S + O | Mommy & Me Session

I have known S for close about 6 years now. We have a rather unique situation…for 4 of those years, she cared for my daughter, always communicating with me and had her best interests at heart. I am so grateful that she put so much love into her time with G. Her daughter, O, is my daughter’s half-sister. S and I have become friends over the last few years and I am so thankful for our friendship!! I did a session with these two lovely ladies over the summer and we made sure to get some of the girl's together, as well. <3

Shelby + O | A Mother Daughter Session

Shelby and I have a unique relationship. We met because she cared for my youngest for nearly four years. It’s not easy to place your trust in someone else to look after your child, but Shelby always made sure to put Gray’s best interests first. For that, I will be forever thankful.

Shelby now has a little one of her own! I had the pleasure of capturing their special connection in honor of Miss O’s second birthday! We had a beautiful day for it, and O was a trooper, despite feeling sleepy near the end. We were able to get some really great shots and I am SO glad we had the chance to do this!

The D Family | A New Family Session

The precious D family came to me shortly after the birth of their new daughter. It was their first session as a family of four! How beautiful is this family?! Big sis was so sweet and eager to help. I had such a great time with these four!

The M Boys

I had a nice fall session scheduled with this mom and two boys. Normally, in October, we deal with some cool temps, maybe even some rain. Well, not this day. On this particular day, it was HOT. Mom had chosen some really cute outfits, complete with button-ups, sweaters, and cords…not knowing it would be a whopping 90 degrees. OOPS! We did grab some shots of the boys in their dressier outfits, but we ALSO let them cool off in their pretty sweet t-shirts, too. Win-win! Of course, I made mom get in a few frames, too. Moms…you will NEVER regret having pics with your kids!!!
