I am still here...

So, my sincerest apologies for the lack of blogging. And, tonight, I had really, really wanted to post about my Cakies who will be turning 4 in a couple days, but I figured I should use my time to catch up (well, catch most of the way up!). Some gorgeous sessions took place the past several weeks, and many of you have seen these on FB...but I am throwing in some others too! If you aren't a fan on FB yet, head on over to here and click on the "Like" button, and you too will see the sneak peeks a tad sooner! :)

On with the pictures...and this is a picture heavy post!

Beautiful Miss D - Senior Pictures
D was a winner of one of the giveaway sessions from earlier in the year. She is a hard working Senior who is involved with her youth group and has grown closer to the Lord. What a sweet girl she was too...thanks for coming all the way here for your session!





Mr. P - 3 years old
Okay, seriously, this little guy wows the camera every session. I love this little guy and I can't wait to meet his little brother this summer! Such a sweet family, and I am so lucky to have them as clients!









The M Family - Giveaway Session Winner

We tried a couple of times to hold this session outdoors, but the weather was frightful...cold, rainy, WINDY! Not fun! So we ended up here (because they were moving and we had to get the session in), and it still just seemed like things were working against us. It isn't outdoors, but the images are still beautiful! They are such a beautiful family. Here is a little snippet from the nomination letter...


"M (the dad) is one of our proud members of the military. He is in the Army getting ready to get deployed for the THIRD time to fight for our freedom. I can not imagine leaving my family to fight for my country but to gear up to get ready to go over there for the third time is just unthinkable to me. To put your life on the line to protect our freedom is the ultimate sacrifice! Then to have to leave your new baby boy & 2 year old who is going to miss her father like crazy is going to be extremely hard for him. Having the beautiful pictures you take for Matt to take with him and for Molly and Aiden to look at everyday to remember there father would be the ultimate gift for them. Not to mention for Christine on those hard nights when she is laying in bed alone to give her something she can cherish and hold onto."


Thanks M for your dedication and love for our country...I was COMPLETELY honored to do this session for your family!








Baby R - Newborn
Sweet, sweet baby. Oh boy, oh boy...how I love the newborns! This little guy was a dream...and his big sister was adorable. She was full of compliments, and my favorite one, "I really like your voice." HA! What a cutie!










Okay...that is it for tonight. Sorry I was short on words...so much has happened in the past month...fun stuff, busy stuff, and it doesn't appear to be stopping any time soon! Cakies pictures will be next to be posted!!!! :)
