{ Barrett family }

There was much fun to be had with this family!   I was cracking up at this lil' girl and her frilly dress playing in the freshly plowed field.   You could tell she has all brothers..... I turned around at one point just in time to see her flipping dirt with her pretty strappy sandals and freshly painted toes.  "My toes are diggin' " she says!  :)   

Thanks again, Tresa! It was so much fun hangin' with you guys for a bit! And, tell Bob he better delete those "BEHIND the scenes" pics he took! ;) haha!

{ Diva }

I'm so behind on my blogging.  Must. Catch. Up!  Luckily I have sweet, understanding clients who don't send me hate mail.  :)

Diva.  That's the word that comes to mind for this session.  OOOh how I l.o.v.e this girl.  She was such a poser and she really hammed up the camera.   She's beautiful, wouldn't you agree?   She's 5 now.  No longer 4.  The big F.I.V.E. and she is going to still be rocking the camera when she's 16, 25, and 40.  

(now you're seeing why I think DIVA, right? )

*TAP TAP TAP* Is this thing on?? My ticker says I have visitors, but no one wants to talk to me! SAD FACE. Please don't be shy, the difference between a stalker and a friend is a quick hello! :) Leave me a comment, let me know you stopped by!

{ Mini sneak peek }

I'm sorry, I tried, I tried my hardest to get the sneak peeks up for those who are patiently waiting, but I just can't manage to keep these tired ole' eyes open for one more second.  I'm off to bed, but in the meantime.... here's just the beginning of Trin's preview.  (To be continued..... )   :)  'Night all!

 

{ Happy Birthday Keltsee }

Miss Keltsee is turning 16, and in celebration her darling mom thought it would be fun to gather a couple friends together, doll them up and have their makeup done by the talented Erica, from Babydoll Makeup Artistry, and get some fun shots of these three BFF's! :)

Still working on this sneak peek for these ladies, but I know how excited they are to see their pics.  So, here you go ladies, a tiny preview of our day yesterday.  (more to come!!) 

A few of the birthday girl...

Check back in a day or two ladies.... I'll get a few more posted for you to look at while you wait for your disk! MUAH! Love you all!

{ Lions and lambs }

Yesterday started out as a lion, at least in my neck of the woods... thunder, lightning, pouring rain.  I have to admit, a bit of panic set in because I've been looking forward to this session for weeks!! But, Mother Nature took pity on me, sent in the "lamb" and settled down, and we got some beautiful images for this family!     (And the children may have found a "lion" souvenir to take home with them!)
































Don't be shy, leave a note for this family, tell them you stopped by,  
and how stinkin' cute they are! :)

{ New friends }

The very very best part of my job is meeting new friends.  I have been so blessed with the funnest, most darling clients who each become my friends.  This family is no different.   :)


Here is the first of the fun pics I'm working on, but I wanted to give momma a tiny peek at the outcome of our short time together!   (Tiff- I hope I am on the right track and that I'm close to what you had in mind.)

 





















Thanks again, Tiffiny. It was so fun meeting you and your beautiful family!

This photo of miss Lucy was submitted to the "i heart faces" photo challenge.  This week's theme... "HEY GIRL".   Wish us luck!!  :)

{ Lucy }

I just realized it's been exactly one month since my last post. Totally unacceptable. HA! I promise to do better. I didn't realize how many loyal followers I had until you all start asking if I'm alive. Yep. I'm alive. Barely. April was a rough month, but it's now MAY and I've caught my second wind.
 Speaking of May, (Or Mae rather) Here's my favorite niece, Lucy Mae. You've seen her before, but I'm pretty sure you don't mind seeing her again.

 Honestly, does this first pic make you smile? Be honest. It does, huh. :) Love her. She decided to plop down and rub the dirt on her legs. (Mind you, she's in her beautiful new Easter dress.) I think the look on her face says "What are YOU looking at?"

Yep. Pretty much A.D.O.R.E her.

 

What's your vote? Am I justified in spoiling her? I think so.
