Spitting Image

Kaleb is the spitting image of his older brother Brinton as a newborn. It’s sort of crazy how closely they look a like.  It will be interesting to see if that continues as Kaleb grows.  Brinton is going to be a great big brother.  He is already a help to his mommy.  He even wanted to get in on the action and have some photographs taken.  This is a great family that Kaleb is blessed to be apart of.  I enjoyed the chance to capture this wonderful  family.

Fully clothed please

Miss Haley wanted nothing to do with being naked!  She was not a happy girl when I would try to get her down to nothing.  I would get her all warm and cozy in a blanket and then try to to slowly take the blanket away and she would almost instantly awake and be upset with me.  We were able to still capture some precious moments.  Some of my favorites is of her sound asleep all cozy in her mommy’s arms at sunset.

Our paths keep crossing

The Adkison family has been in my extended families life one way or another for the last several years.  I originally met them when they moved to my parents hometown.  Erine worked at the church where my dad volunteers.  They only had two little ones then.  I would often enjoy chats with them when I visited my folks.  I happen to be home the weekend that their youngest was born.   Then a few years ago they made a move and Erine ended up being the pastor at  my brothers church.  So our paths still keep crossing.  I enjoy anytime I get to spend with this remarkable family.  Mindy has been wanting me to photograph her family for awhile I am glad that we were able to work out the details to create some great images.

All grown up

I first met Lindsie when she was apart of a youth group that I helped at in college.  I have fond memories of Lindsie as a teenager but she is all grown up now. It’s amazing for me to see the woman she has become.  I had the privilege of photographing her family.  She is now not only the mother of three cuties but an amazing wife as well.  Along with her family I met and photograph her in laws who adore being grandparents to these three adorable kiddos.  It was a beautiful day,  a wonderful session and a great family to photograph.

Another Milestone

John and Kim were married on a beautiful fall day and I was there to capture that major milestone in their life.  I was ecstatic to find out they reached another milestone when they brought their two boys home from Ethiopia and that they sought me out to archive the first family photographs.   These two boys steal your heart the moment you meet them.  John and Kim are so natural at parenting them.  Our session wasn’t without it’s breakdowns but overall it was a great morning on a gorgeous spring day.
