The minute I walked into this family’s home, I could feel the excitement and apprehension about getting photos taken. Soft soulful music was playing throughout the house while everyone was putting the finishes touches on their outfits. The minute I saw the girls’ outfits I was tickled. They were full of color (hello bright pink, blue, brown, mutlicolored tights!) and ready to put on their modeling faces. I love capturing each child individually before doing family shots as this allows them to get to know me and relax a bit in front of the camera. These four had no problems with the camera at all.

All of them had such stories to tell with their eyes, but especially Damali (2nd photo). This was her fierce, supermodel look and I love it.

I love that Dafina & Dinari have the same smile, with the teeth clinched together. What five year old does not do that?

I love sibling shots that are fun and different. Thank you guys for being willing participants on a day when you wanted to get to soccer practice!

I love seeing my clients grow and this gorgeous family is no different. Looking back at their family session last September blows me away. The girls are SO young (and they weren’t too mobile at the time either!). Anna and Margaret have changed even since June when we did their two year session. Thanks again Katie & Joey for letting me crash at your home!

Anthony & I are on our way back to the great state of Oklahoma today. We are both ready to see family, as its been since Christmas. Looks like its going to be HOT in the 90s the entire time.

Just wanted to share a few more images from my session with Anna & Margaret last weekend. Anna on the left, Margaret on the right.

I am currently in Nashville for the weekend visiting friends and taking these sweet girls 2 year pictures. You’ve seen them on this blog a few times since I started my business here, One Year Session, and here. We got up early this morning and headed to the Nashville Zoo. There’s an older part with a home, barn, garden and more. It was the perfect location to allow two very active 2 year olds to run around. I convinced my mom to make a few pettiskirts for this session specifically and the girls had a good time in them. I made a detour to Hobby Lobby yesterday and found parasols that were perfect. The girls loved them!

While in Nashville this past week, I had the opportunity to photograph these beautiful twin boys. They are 5 weeks old and sweet as can be. They have a very proud older brother, Andrew, who loves (may be considered borderline obsessed) the movie Cars. Thank you Bridget for allowing me to come into your home to photograph the boys.

Patrick fell asleep for a few moments.

Katie and her family were more than gracious to let me stay with them while I was in Nashville. Thankfully I had a little time and we did a little holiday family mini session last night (look at the difference a few months make -one year birthday). The mosquitoes almost ate us alive, but everyone were troopers and survived! Katie & Joey – thank you very much for opening your home to me. I love seeing you both and the girls.

I love the look on Anna’s face in this one.  You’ve got to wonder what she is thinking.
