Baby Ellison

Matt's brother Jesse had a training in TN this week. His wife, Sarah, and 2 month old daughter, Ellison, came along for the ride. Since it is only 5 hours from here they decided to come for a visit. Well, there was an unexpected turn of events so they left a bit sooner than planned. So sad!
However we did manage to get these shots right before they left. I love the colors!

 


So cute!! I really like "laughing" pictures. They look so happy.




This is my favorite one.

For being outside (in my backyard no less) for about 15 minutes I would say we got some cute ones! Who do you think baby Ellison looks like?? I personally think she looks like a perfect mix.


Bri turns 2!

What an independant little girl!! Like most 2 year olds are right? She was a little nervous around the camera, but we worked with it. She is such a cute little girl!






I have known Bri's parents, especially Ashley, for a long time so it was really fun to have a session with them.






And you have to throw leaves at each other in the Fall right?



Here is one of my favorite ones. It was tricky to get her to smile at the camera. We succeeded though, don't you think?

Beach - 2011

Don't you just love the feeling of your feet in the sand, the waves crashing in, the warm sun?! Isn't the beach great? Would it be funny to say that our daughter cried the whole time we were trying to get this picture. She doesn't like the sand or the waves and I'm sure she doesn't really think the beach is great. One day I am sure!!





She did however love the dolphins!

Whew! What a time I had at this session. We had a lot of fun! Grandma Jan had her grandsons this week, so we got together to have a photo shoot. We did a lot of different things during the session, so there will be quite a few pictures. It was hard to pick! At one point I asked them if they were having fun. This was the reply from the oldest. "I always have fun, but we are having too much fun!" So cute!
Grandma Jan is also the grandma of this sweetie from my last post - Rachel and Hannah














The last two are my favorites. Which ones do you like?



Barnes Brothers

Here is just one for a quick sneak peek. More will be coming!!

Rachel and Hannah

A good friend from the good ole high school days came for a visit today. We went outside to see if we could get a few cute pictures of Hannah. This little girl had her tongue out 90% of the time!! I think we got a few cute ones though.













Here is my favorite. Which one is yours?
