One is Fun!!

Turning one is so much fun! I was so excited to see this sweet family again, the last time I saw them their little guy was just a few weeks old. I would say he has grown quite a bit over his first year. I just adore his chunky cheeks, cute little "faux-hawk" and baby blue eyes :) I learned quickly that he LOVES his momma!! I am sure that is something that won't change anytime soon. We were originally planning to meet on the day that we ended up with 10 inches of snow. The day we actually met up was super sunny and warm! Quite the contrast.
Enjoy this beautiful family and their sweet guy!
 
 



As I was editing these pictures I was just cracking up....he has the best expressions!




He handled that chalk so well, so cute to see him scribble before we wrote the official "ONE" on the chalkboard.






 
It was so great to see you guys! You have one cute little dude there :)
I am so glad you thought of me for the pictures of this special
time! Enjoy this next year! One is so fun!!
Hugs!!

Adore This Family :)

I love photographing friends, I am obviously such a firm believer in the importance of photographs. So being able to capture my sweet friends families brings me such joy :) I was so happy we were able to get a date on the calendar with this very busy family. We had a great morning, the kids were AWESOME. Such a sweet family and I am so lucky to call them friends :)
 
 

Seriously, how cute are these three! Love, and they get along so great.



I remember when this beauty was born, I remember being at our friend Becky's baby shower and this darling girl was just a few weeks old and she had on the cutest little baby shoes. Funny the things you remember, and boy does it feel like just yesterday. Now look at her.



The baby of the family, I just want to squeeze him. I know his mommy is lovin' on him all day. How could you not!



The outdoors man, he even moved a dead tree limb out of the path. You can tell he is in his element when he is outdoors.


And the beautiful couple that started it all :)







I am so so so glad we got to do this. I know you were way over-due. *wink wink*
I had the best time with you guys, you are such a wonderful family.
Love ya!

Downtown Fun!

Get ready for a huge post, because I am cuckoo for cocoa puffs over this shoot! Seriously, sooo much fun and I was so in-love with every picture that I had a hard time choosing.
 
 I missed my yearly shoot with this family last year. They had a health scare that PRAISE GOD turned out to be ok. I am so glad that the outcome was good, and so very happy to have them back in front of my camera.
 
They are so much fun and always up for anything (dream clients really!!)....so when they said urban, railroad tracks, steel beams....I knew just were to take them. We just drove until we found something cool and hopped out of the car. It was beyond perfect....take a peek and you will see ;)
 






















Such a fun fun afternoon with you guys! I always love what I am
able to capture when we are together, but this is by far my favorite
shoot of yours :) Just love it!!
Can't wait until next time :)

St. Louis, Baseball and One Cute 3 Year Old

I don't know how it is possible for this little guy to be any cuter, but I swear every year that I see him he is :) Three can sometime be a hard age to photograph, but he was so cooperative and fun! Just a great shoot! I love that we hit some of my favorite spots downtown....and who doesn't love Cardinal fans :)
 







He sure is one lucky little guy, a Construction Worker who was working inside the Stadium stopped and gave him this ball. We all thought about who might of hit that magical ball. I think he loved his new found gift.







Thank you for making my morning so much fun! It was great
exploring downtown with you all and getting to see how much Mr. "C" has grown.
He is such a cute and well behaved little guy.
Go Cards!!!
