Daniel Family Fun....

This session was just a touch outside my usual sessions.  See I typically get calls from families with smaller children or newborns.  This family had 3 children and they were all much older then I'm use too.  But we had a blast! Posing them was a synch.  I didn't have to chase them and they did as I asked without having to break out the farting noises...LOL!!  I was worried about getting real, genuine smiles out of teenage boys but they ALL showed up ready to go.  They were easy to get along with and I didn't have to force it one bit!  I loved that about this session. 

I hope you enjoy it too! 

Three Young Men....

OH MY...I can't believe I haven't gotten around to blogging this wonderful session! 

WELL now that school is back in session I have a few extra minutes on my hands to get to the computer it seems.....so here it is! 

The Huffman boys playing in the woods and Mom & Dad catching a few awesome family shots!

An amazing family that I always look forward to capturing! 

ENJOY

Baby Nash....

Dear Lord HOW have I not blogged in this long!?! Well us folk up here in MN have been enjoying every bit of sunshine we can get after that brutal winter we had.  My family and I have been outside and on the water as much as we can while it still lasts!  More pictures from our awesome week long 4ht of July vacation coming soon.  But first meet Baby Nash...(cool name right?!)...He was oh so sweet and looked just like his big brother Bonham....(another cool name!)  Big sister Dempsey....(family reeks of cool names!) couldn't keep her hands off of him either! 

My People....

OK so I've been on this 'Greys Anatomy' kick.  I discovered the show a bit ago and found the past seasons on Netflix.  It's totally driving my husband bananas as there are 9 season's to get through!!  LOL  Anyway in the show you get to love the characters and the relationships they have with each other.  They call each other 'their people'.  If something happens to one of them they all come running and I tear up EVERY time.  I've never been one for a crowd of people....I like to people watch but I'm certainly not the center of attention kinda gal.  I have a core group of friends that I consider 'MY PEOPLE'.  This lady (Elizabeth Anderson....whom I call Bert) is one of my people.  We met in a  MOPS group and kinda stuck.  She has inspired me in SO many ways, I'm not even sure I've told her all of them.  She is as genuine as they come and as loving and selfless as they come.  She has a clear head and knows her own strengths and weaknesses.  She sees the good in everyone and can give sound advice!  We both had our 2nd child around the same time and went through the process together. To our surprise Bert and her husband decided to go for #3!  I'm so glad she did because I've seen even yet another amazing side to this women!  One of patients, determination, perseverance, and strength!  She always has been these things in my eyes but I've seen them even more in the last few months from her.  Bert's labor story is a long one so I wont go into detail but I will say that she had an overnight stay in the hospital where we thought baby might make an appearance.  No such entry happened but I was able to swing by and capture a few images for her to remember the experience with!  Hope you enjoy them Bert and know that I love you and I'm grateful to have you as a friend!

Remember when....

Remember when I ran a giveaway on my Facebook page the day I hit 500 likes?!  Well the winners turned out to be this amazing family of 5 with 1 on the way!  We decided to wait till the little one arrived and do some images at the family home.  The older kids loved it because they got to skip school for a day!!  Whoot Whoot!  Anyway this family was Fun, Loving, and just simply Great!
