Baby Gibson was an angel, and sister Avery is just perfection.  This is a huge photo overload, but I just had so many favorites, I had a hard time narrowing it down.  Enjoy! :)

Darcie….thank you so much for bringing in your beautiful baby boy to see me!  I loved every minute of it!  You have such a beautiful family….please bring them in to see me again soon!  <3

I thought I would be able to get this up before I left for my weekend workshop but I never got to sit down all weekend long, much less post anything! :D   Katie I am sorry to make you wait, but here is a little something to keep you tied over for a few more days.  Enjoy!

So I know I promised more blog posts but I promise you, I have been so busy….but it’s all good things. :)  Here is another blog post that I owe you, and it makes me so happy to share these images with you.  This beautiful, petite little mama is Jen.  Jen and I have known each other for a few years now, so I was elated when she contacted me to do her maternity and newborn photos.  She said she hadn’t had any photos taken at all while she’d been pregnant and I didn’t understand why….isn’t she just beautiful?  She looks AMAZING pregnant and these photos show off that sweet belly so well.  I get to meet her baby boy on SATURDAY already, since he was born just a couple of days ago…I am so excited. :D

Enough talking….meet Jen :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And one more…..just because ?

 

 

Isn’t she GORGEOUS????

Tom and Kristy brought Addie and Kara in 2 weeks ago for their birthday pictures.  I LOVE to photograph these girls….they are such good girls, full of smiles and have gorgeous eyes.  Happy Birthday A and K!!!

Ever heard of p90x?  It’s a psycho 90 day workout program.  Husband and I started doing it last week.  I don’t mind the workouts, not really.  It’s the diet!!!  I completely suck at dieting.  I get mad because I “can’t” have something.  Then it makes me want to eat it even more, LOL!  Justin has already lost 5 pounds….seriously, how does that happen?  He eats his 6 whole chickens (not really but seriously….you get a LOT of protein on this diet) and just drops the weight.  NOT FAIR. ;)  

So, that is what our life is looking like now.  Eating constantly and working out like a crazy person.  It does make it easier though when you have a partner, and I must say, it has been so great for the husband and I to do it together.  

A little announcement:  We have a baby planner package now!  If you are having a baby, please email me for pricing!

And….are you a fan on facebook?  No?  You should be!  Help us get to 500 fans, and when we hit 500, we’ll do a CONTEST!  Already a fan?  Spread the word! :)
