Evan

Taking a break from babies and families to post a senior! Evan is graduating in just a couple of months, so we had to get going on those senior pics. I have to say that Evan is one of the most polite high school boys that I've met and that's coming from a former high school teacher.

We met up at Forest Park and wow, was it crowded this Sunday. We had to fight for parking spots, but we made it work. Here is Evan...












Hope you like them, Evan!

Baby Drew

This little one was such a sweet little boy and very sleepy for 13 days old the day of his photoshoot!

This hat and blanket were made by his great aunt! (Hope I got that right...)






Staredown!


LOVE this smile...

A basket in his bedroom...

Just cuddling with Daddy when we were all done...in case you didn't know, photoshoots are tiring!!


Congratulations, L and A! Such a beautiful little boy!

Walker's Birth

When you think back at some of the most significant moments of your life, one of the prominent ones has got to be the birth of your children. I had a unique opportunity to capture that in photos for Dan and Alisha recently with the birth of Walker. With their permission, here is their birth story...

(I could go on and on about the experience, but I'll let the pictures tell the story this time!)

Jonah is ONE!

Jonah's photo below on top of the piano has been one of my most commented on photos that I've ever taken...


I was so excited to meet up with his little family again shortly after his first birthday!

We started off with photos of Jonah is his present from his grandpa--a rocking chair that had been his. I love it when we are able to incorporate meaningful objects into photos...

Such a great smile!




Love those brown eyes!











Thanks, Anne and Ryan for meeting me in the park for a lovely evening :) I know that this little guy is such a blessing to you and I'm so glad we could capture that in photos!

The T family

This family was my first session with my new camera! I've shot the Kiefers a couple of times now and it was great to be able to have not just them, but their extended family together too! They were all in town for a basketball tournament and thankfully, brought no hard feelings after a close game the day before with family on opposite sides. :)

First off, here is the four grandchildren...

And the whole group! I was glad we were able to fit everyone in because we were inside on a COLD day!





Love this one (as a mom of two boys myself!)



I think these two kids get cuter every time I see them!




Thanks, T Family!
