Cotton Picking Season… and I had so much fun in the fields!  Here are a few of my favorites…

Hide & Seek…
  

family…
  

Thanks Kristy!  Connor and Emma were a lot of fun!!!   

It occured to me as I was driving home from the hospital yesterday that Cooper and Miles are both 20s… 20 Months and 20 Hours. 

perfect mouth, perfect nose, perfect fingers and perfect toes…  complete baby perfection.

Welcome to the world, Miles Reed! 

And if you're an expectant Mom and would like to capture your baby's first hours, give me a call!  They're only brand new for a short while.  I'm reminded all the time how quickly they grow.  My first "baby" will be 1o before I know it!  (wow.)

So tiny & new…

More to come! I just couldn't resist sharing this little man with you! 

That's what I was doing as I was choosing favorites of this session to share with you!  I made it to 8 before I realized that I was *really* going to have to narrow it down!  Otherwise, it would take forever for the page to load!    Brandon was shy at first, but he warmed up quickly and we had so much fun playing around the lake…  I was only nervous right at the end… hoping he didn't fall into the water when he was catching "fish" (leaves).    Thanks to Brandon & his parents for a fun Friday afternoon!  And thank you, Teresa for the use of your beautiful back yard!

It seems as though sessions come in bursts… I had a string of weddings this summer, then lots of brother sessions, then some fun Seniors and finally… sweet, sweet newborns.  And Nate was no exception.  He was precious!  This little guy was awake for most of our time together and his sleepiness was apparent in some shots (but I just love all things newborn… sleepy eyes included!)  But he did give up in the end and slept for us.  I wanted to share a few of my favorites…

…because life IS Art. 

Hilary + Bert.  It was their day… and what a beautiful one it was!  So much like the day of Hilary's Bridal Session that I was so excited to share!  I woke up this morning and realized that I could share the Bridals since the wedding day was yesterday! 

I took a peek at the shots from yesterday and will share a few of them for now.  I haven't even looked at Shane's shots and I know that he got some fabulous ones!  I'm so blessed to have him and to be able to work together at something we both love!

A few of my favorite bridals…

And finally a peek at yesterday's beautiful wedding…

Congratulations, Bert & Hilary! 

God gives us so many little blessings in our lives.  These big ole baby smiles are one of them!

Thanks Keely!  I had fun with Parker…  he's just precious!  I hope you enjoy the little sneak peek!   

It's my job to be silly with your children… to let them have gum or suckers (if it's ok with you!  .  The seriousness, the playfulness, the FUN… it's my job to capture it all. 

My job…  I love it!

Brothers
  

Ready, set…  TACKLE!
   

I was looking back through recent sessions and realized that I forgot to share from this one!  We're moving into another busy season, but I don't know how I could have forgotten this one!

Boys.

That probably says it all!  They keep me smiling for sure.  Brett & Carter were so funny… I had a blast.  Here are some of my personal faves…

It's been a while since I've shared Sadie with you… it's hard to believe she's 8½ months old already!  I'm hoping to bribe Savannah and Alex into sitting with her for a Christmas shot soon!  But for now, Sadie was posing in her Halloween Outfit.  (Her shirt reads… "Who needs a costume when you're already a Princess")  ha ha… how true!
