The best Father's Day Present!

About a week before fathers day every year I rack my brain to come up with a gift to give my dad... well, my friend K. had the same thought about what to get her husband. A few days before fathers day her daughter suggested that she talk to her "photographer friend" to get some pictures of the girls. It was quite a challenge to find a time where everyone was free and her husband wouldn't be home but thankfully her husband was working late that week and we were able to have a fantastic photo session! Now, can you think of a more perfect gift for fathers day?

My first jumping photos!

This photos reminds me of myself at that age :-)

Disney World

At the beginning of May my husband and I took a trip to Disney World to celebrate our 5 year anniversary (It's coming up in August, but we wanted to at least try for good weather!) I was playing with my new sideshow software today and figured I would start with some of my personal photos. (Disclaimer!! All of these photos were taken with a Canon point and shoot... I figured since I was on vacation I would leave work at home, and only bring around my fun easy camera on my trip.) I hope to be doing more of these slide shows in the future, they are lots of fun!

(Had to remove the slide show because it played music automatically and that is really annoying... I will re-do it and post it back up!)

If you couldn't tell, we had a blast!

Family Time

This past week has been very exciting for my family! My sister cam in town all the way from Utah with her husband and the two loves of my life (you can see them below!) to see a momentous occasion. My little brother Bryan graduated from High School! After raising 5 children my parents are now officially empty nesters (well almost...)! It has been great having almost the whole family together, and spending time with the kids (I almost want to cry thinking that they will be leaving in a few days). While they were here though, I had to get some pictures of the adorable red heads :-)

Okay, I will start with the cuties... Here is Addy!

And my favorite little boy Luke...

Yes, that hair is really that color!

Luke really loves his Pop Pops!

And his binkie...

The Graduate!

After they graduated Addy kept shouting "They did it! They did it!" over and over again... you can see from this picture how much she looks up to her Uncle Bryan.

Uncle Mike and his favorite Neice...

This picture is totally my brother...

My parents are so proud!

The W Family (Finally!)

I know, it's been a LONG time since I have posted anything... This month has been pretty crazy for me. My husband and I celibrated our 5 year anaversery at wonderful Walt Disney World (Best time ever!), then a few weeks later we made a trip down to SC to visit my inlaws and got to see our beautiful neice and nephew (will be posting pics soon!). So now, after almost a month, I am finally getting around to posting my session with the fantastic W family! This family of 6 was so much fun to photograph and I was happy that we got one shot with everyone looking at the camera (dogs can be harder than babies:-)! Here are a few of my favorites...

Everyone looking at the camera...

Everyone having fun!





The Dogs :-)

Saturday- More Senior Photos!

Okay, I officially love photographing high school seniors!! After an amazing senior photo-shoot on Friday, I had the opportunity to photograph another fantastic girl on Saturday. Her mom drove us around downtown Washingotn DC so we got some amazing variety in our photos, and the weather was perfect! Here are a few of my favorites...

High School Senior Photos!

On Friday (my birthday :-) I photographed one of my best friend's little sister, K., for her high school senior photos. We went down to Georgetown in Washington DC which was the perfect choice. Georgetown is full of beautiful homes and bright vibrant colors (I wish I could live there!). We had a wonderful time and K. made it easy by being so gorgeous (I guess it runs in the family)! Thanks for the fun shoot!!

Disclosure

So as many of you know by now, I am a Photographer NOT a writer! I can't spell, and my grammar is definitely not perfect, so please feel free to correct me, because I just can't see my own mistakes. Oh, I fixed my photos so they are a reasonable size now! Next I need to figure out how to center them...
