Each year we get Addie, our daughter, and three of her friends, all of which have their birthdays around the same time, and do a fun photo session. This year, with each of the girls turning 2, was nothing short of an adventure. We had fingers in noses, chicken nuggets in hands, and skittles abound. Imagine trying to get each girl to stay in place AND control lighting...all-in-all we captured some wonderful memories!

It was a pleasure working with the Smith family during their multi-session maternity/newborn package (click here for package information). The kids were great, braving some cold weather, as were the parents, who wanted something a bit more than the typical "traditional" photography when it came to documenting their new arrival. Of course the highlight of it all was meeting baby Cruz. He let us capture a few images of those captivating eyes before he drifted off the dreamland. It is going to be fun watching him grow..

This senior has one of the most unique names I've heard: Meet Tazalate Peals, a graduating senior from Gosnell High School. Tazalate was somewhat shy at first, but warmed up in the summer heat and came alive with some poses, most of which were nothing more that her own style, standing around talking, and me saying, "don't move!" I think she walked away from the session with the realization that she rocked it out. Congratulations Tazalate, and good luck!
