Graduation Girl

I have known this young woman since she was born.  I used to babysit her!  She is now graduated from High School and asked if I would take her graduation photos.  She is a gorgeous young lady with  a very dynamic personality.  It was a joy to spend an evening taking photos for her.
I had a very hard time picking my favorites, which is why there are so many photos.

Family Friends

My good friend, Stacy, who recently moved away (but not too far, luckily) asked me to take some family photos for her.  It was my pleasure.  Family photos always intimidate me because there is so much to remember and you have to constantly be adjusting settings on your camera.  I fear doing them, but I also love doing them because I feel like I learn something new every time.  Thanks, Stacy!

Baby L

I had the pleasure to photograph another brand new baby girl.  She was only 6 days old and oh so lovely!  We didn't have a lot of time and my two youngest were climbing all over me (literally) while I was photographing, but we were able to get some really sweet photos.
Thank you, Brynn for the pleasure of your company and for letting me practice on your little one.  I now want 10 more babies of my own ;)

Loving the new baby arm fuzz!

Photographing a One Year Old

Now that this little girl is over one year old, life is getting a little bit more predictable and I can get a full night of sleep nearly every night.  This has two effects that totally contradict each other:
1.  I am excited for full use of my brain and body again, which has been working on disrupted sleep and sharing nutrients with another being for over a year now...actually, closer to 2 years if you count being pregnant.
2. I have an almost overwhelming desire to have another baby.
Silly isn't it?
For now, this little feisty child is just like her sisters.  Determined and demanding of my attention.  It's a good thing she's so lovely :)
