Baptism

My son was baptized last weekend.  It was an intensely joyful moment for our family.  Seeing him enter the water with his Dad and his smile after was a priceless memory that I will forever cherish.

Here's a couple quick shots we took the day of.  Unfortunately, we were running late and I didn't get to do the shoot I'd have liked to do.  Plus there were monsoon rains outside.  Oh well.  We weren't there for pictures, we were there for Ordinances.

The rain finally cleared and we took one more family picture...

Love the colors mom put together for this family.  Dad in the shoot and my husband played basketball in college together.  It was great getting to see each other and meet their kiddos!

I had a great time shooting this family.  They were super duper easy!  I love seeing the bond within a family and this family is full of love and kindness.

Welp, we're still here!

No change as of yet as far as moving goes.  The only change happening here is a new challenge I am taking.  More on that later.

For now, here's my recent shoot of my kids.  My boy is nearly 7 years and my girls are 4 years and 6 months.  Where has the time gone?

Another Year Gone By...

I can't believe I let a whole year slip away! Truth is, I had a very difficult pregnancy and had to eliminate the 'excess.'  Baby is here now and I am starting to get back into the groove of motherhood and life in general.  

Here's a little peek at last year's Christmas card:

I got so many compliments on our card this year and I have to thank Candra for designing this card.  If you are interested in any type of custom card, I highly recommend Candra.  Email her at shedesignscmb@gmail.com.

Also today is the Anniversary of marrying my best friend and the person who has always accepted me for me.  Happy 7th Anniversary to us.

Here's to 70 more together!

If there is anyone still reading this silly blog, thanks for sticking with me.  Let's see if I can get back on track.

Happy New Year!

Meet Tyler!

Oh, I'm so grateful that I get to do this!  Even better, this little guy belongs to my friend which means, I totally get to snuggle him and watch him grow!  

Isn't he handsome?

My Kiddies...

Picture day in our family is a dreaded event.  It's really the one day that I openly admit to bribing my children.  Given that we only do this a couple times a year, I'm convinced that it isn't doing too much damage.  If I can get these results every year, then I will continue using this strategy.  

I'd like to publicly thank my husband for being my assistant on this shoot.  

I couldn't have done it without him.

(gonna crop shoes out later, I think)

My favorite:

Love it when you get the feeling that you totally nailed a shot.  That's how I felt after this one but it's probably cuz these are my babes and I'm totally biased.

Fair Warning...

If I babysit for you, I might just shoot your baby.  You've been warned.

Meet Lucas!

I absolutely love getting to be a part of such tender moments in a growing family.  I get to go back for some family shots in a few days and I'm very excited.  Until then, here's a preview of this precious boy.
