We first met this wonderful family back in 2009 (click HERE to see their 2009 shoot).  At that time, Jorel (my “Little Ham”) was about the same age as his little brother (Jasper) is now.  I remember being so impressed with Jansen, Jalen and Jorel at that shoot, because they were so easy to work with. They took direction exceedingly well, and genuinely seemed to like each other. Eight years later, I feel like I’m at a family reunion. I’ve seen the kids grow up, and I’ve enjoyed each year  :).  I’ve seen Jansen graduate from high school, and Jalen enter high school. I’ve seen my Little Ham literally sprout from a preschooler to a young man right before my eyes (and he still loves to pose for my camera!), and we’ve welcomed baby Jasper!  Click HERE to see their previous shoot.  Thank you, Mom and Dad, for allowing us to be a part of your family. Your children continue to amaze us with their love for each other (just look at those candid pics!).  You are all so very special to us, and we have been blessed with your kindness, support…and fantastic parenting!  Here’s your sneak peek:

It was a cousin photo shoot, and we were excited  🙂  We’ve been fortunate to see David and Noah a number of times (click HERE to see their previous photo shoot). We met Richard once (click HERE to see his 1-year photo shoot), but this was the first time we met Mimi!  David and Noah arrived first, so we started with sibling photos. The boys were adorable, as always!  I think they know the routine by now, and they both flashed their cute little smiles at me.  They always make our job so easy! Once Richard and Mimi arrived, we quickly moved to “group cousin shots”, because it can be difficult to keep the attention of 4 kids under the age of 5 years for very long. They all did a great job. Richard and Mimi looked like they were having fun, and gave us some great smiles too! I loved the “older boy cousin” photo…it was an homage to the “cousin” shot we did of the boys together during Richard’s shoot.  Just look how much they’ve grown since then!  The sun was going down quickly, but we got in a few more group shots. So much fun  🙂  Thanks for a great afternoon shoot, everyone!  It was great seeing all of you again, especially Grandma and Grandpa!  Here’s your sneak peek:

It was a chilly morning (OK, that’s relative because we live in Hawaii), and I could already smell wood burning.  I literally felt like I was in a ski lodge…so toasty!  Roman and Mikey (and Edson) were very interested in the smoke coming out of the chimney.  Not something you see everyday  😉  It’s been about a half year since we last saw Roman  (click HERE to see his 14-month shoot), but it was like we went through a time warp! Instead of the cute little guy digging around in the sand we saw back in March…we were met with a charming young man with a big-boy haircut. Mikey was a doting big brother. He allowed Roman to crawl all over him (and give him huge bear hugs)…the only thing he wasn’t ready to compromise in was the use of his beloved teddy.  That was HIS.  Don’t worry, Mikey, I understand how it is to have to share everything with younger siblings…it never ends!  It was great seeing all of you again this year!!!  Thanks again, Mom and Dad, for hosting our shoot at your gorgeous house  🙂  Here’s your sneak peek:
