Elijah - 4 months


Elijah is my nephew. I finally got around to taking a few photos of him at my brother's house. He is 4 months old now but it amazes me how much he can do. He can sit up by himself for about 30-60 secs. He is already rolling onto his side. He grips things so well. He is a amazing little man. He just melts you whenever he smiles but unforunetly he wasn't all smiles for me this particular day but I still got some adorable shots of him. Enjoy!



He was getting hungry...his sad face is so funny. Look at those lips!

30 Weeks


Well, I've been meaning to take more belly progression photos for over a month and I finally (with Kyle's help) got it done. I'm 30 weeks along and beginnning to really want to be done and have my little munchkin baby here with me. I still feel pretty good but my belly is really itchy, I hate the iron supplements they're making me take, and the baby is very active a lot of the time. I'm getting more excited and more prepared every day. I can't wait to meet the little man. Oh, if you haven't heard were naming him Leon Joeseph. We're going to call him Leo though. We got the names after our two grandpas on our dad's side. I hoping to take some more photos when we go get our christmas tree...I thought it would be cool to have some with all the pine trees around me!

The Bell Family Portraits


The Bells are a beautiful family who needed some family portraits done for Christmas. They asked for what Kayli called a "mini sesssion"; a 45 minute session of just family photos for about 1/2 the price as a regular session. I'd never done a family session in such a short time but I think they turned out really well. The poor kids were freezing but they were such good sports! I definetly think these mini sessions are something I would like to do again...I think I'll offer it as a special package next fall. Thanks Bell Family!

Kenzi the Minature Cow


Kenzi is a minature cow with a sweet personality. She was much more outgoing than the rest of the minature cows at my friend's house. I had a lot of fun doing this little shoot. Who knew cows, minature cows nonetheless, could be sooo cool! Thanks Sara for letting me come out. We need to get together more often. And thanks Kenzi for being such a cool, photogenic cow!

Two Sweet Cheeks


Elise and Eva are two of the sweetest little girls. They have great personalities and it was so much fun to get to know them a little bit better. Although photographing two little girls under the age of 4 was a challenge I absolutely loved doing it! It probably was one of my favorite sessions from this season so far. I love these photographs because you can really see their sweet personalities shine through. I definetly hope to do more sessions like this in the future.



I loved Elise's colorful buttons and poka dot stockings.










Eva's got the most beautiful ocean blue eyes.

Cameron and Dylan's Senior Pics


Carmeron and Dylan were such good sports while I took their senior portraits. They'll be graduating in the spring. These are a few of my favorites from their session.




I just learned this new technique of cross processing. It adds a lot of character and flare to some of the portraits.




Beazer Family Photographs


The Beazer Family did an awesome job when it came to their family photos! I am so happy with how they turned out. They were so helpful and great to work with. Thank you Beazer family!
