Out of Towners

I had the opportunity to photograph a beautiful family of 4 that were visiting from out of state. It was a warm morning and the sun was shinning bright but I believe I was able to capture a few they might like! The two adorable girls were afraid of the water but they were so brave to get their pictures taken near it! It was hard to get them to smile, but mom said that they were sleepy...those precious girls sleep in until 10am! I guess thats why they are so beautiful :)

So Stinkin' Cute!

So I had the honor of helping out a friend by taking photos of her daughter for her hopeful modeling career (which by the way I think she will succeed!). Little "C" is 3 years old and has got everything! She is so stinkin cute I just can't stand it! She has a cute chubby face, tanned colored skin, freckles, dimples, big blue eyes, and BEAUTIFUL curly hair! To top it all of she is one of 4 sisters, and all of them look completely different! So we set out and took some photos of little "C". She is such a diva and posed in every which way! We also grabbed some of her older sister "A" because she is just as beautiful! I had so much fun and there were so many pictures that were so perfect. I hope to photograph her again and maybe we can get all 4 sisters in the photos! She has 2 twin younger sisters, man mom has got her hands full and I can't imagine what these gorgeous girls are going to look/be like when they grow up!

Homecoming!

This was my first homecoming event. It wasn't a ship homecoming so I really didn't know what to expect. I was just excited that I would be able to give pictures to a well deserved family of their husband and daddy coming home. I am glad they were not the ones trying to capture all the great moments while trying to visit. We thought daddy was going to march in with the rest of the guys coming home. While we were waiting daddy sneaks up behind and grabs "A" the oldest son! Caught us all off guard so I didn't get the "running to daddy" shot or even the "daddy sneaking up" shot. I was bummed. Then the homecoming was held in a big parking lot where it was nothing but sun at mid-day. They had canopys that of course were red, making everyone underneath them red! "A" was so excited to see his daddy he kept talking and talking and smiling, it was cute. In the last photo he just touched his dads face, which is so cute! This was daddy's first time seeing baby "C" their 3rd baby. That makes the homecoming even more special. They had not seen daddy since Christmas time, so it had been about 8 months. The middle baby, "M", was a little scared and was crying. She is almost 2 and didn't have a nap so it was very overwhelming for her. She started warming up towards the end though and I am sure now she is daddys little girl! I did get a few good shots, that even though they are not technically correct, they are cute! I hope the "B" family loves them and will get to cherish this experience through my photos. I hope that it was less stressful on them to not have to worry about photos.
