..."B" & "A" {Children's Portraits}...

What a FUN morning I had with this brother/sister duo! Who needs coffee when you've got a 2- year-old and an oh so close to four- year-old to chase after!! We had a great time running, climbing, splashing puddles, rolling in wet grass....you name it, we did it! Of course, in between all of that, we were able to capture some beautiful portraits, too. Whenever I look at this picture I have to laugh....I can still hear their cute little giggles!!

Mr. "B" is so, so handsome! And he did an outstanding job showing me ALL of his pretty teeth!

I LOVE this portrait if Miss "A"! Can you say "attitude"!?! No, not really! She is so full of hugs and kisses...what a little love-bug!

These two are just beautiful. I had such a great time!

Thanks, guys!! I had so much fun playing in the park with you! I'm so happy you let me chase you around with that silly camera in hand! Enjoy!

...C+J {Engagement}...

I had a BLAST working with this adorable couple last night! They have entrusted me with their engagement and wedding portraits, and for that, I am truly honored. We spent the evening exploring the great downtown area of Lewiston, and even took an impromptu trip to the future grooms grandparents house (those photos to come shortly!).

I LOVE these rockin' shoes!! As a self-proclaimed "shoe addict" (why a stay-at-home mom needs over 80 pairs of shoes is a question my husband has been trying to figure out for years!) I had a great time playing this picture up!

You guys are THE CUTEST couple! Love it!

When I downloaded this picture, I literally said "WOW" out loud! You are absolutely STUNNING, "C"!!

These few photos are just the tip of the iceberg! But I know I have you all anxiously awaiting your sneak peek! Enjoy these first few....there are many, many more to come!!

...How About Some T-Ball Action!...

It has been several years since I've attended a t-ball game...and I forgot how FUN they are to watch! I had a great time watching this little guy! He admitted after the game he "may" have done a few poses for the camera...like his AWESOME slide into home plate!

Great job, little "R"! Thanks for inviting me to your game! I had a blast!

...Sisters...

Let me just tell you, I am LOVIN' how this session is turning out! I have only processed the first 1/4 of the pictures I took and am thrilled with the results so far....I really hope these little ones' mommy loves them as much!
Meet Princess "E" and Princess "G" (they really are princesses, just ask them!) We had a blast at the "exploring park" this beautiful, sunny morning and I knew the second I laid eyes on them it would be impossible not to get anything but fantastic images of them!
Three year old "E" is absolutely stunning with her blonde curls and sparkling blue eyes. She did such a great job!
Two year old Miss "G" is just as beautiful...her green eyes are so, so bright! LOVE IT! Here is her "serious" look....

and her sweet little grin!

Thank you, so much "J" family for making the trip to the valley. I hope these images made your drive worth it! Enjoy the pictures..........I hope to be able to capture images of the new baby in the fall!!

...My Own {Part Two}...

Here is my youngest, 19-month-old Mr. "M". Unlike his older two brothers, he L-O-V-E-S to have his picture taken!! He is such a little ham in front of the camera; posing and giving me genuine smiles anytime I ask. Of course, he's had a lot of practice! He probably has well over 1,000 images on my hard-drive since the day he was born!

...My Own...

Meet Mr. "C". He is the second of my three wonderful boys. He is also the one who dislikes having his picture taken the most. A not so good attitude to have with a mama who is a photographer!! He's getting better, though. On this day, he said I could take "just three pictures, mama". Of course, in two of the three he had his eyes squeezed shut! So, here is the best of the day for my love-bug "C".

...The "W" Family...

One of the things I love about doing photography is the opportunity to meet such great people. I love meeting new families and watching the interaction between them. Each individual person brings such great personality to the mix, making for some perfect pictures! The "W" family are just such a family. I had a wonderful time getting to know them and photographing them. "Papa" kept me on my toes and had me laughing and smiling through the whole session! What a great time!

Thank you for such a great evening! You are a truly beautiful family. I hope you enjoy your sneak peek!!
