I love this family!  They found us through one of our other portrait clients and I am so glad they did.  They are all as sweet as can be.  You will see below how each little personality came out during their session...I love it!  We did their session on their beautiful property where the weather and lighting couldn't have been any better.  Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to document your precious little family.  I look forward to doing it again in the future. :)  

So sweet is she...

The proud, older brother to his twin siblings...love it!

Peek-a-boo...

I love this one...

...and this one.  :)

I have several reasons for loving this one...can you guess?  $10 itune card if you can guess both of them.  :)

He was on a mission...  :)

They have a family owned nursery that supplies a lot of plants to the stores in this area.  It was amazing to see its size and how absolutley beautiful the poinsettias were!

I have had the opportunity to meet Matt and Deborah through some mutual friends and I just love them.  They are the sweetest couple and I look forward to getting to know them even better in the future.  They were wanting some pictures for their Christmas cards, so we met one evening after they got off work and made it happen...just before the lovely daylight savings time took over. :)  It was wonderful spending time with you guys and I look forward to doing it again in the future.  

I love this one...

Their one and only child, Leo...  :)

He thinks that footballs taste great...  ;)

I love this one, too...

It is hard to believe that this little guy is a one year old.  Early on in his little life he earned the name "King" because of his whopping 9lb entrance into the world.  From there he let mom and dad know who was in charge which allowed him to keep the name of which he was given.  Well, it has been a true honor for me to watch Collin grow and to see Chad and Jennifer develop into amazing parents.  They have been blessed not only with a sweet boy, but with an amazing ability to love and care for this little guy.  I look forward to many more moments and am thankful for the friendship that has developed as a result of taking some pictures.  :)  Love you guys...    

I love this one...and the one above.

Who?  Me?

I'm not going to lie...every time I look at this picture I want to cry...too, too sweet.

Squishy cheeks!

I had to include this picture.  Following Collin's session, Jeremy brought the kiddos over so that we could grab some shots of Gabe and Claire.  We had to put Collin and Claire together for a picture and this is how they responded.  :)

Oh, how we love this family.  We have gotten to know them over the past number of years and know that our lives have been blessed because of it.  We love capturing moments in our friends lives knowing that they will be ones to be cherished for years to come.  What an honor...we love you guys!  

She is so cute...

I love this picture...

This picture makes me smile.  The kiddos had no idea what mom and dad were doing behind them.  On their own, they both gave this expression...talk about timing!

I'm pretty sure that this was the excitement flowing through them the day of their session...woo-hoo!  Three days prior to their session, Joel's planning and organization paid off when he asked Kristen to marry him.  She was surprised by seeing her family and friends afterwards...it couldn't have been better.  It was so cute to watch them in their "newly" engaged state making for beautiful pictures with an amazingly adorable couple.  We are so excited to be a part of their day next June.  I am already seeing a friendship develop and look forward to getting to know the two of them better in the coming year.  Blessings to you guys!    

Wow!!!  The light here was AMAZING!

I have a small obsession with her boots...I love them!
