I have loved and photographed this family for years! We had lots of fun, as usual. This awesome family is in the process of adopting a very spirited little two year old girl. There are many more images that I would love to show, but those will have to wait until the adoption is final.:)
I love this family! I was laughing, they were laughing, I still smile looking at their pictures. I must admit, their dog has stolen my heart too. 
I LOVE laughing families.
We can’t forget the man of the hour!
This family sets such an amazing example of love, faith and commitment to those around them. Mrs. D (chuckle) has been my friend for years. We enjoyed a bright, sunny day in one of my favorite new locations.
I haven’t been down to the Confluence in Auburn with a client for quite a while. It was so much fun! This family loves the outdoors, so hanging out on the trail and near the water was perfect for them. The mom is one of our well loved librarians and I was so happy to photograph her son and daughter for their senior portraits.
Okay, I am not kidding when I say this family knows how to have FUN together. They made me LAUGH. I get such a kick out of families that are goofy together.
We couldn’t have asked for a better prop than this one.
I have always wanted to photograph someone on this bridge over the river. Luckily, we had plenty of family members to be on the lookout for traffic.

Thanks, A Family!
This family’s farm property is a photographer’s DREAM! Views that go on forever, meadows, landscaping, barns, haystacks and lots of animals. As a primarily outdoor natural light photographer, I was in heaven here. And this family is so much fun! I had no idea this mom could be so wacky until I saw her helping me get her kids to smile. I love this family!
Mom and Dad made for a perfectly balanced pair. One kept the kids behaving nicely and the other kept things natural.
This is one of the meadows that I want in my backyard.
Thank you, M Family! I had a great time with you guys.
This is the song that I was listening to while editing this family’s images. Click the link here —->Have I Told You Lately by Van Morrison I think it fits this family perfectly! They were crazy in love with each other. I drove home with a smile on my face after watching them hug and kiss and simply enjoy each other.
I knew we were doing good when this was the first picture out of my camera that day.
These lucky kids are just blossoming with their mom and dad’s love.
Their lovely au pair came along to join in the fun too.
I LOVE this one. It completely cracks me up how she is so sweetly cuddling up to him and he is just not having it.
We did a family session combined with a maternity session. I never knew how well it could work to have the kids tag along during maternity portraits. I think they made the images that much more “real”.
This is one of my all time favorite images. We didn’t plan it this way, but isn’t this how life goes with kids? You plan something romantic and then the kids come in and make it their own. Ha!
Lovely end to a lovely evening! This family has since welcomed their baby. Welcome to the world, Isabella!
I have so many holiday mini sessions I want to share but my computer crashed and I’m working on a very slooooooow backup PC. Here is one recent family that I just loved. I used to think that the photography itself would be the most fun thing about doing this as a business but seriously, it’s meeting wonderful families like this that is just a blast. These boys were so adorable and mom was just gorgeous. It was a rather overcast day, with rain threatening, but we made it with just a few sprinkles falling.
I spent the day at the park recently with my high school best friend and her little sister. Her sister now has a completely adorable 4 year old. I meant to take lots more of her daughter but we got caught up in talking and laughing so much that I forgot until it was almost too late. More next time!

It’s been a little while since I broke out my studio lighting so this was fun! She is always more than willing to pose for me.
Dramatic much?
