{Family} Jon & Genny

Here's another family you'll probably recognize from their first session and second session. Both of those times, Jon was able to make it very last minute which was awesome. This time, we kept it open and decided to make it work a day that Jon was off. And wouldn't you know it, the weather was fantastic!

We met after school and had about an hour before the sun went down! They decided to go casual with jeans and hoodies this time and I loved it. The colors were bright, everyone was relaxed and it was so much fun! And the late afternoon fall sun? Awesome!

So glad it worked out again! Thank you, friends.

{Family} Gerdi & Sarah

If you've been following this blog for a while, you'll recognize this family! When they were pregnant with their second son, Joseph and then when he was a newborn. Next was two years ago for a Fall mini session and then about a year ago when they were pregnant with their third son, Joshua. The last session I did with them was when Joshua was about three months old; he had major complications when he was born and his life is a miracle to be celebrated! Now, Joshua is almost one and I was honored to once again, photograph these dear friends of ours, their energetic boys and miracle baby.

Of course, we've experienced Daylight Savings here, so things get darker a lot sooner now but I went before school was out and photographed Joshua for a while and then Joseph while Sarah went to pick up Elijah. After a quick change we moved onto family pictures and managed to get them all done just as dusk was hitting.

Thank you, friends, for allowing me the privilege of photographing all of you and capturing Joshua at age one!

{Family} Brandon & Carly

I met up with Brandon, Carly and their kids on one of the last nice days in October before the weather turned into "Fall" weather...you know, all the rain, wind and dark clouds. I was so thankful we were able to get this session in before then!

Their son, Ben, definitely kept me moving and on my toes, while Ava was super laid-back and relaxed through the whole session. Brandon and Carly were totally easy-going too, so it made for a fun and breezy session together.

Thanks for meeting me at Derby Reach - it was great to meet you and chase Ben :)

{Newborn} Coco

Meet Cathleen Charlotte May, the third sweet, petite little girl in Sean and Brianne's family. This is the fourth time I've had the privilege of photographing this family and every time is high energy and fun! Their girls have some definite spunk and it has been so fun watching them grow as a family!

Sean and Bree, congratulations on Coco's arrival; I hope she gives you lots of sleep and peace :)
