Gary, Elaine, Grant, Brice & Evan

I have such a soft spot in my heart for families loaded up with boys! These guys were so cool, and they woke up super early on a Sunday to meet with me.

The feet photo – one of my most popular requests! I love it!

I mentioned they woke up early for their appointment- I had my hand hovered over this photo to “fix” this milk mustache, but I couldn’t do it. It’s perfect! It’s life! He’s so handsome!

While I was taking these shots, Evan was reluctant to stand up front by himself. I explained that I was going to take a picture of him with the rest of the family blurry in the background, with the hopes that talking him through “my vision” would make everything more easy and fun.

It turned out to be pretty stressful for him, and he said he didn’t “want to be blurry”! So sweet…

So then he and Brice used their Super Brother powers on me to make sure I didn’t make Evan blurry… or maybe Brice was doing his show tune routine. I’m not sure…:)

Taking time for some fun Gary and Elaine lovey, schmoopie pictures, but you have to pay attention to what’s going on behind them (I LOVE this!)

First you see the scheming…

Bill, Merissa, Tommy, Robbie, Pearl & Duque

Merissa is my niece Luci’s ballet teacher. She has the sweetest family, and is so easy going! We had a great time running around downtown… in her puffy cloud ballet skirt! It rocked!!

Pearl.

Could you just squeeze her! I LOVE her name!!

My favorite family pictures are the unexpected ones where everyone is sort of doing their own thing, and not everyone is looking. You really start to get a sense of their personality’s that way.

Now for some fun shots of Merissa, ballet teacher extraordinaire…

These are her toe shoes, hanging on a laundry line with the tire swing in the back. I love the contrast!

Nicole - Danie. Oh my. Just wow. wow. wow. wow.

Melissa, Tate, Zak & Hannah

Going through this family’s pictures made me smile all over again! There were so many fun pictures to choose from, and, they were the first competitors in the Thumb Wrestling Championship. Zak took the title, but I feared the photos of his “Victory Dance” might make him hate me! That is, unless fluttering around like Tinkerbell is the rage on the teenage boy circuit… I guess I just never know these things… (sorry Zak!)

I met Sarah very quickly when I was in Ohio, but man, I’d love to talk with her all day.

She’s expecting. She’s gorgeous. She is so incredibly nice! I cannot wait to meet that little baby in the fall!
