If you missed this family’s Sneak Peek the other day, please take a look! Here are some more images from their day in the sun! Jason, Missy, Grace, and Macy, thank you so much for spending your afternoon with me! I had a blast! Now, let’s get right to the photos!

Grace and Macy!

Grace is the perfect big sister.

And Macy is the best younger sister!

This garden couldn’t have been a more perfect setting for these two beauties!

One sweet family!

How could you not just love their yellow polka dot sundresses? Oh my goodness!

Bright and sunny, just like their smiles and dispositions!

Macy is quite talented when it comes to blowing bubbles in a garden,

just look at this triple bubble! Amazing!

I think all sisters should have a photo together like this! Favorite!

Another favorite! The sweetness on the right is just, well, sweet!

Hand in hand, these sisters walk through life. Together. Too adorable.

Missy and Jason, I love your smiles! Again, Happy 10th Anniversary!

Love love love the one on the left…and just look at those gorgeous eyes!

Macy brought along her favorite chair from home…I love it!

Despite the heat, humidity, bumble bees and bugs, this fun family rocked their session!

Thank you so much! Can’t wait to show you the rest of your images!

p.s. Hugs + Kisses from Ruby and Fiona! 😉

I just couldn’t wait any longer to post this Sneak Peek of Miss Emily Claire! She’s cute, she’s absolutely adorable, and her parents, Heather and Brian, couldn’t be more proud…or more smitten with her! Here are just a few before I head out the door!

Heather, you are a beautiful mom…so happy for you!

And Brian…you are such a great dad already, just look at the way he holds her!

*chills with this one!*

I absolutely loved watching how these new parents admired the new little one in their lives, I love love love Heather’s expression here, pure wonder and awe.

And meet Emily Claire…she is too precious!

Those little lips, those little fingers, and the eyelashes…I am in love with this one!

More to come soon!

Sneak Peek: Newborn: Emily Claire

Remember this adorable family from last fall? Well, I met up with them recently to celebrate Macy’s 4th birthday and Missy and Jason’s 10th wedding anniversary! This family is blessed with love, bright smiles, and gorgeous sparkling eyes! Jason, Missy, Grace, and Macy rocked their session! It was the definition of a Midwestern summer day…hot, humid, and, oh, did I mention it was hot?! It didn’t seem to phase them one bit! Let’s look at their Sneak Peek!

Hi Grace! Hello Birthday Girl, Macy!

We found lots of pretty flowers to play in!

Macy, you have a beautiful smile!

And, Grace, those eyes! Stunning! A favorite!

Macy, guess who’s smiling back at you? (Ruby says hi! 🙂 )

Another fave.

Happy Anniversary, Jason and Missy! Congratulations!

Missy…this is the one I was telling you about earlier today! Favorite!

One adorably happy family!

Oh…and a fun surprise photo that we planned just for Mom and Dad, right girls? 😉

I love this one!

More to come soon from this summer family session!

I’ve been so excited to see this little guy again! You may remember Colin’s newborn session earlier this year…and his parents’ maternity session…doesn’t time fly? Now he is just over 3 months old! And he keeps getting cuter and cuter! His parents simply adore him, and it’s evident that he is smitten with them as well. Let’s take a look at our afternoon together, shall we? (Catch his Sneak Peek here.)

One of my favorites!

(The tie belongs to Colin’s dad and was worn by his mom in her maternity session!)
Modeling is such hard work 😉

Just look at those eyes! And that smile!

Move over, Michelin baby, Colin is here!

I just love the range of expressions at this age!

We played a little game of Peek-a-boo.

I asked Nick and Kristen if they find themselves staring at Colin all the time…
of course, the answer was yes!

I can’t say I blame them!

Colin thought it would be funny to blow bubbles at me! 🙂

I loooove this one.

awwww!

Another favorite…Happy (early) Father’s Day, Nick! Such a proud daddy here!

Colin’s first time touching the green grass, he didn’t quite know what to think of it!

Playtime in the jungle!

All business…seriously adorable!

Nick, Kristen, and Colin, thank you so, so much for sharing your afternoon with me!

Your baby boy is just precious! Can’t wait to show you the rest of your images! Talk to you soon!

Colin: 3 Months

Despite today’s clouds and rain, I’m about to share a dose of sunshine sure to make everyone smile! It seemed like yesterday when I photographed Colin for his newborn session…and now he is just over 3 months ‘old’! Colin, you are such a cutie!!! Here is your Sneak Peek with more to come very soon!

Ready to skateboard!
