2 Princesses and a Prince

This weekend I had the opportunity to shoot some pics for 3 sweet kiddos at their home and park. They were all super good and super photogenic...we even got shots with all 3 looking and smiling! Not an easy feat in my experience! I got to talk a lot of princesses with the girls, SnowWhite and Ariel being the favorites (not a normal conversation for me with 2 boys :-), and the little prince was oh so charming with his toothless grin! Thanks for a great shoot!

Wy Wy is 2!

My little guy turned 2 last week! I am so blessed to be his mommy and thank God for the opportunity daily :-) It's been a quick two years and I pray for many more! Here is his "2 Year Old" shoot. We headed down to the nearest fire hydrant in the park with a fun new sweatshirt and my gracious sister-in-law's neato pedal firetruck for some pics. The hardest park was getting him to pay attention to the pics and not wanting to go and play!

One Big Happy Family!

You might remember this mom from a previous shoot...this time, I was able to shoot the entire family, which was super fun! This was my largest group to date, so it allowed me to be a little more creative with positioning people. This family is GREAT! So fun and friendly, and completely natural and comfortable in front of the camera. Thanks for a fun afternoon everyone!

A Mom and Her 2 Sweet Kiddos!

Yesterday, dodging the rain showers and wind, I had the opportunity to shoot some Christmas photos for this lovely mom and her two sweet kiddos! We met at the park a nearby park, which led for some neat backgrounds, and here are the results! The kids do SO great, especially considering the nasty weather, something we don't usually have to deal with here in AZ!

The Gredlein Family

I've always wanted to try a "family on the bed" shoot, and last Saturday I got my chance. Meet the Gredlein Family...my brother Dan, his lovely wife Jenn, and their 3 bouncing boys, Andre, Myles and Ethan. I thought shooting my two boys was a challenge....until I tried 3 ;-) No, overall they did a really great job and here are the shots to prove it!

The DeZeller Family

So about 8 years ago, I met this funny lady through a mutual friend. We hit it off instantly, and have made it a point to meet for coffee , bagels, or some other yummy treat at least once a month and enjoy the treat as well as each other's company! It's great to have a friend to share and pray with, especially a believer at a little different stage of life, who can look at things with an experienced Christian perspective. Thanks Candi!

Ethan Louis

I became an aunt again in November 30th! Ethan Louis Gredlein joined the world at 11:01 am, meeting his parents Dan and Jenn, and big brothers Andre and Myles. I had the opportunity to take some of him announcement photos today...my first newborn shoot! I rearranged my living room furniture, broke out the baskets and baby blankets, and well, here they are! Congrats Dan, Jenn, Andre, and Myles!!!
