Sweet Kylee

I love this little girl. She is so much fun to watch grow up. I have taken her pictures since even before she was born!! She is so full of energy and smiles and even a little chatty now- which I love that! Her poor mom has a tough time keeping up with her, she is a spitfire- but she is also sweet, funny and full of love. What a fun little girl.

C Family

What a perfect day to take family pictures. The sun was shining, the kids were smiling and all was right with the world! We have so much fun. The girls are so adorable- they were showing me their practice smiles, and they sure did a great job. Last time I took their pictures they were just babies, and now look how grown up they are! Love to watch such cute kids grow!

 

 

 

On the river bank

These two boys were so much fun! I love working with such happy, fun, crazy kids. These boys laughed and played and occassionally engaged in brotherhood squabbles! It was a blast to see them laugh and play. Of course they were rewarded with Starburst- who wouldn't be good for that? I am so glad I got to take these pictures.

Not so little girl

I love, love, love taking pictures of this little girl- who is turning out to be a beautiful little lady. I love her so much and am so proud to be her mama! Happy Birthday Little One!

the L... Kiddos

One of my favorite things in the world is to take pictures of kids- especially ones that I adore. My sweet friend needed some updated pics of her kidlets, since the last time was when J. was a newborn- so it's been about 8 months. A lot can happen in such a short time- and for these kids it sure is true. R. and B. have the sweetest smiles and the most infectious laughter.

This is sweet little J. Well, she isn't so little, but she is definitely sweet. I love her chubby cheeks, and arms, and thighs!!

Little boys are made of...

I have such an amazing job! I had to share that because I get to work with such adorable little people, and get them to smile and laugh and then give their family something to treasure. There is nothing that tops that! I absolutely adore these little boys- and they were so much fun. Baby Cayden came into the world about 6 weeks ago and he is just delicious. Of course when doing a newborn shoot it's a lot easier when they are one or two weeks old, because they sleep all the time and are easy to move around- but you don't get the cute little facial expressions that this little guy had. Even though he was tired, he wanted to be awake for the whole shoot- and I admit, it was a little tricky, but he did so amazingly well. All these boys did, and they got some yummy treats too for being so good! Oh, I just had so much fun taking these pictures!!!

Growing up

I love watching babies grow from month to month. It really seems like it wasn't that long ago that I was taking baby Kylee's newborn pictures. Well it wasn't, just a few months- but she has grown and changed so much. She was so full of spit and giggles! I loved watching her reactions every time I put the camera to my face- she is definitely a camera ready gal. She sure loved putting her dress or her hands in her mouth at all times, so that was a bit of a challenge, but we sure managed to get too many adorable photos!

A Father's greatest joy...

What a fun surprise this shoot turned out to be!! Tiffanie asked if I could take some pictures of her and her boys (including the one in her belly) for her hubby, who is stationed overseas:) I was so happy to help her and even rush the edits so she could get some cute pictures just in time for Father's day.

(Yes, that was almost a month ago- and I have been super busy, but I couldn't forget these little darlings, I just had to make sure to get their pictures up, even if it is a little late!!!!!!!!!)

Tanner

This young man is about to turn 8 years old. That's a pretty important age, especially for him. Tanner is choosing to be baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. His parents contacted me to help preserve some memories of this special day. It was a perfect day for pictures, bright, sunny and even warm. He has such a fun personality and it was great to get to know him. I am excited for him and his big day.

The Kraus Family

This was such a fun photo shoot. These have been friends of ours for awhile now, and all our kids are friends- so it was a lot of fun! It took awhile to get together due to busy schedules, horrible weather, and sick babies. We finally managed to meet up, with somewhat good weather- now that's saying something for April in Idaho! I am so glad I was able to do this for this cute family.

Sweet little Reagan. She was such a ball of fun. She was all smiles, all the time. We had no problems whatsoever getting her in the mood for pictures. As soon as she saw the camera her smile came out. Her mom must take lots and lots of pictures of her:) She is so adorable!!

Fun with Photoshop- Birthday Pictures

I have just been messing around with some new photoshop actions and I thought I would share- especially since these are their birthday pictures!

Happy Birthday Little Ones!
