Wes

Here are a few from a mini-session we did for Wes since he just turned the big O-N-E year old. He was so serious, but we still got some really cute expressions and he cracked a smile for a few.

Playing Chase

Ben said he always dreads photo shoots cause they are a nightmare and the kids never behave. Well, despite a rough start I'd like to say that we got some GREAT pics. The benefit to having kids that won't stand still is that you never have the same shot twice. That's a good thing...more poses, more great pics. On top of being a beautiful family, Tiffany has AMAZING style and taste so the wardrobe was awesome. This is what I mean when I ask my clients to wear texture and accessories. You rock, Tiff! And now you will have a baby boy to have fun dressing soon! FUN!!

Slade

Remember the Olsen Field maternity shoot? This is baby Slade. Isn't that a cool name? Slade Seely is destined to be a great baseball player like his Daddy. And of course he'll get his Mama's smarts and beauty. You can tell he's so at home in Tara's arms and he's the spitting image of his Daddy...eyes, mouth, chin. So sweet!

Wiemers Family

Isn't this a beautiful family? So handsome...and the weather and setting sun made for a great shoot! I think the one of them swinging is my favorite...love the motion, fun and warmness with the sun streaming in behind them.

My Kids Play Hard...

was the first thing Julie told me when they piled out of their van. Two minutes later, Heidi had dirt all over her, Jake was playing with stick swords and Julie had cow poo on her pants from picking up one of the kids that had stepped in it. We had a great time playing and chasing kids and still got some shots of all 4 together in the same place at the same time. Nate is a high school football coach so we played some ball too. Jake is a future star...just look at how he cradles that football... :)

I Scream for Ice Cream

I had so much fun watching cute little Micah get all sticky and covered in strawberry ice cream! He has such a fun personality. We sang the theme song to Little Einsteins over and over again...never failed. He clapped and wiggled and tried to sing along. If only every kid I took pictures of had a button that we could push to make them smile like singing to Micah. So glad the ice cream stains all came out!

I love this series! It was hard not to laugh because he was so cute, but heartbroken over his dropped ice cream. Being the great Mama that she is, Lisa scooped up the salvageable remains and off he went again with his ice cream cone.

Treyson

Here are a few more from Treyson's shoot...

This must be his tough-guy face. :)

Cooper

This was by far the easiest infant shoot I've done. He slept the ENTIRE time. No crying, no feedings, just peaceful sleep. We just moved him around from one place to the next and he was out cold. Wanna know the secret? He has a very smart Mama who scheduled his photo shoot right after his Dr.'s appointments that morning. He had his foot pricked and all kinds of people messing with him so he was just plum worn out. Good strategy though. Isn't he a handsome little man!!

Emma

I love this sweet little girl! She has the best personality and loves to smile and babble. The one of her leaning on the branch is one of my new favorites. Her expression is priceless...can't you just hear her squealing? And the one of her with her Daddy...melts my heart. Thanks Kristin for this opportunity. I loved working with your family. Happy Birthday, sweet Emma!
