I just adore this family! We go way, way, way back this crew and I! Back to the very beginning of Clark and Ashlee’s love story. I photographed them for their engagement sitting before they were even married, and through the first years of both their sons, the most adorable boys you’ve ever met-Cohen and Brooks. And, now, with the addition of a sweet baby girl, Miss Piper, their little family couldn’t be more perfect! Such a beautiful blessing and such a joy for me to be asked to share in capturing her first year just like I did for her big brothers. She was an absolute angel at the session yesterday. Big brothers, Mom and Dad are all completely in love with her. Who can blame them? She’s perfect! Congratulations to all of you! So happy for your newest addition. I love her already! 🙂 

God provided another beautiful day for the last of the 2014 Mini Sessions this past weekend. Lots of beautiful families, gorgeous smiles, big family hugs, and memories were captured. Enjoy this little sneak peek and more to come! 🙂 Thanks for sharing your  families with me, everyone! 

A big welcome to Master Benjamin! This sweet family are my neighbors, and I was so honored to be asked to photograph baby boy #3 in their family. These boys couldn’t be any sweeter or cuter. Such a joy to get to get to know them better and enjoy these first few days together. So very exciting! And, Benjamin was an angel the entire session. What a sweetie! Thank you, Kari and John for sharing your boys with me. Can’t wait to watch him grow over the years! Someday, he will be as big as that bear! 😉 What a blessing, congratulations!

It is always such a privilege to be asked into a home of a client and share in their first few days with their newest member of the family. Spending the day with this family was no exception. Welcome little Evan! What a joy you are. You are so very loved, little guy. It’s evident from the time I spent with your family how very much they adore you! Beautiful session, beautiful session, beautiful baby boy! Congratulations! 

Sweet, adorable, big ol eyes, squeezy little boy! This was Hobbs a year ago and then today! His eyes are definitely his strong feature! Love this adorable family and cannot believe our time toethget has come to an end. This is the 2nd little boy in this family where I’ve been privileged to share in their first year. What a joy! Happy 1st birthday, Hobbs! Thanks, Sarah and Craig for sharing your boys with me. They are so sweet and such fun! Lots more fun photos to come! Enjoy!  Pretty sure this next one is him saying, “Come on, Mrs.Julie, stop pointing that camera at me! I want to play and explore! 🙂 Enough already!” haha…

This is a perfect example of what can happen at a photo session when you have two parents who are completely relaxed and trust in our ability to get the outcome they desire. Sweet Grayson was a bit squirmy during the session, but Mom and Dad never stressed out. They just continued to play with him and engage him and I ended up with some beautiful and relaxed images that I think convey how much this sweet family loves each other and adore their precious boy! What a treat! Thanks for sharing your family with me. Lots of more sweet images to come! Enjoy! 🙂

I cannot believe how much this sweet boy has grown in the last year! From a little bit to such a cutie with his little sideways smile! So glad he brought along Mom and Dad and big sister for some photos for his one year session, too. Happy 1st birthday to you, Wills! It’s been a great first year! Thanks for sharing it with me! 

Another fun day of Mini Sessions on Sunday with lots of sweet and fun families! Enjoy the cuteness! 🙂

I sure do love my sweet family and when they purchased their new home here last Fall, I knew almost immediately that I wanted to use the location for some sessions. We had a COLD afternoon, but it sure was beautiful for our Mini Sessions out in Tipton County last weekend. A huge thanks to all who drove out to the country to see us and also to my precious family for their help and work in getting things ready. It was a fun day! Can’t wait to do it again soon! Enjoy this little sneak peek!

Always love photographing this beauty every Fall! She brings smiles and fun every single time! Love our “yearly” dates!
