Isn’t she lovely?  Absolutely stunning!

More to come later!

Yes, I have been a total blog slacker lately, but I promise I have still been working hard, just not as hard as I was this past summer.   I’m enjoying my family time and watching my babies grow up.

I did promise you newborn pics, yes?  I am absolutely INFATUATED with this baby girl.  And when I say infatuated, I mean in LOVE.  <3  This baby girl is my bestest and oldest friend’s first child.  Lori and I went to school together, and really didn’t like each other—at ALL.  Then one day, we were just together.  And we never seperated.  Just like that.  She knows everything about me, my deepest secrets, hopes and fears.  We have survived her moving to Seattle for 5 years and me being in the Navy on the East Coast.  We even survived living together—but barely.   We survived us both getting married, me having children, and her living in South Carolina.  But now she is back in Michigan, with her husband and her new baby, and I selfishly couldn’t be more happy.  Lori, I’m so glad you are back in my life.  I love you and your new little family.

The new family….Chad, Lori and Baby Avery….

Meet Grace.  Grace’s mama arranged for me to do pictures of Grace and her grandparents…all the way from England.  I feel honored that she found me all the way over there!  This time is so special for this little girl, getting spoiled by her grandma and grandpa.  What an awesome family they are, you can see the love they have for each other and for Miss Grace, and hear it in their voices when they talked of Grace’s mama.  I’m so glad I got to be a part of this brief time in their lives!

Look at that laugh!!

I {heart} this…

Grandma and Grandpa also got some shots of themselves….such a great looking couple!  And TALL!  I felt like a midget next to them, I’ve always wished I was taller!

This was the very first time little girl had touched the sand.  <3 <3

The light was gorgeous that evening!

My fav <3

W family…thanks so much, I am so glad to finally have met you!!!  There is MUCH MUCH more to come!

This little boy was super tiny, so cute and VERY ALERT!  LOL!  He didn’t want to be nakie at all, and if he was, he had to be all snuggled up in a wrap or in some blankets.  Sooo no little nakie bum pictures for him!

This is how he was for most of the session:

But then he settled down in the cocoon and napped away…

( I think he was seriously thinking about something here, lol)

We did a few shots outside….he never flinched when we carried him out there!

My favorite…..he *hearts* his mommy….

Tricia and Paul, thank you so much for coming in to see me, I just loved every minute of it!!

The kids are such sweethearts, and were so incredibly GOOD.  I was amazed and the session went absolutely seamlessly.  Loved it!  The light was simply GORGEOUS!

The sweet, quiet kids.

I think Dad was really liking these shots….

LOVE this!

Thanks guys!

Ava absolutely LOVES her dress, and as you can see, we headed over to some friends horse farm to do her shoot.

ENJOY!
