You have to love it when one of the children you are going to photograph comes up to you and says, “How about you just take some pictures of only me?!”  Such a display of personality…so much fun!  I love when kids like to have their pictures taken.  Definitely no shyness here!  Hayden, you are a pro!!!  Mom wanted to focus on little Hailey this time around, so she brought various adorable little outfits for her.  She may not have loved her unicorn outfit, but she looked ridiculously cute it in.  I also loved how the gold background matched the gold heart on her shirt.  Just look at that happy smile and clapping hands!  Hailey, you did an amazing job  🙂  It was great seeing you all again this holiday season, Mom and Dad!  Here’s your sneak peek:

You know you are going to have a great photo session when you have two little guys running on the sand with their fishing nets, sporting huge smiles on their faces!  “I see a whale!” was a frequent exclamation from little Roman.  Oh boy, was he excited…I mean, really excited (just look at that photo of him making a mad dash away from the approaching water)!  Mikey always melts my heart.  He is so quiet and sensitive, with his big brown eyes…just pools of chocolate.  The boys looked for snails, crabs, and of course, whales, in the tide pools.  They got a little wet, but that’s the risk that you take, when you are a pair of tide pool explorers!  It was great seeing you all again this year, Mom and Dad.  Thank you so very much for sharing your family with us year after year!  Click HERE to see Mikey and Roman’s 2016 shoot with us.  Here is your sneak peek:

It’s our 2017 family reunion with the T family!  Our 9th anniversary, and they are one of our favorite families.  Click HERE to see their 2016 photo shoot.  I just marvel at how much the kids grow over the course of the year.  They have the most hilarious sibling interactions (seriously, they remind me of my family growing up)…such a loving family  😉

Little Jasper (4) is growing like a weed! Big brothers, Jansen and Jorel (14), and big sis, Jalen (16), took amazing care of him during the shoot.  He’s so lucky to have them all!  They are so patient and gentle with him  🙂  It was a slightly hazy day, and the view of the mountains wasn’t the best, but the clouds began to dissipate as the afternoon progressed.  At least the ground wasn’t muddy, and it wasn’t as humid as it’s typically been this past month.  Thanks for a great shoot (and the creative poses…you’ll see those in your private proofing gallery  😉  ).  It was great seeing all of you again this year!  I’ll finish the photos in this post with my “not-so-little ham”…oh boy are you growing up!  Hugs to all of you!  Here’s your sneak peek:

We are officially booked through the end of 2017.  Thank you for all of your support!  We are continuing to book for 2018.

I love doing maternity shoots, especially when they are family maternity shoots!  We couldn’t have asked for an easier family to photograph!  Peyton was such a little cutie, and she took direction so well.  She told me that she “practiced smiling” before her shoot.  How sweet is that?  I’m sure she didn’t need to practice smiling though, because she was so happy and giggly!  She is going to be the best big sister  🙂  Keep your eyes open for her sister’s newborn shoot…it will be coming up in a couple of weeks!  Thanks, Mom and Dad, for coming out to meet us, especially on such a hazy, windy day.  At least it didn’t rain on us!  Can’t wait to see you for your upcoming newborn shoot!  Here’s your sneak peek:

Little Olivia was the spitting image of her big brother, Jonny, when we did his newborn shoot!  Click HERE to see Jonny’s newborn shoot, and HERE to see his last shoot with us.  We did a “natural” shoot with Olivia (but I snuck in that new little bed at the very end of the shoot  😉  ).  Baby Olivia wanted to see the world.  She remained calm throughout her sibling shots, and continued to flash her beautiful eyes at us for the first portion of the shoot.  Her eyes were very focused, so they made for great wrapped shots!  Once she fell asleep, Olivia was out!  She was such a little sweetie…just look how peaceful she looks!

Thanks, Mom for being so incredibly easy to work with (you always are)!  We can’t wait to see both Olivia and Jonny for their next shoot!  Here’s your sneak peek:

Little Jameson had a sweet little smile, and and even sweeter personality  🙂  He was such a handsome little guy, with his collared shirt and adorable little shorts.  Made me sigh and think of my own son at that age.  How time flies!  We don’t see many three month olds, but Jameson seemed ready for his shoot!  I just loved how he clasped his tiny hands together for his photos, absolutely ADORABLE!  I’m so glad that we were able to finally meet, Mom!  Dad, it was great seeing you again after all of these years  🙂  Jameson did such a wonderful job, and before you know it, he’ll be on his feet…running and enjoying life!  Thanks for driving out to meet us, we had a great time with all of you!  Here’s your sneak peek:

Our holiday shoot schedule is almost full.  We have select weekday afternoons available. We are now scheduling for 2018.  Thank you  🙂

Little R was such a handsome little one!  We did a maternity shoot with Mom and Dad about a month before his arrival, and from the moment I met his parents, I knew he was going to be a lucky guy  🙂  They are equally as lucky, because baby R was just amazing.  He had the tiniest little hands, and the shiniest hair!  He barely let out a peep during the shoot.  Just like his photos depict, he was indeed a little angel…perfect in every way.  It was great seeing you again, Mom and Dad!  Congratulations on your new family addition!  Here’s your sneak peek:

We saw them last year at the beach. Click HERE to see Luke and Noah’s 2016 shoot.  This year, we met Luke and Noah at a completely different location.  Beach, park…it doesn’t really matter, because little boys will be little boys, no matter the environment.  Luke and Noah found “fun” in every single thing they touched, and turned it into a joyful experience.  Open grassy spaces, vines, weeds…everything was exciting  🙂  It was a beautiful day, with a gorgeous, expressive sky. I don’t think we could have asked for a better day!  I loved how happy the boys were. It was a day full of smiles  🙂  Thanks, Mom and Dad, we had a fantastic afternoon with you.  Here’s your sneak peek:

What a beautiful place to do Emi’s 18-month photo shoot!  Lots of grass to run and play on, and some beautiful lighting as the sun began to set.  It was great seeing Tyler, as always, he is one of our favorite little guys…he’s so big already!  Loved how he wanted to talk about his day with all of us  🙂

Emi was the cutest in her floral dress! She reportedly isn’t a big smiler, but she could have fooled us!  Tons of smiles from this little girl…probably because “Prince Edson” was there.  Oh boy, did she love him. We almost came home with a little sister for Bradley, LOL!  Emi loved the bench and a special little white rock that we found for her.  ADORABLE.  Thank you, Mom and Dad, for getting the balloons!  They worked out perfectly (surprisingly, wind wasn’t too much of a factor).

I just realized that I haven’t posted Emi’s 1 year shoot on the photo blog yet (we were waiting for her birthday invites to go out before I posted it)…obviously, that was a while back.  I’ll post some photos in a separate post later this week and link back to this post so you all can see how much she’s grown!

Thanks again, Mom and Dad!  Here’s your sneak peek:

Kaila is a big sister! (Click HERE to see Kaila’s 2016 shoot with us.) We couldn’t wait to meet baby Kolten.  We did Kaila’s newborn shoot (click HERE to see her newborn shoot), and I remember her having the cutest cheeks! She was only a few days old, and was absolutely precious. Kolten did not disappoint!  He had the same signature cheeks, and was equally adorable! He had the sweetest little swirls in his hair, and I just wanted to (softly) pinch those cheeks! Mom forgot how small newborn props were (that’s what 2 years will do!), and couldn’t believe Kaila once fit in those props.  Time flies by, doesn’t it?!  Kaila, we loved your sparkly pink dress…so fitting for a princess!  Kolten, you are the handsomest little prince, and the best sleeper around!  Thank you for being so easy for us to work with  😉  Mom and Dad, congratulations again!!!  It was great seeing you all  🙂  Here’s your sneak peek:
