Expecting Parents

Here you go, Missie and Chris! The two of you were so fun to work with today. The weather worked out beautifully, after a morning of nothing but rain, rain, and more rain, we were able to go outside and enjoy the amazing sunlight. Now, normally I would not post quite so many sneak peaks, but I know the two of you will be surrounded with family this weekend as you celebrate the upcoming arrival of precious Mr. J! So, I picked out 2 from our studio session and 3 from outdoors. Have a great weekend with your family and I look forward to seeing you again once your little bundle arrives!

Adorable little guys

A while back I met up with one of my friends back home. (Hi, Val!) The plan was to photograph Val's very pregnant and beautiful friend, then snag some shots of Val and her family. I had so much fun with the maternity photos, Val's little ones were a bit "spirited" by the time I got to them. The first thing they wanted to do _SO_ badly.... they really wanted to get into the pink tu tu I had brought with me... It was SO FUNNY! Since Val, her husband, and I have known each other for more years than any one of us cares to count, I know I can safely post the following pictures. Now, for you men out there reading this... fear not, if you keep looking, there is some redemption in the photos to come...

Here's Big Brother, Mr. L...





Here's Little Brother, Mr. N.... but wait.... what is that in his hand that has captured his attention?





Wrapped tightly in the lovely sheer strips of pink... nothing less than a Hot Wheels car! See? All boys, through and through!









And let's not forget, their precious baby sister, Little Princess H looking on adoringly at her Daddy!

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to this wonderful family! Knowing this crafty bunch, Dad probably ended up with a sentimental keepsake made with love by his two little cuties at the hand of his lovely wife. Can't wait to see!

Gorgeous Digital Painting

I captured this little moment a few weeks ago and recently sent it over to Stacey Rosenbaum over at Paintings By Stacey. I loved it so much that I had to share it with all of you!

After previewing this post, it really doesn't do the image justice! You can see it much better on my website. It's in the slideshow on the main page.

Miss C's Sneak Peak

And now for the lovely Miss C! It's down to the wire for her. Only a couple of short weeks left. For today, though, a bit of a break on a gorgeous day to take a stroll in some gorgeous surroundings. Congratulations, (a little early) and enjoy the rest of your senior year... I have a feeling you're floating somewhere above cloud nine right now!
