For Audrey

What a joy it was to photograph your beautiful family with the new addition of baby brother! Your girls are so sweet and so welcoming and I loved all the questions little Faith asked. It is wonderful to see how much they love their little brother.

Audrey, I so admire the way you love and treasure your little ones. You have always been such an example of that to me. Thank you so much for the opportunity to come to your home to take theses pictures. Asside from a few glitches from little Eli-(sorry Damien!) your family was so co-operative and easy to photograph!

I know you have seen some of these, but there are a few more mixed in now too!



One of my favorites so I put it first!















Can you believe this 10 day old baby lifting his head like this?!


And not just for a second either!

He held it up for quite a while so that I could get his picture! Guess he wanted to be sure I got his good side.











"There ain't no way you're taking this from me again lady!"
He did NOT want to loose that binky.

Precious baby.







Big sister watching from the stairs!





And beautiful biggest sister to end the post.

(Audrey. I am wondering if it is possible to take a bad picture of any of your children?)

Congratulations again. It is wonderful to see how God is building your precious family.

For Jenn

This little guy wanted nothing to do with playing-he just wanted to work! When we wanted him to play in the leaves, he wanted to rake them. When we tried to get him to have a ride in the wagon, he just wanted to pull it! I think 1 day he will be a dedicated, hard working man. Probably like his Daddy who is serving our country over in Iraq.
Thank you Jenn, for allowing me the opportunity to photograph and to play with your little boy, his friend, and big brother. Thank you also for your and your husband's sacrifice for our country. I hope you enjoy the pictures!










He has a cute smile. He looks a little shy in this, but he wasn't at all.




There is something about this one that just makes me smile!


He is having so much fun!

Jenn, this is one of my favorites! He looks so happy and completely trusting you.





What a cute face. And I love his short, little legs in the jeans!


I couldn't decide which I liked better, so here are both.



Playing with different effects on photoshop. I liked the way this one turned out.


Love his eyes!

Sweet!

Bye-Bye!

Abstract Autumn

I am not necessarily a fan of modern art. I don't really understand it. Shapes, colors or nothing at all seemingly randomly thrown together and labeled "art". But I have to admit, I really like to take abstract photos sometimes. I did just that the other day while on an autumn walk. Actually I was scouting out a place to do some pictures for someone. I couldn't stop taking pictures of the patterns of color I found on the pond and stream there. These remind me a bit of what some might consider "modern art" but I really like the way they turned out! Well, if nothing else they are a new take on photos of autumn colors!






















Okay, so this last one isn't so abstract, but I liked it anyway, so here it is.
