I have photographed this family for years. They are another one of my favs (yes, I say that about all of my families b/c everyone is a favorite – I just like to say it b/c it makes me happy). We had a blast hanging out in their COOL outfits from VON MAUR. I will be making a trip to the new location off 135th street soon! Don’t you just love their hats? Well, you guys rocked your session AGAIN! Every year we say how can we beat last years session AND every year we DO! Thank you for another fantastic session. Enjoy a few of my favorites below and a few more HERE in your sneak peek slide show.

taking a break from the photos...

our last shot and they were still HAPPY! I just love these guys!

A few days ago I met up with this family again for some updated family pictures and for some 5 year old pictures for their oldest! We had beautiful weather the evening of our shoot. The kids were having a great time and the results are below! It’s always a pleasure to hang out with your family. Enjoy a few of my favorites below and a few more HERE in your sneak peek slide show.

someone is 5 soon!

more of the family

she gave me this smile the entire session.. I just love her!

he wanted to do everything big sis did...

more family fun!

then we brought out the bubbles...

and had a blast chasing them

we ran until we couldn't run anymore

and last it was mom and dads turn!

Energy. Life. Love. Faith…..what this family is all about! From the moment we stepped out of our cars to the moment they put the three of these little ones back in their car seats there was not a dull moment. I saw a little frustration ever now and then on mom’s face. She was thinking are we really going to get anything with all of this chaos. I never had that moment b/c my job is to chase, run, lay on the ground and capture these little ones doing what they do best… being 2 and 2 and 11 months. Would you want to sit in front of the camera if you were 2 and 2 and 11 months??? Neither would I… so our time is up after a fantastic session of dancing, checking to see if there were any fish in the water, picking flowers, hanging out with mom and dad and anything else you can image little ones doing at a park, the end result is below. See mom, no need to stress, we captured all the goodness of your beautiful little girls, your wonderful hubby and your fabulous self! I enjoyed every moment of our time together and I can’t wait to do it again next year!! Enjoy!

I asked them to hold hands and this is the result....

we tried the sitting... do you think it lasted????

nope... after this shot they were off!

but before I chased the two older ones we managed to keep Hadley on the stone and this is the result... so CUTE

another attempt at a family pic and Bri and Mi were OFF!

another sweet look before she turned to run again...

a little break (one sec) to take a look at the flower she picked

Hadley had to have her turn in the chair too!

isn't daddy a great dancer??

then we checked out the water....

and they were off again when they saw open trail!

they decided to pick some more flowers

and this picture is just breath taking...

daddy decided to join them...

and do a little tossing in the air!

mom and little sis watched the older girls run and play....

another moment of no movement....

a stop at the houses with daddy

and mommy!

then we had fun on the swings!

and the slides... thank you for another great session!

I met this family in Wichita last weekend. She is a friend of my cousin and I was there shooting her family so I booked this family too. Come to find out we knew a lot of the same people from my home town! What a small world we live in. It’s small but great! It was so nice to meet you guys.
