the FUNchess family

this shoot was so. much. FUN!

i love this family, and if i didnt have such a great one of my own, i would want them to adopt me. so easy with their laughs and love for each other. there was no faking the bond this family has.

love. them.

my bestie from the pacific northwesty

is now here for good! there are not enough words to express how completely happy and in love i am with her (and her family, of course).
i have waited my whole life to shoot them and i was finally given the opportunity.
this was taken the week of the balloon fiesta in their backyard...b.e.a UTIFUL!

we've been friends for 12 years...

...and i was so ready to kill this girl. in fact, i told her if she doesn't stop telling her littles to smile, wipe vavas off their faces or lick their hair into place, i would kick her in the face. honest! despite the hard time she gave me, i think we got some pretty good shots. oy, auntie nessa!

boys...wow!

i had the opportunity to shoot a family with two boys. i have never had the pleasure or challenge of two young chaps. holy everything holy! i have never worked so hard, but had so much fun!

my star

this was our little haidyn's 8-month shoot. i was fortunate enough to shoot her whole family. i seriously LOVE them!

happy thanksgiving all you turkeys!

no apologies...

...otherwise that would take much more time than you have. i have been doing shoots, just have not had the opportunity to post them. it's not it takes a long time to post, it would have editing taken time away from my other patient clients. while i am hardly caught up, i thought i'd at least try and post a few while my editing brain is on a mini hiatus.
