How did time get away from us like this?  The last time we saw Emily, she was a newborn (click HERE to see Emily’s newborn shoot). Now, a 10-month old, Emily was sitting up, laughing, and crawling across our studio. Her big, brown eyes sparkled as she posed for us. Big sis, Maggie, posed for a few sibling shots (Mags has had a ton of experience posing for us…I think this is the 8th time that we’ve seen her!). Thanks for coming out to see us, Mom! I can’t wait to see you all next month for your family shoot, and then again for Emily’s first birthday party  🙂  We are so fortunate to have met such a wonderful family!  We really appreciate your loyalty…and we love seeing you! Thanks for sharing your afternoon with us.  Here’s your sneak peek:

He was a perfect mixture of Mommy and Daddy…all rolled into a little ball of cuteness! Sleepy baby Taycyn did a wonderful job of falling asleep for us. Dad initially wanted our “job to be easy” (i.e., “You don’t have to do a lot of props, just some natural stuff.”). We did a lot of “just baby” shots, and ended the shoot with a few props (I knitted the blanket, fishing hat and fish…and I just had to get them in there!). Thank you for including us in another one of your life milestones, Mom and Dad (click HERE to see their engagement shoot ,and HERE for their wedding). You’ve included us  in your journey together, and we feel so fortunate to be able to enjoy it along with you  🙂 Welcome to the world, little Taycyn!  Here’s your sneak peek:

We’ve been following him in the newspaper for the past week…and he continues to impress! Jordan, thank you for being such an easy-going person to work with. I think it runs in the family (click HERE to see his sister’s Senior Portrait photo shoot with us last year). Whenever I incorporate sports items/uniforms into a Senior Portrait shoot, I try to use the props without making the photo look overly “sports-teamish”. I have visions of my own intermediate and varsity softball photos, and I cringe at the thought of asking someone to kneel with a bat at their feet, or pose as if they were swinging a bat…all perfectly great poses for team photos, but not necessarily for a Senior Photo Shoot.  Jordan did an amazing job of just looking natural…exactly what we were hoping for.

Thanks again, Jordan, and best of luck to you and your team for the rest of your season!  Here’s your sneak peek:

We’ve had almost 6 weeks of less than desirable weekend weather. It’s been routinely sunny during the weekdays, but as Saturday morning arrives, so do the wind and rain clouds. After a couple of reschedules, we were finally able to hold Brian’s Senior Portrait photo shoot. The weather at our shoot location was absolutely beautiful, and so was the view. Great choice for a location, Brian! Our timing could not have been any better…because as soon as we got back to the car, the rain started coming down AGAIN.  What luck!  Thanks to you and your family for being so patient, and easy to work with. I think it was definitely worth it  🙂  Congratulations on your upcoming graduation, and we wish you all the best!

P.S.  “Hi!” to your sister, Katie, from all of us  🙂  (Click HERE to see Katie’s Senior Photo Shoot with us.)

We’ve had quite a few “rain outs”, “wind outs” and “sick kid” rescheduling over the past couple of weeks (which means our schedule is quite full for the next couple of weeks). We also decided to take a family vacation to relax and recharge  😉  I’ll post some of our vacation photos soon (you can imagine how many photos this photography obsessed woman took in just one week…), but I thought I’d post 2 photos that I made 16×24 framed wall prints out of.  I took these photos a couple of years ago during a weekend stay at the Ihilani (yes, I planned it specifically so I could take sunset photos). So happy I had a reason to print out two of my favorites! Here’s hoping that you’ll see these prints in person at a certain physician’s office  🙂
