this summer. And even though they have a lot of the same features, their looks are quite different. Miss B. walked into the studio with a little grin on her face since she already knew how things worked. I could tell she had the session all planned out. She was so cute with her hair and make-up done. I couldn't wait to get started! As I am photographing her, I am realizing that the same poses I did for her sister were working for her as well. That has never happened to me before, and so I tried mixing it up a bit. I love the images with her hood. She looks like a model! Miss B. you worked the camera!

I have two maternity sessions and a family session coming up. Don't forget to keep an eye out for them.

Signing out...

Puppy Love

OK guys, I just had to sneak these images in quickly before I head off to bed. These are so cute that I couldn't wait to post them. On Sunday we went out to the park and even though it was a little chilly, I had a blast. This couple is SO in love and silly together. Even though we wanted a little privacy in the park, we soon learned that it was not going to happen. They were the center of attention and everyone loved them. And the dogs are TOO cute... wouldn't you agree? Oh, I fell in love with them. They are just adorable. It was nice hanging out with you guys.

Until next time...

Hands Down

Hello again fellow bloggers. What a beautiful weekend we had. Ah, it was so nice to be out photographing and taking advantage of the sun. OK hands down, this session was the cutest! If I could have posted all their images on here I would have. There is so much love and interaction between the family and little Z is simply full of life. Her curiosity and excitement for everything and anything was a joy to see. Children really do appreciate our world and they love exploring by touching, smelling, and yes... tasting. I know there were a few things her parents did not want her to put in her mouth, but we were not quick enough. : ) You know, photographing children is about getting down on their level and seeing what they are experiencing. It is refreshing to see life like they do and it makes me feel like a kid again. As adults we are here to show children how to grow up in this world, but isn't it funny how they show us how to do the same thing?

See you soon. I still have yesterday's session to post with the sweetest couple and their cute little doggies...

Moving On

As many of you know, we were stationed here in Germany with the ARMY in 2001. We have been here for most of my husband's military career. Now after 8 years of service we are now officially an ARMY veteran family. Because of our military experience, I have grown to appreciate military service men and women as well as their families. This is not an easy life. But you manage to work and sacrifice for the good of our country and that is special. Last week was his last week of duty and once again "Of course I had to take pictures!" As we move on to a different chapter in our lives, we will never forget this time. Baby, I am so proud of your service and I love you very much. Here's to you and I look forward to many more years...

Shining Through

You don't have to look far for the free gifts in life. Isn't it amazing how you can look at an image like this and feel hope, inspiration, renewal and love all at the same time? Well that is what I felt when I saw this cloud. I just closed my eyes and took a deep breath. These are moments worth living for. This shot was taken from my backyard (and edited in photoshop).

The Fall Boys

Last Friday the boys and I went outside for a little Fall cleanup. They were having so much fun that I had to photograph them. Plus, who doesn't want pictures of their babies playing in the leaves? We were having a blast until they started fighting over the same pile. One wanted to jump in the leaves and the other wanted to throw them. And taking turns was not an option that day. So, mommy had to make two piles, and as you can see J started raking on his own... too cute! Enjoy these and I hope everyone is staying warm in the cold weather.
