family farm

i really, really loved this session. not only was this an awesome location, but i loved that it was so special to this family. i could tell that lots of special memories were made here. the kids were as cute as can be running around, exploring, and driving the tractor. to top it all off...i got to go on a hayride. what could be more fun that that!

senior

so let's face it....guys don't love to have their pictures taken. but i do have to say, this guy was a good sport. he didn't complain once and i definitely dragged him all around the streets and alleys downtown. he was also super nice and on his way to college the next week....so not really a senior anymore!

another family get together

i got to be there to take some pictures for this family while everyone was in town visiting. i really enjoyed these kids. the oldest was all about posing for the camera and it was cracking me up! this little baby girl couldn't have been sweeter. she was so happy and full of smiles. i think this little guy may have been a bit tired, but once he got on the slide, he was as happy as can be. no wonder their parents and grandparents are so proud!









i just love this one!

what a difference a year makes!

this was the very first family that i took photos for a little over a year ago when i embarked on this journey. so this session was special for me. i loved seeing how much these kids had grown up and changed. this little boy was still full of life, but this time his big sister was running around right beside him.

workin' the farm

after having to reschedule because of rain, i finally got to meet up with this family. it couldn't have been a more beautiful day....and these kiddos were so sweet! i was blown away by this little boy's imagination. we were workin' the farm, playing with the cows, chickens, roosters, you name it! and his little sister...absolutely beautiful. i just loved the way she followed her big brother around. lots of love and such a sweet family. here's just a few!

cutie

everything about this session just fell into place....gorgeous family, awesome location, and just a beautiful evening. i love doing sessions that are comfortable for little ones, and you could just tell how much this little boy loved being in his yard. tons of room to play and run, and let me tell you, he was quick! i really did have fun chasing after him and catching him when i could. and check him out....such a cutie!

beautiful family

this family has been having their pictures made every couple years for years. it's an amazing collection of black and white prints, and i was really excited to be asked to add to the collection. this family couldn't have been any easier to work with and couldn't have been more beautiful!










and i couldn't leave out their dog...miss ruby!

change

so after a little over a year of doing sessions for free, i have decided it's time to start charging a session fee. starting september 1st, sessions will be $50. but....along with this change is some GOOD NEWS!!! if you schedule your session before this date, no matter when the session is(through 2009), the $50 fee will not apply. so...if you are thinking about a session or know anyone that might want a session, schedule now!!
