Kylee

Here are some more of my favorites from the photo session with Kylee. I loved the color images, but I also am loving the antique look as well.

I had such an amazing time capturing Kylee.

She really is a happy girl that is so full of life!

Miss Thing...AKA Kylee

I had the pleasure of taking some pictures of my niece this week and had to share this with everyone. More to come soon...

Beautiful Eyes...

Need I say more than beautiful eyes??

Beautiful Baby!!

Connor's Body-Parts Collage...

Here is a body-parts collage that I created of my friends baby, Connor.
I hope to have more images from this session posted sometime this week.
He is such a sweet baby...

Handsome Tugg

I fell in love with this 'lil man' as soon as he came into the studio.
From the pictures, you would never know that he didn't like the posed positions.

He is adorable in his swim gear...

And I just love how sweet he looks in this picture...

ad this one too...

And look at Tugg all decked out in his chef hat...

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY

Happy (early) Valentines Day!! I couldn't wait any longer to post this on my blog. My nephew, Cason came over for a few hours early this week so we could take some pictures similar to ones that we took of his older brother when he was his age.

These pictures of Cason mean a lot to my family. If you look close at the image you will see the scars that he has on his chest from the open heart surgeries that he has had. Cason was diagnosed with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome prior to his birth. Click here to learn more about HLHS. Cason has been very blessed with his health since he came home from Wisconsin. Unfortunately, he will be having another surgery in July.

For my nephew, Cason and our other heart friends, my family and friends will be walking in the Heart Walk in Kansas City on Saturday, May 30th. My family has set a personal goal to raise funds for the American Heart Association and we need your help to reach my donation goal. We are raising critical dollars for heart disease and stroke research and education. A great example of where these research dollars go is obvious to me each and every day as I look at my nephew, Cason. The future holds strong for him and many others because of this research. When you support CHD research and screening you are helping to save a life!

You can help us reach our goal by making a donation online. Click here and you will be taken to our personal donation page where you can make a secure online credit card donation. If you are interested in joining our team on the walk please contact me and I can give you all the details for this. Thanks for your help.

Lily Maree

As you might recall from a previous post, our friends Jon & Alison were pregnant. They delivered Lily Maree on Dec. 15th. She is the sweetest little baby and I had a lot of fun taking pictures of her.

I LOVE the "baby-parts collage". . .

And this was right after Lily's little accident that she had on the towels.

I think it might have even shocked her a bit,

but we repositioned the towels and got some great shots... And what's sweeter than baby feet and diamonds ...You can quit thinking now because you won't come up with anything :)

The Wilson Family

I am going through all of my pictures today and trying to make sure I have posted all so I can get caught up. I really thought I had posted some from the day with The Wilson Family, but I hadn't. We met at a park and got some great shots...

I love this one of them all walking together. It's definitely one of my favorites!!

Kate was quite the little poser... And Leo is at the age where he doesn't like to sit still,

but I liked this picture of him walking around

playing with this leaf. And then there was Olivia...she's a super sweet girl that wasn't always ready to get her picture taken as you'll see below.

But we still managed to get this great shot

that captured her sweet expressions.

And I love this picture of everyone throwing leaves!

Shawna, Gil, & Cooper

Shawna, Gil, & Cooper made a visit to my studio awhile back and I'm just getting around to posting a few of their pictures. Cooper took a few minutes to get used to the pictures, but once we started taking pictures, he wanted to be in all of them.

This is one of my favorite pictures from the shoot.
We were actually just trying to get a few pictures of Shawna and Gil alone,
but Cooper wanted to be in the picture too!!

They are such a beautiful couple...with so much love for each other and Cooper too!

Cooper loves chewing on his ball.

This is another one of my favorite pictures.

I just think its too sweet for words!

The Kauble Family

Mindy, Chris, Skyler, and Kylee (AKA "Miss Attitude") came down to my studio this past weekend. Believe it or not, I have all their pictures ready to share and post on my blog. I thought I better do this before I head back to school tomorrow.
We had a lot of fun getting Kylee to pose and sit still long enough to get a picture in, but as you can see...we still got plenty.

Family is one of nature's masterpieces...

I spent a few hours one morning photographing the Turnbull family. It was a chilly day outside, but luckily we scheduled pictures for the morning and missed the afternoon rain. Following are some of my personal favorites...
