Julia - 2 Years Old

I'm going to be honest. A few weeks ago I discovered Julia's session was lost because of a corrupt SD card and I was devastated. I was so disappointed in myself that I would have to let Julia's mama know that we had to start all over - IF she even wanted to work with me again after my mistake. Thankfully, she is the kindest soul, was willing to do it again, and I took this as an opportunity to make sure Julia's session wasn't just great, but PERFECT. So I chucked that dumb camera card and together Julia and I ROCKED her session redo. I left feeling still very bummed at what happened but sooo excited because this session is just plain wonderful. It hows sweet Julia exactly how she is - intelligent, spunky, and just downright beautiful! God always does things for a reason!

Enjoy my favorites from Julia's Session!

Camille + JP - Children Session

It’s been almost 2 years since I’ve seen this family and since then their little baby is now a sweet young lady and they added another squishy guy to the mix! To say I had the best time with them is an understatement. Confetti, bubbles, chocolate chip cookies, Frozen songs, lots and lots of balloons - I brought out all the stops for their session! I’m so glad I did because Camille and JP were photographic all stars.  Photographing two under two isn’t always easy but just when I thought the kiddos had had enough, they would bust out their big beautiful smiles.  I have to just mention that their Mama is also an all star - she managed to help throughout the whole session including blowing bubbles, fake sneezing, and making silly faces all while always holding a kiddo at the same time.  Can you say Mom of the Year?!  We managed baby portraits, 2 year portraits, sibling shots, and even some mommy and me shots. All in two hours!!!  As always it was great catching up with this family - they are always a joy to work with.  I made sure to get these edited today just so I could post this next sentence on their blog post…. Happy 2nd birthday, Camille!!! You are the smartest, most beautiful little girl! <3

 Enjoy my favs!

Charlie + Zoey

I hope you guys can handle the cuteness that is this little family! I kind of adore the tot stage and the reason for that is because they are so carefree and adventurous; they find everything interesting and are always exploring. Take that x2 and you have the makings of an adorable (and fast paced) session. Charlie and Zoey are BEAUTIFUL just like their parents. I mean it. Even editing these pictures I could not stop "awwwing".  They wanted their picture taken for a whole 2.2 seconds and then they were off on a grand adventure and me, mom and dad just followed along for the ride.  I have to give props to mom and dad - they were the foundation of this session. They could wrangle a wild Charlie who wanted to climb fences or a hungry Zoey who just wanted her gummies with the biggest smiles on their faces. And these kids adore their parents. Once they were tired of traipsing around the Fort Hunter property they were ready to snuggle with mom and dad.  I hope you enjoy these as much as I do! Here are some favs.
