Almost two years ago, Britton got Brandi a fun just-because-session for Christmas, and I took their pictures back when they were dating and whatnot. Now, they’re engaged!! It’s so fun to see couples grow and celebrate something so exciting!

Yet another sweet family. This time, cuteness x 2.

Woowooo another Mini Session! I’m getting this whole working-during-Cooper’s-nap thing down. Laundry, dishes, and cooking can wait until later, right? ;)

Once again, another sweet family I’ve photographed twice before… Let me tell you what’s weird. When I start thinking about how I took their pictures last year… and then I start realizing how much bigger their youngest is… and he’s walking! and talking! And then I start getting excited for those big milestones in Cooper’s life. But then it hits me how fast it’s all going to go. I guess there’s a reason why everyone says, “you better enjoy it – it goes fast.” Yeah yeah…Let’s stop talking about that business.

Anywhoooo. Pictures!

Have I mentioned that I loooove getting to see and photograph the same families every year?! Here is their session from last year. Cute cute cute.

Here’s their mini session from the other day. Aren’t they precious??

I’ve been photographing this guys for a couple years now, and it’s been so fun to see their family go from two to three. We were actually in the same child birth class… haha love it! Their little one wasn’t feeling too great the night of our shoot, but she sure powered through and was cute as can be.

Ohhh such a sweet family! It was such perfect time with the Greshams… lovely weather, precious baby, and enjoyable company. Heidi told me how important this session was to her because she’s always the picture taker… I can totally relate :) So it made me even more excited to capture their family.

It’s time to start talking about this Christmas Card stuff.

I do love me some Mini Sessions. It’s like the perfect 30-minute time slot that captures your family, and it makes it so easy to share with friends and family… you know, via Christmas Cards.

Here are some samples of the cards I’m offering this year. All text and colors can be changed, and cards are printed on high quality, 5×7, double-sided card stock.

Ohhh what a sweet boy Owen is. He was such a little champ, and was up for anything (as if he had a choice… haha)

happy little red raider :)

The thought of summing up Cooper’s first six months kind of made my head explode… almost. I started putting pictures in a folder for this blog post, and after I hit about picture number 30, I realized maybe I shouldn’t go that route. I took some pictures of Coop today and decided I’ll just share those, instead of my entire hard drive… :)

All I gotta say is that I love being a mom. It’s the best. And this little guy wins my heart over every day.

okay this is hilarious. this was one of Jordan’s outfits when he was a baby… HAHA!

Deuce still isn’t too sure what to think about Coop, but I think they’re starting to have a special little bond… ohhh whatever. Deuce just wants to eat his diaper.

Cooper’s i’m-making-some-craazzyy-noises face, and of course his little bum.
