And if you missed today’s sessions but are still interested in doing one, I will be at the field tomorrow morning. Click the link above for details, then call or email me as soon as possible. Hope to see you there!

He also likes riding his four-wheeler.

This is his sister Madeline. She loves horses.

And being a girly-girl.

These two have all kinds of animals. Like chickens…

…and alpacas! I’ve never had the chance to pet an alpaca before. They are so soft!!

Hanging out in the hammock.

Possibly my fave pic of the day!

Gen before the wave…. and after.

Digging in the sand!

Gen put aside her fear of heights for a few minutes to get some pics on the lifeguard chair. Love the middle one.

“There’s something in the water!” We told her not to worry, it’s only a shark.

One of my favorites!

Braving the rather cold water…

Walking along the shore as the sun began to set…

Loving the colors reflected in the water…

Told you it was a gorgeous one!

You may remember Kayla from her Senior Rep session a while back. Well, this past weekend we got together again so that she could bounce around in this beautiful dress! Thanks again to the Carstos for allowing us to use their really cool in-ground trampoline.

And if you have a prom dress just hanging there in your closet and would like a fun Rock the Frock session of your own, contact me to schedule one!!

Julia was also the first little girl to sit in my new princess chair. It’s pink, and it reclines!

We had so much fun – we picked “flowers”…

…and played in the pool. (Chunky baby legs alert!! I loooooove chunky baby legs!)

And squirted with the hose!

I love this pic of her in my favorite tutu.

Thanks for playing with me, Julia! I hope to see you again soon!

I also love it when my clients are willing to try something a little different, perhaps a bit out of their normal comfort zone. I know many women are self-conscious about their bodies, and even more so when they are pregnant. But I cannot stress enough how beautiful all women are when they are expecting! The bump, the glow, the smiles of anticipation – they all combine to make some lovely maternity portraits! So if you are expecting a new little one, please contact me about documenting this special time in your life.

Now sit back and relax, because this is going to be a long one. I had a heckuva time trying to narrow down my favorites! We started this session in Jessica & Jason’s home, because their bedroom had some lovely window light.

I love, love, love the light in this one! Evening light is the best!

Then we moved out the yard. They hardly ever have traffic coming down their street. Except for when we were out there doing belly shots.

Next we headed down to Beaver Lake. It was evening, there were mosquitoes by the thousands, we all got eaten alive. And the little buggers just laughed at the mere 7% DEET in my bug spray. Next time I’ll have to remember to bring my Deep Woods Off.

I’ve always wanted to do a shot like this is a field. (shhhhhhhh… we did not stay on the trails – don’t tell anybody!!)

I looooooove this next series! It just captures the love and the laughter that make this couple so wonderful. They are going to be such great parents!

Yes, she is. I couldn’t believe it either.

We made a quick trip down another trail to get to the lake, just as the sun was setting behind the trees. I love the vintage-y feel of these next two.

Last shot of the day, with just a hint of pink left in the sky.

Jessica and Jason, thank you so much for a wonderful evening. I wish you an uneventful remainder of your pregnancy, a quick and easy delivery, and a beautiful, healthy baby. I cannot wait to meet your new little one (and to finally find out if it is a boy or a girl!). Keep smiling, keep laughing, keep loving.

Well, now we know that she’s a beautiful baby girl! And she’s got such a sweet disposition. I didn’t hear her cry the whole time I was there! She was also WIDE AWAKE. I didn’t think I would be able to get any sleepy baby shots. She’s actually awake in this first picture, I just happened to catch her mid-blink. Love the watermelon bowl that mom & dad had. I think I might have to keep my eye out for one like it to add to my prop collection.

Yeah, very awake! And doesn’t she have the sweetest little face??

Why do babies want to stay awake when I come to take pictures? Because they know that if they fall asleep we’ll do things like this! LOL

Another one of my beautiful new hats…

Once she was all settled down and sleeping, I was able to get a good shot of the cute swirls in her sweet little head of hair.

And look at those perfect little piggies! You all know I have a soft spot for baby feet!

Thanks for being such a good girl, Vita! I’ll see you in a few months. Be good to your mom and dad, and let them get a little sleep now and then!

And for all of the friends and relatives out there trying to figure out if it’s a boy or a girl, we’ll give you a little hint…

Good luck you guys! I hope you have a quick, easy, and healthy delivery. I can’t wait to meet your sweet little bundle of joy!

If you are a member of the Class of 2011 at North Rose-Wolcott High School, be sure to see Kayla in the next couple of weeks for a great offer on your senior pictures.

I loved the light in this spot. It was just a little patch of grass right beside the creek, but the morning light was just amazing.

I’m one of those people who hates their own freckles, but loves them on everyone else. And I love them even more in black & white.

Here’s Kayla in the little creek. At this point I was safe on dry land, but that would soon change…

At the end of the creek was this beautiful waterfall.

Of course Kayla had no trouble climbing right up there. (Good thing I didn’t try it. That would have been good for a laugh!) Love the texture of the waterfall in the background.

This spot in the creek is right next to that patch of grass I mentioned earlier. Totally magical, it just sent a spotlight down on Kayla. And yes, I was in the water at this point. It was rapidly getting very hot outside, so it actually felt really good!

And here she is, last shot of the day. She didn’t even hesitate when I asked her if she would sit down in the creek. Love her, and can’t wait to do her full senior session in a few months!
