Dominic {School year 11-12}

I take Dom's school pictures every year... this year seemed to be harder then normal. He has started to NOT want to look at the camera! So in the 3 hours it took us to do them, I only got a handful of usable images! Kids are such Turkeys... you would think he would know the routine by now! 
Hahahaha...

Jenna Lou {{Fall}}


 Jenna is a sweetheart! Her smile just melts my heart. Before she left yesterday she had to give me two hugs :) I have known Jenna since she was a baby, and it is unreal to think of her then and look at her now! She is growing into a beautiful young lady.



It is hard to believe Miss Jenna is 4 already! She will be heading off to Kindergarten next year. Where O where does the time go?!?
This shot was one of my MANY favorites from her session! She is just too darn cute!

 This next shot was another favorite! The chair is a new prop I bought from a friend this past weekend! I am in love with it, and cant wait to use it again! I have some great ideas for it!!


Jenna was in love with my rocking horse. I have had this since I was a baby! Makes for a pretty awesome prop if I do say so. This was one of the many times I couldn't get her to look at me :) Little stinker! But it worked out fine, still got a nice shot.


The whole time you are growing up and wishing you were older, you never stop to think about how much you will miss it all when you are an adult. I look at this adorable cutie, and it makes me wish I hadn't wanted to grow so fast! Enjoy your child hood Miss Jenna, it will be over far too quickly....


I take time out of my day everyday to just play with my kids. No matter how busy or hectic my day is. This is a very important thing I feel I must do. Kids are only little once, and I want to remember them like that for always!
  I love the smile on Her face in this picture, I feel it shows she is a very Happy 4 year old! Good job Mom and Dad!



I was kind of sad that most of the leaves are gone off the trees due to all the rain and wind we have had, but I still think this one does a good job of showing "Fall". ( Dont you just love the boots she is wearing?)


The light was gorgeous Sunday Morning, and Miss Jenna was enjoying throwing the leaves :) This is a great capture of Childhood!!


Mom Says this is a genuine Jenna smile! She is sooo Stinkin Cute!! I think this one is best in Black and white at capturing the moment!


She has some amazingly beautiful eyes! 

All in all Miss Jenna was a delight to photograph. This is one of many times I have done so. I can not wait to do more of her in the future! Keep smiling kiddo!

{{My kiddos}}

My kids are my Life, and without them, I do not know where I would be!


Dominic Is my oldest, and he is going to be 5 (where did the time go?) in December. Crazy to think it has been that long since I found out I was expecting my first baby. He is a very energetic Boy, and can have a major attitude! Which he gets from his Father by the way! He is my cuddle bug, and very sensitive! Now that he is in Pre-K, he thinks he is "too old" for a kiss from Mom in front of his friends! :( How sad is that? Cherish the time you have with your children, and take LOTS of pics, the grow too fast!

 Now Kyle, he is a Momma's Boy, and SUPER sensitive! He likes to tease his Brother, and knows how to push buttons. He just turned two this past July, and I think he is going to out grow is older Brother. He is "the" baby, but he is very smart for his age! Everyday he is finding and saying new words, and sentences!! Why do kids have to ever grow? Cant they stay little FOREVER??


You would think that for having a Mother who is a Photographer, they would be better and more cooperative when it comes to having their pictures done. NOT! It takes me at least two hours to do their pics, and MAYBE get 5 good pictures of them. Dominic hates to look at the Camera, and Kyle hates to sit still!

They are the sweetest boys you will ever meet! The have infectious smiles, and their hugs are so squishy and warm! I could not ask for more from them! (well, maybe to fight with each other less.) But other then that they are PERFECT!


{Haley}

What to say about little Miss Haley! well she sure is a Cutie, and she is a camera ham! I think she would have let me take pictures of her all day. I get to watch Miss Haley during the day while her Mommy and Daddy are working, and everday she asks when she gets to go in the studio again for more pictures. :) I guess that is something I will have to do again soon! Ha!
Haley is a little Diva! She is almost Always in a skirt or dress!
She is a hoot, and LOTS of fun to be around. She will put a HUGE smile on your face!
I enjoy taking pictures and trying new things. Haley makes a perfect little model, because listens when I tell her not to smile :) HAHA
She has the most Georges Eyes! You are B-E-A-utiful Miss Haley!

Lisa and her Kiddos

I had the privilege of photographing Lisa and her gorgeous Kiddos! I worked with them last summer, only difference this year is Lisa is EXPECTING! Congrats to her and her family on the expectancy of Baby Nyssiah! I can NOT wait to get my Hands on him when he is born!


Her Kids are beautiful, and great little helpers. Sammy, the youngest (for now) Is a little cutie, and very silly. She loves to have photo taken!

I enjoy taking photos of this Family VERY much!

Isn't she GORGEOUS! She will be a heart-breaker! Look out boys!
Mom is GLOWING, and looking more beautiful everyday!
All in all this was a GREAT session and I hope the family is pleased with the outcome. Cant wait to meet baby Nyssiah, Lisa!
