A great day!

In an effort to get in as much as I could before it got cold, I organized a multi family group shoot afternoon. It is usually just one family one day so it was a bit of a ‘rush’ in many ways.   The groups were all from my church First Presbyterian and had tween age kids.  I had a blast and hope they did too!   We did some fun family things too but I don’t want to spoil the Christmas cards!!!

 Thanks for hanging out guys!!!

Stunning

A few weeks ago I had two Italian families from Des Moines totally unrelated.    That Italian look is amazing…..

We were standing in a fairly public place when I took this photograph.  I’m impressed that they kept their serious look because there was ALOT of craziness behind me!

Skyler & Colton

When my husband asked what he should give one of his amazing right hand girls for Christmas, I just said ‘me’!     I have photographed these boys twice before so I knew their momma would appreciate the gift!  We finally got together and my jaw dropped when the once little boys got out of the car.  

Thanks guys for getting up early on a Saturday morning to please me and your momma!  Thank you Stephanie for all you do for Bret and the region, you make everything perfect!  I hope this makes up for putting up with him.  :  )  Did I say that? 

Meet Skyler and Colton who with a little coaxing from mom showed us a little skin!  Just wait a few years+ until senior pictures guys!

Double gross!

Cole is all boy.  We were camping this weekend and the boys had fun finding caterpillers for my nephew’s bug box. 

Lesson - Never ride your bike on gravel!  :  )

Charming Chaz

Chaz was hesitant about the whole picture taking thing at first.   By the end, on his camera, he took my picture with his mom and his mom took my picture with him.   He asked me to go to dinner with them, which I couldn’t :  (  .   He made a strong impression on me.  Chaz is a great young man who someday hopes to be a doctor.  His patients will be lucky to know him.  Keep it up Chaz, you are a gem!

Thank you Chaz and Dorothy for making the long trip to see me, I’m so very glad you did!   Dorothy- We did get smiles, I just like this one with his beautiful eyes!
