FOUR!!!!......

Saturday morning I went over to this family's house for a little playtime. They have tons of windows and that made for some great photos. Four kids at once gave me a run for my money that was for sure. Even though it was a little crazy rest assured mom and dad that we got some GREAT pictures of your kids. Here are a few of my favorites so far.

Check out these eyelashes! And I loved the polka dots!

Oldest sister and let me tell you there is no way you would know she is about to be in only first grade. She is so helpful and mature. And she was a great little model too.

Such a cutie, but not my biggest fan. He was not all that happy with that big black box thing I kept sticking in his face. Little did he know that I got a good picture of him.....more than one actually. ;) I'm really sneaky like that.

And the baby.......hands down the easiest newborn session I've ever done. She just did whatever we wanted and slept through the whole thing. She cried a little, but was pretty content with whatever we wanted to do. Mom requested a bowl picture and I was beyond THRILLED that we were able to get many of them for her. LOVED the red carpet as a background too.
And in their formal dining room they had this awesome antique sofa. I have been dying for someone to have a beautiful sofa and a newborn that I could photograph together.
and one last one that I thought was kindof cute. I enjoyed playing with this one and adding a mood and texture to it.

a tiny little miracle..........

I had the great honor of photographing this beautiful little girl yesterday. Her mom and dad are dear friends of ours from church. Little Miss "E" is quite the fighter. She was born about 10 weeks early. Her original due date is May 21st but she was born back in March. Almost 2 months ago!!
I have been amazed at the strength that her parents and big sister have shown during the whole ordeal and continue to show. I am proud to call them our friends. I am also amazed at the power of God and prayer. This little beauty has had many prayers offered in honor of her and her family and they are being answered!

We had a lot of fun taking pictures yesterday and I just couldn't wait to show these. I had a hard time picking just a few but here are my favorites so far.








And big sister.......she invited me to tea ;)

teeny tiny.....

..........and SWEET! This was a great family! I had a wonderful time with them and their new precious addition. I've said this before and I'll say it again. Newborns are my biggest challenge. The amount of patience it takes to wait for a baby to go to sleep is not something the Lord blessed me with, but I am learning. :) And as you can see good things come to those that wait!!
So for this great family....a sneak peek.
Enjoy your first Easter with little baby "Q". He is such a blessing!

Sweet baby.....

Just wanted to share a few of these from yesterday. I love newborn sessions, but they are a lot of work!! This one was for a good friend too and so she fed me lunch and I took Mia with me to play with her other kid. :) I did learn that taking Mia along is never, ever, ever in a million years an option for clients. Boy, was she a brat. I can't tell you how many shots where her head was in the way. ARRRR!!!
Anyway, these are my favorites so far. Better finish them up!
Have a great weekend.

a new way to waste time.....

Came across something cool to play with

What's your drink?????

I'd better stop dreaming of expensive coffee and go work out!! If I only knew how to make this at home....I've got a espresso machine!!

Also, I wanted to share some pics of my friends Brodie and Lindsey's new baby Bryer. Went to the hospital and took a few for them. She is just BEAUTIFUL!! Can't wait to see her some more:
