If you know much about me personally, you KNOW that I LOVE the beach.  If I could pack up all of my extended family and move there, I'd do it tomorrow!  We had a great time on the beach in July and captured memories for lots of awesome families!  I truly hope that they had as much fun at their sessions as I did.  I rarely show beach shots in black & white but I couldn't help it with this first shot... I loved the light, the movement in the picture and the expressions and didn't want to throw color in to confuse all of my favorite things going on here...

♥Take lots of pictures... because life is art.

Babies are such a gift ♥ And so are beautiful Mommas in my studio...

I love my job and I really should start a scrapbook of funnies.  Working with kids is seriously the best...  I LOVE it!  I sometimes tell kids to laugh so that I can get genuine smiles.  I only had to ask her once and Burklee threw her head back and I got this.  You'd never even know she was prompted.  Do I see acting in her future?  ;)

The image of childhood.  Love♥

 

This excitement was the real deal... the horse started moving and the smiles got bigger and bigger.

Take lots of pictures...  because life is art.
