What a beautiful family!  I met and quickly became friends with Tammie several months ago for a fun modeling photoshoot with her.  When I was photographing her family, I could feel the strong connection they shared with one another and I couldn't help but shoot away at each and every laughing moment.  Her little boys were cracking me up the whole time.  I hope to some day meet her other babies, but they're not really babies anymore as they are all grown up, and photograph them with Tammie, also.  Take a peek at some of my favorites from their black and white session.  Love them!

Talk about a little princess!  Little Isabella came in for her three year portraits, and she was absolutely adorable!  She LOVES to be a girly girl, dressing up in dresses and tutus, and one cannot forget the important accessories of a princess...glitzy shoes and sparkly jewelry!  I fell in love with Issy because of her sweet personality and the way her eyes light up when you play with her, dancing and spinning around like a little star.

Check out this cutie pie!

Love her!!!

Our first annual food drive turns success with all of your help!!!  This year you could bring in your scary little creatures and sweet princesses in for a 15 minute photoshoot and receive 2-5x7 and 4 Wallets for $25 with the gift of 5 canned food items to be donated to our local food pantry.  Wow,what is ever a huge success! Together we were able to donate over 250 items to our local famiies in need because of your community support.  So, thank you, thank you, thank you to all of you that brought in your sweet little monsters to help us support our local community.  We already can't wait for next year!

We were able to fill several cauldrens of goodies to help our local families because of your help!

Puff the Magic Dragon roaring away!

I'm not usually a big fan of mice, but I think this one is adorable!!

Hilarious!

Jaime, Patsy and I dressed up for Halloween too!  We had so much fun playing with the kids all day and seeing their adorable little faces and costumes.  Thank you again for coming this year and we can't wait to see you next year!

Check out our video with all of our scary little Halloween creatures!

Baby Ryann is not a baby anymore!  Ryann was just 3 months old the very first time I met her...even then she had the sweetest smile with her full chubby cheeks and big beautiful eyes.  She's still that beautiful little girl at three, she's just gotten a lot bigger overnight it seems!

Ryann moved to Davenport last year and we were so bummed!  But I was lucky enough to capture her this fall at the beautiful VanderVeer Park in Davenport, Iowa. It seems like we've been traveling that direction quite a bit lately and over the next couple of weeks!  Love the change of scenery, plus an added bonus is I get to see my sweet niece and nephew that also live up there!  

Check out some of our favs from Ryann's fall session.

Love those big beautiful eyes!

Playing in the leaves...isn't she so sweet!

Dancin' away...

I love the look of wonder and imagination in her eyes here as she sat and talked with her mommy on the playground bridge.

 

She's just a lil' dollie!
