Jalena Jalena Jalena

As a mother, I know how extremely disheartening it can be to give birth to a completely gorgeous child only to find out that this child has absolutely no interest in having their picture taken.  Let's face it, not everyone likes to have their picture taken, especially 3 year olds.  I know because I have a 3 year old myself.  The beautiful Jalena was, like most 3 year olds, more interested in having fun, at the park, than having her photo taken.  Her mother, Leah, and I, forged ahead, and I think with our combined efforts, we pulled off some pretty decent pictures.

A Repeat Performance from Hudson

Even in the heat and humidity of one the hottest recorded summers, Hudson gave another stellar performance, as the subject of my latest photo session.  What can I say, the boy is beautiful.  Enjoy!

Hot Mama!

I entitled this post "Hot Mama!" for two reasons.  #1 The day of the photo session was extremely hot, even though our session was in the morning.  Raven, Michael, and myself were quite sweaty by the end of the shoot. #2 The mother to be is HOT!  I mean she is absolutely stunning.  Isn't she? 

I had such a wonderful time taking and editing these pictures.  These may be some of my favorite shots to date.  Thanks so much for contacting my, Raven!

Brady's Bunch

Brady and Kristen have come a long way and have created a beautiful family together, in the7 years it's been since I've last seen them.  Kristen is a friend and former co-worker of mine.  We used to work at a local daycare together, while I was in college.  It was during that time that her and Brady had just started their little family of three, with their oldest, Hayley.  Brady was serving in the military, while Kristen got broken in quickly to the life of mommy-hood.  This is not an easy time for any young couple.

It was wonderful to see that this young family had grown not only in size, but in quantity.  I am very grateful to Brady and his bunch for their sacrifice as a military family.  I had a wonderful day with this fantastic family, and I hope to see them again, in the future.  Thanks!
