Happy New Year!!!

This year has just flown by! This was by far my busiest and best year with my business. I am so blessed to be able to have a part time job that I love that still allows me to stay home and raise my kiddos. This year my husband and I added a new member to our family, Mr. Tucker James was born this past July and is absolutely perfect!! 

 I had a few goals this past fall and winter so I crammed as many sessions into my schedule as possible, and although I passed my goals, I also realized that it was just a little too much for me with the three kiddos.

•   This year I am setting up a new schedule and I am going to try and stick with it! I will only be scheduling 1-2 Saturdays a month and just a few evenings a month as well. So I am going to have a "booking blitz party" this next week. If there is a certain month that you are interested in, you can message me your name and I will write you down and then when that month approaches we will set an actually date and time. This is an easy way for me to plan out a few months ahead and not try to cram so many in at once. 
• These are the Saturday's I will for sure be offering sessions
• January 30th
• February 27th
• March 19th
• April 23rd
• May 28th
• June 25th
• My prices have changed slightly as well. If you go to the top and click on pricing, you can see all of the sessions I offer and their pricing. 
• This year I have decided to add weddings back into my scheduling. It was something that my husband and I felt was a little too much a few years ago. I have done a few for friends but nothing serious. So this year I decided to start adding them back into my schedule. I will only be scheduling a few this year so if there is any interest please let me know as soon as possible. 

Thank you again for such a wonderful year!! I look forward to creating some more memories this new year!!!

Christmas Mini Sessions

Holy Cow!!! I have been so incredibly busy the past 3 months! The busiest I have ever been, plus we added a new addition to our family this summer so it has been triple the business! I haven't posted a lot, but I had to post some of the CHRISTmas mini sessions I have done the past few weeks. I think in total I have done over 18 in a few weeks, so I am ready for a little down time;) 

Miss Elliot

Miss Elliot kind of scared me a little at first:) She was wide awake and was not letting us take too many pictures at first. But then after eating and momma swaddling her she fell right to sleep and pretty much let me put her in any position! And she was gorgeous which made my job pretty easy:) Congrats Brock and Sarah..she is such a keeper!

She looks soo much like her two big brothers here!!

Sarah...seriously?!!! How can you look so good after just having a baby...not to mention your third one! SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!

Mr. Casyn is ONE!

I cannot believe that Mr. Casyn is one already!!! It just seems like yesterday that we were taking his newborn pictures!!! We had a great session and also had wonderful weather!!

 

I LOVE these top pictures. I think it is so neat to see how they have each changed in a year!

 

 

Meet Mr. Beau

Meet my newest cousin...Beau. Beau is truly a miracle baby!!! This little boy was very sick and in NICU for quite a while...but he is definitely a fighter and we are so happy that he is back home with his mom, dad and proud big sister! I had the greatest honor of taking baby Beau's newborn pictures. It's sessions like these that make my job the best!!! Thanks Amanda and Cork for letting me capture some beautiful memories of your two precious babies!!!

 

Doesn't she look so proud?!!

Beau did not want to be out of mommy's arms so we took this while she sat on the couch and held him...he fell right to sleep!!

He is just perfect!!!!

Miss Mila is 9 Months

We had so much fun using different backdrops and putting her in and on things at this session. Although we got no smiles...she still looks adorable as always!!

I know a lot of photographers take momma's hands out of the picture...and I love that...but at the same time babies are only little for a short length of time and us mommies LOVE that they still need us to hold them up, pick them up and even carry them. Someday Mila will not need her mommy to hold her so I love that this picture represents "real" at this age.

She is so serious here...but soooo gorgeous!!!

I love everything about this picture. I am a farm girl so of course I love the horse and I am so addicted to oshkosh dresses. And look at her cute toes!!!

 

I think she looks like a baby doll here!!!
