I was so glad to meet up with my friend, Andrea, and her gorgeous family for their annual portrait sessions!  These girls just get prettier and prettier each year.

I met up with this beautiful family Monday morning for a session with all the children and grandchildren.  I’ll admit, when I walked in the door and saw three boys ages 2,3 and 4 plus a 9 month old little girl, I thought I was going to have my work cut out for me!  But the boys were AMAZING!  They listened to everything I said and have some amazing blue eyes to boot!

Once the more posed images were taken care of, we just let the boys have fun!

I met up with this gorgeous family Sunday morning for a session and we finished just in time – - – the rain started on the drive home. :)

I have to give much kudos to the family for their outfit selections.  It really shows that you don’t all have to be dressed the same to look like a cohesive family unit.  In fact, I think it looks better when everyone is dressed differently.

This loving family braved the unbearable heat this week for a big family photo shoot!  What a great idea to have the whole family together in one photo.  Reminds me I really need to do this with my family.  :)

My best friend is just about ready to pop with her third boy and this is the first time she’s let me take her maternity pictures!  My husband and I were driving around a week ago looking at houses and I spotted this amazing field of daisies so we headed there to do the session.  The flowers were drying up, but we still got some great shots!  Look how great she looks (even at 38 weeks pregnant!).

This lovely family was the winner of my facebook contest a while back.  And I’d be willing to bet that the phrase “well, at least we didn’t have to pay for it” got mentioned in some form on the drive home.  ;)     Baby B did NOT want to smile — at all.  I don’t think I’ve ever met an 8 month old baby who wouldn’t smile for me.  And little C . . . well, he had his own agenda and it didn’t involve me or anything I was trying to talk to him about.  Thank goodness for big brother, A!  He’s just an all-around great kid.   I photographed Mom and Dad’s wedding three years ago and I love seeing how much their family has grown.  Andrew was born when they were only sixteen years old and it is a beautiful to see that they are still together and are such awesome parents.  :)

Rest assured, you guys, I did get some great shots! :)

Cutest. Family.  Ever.

I am SOOOOO far behind on blog posts!  My computer was at the doctor’s for most of the last week and to say I was lost without it is an understatement.  (Although, I have to admit, even though I didn’t get any editing done, I am a MUCH better mother and cleaner without the computer around).  But it’s back now, so here is two quick ones from my session last weekend.  These two little darlings are cousins, but could totally pass for twins!  You might recognize little K from her baby sister’s newborn session a couple of weeks ago or from her two year old session or from any of the other numerous times I photographed her during the first year of her life.  I love being able to document a family growing over the years.  And little Miss K and I are totally best buds now. :)

I met up with the wonderful M family on Saturday in Odessa.  It was crazy hot and not only did we have to deal with bugs, we also came across a SNAKE and a dead mouse!  Gross.  But this family was unfazed by it all — you can tell there is so much love in this family for each other.  :)

This time it was my turn to photograph the lovely Beira’s family.  I was so excited to meet her son – I’ve seen so many pictures of those big blue eyes and gorgeous smile!  The weather was perfect and we found some really neat little places to shoot in.  Of course, we were only about five minutes into the session when Micah took a tumble.

But after a little cuddling from Mom (and some fruit snacks), he was good as new.  Besides some images of the whole family, Beira also wanted some shots of her and Micah.  These are my favorite types of shots — you can practically hear the laughter and feel the love between these two.
