See this hot mama? She is the fabulous woman behind Sorellas Elite Fashion on Main St! Make sure, if you haven’t already, to go fan their page on Facebook. While you’re there, I have a new fan page too! Come check me out!

Gosh, this baby is ADORABLE! I want to squish her! Don’t you?!

This one is TOO PRECIOUS!!! Daddy-daughter photos make me smile.

And their boys are SO handsome!

And this one is too funny. I just love it!

Some more from the 1940’s vintage couple session I did this last weekend (previous post is here).  I’ve been looking forward to shooting a vintage themed engagement session for a long time and this couple did not disappoint! They came incredibly well styled and prepared with lots of fun props! Thanks for an amazing session, you guys! I loved every second of it!

I can’t decide if I like these images better in color or in black & white. Gorgeous either way!

Imagine my excitement when this super gorgeous couple came to me and wanted to book a vintage themed couple session. 1940’s. I nearly died. I’ve said before that I wish we’d just bring back the 40’s style… it’s so classic and beautiful. I had so many fun ideas that just came to me with this theme and I had a total ball shooting this session! More to come within the next few days.

The last 2 years I have let her pick out her Halloween costume. Last year she was Batgirl… and I was bummed because I wanted her to pick something girly. I was so excited when she decided she wanted to be a princess this year. Never have I seen a prettier princess!

Just last week my sweet, amazing Grandmother passed away. She lived such a long, wonderful life and died at the age of 91 and had been married to my grandpa for nearly 68 years (love like that is so rare these days, and they were so sweet together). I visited her last fall and forgot to bring my camera, so I didn’t get any photos of her. I want to cry just thinking about it! I, the photographer, didn’t get any photos of our visit. Major fail. Well, I was able to fly to California to go to her funeral and see my Grandpa, and lots of aunts, uncles, and cousins. I was sure to bring the camera along this time. My favorite capture is this photo of my grandpa, my dad, and my baby boy. So sweet. It brings tears to my eyes. I will cherish this photo always.

Well, it’s been forever since I posted on here. I’ve been taking loads of photos though! See, this sweet little guy entered my life and I’m totally in love….

He’s almost 3 months old now! I can’t believe how quickly they grow.

My little girl also just started preschool and I’m a super proud mama.

Just an update to let all my visitors know that I am not currently accepting any new sessions. I am pregnant and due in May. I’m taking this time to relax and enjoy my family and prepare for our new little one! I hope to be back and actively blogging this fall (I know, that’s forever away!). Thanks for dropping by!

This was my first family session… and boy was I nervous! I have a nearly-3-year-old so I know that kids are HARD to photograph and these girls certainly made me work for a little eye contact! I survived and I think we got some really awesome captures!

Doesn’t every mommy cherish a little daddy-daughter moment like this?

It’s not fair that she is so dang gorgeous.
