Baby Jeremiah - a.k.a. her monster

This weekend I had the pleasure of shooting photos for an old friend and the newest addition to her family, Jeremiah. It was so nice to meet this little guy! He's got the sweetest baby blues and he was such a good sport through all the outfit changes and taking away of his pacifier! :-) Here are just a few of my favorites from the day. Jennifer, you're so blessed to have a beautiful family. You're so sweet and it was so much fun looking through the photos. I hope to work with you again!

Kind of his attitude throughout the day...lol

what a proud papa! 

just look at those blues!

I think this one is my favorite  :) 

He's only got eyes for her

the challenge of taking my brother's family xmas pics

I love my brother. SO much. He's one of the few people who could make me pee my pants from laughter. And it's evident he's such a goofball in the following photos. No matter how much we "tried" the man cannot take a serious photo. I guess that's what makes him such a special person to me. He is who he is. And the fact that his beautiful wife wanted just ONE nice photo of her family for their Christmas card STILL didn't deter him from being himself. Below are just some outtakes from their recent shoot. I just couldn't resist showing the world what I had to work with. I'll let Stacey, my brother's lovely wife, debut her "proper" Christmas photos when she's ready...lol

;)

this might have been a nice solo photo

as you can see he brings the goofy out of his little one too..lol

looks like Stacey has just about had it in this one...lol

tree pickin

the clouds in the sky made it so that it would be a perfect day for photos today, so we set out to find our Christmas tree...we went to a local tree lot to check things out, and although we didn't find "the one" at this particular place, I got some pretty cute pics of my little one helping us out
;-)

Hillsborough Engagement - Alexis + Jon, Take 3!

We finally had our last session. We had a beautiful day, no rain clouds in sight! Alexis and Jon worked it, as usual, and I have to say I think these are some of my favorite photos. Ever. Thank you again to Lexi and Jon for being so fun, so sweet and so easy to work with. The next shoot with these two is on the big day next year! Here are just a few of my favorites from the day...

Lexi joked that this little house was just the right size for her tiny little body.... :)

This girl knows how to work the camera... 

one of my favorites 

raaaawwr....work it girl

I love the intimacy of this shot...like I caught them in the act! ;-)

I can't remember what Lexi was doing to get him to relax, but it worked!

I know I'm missing out on some secret here...lol 

Jon, I love the way you look into her eyes, or should I say soul?  

and for a little something extra, here's a slideshow :)
