Makenzie

Meet sweet Makenzie! She was another guest at the portrait party that I immediately made friends with. She is such a CUTE and sweet little girl! I had already heard about how cute her wardrobe was, and she didn't disappoint. She was a great subject to shoot, and I loved how her images turned out! Thanks Jennifer! I hope you enjoy them!

Isn't she CUTE?!?


I think this one is my favorite!





Look at those pretty eyes! Her parents better go ahead and prepare for when she is a teenager!

Makenzie and Abby (whose mom hosted the party) are best friends. They now go to different schools, and were so excited to see each other. I love this picture because it shows how innocent and sweet friendships are when girls are little.

Nicole and her babies!

If you have been following my blog from the beginning, you will recognize these cuties. Nicole was one of my very first shoots as an "official business", and she has been such a great, supportive client. I was so glad when I showed up for my portrait party last week and found out she was a guest. She is also starting to plan her very on Christmas themed portrait party with a real Santa and everything. Isn't that a great idea?!? I was also happy when she told me she wanted to be in some of the pictures this time. In my experience mommies are usually the ones holding the camera which means there aren't very many pictures with them on the other side of the camera. All mommies deserve some good pics with the babies they give so much too. I love how these turned out.


Nicole and her cute boys! So many times when I take a picture, I say to myself "Man what I would pay to have a picture like that of me and my (fill in the blank, son, husband, sister, whoever). This is one of those pics. I think it is priceless, and I hope one day someone will be able to capture a picture of Cameron and me like this!
Baby love!
Look at that cute face!

Hasn't he grown?!?!
Love Sawyer's face in this one! He is such a tough baby!
I love this one because it shows Seth's personality and him in his element. He isn't a big fan of sitting still (which I can relate to), so this shows him in action!
Brotherly love!

Portrait Party=SUCCESS!

Well I had my first official "portrait party" last weekend. I have had to postpone and reschedule a few things due to this fabulous morning/all day sickness I have had lately, but I was able to hold it together last Saturday morning. I had such a great time hanging out at Susan's house and meeting all of her guests. This is just the first session and there are a few more to come in the next couple of days. Enjoy!

Here is the couple responsible for the party. They were great!

The sweet Vaughn family!
Enough smiling...time to play a little.
The whole gang.
Sweet babies with their grandmother and aunt!
Love this one. I love the relationship between little boys and their grandmamas!
Another special relationship. These babies LOVE their auntie!

Abby was feeling it by the end of the session. She was breaking out all sorts of poses!

Chelsea is all grown up!

Meet Chelsea. It is hard to believe this beauty has grown up right before my eyes. I was able to work with her mom while she was in high school, and now she is in her very last year. She was so easy to photograph and was so natural in front of the camera. I have heard Beyonce talk about how she turns into "Sasha Fierce" when she gets on stage, well Chelsea had the same experience in front of the camera. The girl was working it and I think the pictures show it! She is a beautiful person inside and out, and I hope these pictures show just how gorgeous she really is.
I think this is my favorite!


Or maybe this is my favorite...
This pose was actually her cool mom's idea. I told you she knew how to work it in front of the camera!

Wait, maybe this is my favorite...

Happy girl!

I had told her Mama to dress pretty so I could take some of the two of them. They have such an amazing relationship, and I know she is going to miss her little girl when she goes away next year. I hope she can look at these pictures and they make her happy while Chelsea is away living up the college life!
So cute!
Love them! Thanks guys!

Lauren is a SENIOR!

Meet Lauren! I was blessed to have Lauren in my class last year, and now she is a senior! She was a great student and an awesome young lady, so I was glad I got to hang out with her one afternoon this past week and take her senior pictures. She was great to work with! Thanks Lauren! I hope you like them!
One of the last shots of the night but my favorite!

Isn't she pretty?

Love her hair!
Had to take a few with the puppy!
Giving Theo some camera time! Cute doggie!



Good luck with your senior year! Yay Class of 2010!
