Beth...Family Portraits

This morning I met Beth and her family for a portrait session. It was a lovely morning and the kids had a lot of fun running around and playing...so I ended up with a ton of favorites! Here we go...

Good looking family! :-)





Little Brooklyn isn't even quite 1 yet, but the girl was on the move! At all times!



Brandon and Bryce were more willing to just chill (at least some of the time)...









I just couldn't decide between the next two so you get both...





A little Brooklyn...





L-O-V-E this one...





Then some Bryce...







And finally some Brandon...







Cuties!











The kids had Brad working hard, plucking HUGE leaves from a tree...





Beth and her sweet kiddos...





This next one is just too adorable, cuteness overload. You may need to avert your eyes. ;-)





Thanks for the fun shoot! :-)

Legos, Monsters, and a Troublesome Toddler

There is currently a lego exhibit at Crown Center...very impressive stuff. I can't imagine the time involved. Some of my favs...







Probably my absolute favorite...



ALL legos. Wild.















However, we weren't at Crown Center for the legos. We were there to watch my niece perform in a play. A few pics of the kids hanging out beforehand...

My boy...



My girl...



Evey had a blast with the air vent...very Marilyn Monroe. ;-)



While Maddox played with his cousin Connor. No idea what they were doing but they sure seemed entertained...





I so wish I had her hair...





Then it was showtime. Elise was a member of the secret society of girls who like to make bracelets...or something like that...in a play called the Monster Hunters at the Coterie. :-P









What I saw of the play was very cute and funny. Unfortunately, my daughter is not of the age to sit quietly and enjoy a play. We didn't make it very long before I needed to exit with her so that others could enjoy the performance. So we wandered around Crown Center waiting for the rest of the family. At least I had my camera to help entertain myself...





The child can't sit still! What is the deal?! haha











She's lucky she's so stinkin' cute...

Walk About

It had been a long time...but Christie and I finally got together for another lunch and shoot. This time we headed to Westport...and we were joined by Christina and Anneka. It was so nice to hang out, talk shop, and then wander around shooting for the joy of it. It was so nice to shoot again, and I'm so happy to report that my hand did quite well! I'm finally on the road to recovery. :-)

So let's get to some of the random shots from the day!



This one sums up the afternoon. ;-)







LOVE...









For Becca... ;-)







For my door collection...













Thanks ladies! Looking forward to next time. :-)
