Arlee, Maggie, Madelynne, & Maylee

I'm SO glad the weather cooperated for us!  Maggie and her family were in town for Thanksgiving so we had a small window to get pictures done. :) We had a beautiful afternoon!  Madelynne and Maylee have grown so much since last year!  I enjoyed watching the girls run and play as we walked around downtown.  It was great to see Arlee and Maggie and catch up with them. :)

Here are a few of my favorites from our session!

Chris, Ginny, Emmalyn, & Barret

Brrrrrrrr!  This shoot was COLD.  We got 'er done, though. :) I think it's my fastest shoot to date.  Emmalyn and Barret were awesome and did so well in spite of it being 26 degrees out! :) Chris and Ginny... I just love you two.  So much.  Here's to wonderful holidays - and Chris being done with the police academy soon!

Here is your sneak peek!

Lindsay, Liam, and Simon

It is such an honor to take Lindsay's pictures.  I enjoy watching Liam (and now little brother Simon) grow!  I can't believe Liam is three now!  Their dog Tommy even joined us for a few pictures. :) I was thankful for a beautiful evening, though the temperature started dropping fast toward the end of our shoot.  Here are a few of my favorites from our session. :)

Mason : Senior

This shoot was awesome.  I ventured out to Mason's hometown, having no clue what to expect.  I wasn't familiar with the area, so I hadn't planned the shoot.  Mason's parents had spent an hour and a half scouting locations for us!  They had our route planned, they had a variety of locations picked out, they had visions for what they wanted... I just stepped in and snapped the picture! :) Mason was great to work with - he was willing to hike through hedge apple craziness and walk onto a sketchy bridge. :) I got to meet his cute dog Durango as well as his beautiful and sweet girlfriend Kelsey.  We had fun - and had great weather!

Mason, congrats in advance!  Enjoy your senior year and good luck in your future endeavors!

Craig, Leah, & Kiddos

Has it really been a year since I took Leah and Craig's pictures last fall??  I guess so. :) Caleb, Claire, and Caitlin have all grown so much since then!!  Caleb seems almost as tall as me, Claire was so sweet and loved smiling for the camera, and Caitlin was running around and talking like such a big girl!!  We made a last minute location change thanks to random Kansas rain, but it worked out perfectly.  The kids did great (30-minute mini-sessions are great for little ones :)) and we had a lot of fun!

Here are a few of my favorites from Tuesday:

Angela & Kale : 2 years

Happy cotton anniversary to Angela and Kale!  Apparently it's been a year since I took their first year anniversary pics!  Crazy.  I love Angela's idea of taking a picture with a framed picture from the previous year. We had a gorgeous day... and I tell ya, these two make me laugh more than anyone else on a shoot. :)

Happy Anniversary, you two!  Here are a few of my favorites from your session!

Audra & Kasey : Engaged

I was so excited for this shoot!  Audra is one of Joe's cousins and I was (am) honored that she choose me to do their pictures!  The weather was CRAZY on Friday, so I was worried about Saturday, but it ended up being gorgeous out! :) Audra and Kasey are so cute... and silly.  I love the silliness.  You'll see it a bit below. :) Now I'm even more excited for June 2014!  Congrats you two!
