Teagan and Tristen were a dream to work with. They are beautiful girls that really enjoyed being in front of the camera. I had no need to pose them, they were turning this way and that and giving me just that right look. Their parents didn’t do too bad either. It made for a fun afternoon of photography.
Emma and Gracie are cuties! Gracie was not so sure about me at first. She didn’t want to be out of arms reach of her mom so we started with Emma. Emma was great! She loved posing and knew just the right look to give me. When it came to Gracie’s turn she quickly decided I could be her friend because I had gum. We were able to capture great images of both girls and even a few together.
Necia and Stan are on the verge of 40 years of marriage. I find that so remarkable and encouraging. They still make each other smile, I think that might be one of their secrets. I was also impressed as they shared with me that their weekend project was to replace the floor in the play house they have on their farm. What a neat memory many children that they touch will have in that play house.
The moment I met Suzanne I knew I liked her. After spending the weekend in Dysart, the fact she was a woman of substance was confirmed over and over again. I know she has been a valuable friend to my brother and sister-in-law. It warms my heart to know that they have that love and support. Her children only further confirmed her character. They were charming, polite and not to mention crazy photogenic!
Hudson is my “nephew’ by default, his mother is one of my closest, dearest friends. I was able to photograph Hudson the day before he was born in his mommy’s tummy and have been anxious to photograph him again. It’s hard to believe that he has already turned 2, and that it took me this long to get a session in. That is what I get for living so far away. It seems like time has been a flash since his birth. I am so glad I get to be in his life in any amount and am looking forward to seeing the man he will become years from now. I am sure he’ll get use to Aunt Heather snapping away the photos as well.
I also had the opportunity to photograph the entire English family in our session. They are a great family. Little Mr. Eli got so tuckered out from his individual session that he couldn’t keep his eyes open for the family photos. He was content to snuggle up to his mama and sleep. He awoke just in enough time to have a few photographs taken with his brothers. I also was able to capture a few of just Erin and John. They just celebrated their tenth anniversary this year. I enjoy seeing a couple that no only takes the job of raising their kids seriously but also cultivating their relationship as well.
The English boys are made up of Drew, Jack & Eli. We had the perfect day to do a photography session. The boys were great to work with. I enjoyed hearing about Drew’s interest in reading and watch him being such a great big brother. Jack is an aspiring soccer player, and will keep you on your toes. Eli loved the grass and you can’t help but fall in love with those baby blue eyes. I enjoyed watching the boys interact with each other. They love each other dearly and got along so well. What a testimony to how their partents are rasing them. I really enjoyed our time together.
I had the honor of photographing the Richardson family. This is an amazing family! Marcy enbodies what I strive to be as a mother. She demonstrates love and compassion with the perfect mix of correction with Miss Lilly. Lilly adores her daddy and lite up at the sight of him. It was a privilege to capture a few moments in this family’s life.
The Mann family was such a fun family to photograph. Little Mann kept me on my toes going from one exciting thing in the park to the next. I am glad we took some time to capture the romance between Brad and Michelle, of course it’s always nice to sneak in a family photograph as well. They are an amazing family and it was my joy to capture them being them.
I am not sure what it is about tutus that makes an already adorable little girl just that much more precious. Lillian was no exception. I love the images we captured with her tutu.
