follow that duck!

i met two cuties at the duck pond this morning! what a beautiful morning, what beautiful girls! we took a walk, smelled the flowers, watched the ducks, and looked for turtles! what more could you want. and i had a little girl that wanted "MORE ANIMALS!" next shoot, the zoo! ;-)

daddy's little girl:

getting some giggles:

what a cutie!:

what a beauty!:

infectious grins:

and four makes . . . COMPLETE!

i had the honor of shooting miss katherine's first shoot! I've been shooting her brother for ages, i'm so excited to watch this family grow. they do make nice looking kids ;-) can't wait to watch these two grow up together.


could this be the sweetest?:


just checking out my sleepy sister:


lil sis' feet and big bro's feet:


oh i just adore my brother!:

COMPLETE!:

have i told you how much i LOVE to shoot this kid?!?:

and mom makes everything better:

lovely all around . . .

lovely day, lovely family, lovely little boy, lovely location! we had a great sunday morning with this little guy! 19 months and on the move! outdoor shoot was most definitely what he needed. we had fun chasing him around and he did awesome. he was rewarded with ducks at the end ;-)!!!

BIG fan of the fake sneezes! don't know what it is, but it cracks me up that kids think sneezing is quite so funny!:


also a big fan of juumping! so much fun:


picture perfect:


on the move! sitting down was not in this guy's agenda! but i love it!:

super sweet!

ENJOY!

brothers . . .

check out this handsome duo! brothers through and through. they were awesome! we bartered nice pose pic for mom for a silly pic for the boys. i think it was a fair deal. win win. check em out!

lil bro:



can you see the love?:



but wait! there's also plenty of wrestling!:

always one of my favorites:

this has their personalities and the kind of day we had written all over it!:

a bunch of blue eyed blondies!

although we've known this family for awhile now, this was my first time shooting them. i was so excited to come to their home and see the kids in their element and get to have some fun. we've got the same arrangement, boy, girl, boy and just about the same ages! hmmmm, now that i think about it mine have blond hair and blue eyes, wait a minute?! did i just shoot my own children!?!? noooooo! these kids were put together better than mine and behaved better than mine! maybe i'll swap them, mom will never know . . .


can you just eat this little guy up?!!?:



pretty as a princess:



fun loving big brother:



one for the holiday card!:



one for fun!:

children, children, everywhere!

meet this beautiful GROWING family! it's been sometime since i've seen them and the big boys have grown up so much, into lovely young boys, and they've added a munchkin of a little sister and are expecting one more little brother! wow! mom's got her hands full. but when i was there, i had my hands full. we had a big session with TONS of pics! enjoy!


cute as a button!:



what a cute crew:



handsome guy:



look at those cheeks! i could just eat them up!:



surrounded by love:

i just loved this! she has no clue her world is going to be turned upside down!:
