I have known the momma of this beauty since she was a baby because our mom's were good friends growing up. I just love that we are all having babies and families of our own. It was so fun meeting her husband and little girl since I hadn't seen her in probably 15 years! How sweet is Miss {M}? We missed the newborn stage due to a bad case of baby acne, but catching her at 2 months was still so sweet and we were able to capture smiles too!




It's always fun when you get to do a shoot for someone you know. This is our 4k teacher and her family. I say "our" because she was both my oldest's teacher (Brianna who is now going into 3rd grade) and my middle daughter, Kaylee. I pray Avery gets her in two years too! Both just absolutely adored her! She was able to get to know my kiddos and it was fun being able to hang out with her family for a night. Her kids were so amazing and they just love each other so much; it's so great to see! I'm sure you can see the love just oozing from these photos! :)













As I get older, (though I feel no older!) it's so amazing to see friends from childhood or high school and see how they have grown with their own families. This family's momma and I went to high school together and I have been able to photograph her and her family since she was pregnant with their first! They are such a fun family and I loved seeing these kids run and play and for their personalities to shine through the photos!











How adorable are these two siblings? I don't think I have ever seen such a bond between a brother and sister at this young of age before! Little brother wanted to be wherever big sis was and listened to her SO well! It was the cutest thing watching them run around and laugh together. I pray they always keep this special relationship that they have!





I have had the pleasure of being able to photograph this gorgeous girl since she was 6 weeks old. She is just the sweetest thing and just warms my heart whenever I see her. I'm sad that the year is over and I won't be able to see her as often :( She was pretty excited to be turning 1 and even showed us ONE with her fingers (to be fair, I don't think she was doing it on purpose, but it's still super adorable!)




This one cracks me up!
