greatest grands

What a very special family!  I adore this group of people and am enamored by the bond they have with each other.  My connection to this family began 10 years ago; Julie (cute redhead mom) and I were brand new (twin) moms together and spent many hours walking the mall and picnicing at the Arboretum.  This session is in honor of her parents' 50th anniversary.  Congratulations, Judy and John and enjoy the sneak peek, there are many more!

beach sunset

What a delightfully fun family!  We were treated to a gorgeous evening with a cool breeze and a stunning sunset and everyone was on their very best behavior (even Nick!)  I loved getting to know each one of you and hope that our paths cross again in Indian Pass soon.  Enjoy the sneak peeks!

my girl

My little girl will soon be 8.  Sometimes she acts more like a teenager than a little girl but she's got lots of gusto (a word we discussed at breakfast this morning) and plenty of pure joy for life.  I love the new haircut and although she can be quite spirited, I adore and admire the beautiful young lady she is becoming.

three years old

Funny, sweet and mighty precocious is this beautiful three year old girl, Ella.  She loves swimming, soccer shoes and playing basketball - but not bows!  She knows what she wants and with that precious smile and sparkling eyes, it's hard to deny her.  Thank you A&E for a fun adventure this morning.  Happy 3rd Birthday, Ella!

brand new

Meet Claire.  At 8 days old, she's the newest member to this beautiful family.  They were wonderfully surprised that she was a girl and she was gladly welcomed by all.  I enjoyed spending the afternoon with all of you, hope you enjoy these few sneak peeks!

a graduate

This beautiful young lady braved the heat to do senior portraits with her cap and gown.  She had a smile on her face the whole time and never once complained about the heat!  S, you have a wonderful, happy and sweet spirit, you will go far in life.  I really enjoyed getting to know you and wish you well in your college journey!

Baby Elijah

Meet Eli, an absolutely perfect and beautiful baby boy (and my great nephew!)  I made a quick trip to Louisiana to meet him and take some pictures and he did awesome at just 12 days old.  Thanks for sharing him with me and I can't wait to see you all again in a few weeks!
