The family I hope to have some day...

...would be a lot like this one! I am in awe of this family. Not only are they all beautiful people inside and out, but they really love and care about one another as well! The parents are Russ's aunt and uncle and they truly inspire me. They have done such an amazing job at raising their family. I hope to be as good at raising my kids!!! (So they will still like me when they get older)

And what a fun (and new) location this was! It was a very popular spot. I think we were among at least 3 or 4 other photo sessions taking place that night!

Get a comfy chair because this is a HUGE preview. I just loved so many pictures...they are easy to love when the subjects are as beautiful as these!

{almost 5}

I can't believe it...look who is {almost five}!! The last five years of being a mother have been the greatest. I can't believe my first little baby is growing up so fast! I love him to pieces!

....

Isn't he just a little stud? He's like my little pro model. He knows just what to do when I take his picture! I love it.

See what I mean about a little pro model? Check out his pose and face in the next pic.

Here's a little cheese in this next one.

This is the face he gave me when I asked him to sit down on the bridge again. He said it was SO hard. By the way, apparently this bridge is off limits if you were wondering. It's has been a very popular spot for photos in the fall for photographers, but I later found out it is private property and the owners don't want people taking pictures there anymore. Just a little FYI they asked me to pass on...






Too bad...it is such a beautiful bridge....


This one is because I want to remember that pout. (He was stretching because he was so tired from taking pictures. It is apparently hard work being so handsome!)


And this next one is so I never forget his cute cheesy grin.


Love you, Bennett. Please stop growing up so fast!

Oh my, what a darling!

Not only was he darling, but Tanner was as sweet as they come. He had the cutest little voice and even wanted me to hold his hand as we were walking. He also kept asking his mom for cuddles in his sweet little voice. Lucky, lucky mommy! AND I love the brown eyes and curly blonde hair.

He offered to share his sucker with me. Like I said, sweetest little kid ever!

Strong Family

I love photographing Trey and Brielle...And Tiffany, this was no different than the other times, I was seriously struggling to narrow down the pics of Trey! He is such a little ham and so photogenic. And Brielle's eyes are to die for! They are so gorgeous, as is she. In fact, the whole family is! Well, see for yourself:

This first picture of Trey is what we got when we told him to show us his big eyes!

See what I mean about her eyes?
