Our Family

These updated images were much needed for me. The last family portrait that I have of the three of us was over 2 years ago. My heart ached to see my family as they are today; in love and laughter, enjoying life and each other. Thank you baby for your love and support. I wouldn't want to go through this life with anyone else by my side. You are an amazing man and I am so thankful to God for the blessing of having you as my husband and best friend. You are a wonderful father. My heart swells when I see our little one look your way. She is so in love with you, just as I am. Thank you for always being the safe place for us to fall. Je t'aime....

I am a Ballerina!

All I heard last year was how KK wanted to be a ballerina. I made her take tap and told her that if she stayed with it and proved to me that she could see it through, then this year she could take ballet. I can still hear her now, "But Mom, I am a ballerina, NOT a tap dancer!" lol! Well, she kept her end of the bargain, and so did I. And just for the record, I think she makes a beautiful ballerina, or tap dancer, or construction worker. Whatever God intends for her to be, I know she will shine. And I thank Him for trusting us with her for this brief moment. I love you, ballerina girl.

KK turns 5!

Our little girl isn't so little anymore....She will be turning 5 at the end of this month. These are a few shots from our announcement session. Those who are friends of the studio know that we do one of these every year. It is a great way to keep family and friends, who don't get to see her all that often, in touch with how much she has grown and changed. She is really coming into her own and we are so proud that the Lord chose us to be her parents. She has a sweet spirit and is so kind. We love you KK and are blessed to call you ours.

One for fun!

KK was rescued from Pre-K a little early on Friday due to our on location portion of Bridget's session. She didn't waste any time once we got there. Out of the car and into a pose, "Momma! Take a picture of ME!!" Well, I couldn't resist. She has this thing about putting her chin to her shoulder. I know it is just a phase and I try not to correct her all the time. When it passes, I know I will miss it. I love you, KK.

KK at 4 and a half

I have been taking her portraits every six months since she was born. It is great to capture what is important to her at the time and to see how much she has changed. She is growing so quickly, but still wants to be my little girl. It is an amazing gift, to be a part of a little girls life. The dressing up, the make up fetish (she has to put eye shadow on every night when she gets out of the bath!), anything colorful, and of course the 4 year old dilemmas! Who knew preschool could be so stressful!! We love you KK & Happy 1/2 Birthday!!



And one with the boys.....
