The Stumps


As I look back on the year, one thing that stands out is the amazing friendships we've made with some new couples...the Stumps being one of them. Besides being photographers, we have a lot in common and have enjoyed getting to know them. We are so excited for their newest addition to the family....little Brady. Here are a few pics of their precious new gift....congrats you guys....we love you guys :)

O'Neill Family


What an adorable family!! I used to work with Sara at the ad agency....gosh it's crazy how long ago that feels. Anywho...it's been fun watching (and capturing) their family grow. This was my first time to meet little Violet. She is absolutely precious, and I think her name fits perfectly :) They lived out on this farm briefly while in transition, and it was the PERFECT place for a shoot. So many wonderful textures, colors and endless photo opps :) It was great seeing you guys again....thanks for letting me capture your beautiful family.

The Kowalevsky family


How fun are these guys...and absolutely adorable!!! I used to work with LK back in my advertising days. It was so great to see her again and meet the rest of her family. I know i've probably said this a lot, but I really adore watching families interact. These guys were so playful and it's obvious how much they all really love each other. Thank you guys for letting me capture this...i had a great time, enjoy the photos!















What happens when you ask a 4 year old boy to "Show me your muscles"?

The Schmidt Family


This adorable family added a new little one to the crew....meet little Molly, she's a doll! I always look forward to capturing them...and I can't believe how much Makenna changes each time i see her. She's definitely not lacking any personality, which I just love. Now she has a new little sister to play with, who happens to look a lot like her...at least I think :) Thank you guys for another wonderful shoot....this photo of Makenna pointing at the sky makes me laugh every time i see it! Enjoy...it was so great seeing you guys!

The Adams family


WARNING: This is one EXTREMELY FUN famly....and I had a really hard time narrowing down the photos for the blog :) So...I called Dana the day of the shoot and said, "you don't happen to have a red couch we could use for the shoot?" I've been dying to photograph a family on a red couch in a field for over a year now. Well, she didn't have a red couch, but she had just bought an old couch that she was planning on upholstering red :) THAT WILL WORK i said...and boy did they work the couch out :) It's so much fun photographing a family that LOVES having fun and also enjoys getting their pics taken. Speaking of, little Harley was such a ham for the camera and I couldn't get enough of it! THANK YOU GUYS for a FANTASTIC time....we'll definitely have to do this again soon!

The Hacker family


So I might be a little biased since they're family....but are these not two of the most adorable kids you've ever seen or what ?!?!? Just to tell you a little secret (well, maybe not so secret now) I have a little obsession with chunky babies....they are the cutest things on earth! As always, Carter is such a ham, I just love capturing his personality :) It was fun to see how he interacted with his little sister. Well....here they are....we love you guys!

The Tabb fam


We LOVE theses guys! I have had the pleasure of photographing the Tabb girls (and Sarah's senior pics) in the past, but never the whole fam! What a treat, these guys are full of so much joy and zest for life. We really are blessed to know them, not to mention capture their love and special bond as a family :)

The Kennedy siblings


What a fun family! These guys are super sweet for surprising their mom with photos for her birthday! They are all in college, so it took a fair about of orchestrating...but thankfully it worked out and the weather cooperated. I had so much fun
capturing them and their love for each other. Siblings are such a special gift and it's obvious that these guys don't take that for granted. Happy birthday mamma Kennedy!!









Does this one not look like the start of "Hear no, Speak no, See no...." Well, one of the said something funny and they just happened to have this natural reaction. We didn't even notice it till the images were processed :)

The Dilts


Seriously...do you guys really have to move??? The longer I live the more I'm convinced that life really is an interesting journey full of so many different seasons. Nate and I have been so blessed to get to know these guys over the last few years, as well as watch Caroline grow into a bubbly little almost 2 yr. old. Having such wonderful neighbors and friends right next door has been a true gift. We are so sad they will be leaving us this summer, but until then, we'll keep enjoying having them around. It's so easy to get caught up in "tomorrow" and miss the true joy of "today." The next task, the next big goal, the next move, the next life change...etc. Don't get me wrong, having goals is great, however if we're always looking to what's next, we might just miss out on the little nuggets life gives us today :)

On a side note, there's a great house for sale next to the turtles if anyone is in the market for a home. We'll be taking applications-haha!

Ben, Nancy and Baby Chim Chim


It was such a pleasure to work with these guys. Ben is a fellow photographer friend (hermannimages.com). It's always an honor when another photographer asks you to capture their family! His wife Nancy is such a beautiful, glowing mother to be. Their excitement about this season of life is very evident, and I'm sure they will be amazing parents :) Ben likes to refer to the baby as chim chim, which I think is pretty hilarious! Thank you guys so much, and I can't wait to meet baby chim!

The Zimmerman family


What a fantastic family!! I'm pretty sure they define FUN! I had such a wonderful time capturing their joy for life and love for each other. We did everything from play on the swing set, get treats from the ice cream woman, roll and run down a hill, climb over a fence (only to get busted by the owner of the land), and a little bed jumping to top it all off! It's days like this I wish I were 6 years old again. Thank you Zimmerman family, I had such a blast capturing your family.

Another beautiful family! November couldn't have been a better month for adorable families and likewise weather. These guys were full of energy and personality and oh so fun to photograph. Thank you so much for the laughs, goofy faces, and the privilege of capturing it all.

The Elliot's


Oh my goodness....is this the cutest family ever or what?!?!?!? Thank you guys so much for letting me capture your family. I really enjoyed hanging out with you and freezing some moments of your precious love for each other, even the licks between brother and sister :) I look forward to seeing you guys again sometime.


This is one of my all time favorite family photos!!!








This almost makes me cry every time I look at it.




13 years and still so in love.

The Harris family


It's the highest compliment when a client tells their friends and family about us. Our wonderful clients the Carlocks are friends and neighbors with the Harris family. I knew this would be a great session, and it far succeeded my expectations. Some fall days are colder than others, and this was one of those not so warm fall days. However, these guys were troopers and we were even blessed with the most beautiful sunset! The kids had me giggling left and right....and my oh my were they ever a photogenic family! Thank you guys for such a wonderful shoot, I look forward to working with you again sometime :)

The Valdez Family


Stacy and Nate have been friends for over 10 years. She and Juan now live in Mexico City with their two adorable boys, Ian and Diego. They don't make it back home a lot so we took advantage of the nice weather lately to grab some family shots. We hope you guys have a Feliz Navidad and we'll see you soon.

We love you guys!!

Natanda










As you can see, the boys quickly discovered what cattails were :)
