The Stearn's

So a few weeks ago, Lynette and Bob and the the kids came down for the afternoon.  I think it was one of our last warm days :(  BUT we got some beautiful pictures.  The light was great, and you can see for yourself they are a beautiful family.

FAMILY

Wow, what a Saturday!  I got to hang out with Jill and Jerry's family initially, then later in the day Jill's parents and her brother's family.  I would love to be a little mouse in the corner on Christmas when all these little kiddos get together.  I see a couple plotters, and some innocent followers in this bunch:)   I had a ball hanging out with all the kids (and parents), just wish I had three more hands all with cameras to catch more of them as they were playing out in the field.  I would loved to have spent another hour or two just photographing the kids playing:)  Thanks Van Wyhe's and Pytleski's for letting me be a part of your day.  Wishing you all a blessed upcoming holiday season and a healthy year to come.

Nolan is 2!

I met Nolan and his mom and grandma at the apple orchard on Saturday.  He got to see the "big sheep", play on the straw, and carry the pumpkins.  It was an amazing day out so it turned out to be a beautiful day for pictures.  I had a ton of fun hanging out with Nolan and his family.  Thanks for letting come along on your outing.

Bunny Fun

Wow I think I met the most prepared mom this week.  She had Lilly and Liam's outfits perfectly coordinated.  She brought bubbles and snacks for distraction.  All I had to do was snap the pics :)  What an adorable pair.  Liam has the bluest eyes and Lilly has the sweetest smile.  Thanks guys it was super fun.

Paige and Parker

Gorgeous bride, beautiful dress, handsome groom, amazing church, incredible day!!!  What a blur, my first wedding was great.  Sometimes things just fall in place, I couldn't have picked the more perfect couple to photograph.  Thank you Paige and Parker for letting me share in your beginning.

Baby boys everywhere!!

I had a really fun day yesterday!  I got to photograph some of my co-workers children.  The babies were extremely good models:)  All the siblings were extra helpful.  I had such a good time. Hope the mommies and daddies enjoy the pictures as much as I enjoyed taking them.  Thank you Sara and Tammy for letting me share this time with you and graciously letting me come to your homes.  A special thanks to my Mom, for all the great props, she made most of my fun stuff.

Family

So I decided what's the fun of having a blog if I can't brag about my own family a little too :)  My sister, Tiffany helped us out with our family pictures the other night.  Austin and McKenna were less than thrilled, but they survived and the pictures tuned out really nice.  I'm going to post my favorite, Tiff did a great job with the angle on this one, I love it.

Yesterday I was able to spend some time with a friend from work and her newborn, Wesley.  As you can see from the pictures he is absolutely adorable.  Thanks you Sarah for letting be part of this experience.

Family

Last night I spent some time getting to know Robyn's extended family.  I had a ton of fun with her nieces.  Later in the evening we were able to get the whole family together for some great pictures.  I only heard the guys grumble a little :)  I had a ton of fun.  Thanks Mutzigers' for a fun evening.

Tutu Courture

I think this may be one of the ultimate types of dress-up for little girls. I recently made tutus for my daughter and niece. (Haven't had a chance to catch my niece in hers yet.) Anyway I thought they turned out really adorable; I especially like the long ones.  Thinking about having sessions in which little girls could wear the tutu of her choice and then get to keep one.  If anyone is interested please let me know I can easily customize color and size.  Hair accessories would be available from Peyton's Pretties.

Took McKenna out by the river yesterday for some "snowy" pictures.  It was a little too bright tho, lots of squinting for all of us.  Took a few cute pics, will have to try again on a darker day.

Kusinen Boutique

So my cousin and I have been busy trying on our crafting hat the past few weeks.  The results are pretty cute.  We would like to open a small boutique for handmade baby/children items but aren't ready for that yet.  So the next best thing we found is Etsy.  If you want to view the items they are at www.etsy.com/shop/kusinen.  Kusinen- german for cousin. Lisa also has a blog for her bows http://www.peytons-pretties.blogspot.com/.  Hope everyone enjoys checking everything out.

Today McKenna and I spent the afternoon with Peyton and her mom Lisa.  We made over the hospital room into our very own portrait studio.  While McKenna was a less than a willing model, Peyton strutted her stuff with a couple cute outfits.  Hope everyone enjoys the new pictures of Peyton.
