I am very excited to be writing and posting about the White Family! Earlier this spring, I had mentioned on my facebook page about donating a photo session in honor of The Olivia Act. Several nominations came in for Jason and Jessica's family and now I know why- they are such a GREAT family and truly deserved this photoshoot! Their family has gone through a lot the last couple of years and continues to give their lives to their beautiful kids! All three of them were awesome and full of so much personality! I hope that shows in their photographs as well!

Meet Peyton! He has a Progressive Degenerative Brain Disease called Metachromatic Leukodystrophy or MLD. He was so excited to get his picture taken that morning and he had such a big smile the entire session! I couldn't have asked for anybody to be more perfect!

We couldn't help but to take the kids to the park near by after the photoshoot to get some candid/lifestyle pictures of the kids playing!

Ellie & Mia

July 20, 2013  •  Leave a Comment

As I am writing this post, I am actually laughing to myself! This family was such a typically family with two little girls that were rambunctious and ready to play-- or at least Ellie was because she could run! So many times, families just want that 'perfect' posed family picture and the kids typically have different plans! I had tons of fun running around (as much as I could...), trying to capture these cute little smiles!

Ellie Turns One

July 19, 2013  •  7 Comments

I can't get over how many 'babies' have been graduating lately from my 'Grow With Me' baby package! I have always looked forward to photographing Ellie every 3 months! She is so sweet and reminds me A LOT of my own daughter, Myla! She hasn't always brought all of her smiles but that was fine with me! Hopefully over this past year, I have captured her own personality, just the way her Mommy & Daddy will remember!

Celebrating Aubrey's First Year

July 10, 2013  •  5 Comments

I just can't believe I have so many 'babies' turning one around the same time! From the first time I ever met Aubrey, she was a dream to photograph. At her newborn session, she arrived sleeping and we couldn't wake her up to eat so we started photographing her and she never woke up or made a peep. She has been my easiest newborn to date and there hasn't been a session she has let me down! Aubrey has always been full of smiles and giggles that are adorable to photograph! Enjoy a few of my favorites over the past year... and then on to her first birthday bash :)
