Emilia

 Emilia's family wanted to do outdoor

portraits, but her session was rained

out - TWICE!

 So, they decided to go ahead and bring her

into the studio.

 We got lots of nice smiles and

beautiful expressions!

 Of course, Emilia is a little angel

so smiles are to be expected!

But - I wanted a serious look, too!

When you smile, your eyes get scrunched and

Emilia has such beautiful eyes,

I wanted a shot to highlight them.

Just look at those eyes!

Aren't they beautiful?

And after this session - the sun decided

to make it's appearance, so we

did get to squeeze in an

outdoor session, too!

I'll share photos from that, soon!



Olivia's Accordian Mini

 This is Olivia's Accordian Mini!

I selected the Berry Berry Red cover

to go along with her little

lace petti-romper and

the fun dots background papers.

It is fun and unique

just like Olivia~!

I just love it!

Olivia's Photo Shoot

 Olivia was all smiles when

it was her turn to do pictures!

 But then, Olivia is normally

all smiles!

 She also tried to get others to

smile along with her as she is

doing here in a game of

Peek-A-Boo!

 Boo!

Are you smiling?

I call this girl "Smiley"

because she smiles so much!

But who can blame her.

With a smile so pretty it

makes sense to show it off!



Grace's Accordian Mini

 This is Grace's Accordian Mini! Isn't it adorable?

I just love the way it captures her personality

so sweetly!

When you flip it over, this is the

opposite side!

I selected the white moire cover

although I had my doubts,

but it is just BEAUTIFUL!



Grace's Photo Shoot

 After doing Brilyn's pictures and

making an accordian mini,

I wanted new pictures of Grace and Olivia, too!

 So here are a few of Grace!

 The borders are the designs I selected

to use on her accordian mini!

 With Grace's I did a pink page

and then a patterned page

and then a pink page

and then a patterned page

an so on!

It turned out REALLY cute!

Brilyn's Accordian Mini Album

I just love these little albums!

They're not actually album - albums. They're

accordian minis.

This first picture shows the design. There are

four pictures in the front and six in back

for a total of 10 photos.

You could even make collages if you wanted more.

 And the photo below is the final product.

It's a wallet sized, accordian booklet.

There are various cover choices and

pages can be designed any way you like.

They'd make great little stocking stuffers

or Christmas gifts for

grandparents!

ADORABLE!



Brilyn - 18 Months And Cute As Ever!

 Brilyn is getting big!

 She's now almost 18 Months Old

and as cute as she can possibly be!

 She's smart, too!

 And so much fun!

 When she was a little baby I wished she

could stay small... she was just sooooo sweet!

 And now that she's bigger, I think I'd still

like to keep her at the stage she's in

right now. She's just so fun!

 It seems that whatever stage she's in is the

best and I want it to last forever.

I guess that's loving her

just the way she is!



Cody & Kayla's Engagements

 This is Cody & Kayla!

 Don't they look like they belong together?

 I love it that they're COUNTRY!

 And while shooting I played a bit with lens

flares. I actually prefer pictures without lens flares,

but the lens flare gets twice the "likes" on

facebook, so it's what the general public likes!

Another lens flare, with a sun induced haze! 

And my favorite photo from the shoot!

What is it about these big round haybales and the

vivid blue sky that attracts me so much?

I just love this one!

And, I think it's going to be a COUNTRY Inspired

wedding, so hopefully there will

be some beautiful things to shoot!





Some Favorites From Amber's Wedding

 Here are a few of my favorites

from Amber & Marco's Wedding.

 She was a beautiful bride!

 I love the interaction between them.

 Aren't they just super cute?

 The details of her dress.

 Her dress... hanging from a beautiful chandilier.

I love the warm lighting.

A totally unposed candid of Amber getting ready!

Their beautiful rings!

This was a really fun wedding. There were

12 bride's maids and 12 groomsmen,

two flower girls and a ring bearer

and EVERYONE was easy

going and great to work with.

I totally enjoyed it!
