Rarrick Family

A friend of my lovely mother in law was turning 60 and had the honor of sharing his special day with the most special people in his life; his three stunning daughters.  When I say stunning, I mean stunning! Just take a look.

Stockdale Soccer Team

A good friend of ours has a son on the Stockdale soccer team (He was definitely one of the stars on the team!)  She asked us if we could photograph the game and Senior game night.  We had a lot of fun photographing and it was really hard to not get completely involved in the game.  I may have yelled a couple of things a few times. :)

Baby "C"

A very good friend of mine from elementary school and I were given a second chance at friendship and reconnected a couple of years ago.  I was so excited when she told me that she would be having a baby and of course I couldn't wait to photograph that baby.  They are one of those couples that just glow with love around one another and I knew they would be sharing this same love with their new little one.  She and her husband chose to wait to find out the sex of the baby and I love that!  She was such a sweet doll to photograph. 

Baby Bella

This was one of those shoots where I couldn't wait to get home and look at this baby over and over again.  Arriving at the house, the door opened and there stood a tired yet glowing mommy, holding her baby as though she had done this before.  The love she and her husband had for her baby was evident throughout the entire shoot.  There was love and yet still that small amount of fear that they just brought this baby into the world and she is depending on them for everything.  It was beautiful.

A New Year

On New Year's Eve, we were fortunate to photograph a beautiful family of 5.  We have been friends with the "R" family for many years.  Their family added a new member almost two years ago when one of their daughters married the man of her dreams.  We unfortunately could not make that wedding as we were also adding to our family (Ella Jane).  I had so much fun taking these photos.  It was easy to shoot such a photogenic group of people.

Family Christmas Shoot

The "B" family is one of those families that you look at and say "WOW".  As I walked up the stairs to meet these gals (and dad) I thought, "look at all those luscious locks!"


One gorgeous couple:

and 6 Gorgeous Girls

Baby "P"

Newborn portraits....hmmm...definitely not the easiest project, but do I ever love me some baby love!  This photo shoot included a grandma, a mommy, and a baby, and pure love!  This family was so caring, so honest, and ever so refreshing from the moment I talked with them on the phone.  From the initial explosion (inside joke between us), to frequent feedings, to the needing to be just held and loved by her mommy; baby "P" kept us on our toes.  The innocence of this tiny little being was so easy to capture, as was the love and patience her mommy had for her.
