Usually its the kids who get Olyn and I laughing, but not this time! The Marsh family was in the studio this week and they had us laughing to the point of tears.

Baby Eden was the runner up in our Cute Baby Contest and was in this week for her six month portraits. She is such a riot– I laughed through her entire session! Its so great I have this job and I get to play with the baby girls that come in– I get my “girly” fix and then go home to my little boys!

I wish Lonnie could get ALL the husbands to think the way he does! He says that any time Shannon wants photos she can get whatever she wants. I *heart* Lonnie! 🙂 We had a fabulous session with them out in Destin playing in the sand on an awesome Spring day… oh some days my job is just torture! 🙂
