One year old!

My baby turned one earlier this month! I can hardly believe I've been a mommy for whole year. And lil H is so much fun! He's such a ham and has the most playful, adventurous personality. I heart him more each day. He spent his first birthday at the beach (and also started walking the day before he turned one year!) and then came home and had a Dr. Seuss themed birthday party! He's a loved little boy. Happy birthday Hayden!











Below is my absolute favorite picture!

Miss E

Miss E was my first senior portrait session, and I had so much fun! She brought a bunch of fabulous outfits and accessories, including her gorgeous prom dress and a pair of cowboy boots to commemorate the fact that she's Texas-bound for college next year! Being a girl is so fun when it comes to clothes :o) She also brought out her guitar for some of the pictures - so creative! Here are some favorites from her session.

Beautiful images of a Texas-bound senior coming in the next day or so! And she's oh. so. pretty!!

The land of the free

Happy belated July 4th! We spent the holiday with Mimi, Papa, Aunt Abby, and Uncle Chuck at the lake. We ate ribs, watched my bro and his friend shoot fireworks, enjoyed the boy's new baby pool, and were generally grateful for this amazing country. Hope yours was just as wonderful!

The F Fam

You better sit back with a cup of tea/coffee/wine. This is going to be one image-heavy blog! This session was extra special for me because Mama F has become one of my dear friends this year. We met at a moms' group, a bit sleep deprived and foggy headed, coddling our 7ish week old newbies. We've since exchanged many tips and encouraging words while working through baby schedules, sleep troubles, and food purees. Oh, and did I mention that Miss A is my Hayden's girlfriend? That is, when Daddy allows her to date in about 25 years! Couldn't have survived this year without you, Mama F! And I was honored and blessed to capture your family.























How gorgeous is Miss A?! Daddy better watch out! :o)
