All I want is a pony...

In celebration to her third birthday, it was only natural we had to get some cowgirl images. This lucky little girl had a pony come to her third birthday party. She was all set with her pink cowgirl boots and hat. They were super cute even though she wasn’t a fan of keeping the hat on. Happy birthday sweetie! I hope you enjoyed your awesome birthday party.

Family fun

My aunt Val invited me to come to her family bbq while all her kids and grandkids were in town to capture some family, kid and grandkid shots. She lives on a beautiful area of rolling green fields just outside of town. It served as a great setting for some family shots all the while the hamburgers and brats where cooking just a few yards away.

Turning one!

Kortney was one of my first photography customers and such a dear friend. I’ve enjoyed capturing her baby boy from the time he was in her tummy to now turning one. He is one of the most-smiley little boys I’ve ever seen. Seriously, just look at how cute he is! We had a great time playing, crawling and “trying” to stand the other night for his session. He’s close to being able to stand on his own and once he is, watch out. He will have entered the world of walking. Enjoy the photo sneak peak.

A few of my own

Just because they are too darn cute and I can't get enough of my girls, I felt like posting these. I was searching around for some images and came across to these shots I took at the beginning of the summer. Now I can't believe the end of summer is just around the corner. In fact, our city pool closes next week already! Hopefully we can make it there one more time for a last dip in the warm, yet refreshing summer pool water.

Sweet teen

I love that this young teen's mom wanted to capture her daughter entering her teen years. This is such a transition time in a child’s life. I’ve heard too that they change pretty quickly from being a child to looking more mature within months. Something I can’t image my babies doing, but I know it’s inevitable and will happen. A photosession is a great way to mark this transition.

Like most teenagers, she is hooked to the hip with her best friend so she brought along her to be in some photos as well. I loved the giggles of girls at this age.

Watch out mom and dad! You have a beauty on your hands. And her personality is just as beautiful. I hope my girls turn out to be just as sweet when they enter their teen years.

Cake smash session

What is it about one year olds and eating cake that is so darn cute when really they just end of making a huge mess? Wait I know… it’s because they react so funny to a huge piece of sugary goodness that is in arms reach.

Angel baby

Ahhhhh… isn’t baby B just so adorable. Every time I see her, she is just so sweet and happy. Thanks mom and dad for letting me spend time playing with her and capturing her at eight months old. It’s so fun to see how she’s been growing and changing since our last photoshoot together.
