    the sull family

    Because now 3 out of the 4 kids are now in college, we took advantage of D’s graduation party for their mini session (to be used as Christmas cards) for a few pictures of them all together, also while all tan! Wishing them all a great year at school! (both hs and colleges) and if you’re an avid reader like me, check out mom’s online reading community The Stack at The Stack. You won’t be sorry, she has great suggestions and discussions!

    the gryn family

    I was so happy to do an extended family shoot for this crew who were finally together for the first time in almost 2 years! “Miss Andrea” was Timmy’s OT back when he was really little and I have gotten to photograph her wedding (as a second shooter), and both her babies! So this was a super special session for me (hence the total picture overload!). The kids are sooooo adorable and they are all just a fun family and their happiness in being together just shows. Can’t wait for the next shoot I get to do for them!

    mollie turns 10!

    Maybe a dog wasn’t what you were expecting when reading the title of this post, but dogs have birthdays too! And this one was worth celebrating- the big One Oh. Mollie is a super sweet dog and her family loves her tons! Her little sister Jessie is a little more difficult to photograph (she’s still a puppy) but we got a few cute ones of her in the split seconds she sat for. All birthday decor from Art Flowers & Gift Shoppe. Glad the whole family could be there to celebrate Mollie’s birthday! She got lots of treats and pets. Not a bad birthday!web1web1aweb2web3web4web5web6web7web9web10

    the {extended} cowa family

    This is my second time photographing this ENTIRE crew, we missed a year because of Covid- but so happy to get to see them all at once again. I’m sure you’ll recognize parts of the family because I’ve been photographing them for years.  Poor Annie 1. still hates me and 2. still scares the hell out of me (yes, she’s two but she will kill you) but grandma is her favorite person and got some smiles out of her some of the time. Which is way better than what I usually get from her (click the link above if you want to laugh at her fall shoot with me). The rest of the family still likes me- at least i think so- and even though the day wasn’t great weatherwise, we still had a great shoot! Can’t wait to do it again next year!

    isabel’s unprom

    Because Isabel’s school decided not to have a prom, her mom put together a little “unprom/graduation party” for her daughter and some friends. So they could wear their dressy dresses and celebrate anyway! I met them for a few pictures before their party and then they were off for dinner, dancing and lots of “unprom” fun! Glad they were able to celebrate a little.
