You may recognize the little man in these first two shots from the top of my blog. He’s the little flirt with the blonde curls that is shown in the revolving photos. To my surprise, he was so grown up, lookin’ like a little man when I arrived for their photo shoot last weekend! I’ve been photographing these brothers for over a year now ( take a journey with them here, here, and, here ) and I just love them to pieces!!! One thing I’ve always noticed is the connection between these two guys. Big Bro Joe started making silly faces, and Beau just LOST it. This kid was laughing so hard I thought he was going to start crying. I have another photo of him with one of those crazy, hysterical laugh faces on – just precious!! It was after that Joey promptly told me he was “done” with photos, and I had to agree. We had a great morning, and he supplied the perfect ending to the shoot. Much love to the K Family – you guys rock!

So CUTE!!!!!

All boy. I was so excited to meet the newest addition to the K Family – pretty little Bella. You all know how I love my boxers, so this was a pure treat!

Hanging out in “Big Daddy’s” awesome car. Love the sun streaming in on this one.

I love how Joey is looking up at Mom & Dad with such a sweet little smile.

I donated my hair to Locks of Love, gave my AH-Mazing hair stylist Kristi the biggest hug (go see her at Hair Sculptors on Evans Ave in Valpo *477-4455* – she is the BEST!!), and gave my husband a quick lesson on how to snap away with my camera, because my self-portrait skills leave MUCH to be desired. I guess it was about time to get a decent photo of myself for my website, and let me tell you – it feels weird on the other side of the camera!!

Lovely…

is the best way to describe my time spent with this family. I was invited up to their family cottage in Union Pier, Michigan. I knew from the beginning I was going to love shooting at this location. Every little detail included generations of memories for this family. I love to incorporate special touches into portraits – something that means so much to the client, but yet may not be obvoius to other viewers. I think every photo we took at the cottage had that extra special touch. There was just so much history and love streaming from this place. I was sad to leave!

“A” family – thank you for being so hospitable. I think we finally nailed down the perfect day. I love your home away from home, and I look forward to seeing you all again!

Good friends =

There is not much to say except how much I ADORE being around this family. Thank you for allowing me to capture your family memories.

Just a little…

Sunday Heart. There is really a lot of meaning behind this image, but it is so late early, that I’m not going to even try to write something sensible or possibly deep. Let your imagination wander….
