Where the heart is.

The ever growing family is now on bouncing baby number three! If you ever wan life to be filled, this is the way to do it! And of course, Mama knows that it's hard to get those moments alone, so she planned a special side trip just for that. I can definitely learn from her, with just our one (and one on the way) we haven't had a nice family photo done... well, ever! And to add the couple love (where it all starts) to boot, is amazing. I can't wait to see where you are all headed from here! Thanks ~S family!

Part Two

If there was an adopt-a-family program that existed, I'd definitely put an application in for these guys! A SWEET baby girl, cute and playful boy and nice, delightful parents. I first met baby boy when he was his sisters age and loved to see how the family is doing now. It's so nice to see how the love has grown! Thanks for the wonderful afternoon and the Muttart tour (anybody and everybody should visit, it's pretty- especially when the snow is headed our way, a little flora and fauna is nice!) Have a great year with your little ones!

oh boy, so funny.

This family makes me smile every time I think of the afternoon. They started out the session all ready to take pretty pictures (and they did), then slowly- okay, really fast- they got super goofy. From cracking jokes, to bunny ear photo pranks that by the end of the session Mom said, "Okay we can show our true selves- you guy's can through the leaves at me, but only if I can beat you off with the stick!"

~K, I hope you at least got the one nice photo you've been wanting for almost a year now, but please know the true beauty of your family truly shines through and I was glad to see it!

Small Town Adventure

These guys have a little tyke who knows how to put the farm in boy. A day in the life with them is definitely an adventure. The first time I visited their place I was literally chased by a huge herd of Buffalo and feared for my life. Fortunately this visit was a little more calm, even though we drove through the same field to Pavlo's Barn. The door almost falling on little ~D, Mamma ~C said a quick prayer for ~D being spared any injury. It was sometimes hard to get Papa ~G to focus on the camera and not look around surveying his land or checking out the bird population- but hey, the man is proud!

Thanks for the mini adventure!

Happy Days

Spending time with these guys outdoors for this shoot, George Santayana said it best "The family is one of nature's masterpieces." I've had the privilege of knowing these people for a year now and they are golden! And that always makes days like this fun. Thanks for the fun afternoon, and sorry about the cold toes!

Pretty Lady.

There is nothing more fun than a glam shoot with a friend! I already know the beauty of this chickie, and it shines through. I miss those summer days! (Even though I think this one was already kind of cold, am I remembering right ~C?) Thanks for the time well spent!
