A Double Dose of Awesome Families!

Ok, I got 2 adorable families coming at ya right now :)

First, I am going to start with a family that I just love! This is another awesome family that I have had to pleasure of getting to know because of my girls school. Two of their 3 girls are in the same grade and are good buddies with my Emily and Riley. They are the sweetest people! Holly (aka Mom) is the kind of Mom I strive to be. She is always so patient, and so dedicated to her children. She is an amazing cook and she is now a Food Blogger (yeah Holly!). I have had the honor of photographing their family a few times now. I absolutely love it and I am in LOVE at what we got this Fall. One of my favorite shoots ever!

How can you not love pictures that feature this little cutie! The only boy of the family and he is sooooo darn cute!!


Love these girls! So many beautiful blond kids in one family.


And of course they are gorgeous kids, look at their parents :)



Ok, favorite sibling picture...probably ever! I don't' know what it is about this picture but I absolutely love it!











Up next is one of my favorite client families. I so enjoy working with them because it is just easy. They totally get the "Life Style" photography thing and they let me just do my thing. Which is to capture their family as they are...being who they are.

This session was very important because they had Grandparents visiting from South Africa. They have not been here to visit since little Oliver was a baby. It was great to see them again (I was lucky enough to photograph them together at their last trip).

This time we took a walk through the woods of their neighborhood and I enjoyed every second.








How I love parents that are in love. They are so nice and you can tell they clearly love every second with their grand kids.





"D" & "L" Families,
Thank you sooo much for including me in your Fall plans.
I love working with both of your families. People like you are
why I love to do what I do. Thanks for making my job
easy! Your the best!
Happy Thanksgiving!!

Let's Celebrate! Kayleigh is One!

Ahh, one year old shoots are the BEST! I love this age and I love how their little personalities have just exploded. They are still a baby but working their way into "Toddler-hood". I really love it when my one year clients get their little cuties cakes. They are some of my favorite pictures of the whole shoot.

Little Kayleigh is just the cutes...look at those big blue eyes :) Here she is in all her "one year" glory.





Be still my heart :)


This face cracks me up, I think she was like "Lady, can you get out of my face with that camera please" haha!



And it is cake time!!


She is offering her Daddy a bite, how nice of her. I wonder why he didn't take her up on it ;)




Happy Birthday Sweet Girl,
It was so wonderful to document this fantastic
time in your life for your Mommy & Daddy.
I hope your party is a blast!
Hugs,
Lisa

Sweet sweet Baby

This is another sweet baby that I get the pleasure of documenting all the amazing milestones of her first year. I LOVE my "One Year" package clients, what is better than watching sweet little babies grow during the first year. And boy do they grow....at like lighting fast speeds. I am sure this little one already looks huge to her mommy and daddy compared to these pictures.

I loved my time with her and her parents, they are completely smitten and how could they not be. Isn't she beautiful! She was the best baby....wide awake and taking it all in, then she conked out at the end. A perfect session. 

Her expression in this first one cracks me up, she looks like she is thinking "oh, this photo stuff is bor-ING! :)


I love some baby burritos!







Ahhh, piggy toes (heart)




Thank you guys so much for asking me to document your daughters
first year. She is just so precious and I am so excited to watch her grow. Her
3 month session is going to be here before we know it. Can't wait!!
Happy Holidays!

Kim's Family is Up....

I gotta tell you, I was so nervous for this shoot. You see Kim is also a Photographer and the amazing talent behind KSNeff Photography. Photographing other Photographers really makes you bring your A Game :)  Of course it was awesome...because Kimmie is awesome. Her hubby Andy is awesome...liked him immediately. And they make some gorgeous kiddos :)

Kim is a HUGE help to Kelly and I in our Wedding business. She comes along as a 3rd shooter to our very large Weddings....she also works our "out of the box" Photobooth (more on that coming soon). She also fills in when one of us is unable to be there. We don't know what we would do without her. We look forward to working with her a lot more in 2012.

Ok....here is a glimpse at some of my favorites during our shoot. The best part...was going to dinner with them afterwards! So enjoyed ending our shoot over some good Greek food :)



Loved Kim's color combo.


Ok, and let's just go ahead and state the obvious. Kim girl, your gorgeous!! She had her make up done by the same AWESOME Make-Up Artist who did my make up for my family pictures. Kat Hinkle....you rock girl!










Kim, Andy and Kids,
It was so honored to be your Photographer this year. I know
that you have access to some AMAZING talent and to have been choosen
is a huge compliment. I truly enjoyed my time working with you guys.
Kim, thank you for your friendship! I adore you!
Hugs!
