Miss.Jayli Renee's Newborn Session was amazing! She was the perfect little princess! I wish her big brother had wanted to hold her! :) He was still adjusting to a new baby! However I think soon enough, mom wont be able to stop taking pictures of them two! This pretty little princess's disc went in the mail today! Jayli really made these new props look great! I just love newborns! :)

WOW! It is the end of JUNE! Who would of thought! I mean i can remember as a kid, school would start in August and it seemed like FOREVER until Christmas break. When it finally came it never snowed, and waiting on snow was like waiting on pigs to fly! However after Christmas it seemed like school would NEVER end!! I mean seriously when the last day finally came i was amazed & then summer was over in a blink of an eye! Now I'm an adult and im sitting here watching my one year old run around the living room! Grabbing toys and laughing and im thinking to myself where has this year gone! This year has literally been the BEST and the WORST year ever! I lot my grandpa back in April but this month i celebrated my baby girls first birthday! As I was snapping her cake smash session in the studio, I realized that things have changed so much in a year! It's been a whirl wind of weddings, babies and families and im so thankful for all the amazing oppourtunities to capture each clients moments. Time flying by for me makes me realize that i must not be the only one thinking wow! where has 2014 gone? So make sure you hug your kids, kiss your husband and book me for your family portraits! If you dont want to sweat, we have a full a/c running studio!!!

I had absolute joy shooting this sweet sweet newborn! Grayson came into the studio only 5 days new! He is the spitting image of his older brother, however this time around we were able to capture some cute "posed" shots. With Jayden (the older brother) it wasn't going to happen! I'm so happy for this couple! I'm also very thankful to have such wonderful clients! :) It's a true blessing!

What a beautiful life we live, We get to wake day see the sunshine & think about all the amazing things in our life we have! While i know i'm as guilty as the next person about taking for granted. The things in life that are most important. However in all reaity is it not the amazing thing of getting to wake up and thank God for all our blessings. I must say, my amazing clients have stuck with me thru a loing pregnancy and surgery & I'm sooo thankful to have you guys! Photography really started as a fun thing to do with my cousin & it has expanded to an amazing studio in which i get to capture the moments in a families life they want to cherish! I'm very blessed! I'm also SUPER excited to shoot one of my ALL time favorite clients Ms.Rachael. I got to document Mr.Jayden during pregnancy & of course his newborn session!
