Nothing is more personal than doing your portraits at your home, or in Jessica and Josh’s case– at her parents home. We had such a blast wandering around the property with them! Oh, and her brothers, little sister and mom, too! It was so funny to watch how they reacted to their audience! Good thing they are a close family! I am so excited for their March wedding at Pebble Hill! If their engagements are any indication, their wedding is going to be awesome!

“Sassy” does not even begin to describe Baby Emma. This little “piglet”, as mommy and daddy call her, has a personality the size of Texas. Most newborns have a teeny little cry, but Miss Emma can compete with the best of them when it comes to volume! She is very clear on the things she likes and doesn’t like and makes sure the world knows about it. But as soon as she nods off to sleep, her adorable little face makes you believe she is always a perfect little angel!

I think most people would think we are a bit strange if we asked them to wear a tutu and come hiking in the woods with us for a portrait, but Elizabeth just asked when and where. She was an absolutely amazing model and really helped us bring a vision we had to reality. I am so thankful for her open-mindedness and her patience as she had to hold so many difficult poses as we tweaked and modified things. We are really enjoying these editorial shoots and are finding new inspiration to stretch our creativity and art, so you are going to see a lot more of these popping up on the blog!

Most photographers think I am crazy, but I LOVE doing big family portraits! Yes, it can be wild and crazy, but I think that is half the fun! The other half is capturing a portrait of everyone together and knowing that it will be treasured by so many. The Millenders were especially fun– they are such a lighthearted, laid back group– our job was easy! The biggest win for me was drawing the shy Miss S out and getting her smiles. At the end of the session I asked if she wanted to sit in daddy’s lap or mommy’s lap and she told me, “I want to sit with YOU!” 🙂 It absolutely made my afternoon!

I absolutely positively hate it when I can’t be at a session! This one was especially sad since it was Reese’s last baby plan session and the reason I couldn’t be there was that I was stuck in the dentist chair! ICK! So Olyn got to have all the fun with Little Miss Reese who is now 1 and a wild woman! LOL!
